Woman at Golf.

A golf enclosure is the one place
in the world where the clothes that
woman wears will not be responsible
for her appearance. There have been
women who on muddy links on a
cloudy day, have appeared in an old
badly hanging short skirt, with double.
soled, hob-railed choes. and have play.
ed a game of such snap and vigor and
unequaled grace, and have sent the
ball far ahead with such beautiful
swinging strokes that the name OF
the tailor who made the skirt was
forgotten. And never so nattily dres-
sed player has over and over again
made exhibitions of correct playing
that were yet graceless and dead.
Women on the links are superior to
their costumes. But that is no reason
for being careless. for all that, and 1t
will be some time before American
women golfers will forget the criticism
OF Miss Rhona Adair, the English and
Irish champion, en- her recent visit
to America. While American women,
she said, pay rather more attention
to their cloth on fine days than do
the women across the sea, in unpleas.
ant weather she found that they do
not care what they wear.
"In England" Miss Adair said
'dowdy and careless In dress as we
are supposed to be. have never seen
women in such unbecoming and care
less and rough golf costumes as l
have seen here"
The matter of sleeves rolled up, or
not; of hats on. or off. are alike un-
important. But the matter of shoes
Is very important, since in shoes that
slip no woman can be graceful
player. For all weathers and on all
courses the consensus of opinion
seems to be in favor Of the heavy
soled shoes. with hobs. Whether they
are low or high depends on the indi.
vidual ankles to be supported or left
| free.
There is, however, no denying that
the grace of woman at golf Is as
indefinable a thing as is her charm.
She can never acquire them, though
she may add to what she already has
by her manner and her courtesy; and
there are pessimists who declare that
a woman simply plays golf gracefully,
or she does not, and she can never
very much change her way. But this
is not reasonable 1t stands to reason
that a woman OF 30, Just beginning to
learn to dance anil so using muscles
not often used and not trained, will
be more graceful dancer If she tries
to learn how to be graceful. than ii
she just dances to get over the floor

shirt-waist Suits.

A Bachelor Girl Reflects.

One of the things that a woman
with brains never gets quite used to
is the ease with which the woman
without them commonly gets along.
A good complexion indicates n
sound digestion, but you can never
make man believe that 1t IS not a
sign of a pure heart as well.
All women are made Of glass to
the very young man.
An excellent way to get over a
love affair is to marry the man.
Marriage has some resemblance to
cards. Hearts and diamonds are both
involved, clubs sometimes come into
the game, and unless the divorce
court intervenes, spades are trumps at
last.
A woman has always one standing
grievance against a man. When she
wants good cry she has to sit down
to 1t, while he can swear in any posi-
uon.-New York Herald.

Do Away With Trailing Skirts.

A skirt OF instep length may now
be worn anywhere by fashionable
woman, and the trains should be done
away with by the clean, refined, sensi-
BILE women of the country. Trains
are graceful enough indoors If one
is willing to put up with the bother.
In no spot are they more Of a nuisance
than in a church or a theatre. Wom-
en- ought to ridicule the trailing skirts
upon the streets because of the con-
tagious disease germs these sweeping
garments gather and spread into
homes all over the city. When a
woman comes along the street who
pretends to hold her skirt partly up,
imagine the results. In every case 1t
dips down here and there, gathering
In its cloth the deadly pneumonia or
grip germs. By the time she reaches
home she has scattered germs of fatal
and disgusting diseases enough to in
feet a whole city. She has upon her
feet and ankles more dirt than would
find lodgment upon clean woman's
body in a whole years.

THE MUSIC CURE.
Papa Had No Headache After Plenty

An interesting experiment was re.

friend, young woman with some
knowledge of the piano, to play that
instrument close TO the partition that
divided the two suites. The young
woman said she'd play until her friend
raped on the wall and asked her to
stop. Whereupon she commenced
with "Bedelia," while the other young
woman with watch in hand stood close
to the sitting room door and watched
the result. Not only did she watch it,
but she took notes of it as follows:

The Bisbee man tried to ex- plain matters, but the s100 looked big to the officer, and he hung like fly pa per to his man.
