Her Husbands "Cnddie."

1t Is almost impossible to keep abreast
Of the English woman in nm athletic way,
for nothing daunts her, her aim being ev-
identity to be her husbands helpmate in
every sense of the word. Whether it IL 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 leathern bag slung across her
shoulder holding the extra clubs for his
use.
Now, as the links are usually spread over
an area OF perhaps seven or eight miles,
and as the enthusiastic Englishman IL
rarely deferred by either rain or snow, the
task IL no sinecure; but still the British
matron sticks to 1t, and, what is more, In
one Of the gayest at the club dinners which
in the usual finale to 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-
gagged in any sport. For instance, In her
capacity OF 'caddie" she looks particular
ly smart in thick tweed, with rather q
short skirt worn over very well fitting gall
ters in the same shade. A Norfolk jacket;
with the irresistible collar and tie and soft
hat of the same, makes her ycritabls
belle on the aald,-NeN xQgk TelAgSAnA !

Merely . matter Of Money.

A very eminent Philadelphian now de-
ceased. had two daughters married in au-
other city. One of these ladies' was very
fond OF society and of having good time,
On one occasion her husband made Il trip
to Philadelphia and saw her father and
told him that really there was such u
thing as going beyond moderation, and he
feared he would be com PEELED to break up
and send the daughter back to Philadel-
phia to the parental home. To this the
old gentleman responded In his quiet way
that he was very sorry. as he was just on
the point OF making arrangements to set
tie quite \ sum OF money upon his daugh-
ter, rcalizing that he was growing old, and
that it must be difficult for her to sustain
her social position adequately.
Upon hearing this II decided change II
said to have coMe.over the complaining
husband. He had to oacknowledge, he said,
that she had many fine qualities which
could not DO overlooked, and, although she
had been great trial to him, yet II the
father really felt this great interest in her
he, as her husband, would try to overlook
her eccentricities and bear with her II little
longer. He did, and nothing more was
hcard Of tho matter. Times.
