Her Husbands "Cadaie."

II Is almost impossible 70 keep abreast
of the English woman IN an athletic way,
for nothing da,Ints her. her aim being ev-
identity to be her husbands helpniate in
every sense of the word Whether it is deer
stalking in Scotland or hunting tigers in
Africa. She is always by his side. Her
latest is to be his ''caddie" in golfng,
This pleasant duty consists in following
him with a leatllern bag siung across her
shoulder holding the extra Clubs fer his
use.
Now, as the links are usually spread ever
an area CT perhaps seven or eight miles
and as the enthusiastic Englishn,an Is
rarely deferred by either rain or SHOW, the
task is no sinecure; but still the British
i1atron sticks to it. and. Whist is more, Is
ore Of the cayest at the club dinners which
is the usual finale TO Il hard days play
In the matter of dressing she is FAR ahead
of any other country-that is, in always
looking trim and comfortable when en-
eaced in any sport. For instance, in her
capacity of ''caddie" she looks particular
ly smart in II thick tweed, with rather Il
short skirt worn over very we'll fitting gai-
tiers in the same shade. y Norfolk jacket,
with the irresistible collar and tie and soft
hat Of the same, makes her veritable

The Origin of Satin.

manufacture of satin was pure accident
The word i'satiE, " which originally was
applied to all silk stufis, has since the last
century sbeen used to designate simply
those tissues which only present IL lustrous
surface The discovery was made by a
silk weaver named Octavio Mai. During
II dull period of business one day he was
pacing before his loom, not knowing how,
to give new impulse to his trade.
AS he passed the machine each time he
pulled short threads from the warp, and
following an cid habit put them into his
mouth aud rolled them about, soon after
spitting them upon the floor. Later he
discovered little bail Of silk upon the
door of his shop and was astonsh2d ut

As fisherman the American black bear
IS an expert. He will stand in Il creek or

his big forepaws, and it must be Il lively
