In the entire countryside. There are two

 are in Boston, no matter where you go.
 although 1t is essentially game for the
 leisure class" said Mrs. Campbell. when
 speaking about those with whom she
 comes In contact with at Franklin Park
 It is usually considered too expensive
 for ordinary persons, the cost of sticks
 and ball being so high, but here in Bos-
 ton everybody seems to have taken up the game. although there are not as many of what might be called the work Ing class on the links as there were last year.
 T find more coming here this year who desire instruction than ever before, and
 q great many of those who forsook these links year or more ago are coming back. Of course, the beginners with whom have most to do, use the six-hole course, but it is really remarkable how quickly .ne great majority of them learn. T think the men take 1t up more quickly and become more proficient afaer 1 fewer number of lessons than do the women, but the latter seem to master fl very easily. and it often happens that some of my pupils become adept enough to give me a good game within a very short time after they begin.''

Ones character is said to be revealed with infaIlible accuracy by the way ne holds and carries an umbrella One en- thusiast, who has made a study or ths publics' umbrella manners, has announced that he would want no better guide m choosing his wife than to watch her 1url and carry her umbrella.
 The man who pokes you in the rins win his umbrella for instance. does not alone announce by such an act that ne IS ruoe or careless. To the experienced eye the act lays bare the innermost secrets or his character.
 The man or woman who carries an um- brella with the point backward and down ward is unassertfve. On the other hand, persons who, in walking, carry their um- breilas by the handles, with the points continually extended or pointing forward. will be found self-asserting and energetic.
