LATEST GOLfING DEVICE.
An Aid to Student Of Style and Accuracy ia
Hitting.

The latest golfing device on the mar
ket is called the parachute ball, ana it
promises to be popular with beginners.
and even with experienced players who
are not able to get out on the links
more than once or twice a week. The
parachute ball is designed for the pur-
pose of practising driving and brasse !
play in limited space and it so far ac-
composites the object that a player can
now go through all the delights of
driving. approaching and putting in d
small-sZed back yard.
An ordinary golf ball is pierced
through the center and a piece Of
strong cord is run through the hole and
knotted on the further side. Tie cord
is some six or eight feet long. and on
the other end small parachute OF
cloth is made fast. This is laid out on
the ground. and when the ball is hit it
acts as break and prevents the ball
flying more than few yards.
a player can study style and ac-
curacy in hitting the ball by this little
device without having to hire a caddie
to retrieve the balls. Moreover. it
saves balls. and practice can be taken
in the half hour before dusk when
there is not time to go to the links for
even play over three or four holes.
With small putting green, a tennis
net or something similar for a bunker.
and a parachute golf ball player can
practise to his hearts content on a
space hardly large enough for a GRO
quet ground. With the aid of a gimlet
one can make his own parachute pail.
The parachute does not have to be over
six or eight inches in diameter.

THE CHOPPERS. {"
One of the Most Extraordinary super
stitions In the World Enter
tanned by Beers.

The Boer is deeply religious, and,
moreover, so supremacy cvotistical that
he really believes that his people are
superior to any other in the world, says
the London Mail. The "doppers" some
40 years ago somehow conceived the
idea that they were the descendants of
the lost tribes of Israel.
This was surely caring proposition
TO advance, and as the heads of the
households declared that they were
temporarily sojourning in the wilder
ness and that during their stay they
would be smitten for their iniquties the
young Beers naturally came TO regard
the English as instruments Of ven
geance.
Even now there are Beers who on the
strength of the holy words go God, the
heathern are come into mine inner
itance," refuse 10 obey the orders Of the
field comets TO fight the English, not
because they are afraid, but because
they believe that the English being the
chosen instruments of vengeance it
would be an act of impiety TO OPP
pose them.
The land of promise is thought by
some Beers TO be in the neighborhood
of the Limpopo river. This is no doubt
one of the most extraordinary super
stitions that ever took into captivity the
human mind, but there il is. and IL the
Beers at the end Of the campaign should
be willing to adopt this land as their flu
ture home Great Britain, il is thought,
would not refuse them the privilege.

woman newspaper reporter, who
Is now well-known author, once
called upon Miss Grace Dodge, the
millionaire organizer and head of the
New York Working Girls clubs, who
is also the author of "A Bundle of Let
tiers to Busy Girls" says the Philadel-
phia Post. The servant looked sym.
pathetically at the reporter, invited
her into the house, took away her wet
rubbers and shoes and brought dry
ones, an act which filled the visitors
heart with joy. Then she brought a
cup of tea and some biscuit.
After long wait, Miss Dodge came
in.
Are you a reporter" she asked
the newsgatherer. Yes? ] am very
sorry you should have come up here
this rainy day TO sec me. You know,
/ never talk about my plans for pub
lication, but we can have just as nice
n time talking about books and pic
lures. Won't you have another cup
of tea? Must you be going? I am
very sorry. Wait a minute and have
the coachman drive you TO your of
flee or your home. Come up some day
when we can have more time, and I'll
tell you all about the Working Girls
clubs, but of course you won't print
any of it,"
The reporter rode home, but she
didn't call again-at least, not on
business.
