Messrs. Cunningham and Heath, Pearl Street, have a splendid assortment of the most improved English bicycles, and they offer rare chances of learning to ride the vehicle in a large room used for that purpose only. Their room is a capital place of exercise also for those who think of entering into the bicycling club or races...

Other suggestions might perhaps be offered, but even if these few are attended to, we think a great deal of good will be done. If we are to have new recitation-rooms, they ought to be made with all the improvements that the art of building has attained...
