~ F women who play the fine
Va athletic game of golf in the
United States there are few
who live in the south. Per-
haps the warm climate makes golf too
strenuous. Last winter men visitors
from the north had midwinter golf at
one of the Florida resorts, but northern
women players mostly drop the great
game when they sojourn during the
winter days in the south. Neither does
golf apparently appeal to western wo-
men as to those of the east. There are
a number of clubs in the middle west,
particularly in the vicinity of Chicago,
but in the qualifying games for the
championship of 1904 the western clubs
were speedily put out of commission by
feminine players of the region around
New York, Boston and Philadelphia. 1t
must be that the western athletic girls
are not powerfully attracted to the
Scotch game or they would have put up
a stronger fight.
The real golf enthusiasts among wo-
men seem to be confined to the north

Fulfilling which man arrives at the god

art, science, taste, culture and human

born of the past and of the present:

they all work together to make life

long, and it is trifie tip tilted, just sur
ficiently to give piquancy to the facial
expression. Where and how the girl
evolved this nose, who can tell? Any
way, again, it is her own. The chin of
the new American girl is scarcely less
marked than the nose. 1t is in striking
contrast to the retreating baby chin,
smothered in fat, that was considered
beautiful in the old woman. The new

LADY IN nkNIcKERs.v

The new woman, attired in the latest
development of her idea of rational
dress, has invaded London.
Recently a somewhat stoutly built
lady was to be seen walking jauntily
down New Bridge street, apparently
quite unconscious of or Indifferent to
the sensation her appearance excited.
Her costume consisted of a dark blue
coat and skirt, or, rather, kilt, which
reached to just above the knees, dis
closing beneath a neat pair of knicker-
bockers of the same material. A pair
of thick black wooden stockings and
low shoes completed her attire.

things!

the most tragic things in life to me is

aching brains that have rehashed time

The alarm of FIRE turned in about
6 o'clock last Tuesday evening was
occasioned by blaze at the home
OF !. II. Graves, one block west OF
the Park House. Mrs. Graves
was cleaning some overclothes
with gasoline and hot water.
The gas generated by the combi-
nation exploded filling the room
with flames, both Mr.. and Mrs.
Graves being quite severely burned
on the arms and hands in the
effort to extinquish them. With
the assistance of the neighbors the
fire was under control before much
damage had been done, other than
the personal injuries sustained by

Concerning Smallpox.

AS there have been seven cases
OF smallpox in this city within the
last week, and a number of people
exposed to the disease, cannot
too strongly urge upon all the ne
cessity of successful vaccination
as the only sure method Of pre-
venting and stamping out this
desease.
In regard to school children we
must insist that they present a GER
tihcate of successful vaccination
from their family physician to their
teacher or remain away from
school.
feel justified in saying that
there are a number of children at
tending school who may have had
the operation of vaccination per-
formed once or several times, and
yet are net successfully vaccinated.
The only evidence OF successful
vaccination, after the primary
visicle and inflammation subsidies is
the depressed scar that always re-
mains on the arm. The fact that
you have been vaccinated once,
''or several times" and it did not
take, is no evidence that you are
immune to vaccination or smallpox

In England the laws enacted by the govern

popular feeling as almost to precipitate a Cab

French Prince Imperiars charger by boiling and
leaving him with means of escape from the
Lulus virtually put an end to all possibilities of
a restoration of the empire of France, animals,
birds and even insects, have always played
notable role in history and in affairs of state.
