anything about the game do not require a
teacher, who can only explain the intrica-
cies of golf, but one who understands
what 1t means to play in skirts and cor
sets. Therefore, here is another opening
Tor feminine enterprise, as no man could
possibly teach them how to overcome the
problem of petticoats in relation to this
game, as for them golf must be modified,
1t being impossible for woman TO COM
pete with men on even terms hampered
with her skirts.
An experienced golfer says: 1.-THE pro-
fesslonal man golfer, il whateve. country
you md him. is not able 10 teach q
woman to drive put or lift in a grace
iul woman fashion. Put him into
woman's dress, and perhaps he might in
time evolve some golf-strokes leveled
down to skirt limitation, but it is doubt
ful. Start woman professionals, and The
game Will assume a more charming as
pect. And women who at present pIav
shocking game because they are striving
to rival a mans attitude and mannerism
might play admirably if they learned
their Strokes from woman's point of
view"
Undoubtedly these sentiments are lauda-
BILE ones. The danger of most sports is
that women are apt to emulate men in
spite of the inevitable handicap of sex.
But 1 must confess l should prefer seeing
novices taught to play the game in a
womanly way by competent amateurs.
simply for the love of the thing, without
widening the already too wide bounds of
professionalism. MARCELLA.

In Olivia

Ellen Terry has been wearing bewitch-
ing cap which is being universally copied,
so l describe 1t as best / can. Ii is caught
up in point with knot of ribbon above
the hair and frames the face most fascinat-
ingly. L have changed my mind; instead
OF a description allow me to refer You to
an illustrated copy of the Vicar OF Wake
field. 1t is said to be correct reproduc-
tion OF the cap in which we usually see the
fair Olivia. Exactly when our fair maids
are going to wear such caps the corre-
spondent does not state and / am at loss
to understand. However, we must know
all that is going on in the fashion BILE
world, so do not say have so much as
omitted cap.
In this quaint play we can readily COM
prehend how great an effect the delig ht:ul
frocks produce, for in those days the
women draped the softest and creamiest OF
muslin fichus about their threats, frilled
their short sleeves and looped back their
gowns to show bright petticoat of GRIM
son stuff.
These costumes were so we'll received
that one fashion journal goes so far as to
predict that before the summer is over we
will be wearing very similar dresse hut
In England the revival of the early Vic.
torian styles is being warmly discussed
and one fair Duchess will shortly give a
great ball at which all her guests will wear
the garments fashioned after those Of sixty
wears AGO
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1897-04-18

There is no particular styl that governs
this newest method of selecting costumes,
except the individuality of the person
who Is to wear what is sought.
The effect is invariably successful. A
recent instance OF this was the case of q
very graceful young woman who wore a
dress copied from one seen in painting
by Sir Joshua Reynolds. This dress was
yelled in lace. and boosted of train clev-
erly disposed like a regal mantle of red
velvet, deep Venetian royal red that
ma ched the liquid light of rubies.
One very pleasant feature of this idea is
that 1t enables the use of costumes worn
ever so long ago, and which the owners
had possibly believed to be so thoroughly
out OF style that it would be hopeless to
try to utilize them. It is a fact that any
style, If it is only picture dress, will do,
always provided it Is becoming, and this
has resulted in many O fashionable woman
saving half her usual wardrobe expenses.
There is nothing difficult about follow
ing this fashion. All that one need 10 do
Is TO visit the portrait section of some art
gallery, and there find the picture of some
lady of long ago robed in fashion which
Will be truly becoming to the visitor.
Ihon she can say when she dons her new
gown, even though it be an old one fixed
over. that she had made it after the stvle
of the dress worn by one OF the ladies
whom Sir Joshua Reynolds had painted,
or that it was an exact copy of the attire
OF Gainsborough beauty. Certainly it is
very clever fad, and as this is the season
OF economy, or rather the year of it, every
woman should hail the idea with extreme
satisfaction,
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1897-04-18
For Men.

For evening and frock coats l have no
changes to record, all men having their
shoulders cut square, carefully avoiding
the slanting effect which is so strikingly
unbecoming to the best of figures, and it
should be remembered that exaggerations
OF all kinds are to be studiously avoided
by men who desire to be correctly garbed,
and such men never allow their tailors to
send them home clothing that lacks indi-
viduality but a man must let his tailor
see that he understands what is correct,
otherwise he will not take IN nine cases
out of ten proper amount of interest in
his customer.
In this country the sack coat is very
popular for business. 1t has two side
pockets and no breast pockets, as the
breast pocket has gone entirely out of
style. as L before noted, as our handker-
chiefs must be kept out of sight, and in
no coat whatever can there be more than
two outside pockets, and the frock coat
never has any Wis. b one.
The felt hat is in vogue in London, and
some OF the best turned out young men
are ordering hats to match the color of
their suits, grays and browns of many
tones being in demand.
The evening shirt with a single stud is
MOI IN favor, those having three being
now considered correct
Cuffs are now perfectly square in shape,
and the collar may be said to be higher
and more uncom promising than ever.
Smart men occasionally wear detached
collars, but detached cuffs are not permits
sible.
Him tells US that for the evening we
may wear small gold studs of a dull fin
ish. Link cuff buttons of gold-Roman
finish-with your monogram engraved
thereon. Wear no other jewelry, good,
bad or Indifferent
Concerning gloves 1 note that dogskin
and chevette will be tue smartest, for
glace kids are too shiny and dressy and
the white kid excepting for evening wear
has vanished, but it is still worn at many
weddings in place of the pearl gray.
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1897-04-18
Walking.

The art of walking is certainly lot I'M
derstood by many women, and a critic,
writing from New York, anxiously in
quires why SO many well-built, stylish
young women are walking heel first, jerk
ing their shoulders and moving their arms
with rotary motion. Such questions
would take some time to answer, for GER
tain most ungraceful motions of the body
have been taken up at times by foolish
young women, who would have more
sense could they but realize how COM
pietely they ruin the effect and style of
the most chic OF gowns and jackets by
such nonsense.
1t is perfectly true that most children
are not taught to walk properly, they
teach the mselves with greater or less sue
cess.
A bright American, while visiting at
AK les Bains, met a young woman, with
whom she took several long walks. After
the first excursion she began to notice
that her com panion felt less fatigue than
she did, and always returned with her
skirts in excellent condition, even when
the roads had been either muddy or
dusty. This state of affairs caused her
considerable surprise. so at length she
asked for an explanation, and was prom pt-
