Athletic Japanese women.

Advocates Of the physical equality of
women and men might find arguments
to support their theory among the Jap
anese. The girls and boys wrestle on
equal terms, and the women are said
to be as strong as the men-supple,
bounding with the vim of life and
graceful in every line" The Japanese
woman seeks abundance Of air, drinks
pure water and goes out of doors the
first thing in the morning. Consequent

A Pansy Crown.

One of the admirable and novel large
hats is of brown velvet. The brim is
doue in three overlapping layers of the
velvet, the outer one dropping bit and
suggesting mushroom. The crown
is rather high. Pansy blossoms, the
small old-fashioned garden sorts, are
scattered thickly around this crown
from the base to the top. The velvet
flowers are in the golden shades, with
a good bit of violet intermingled. So
far this does not sound peculiar, but
the small, fat cluster of dead pink
roses fastened at the left front of the
crown is particularly noticeable and
Frenchy.

Drag hunting or following the hounds in
a cross-country chase has long been popu-
lar at Lakewood. All hunts are in charge
of experienced authorities, who use every
precaution against accident. The hunt
coming across field with pack Of hounds
in full cry affords one of the most pictur-
esque spectacles known to sport. Lake
wood, indeed, is an idyllic spot in which to
pass fan or winter vacation or even a
short sojourn of few days. The golf club
offers exceptional facilities, and the links
are among the finest in the country Com
petent green-keepers are always at hand
to instruct those unfamiliar with the game
and keep in repair the implements Of the
sport. The Country Club is another or
ganization with large membership. Pony
polo has added much to the fame Of Lake
wood Probably the most perfect polo
course in the country is that at Georgian
Court, the estate OF Mr.. George Jay
Gould. During tournaments the privil-
eyes OF the grounds are thrown open to the
public. Facilities for every kind of sport
are found and the roads in and around
the town are kept in perfect condition for
riding, driving and cycling. The nature Of
the sand and gravel underlying the soil af-
fords the best possible drainage, so that
there is never any standing surface water
and dampness does not have to be guarded
against. A booklet full of information Of
