W. Hamilton's wonderful record reducing 3 re cords in 3 races, all within 90 minutes we were not certain it was on a CRIMSON RIM, so we wrote to Philadelphia and asked if It was. This is the reply :" "You ask as to whether W. W. Hamilton's records were won on a Syracuse Bicycle? Indeed they were, they couldn't be won on anything else or on any other Wheel. More Road Records, more 1895 Track Records and 10 times the number of 1896 Track Records were captured by the riders of the Syracuse Crimson Kim, namely the Syra cuse Band, than has been the case with all other wheels combined. It is a pretty strong statement, but a true one." We are aware the average rider does not want a Bacer but a Roadster. When we show you the Crimson Rim has not only the Track Records, but also the World's Records, you should be satisfied. If you want a fine buggy horse, you would not go to a breeder of draught horses, but to one who had the best Racers-and Roadsters. Zeep Your Eye on . the Crimson Him. HUSKE HARDWARE HOUSE.
