Many Young Women Handy With the

Washington, d. C.--The Washington
Fencers' club Is composed not only OF
men who have acquired this dexterous
art but numbers among its members
many fair women. These latter are so
expert that they need not resort to the
woman's natural weapon--a hatpin--to
repel attack, but might readily use a
parasol or any little stick to ward at
tack from any man so unnatural as to
attack their apparent weakness. After
many trials and fluctuations this or
ganization will achieve real social tri-
umph when its champions cross blades
in the latter part Of this month with
the picked men from the Naval acade-
my at Annapolis.
Among the ladies who have been
prominent in this club is the Countess
Cassini She Is small and slender, and
although a mere girl In years, posses
SEES the accomplishments OF belle. She
was among the first TO wear the clubs
colors and cross blades not only with
her own companions among the girls,
but has occasionally worked new but
tonholes into the jackets OF men who
have faced her rapier. In her delicate
physique she demonstrates the truth
that skill and not brute strength wins
honor at this noble game. She has new

r HERE are many sickly women be-
l tween the ages Of Is and IS, but
- there are very few invalids over IS

gives her a new lease on life. Those who
meet this change in i'll health seldom live
