MOMENTS ATHLETICS.
4 Physician Warns Against the Dan-
 gers of OvertruininE.

4 Physician Warns Against the Dan- gers of Overtrnining.
 Dr. Sargent of Harvard is not an en= thusiast on public school developments in the way of girls teams of basket ball or hockey players. In recent talk on the subject he expressed the opinion that girls and women are in possible danger of overdoing athletics when they take up certain sports which are popular with boys and men. Let woman rather contine herself to the lighter and more graceful forms Of gymnastics and athletics says Dr. Sal gent and make herself supreme along these lines, as she has already done in aesthetic dancing. Among the athletic sports and games likely to prove in iurious to most women if played in the form in which they are played by men pr. Sargent mentioned football ice hockey. basketball. pole vauliing and heavy gymnastics. These games prove injurious to women. he said. because of the limitations imposed by their physical confguration. the tendency to become masculine in form and charac ter if they try to excel in masculine pursuits and their inability to bear prolonged mental and physical strain. Nevertheless such sports could be so modified as to meet the peculiar re- quirements of the sex. with the result that they could be played by women with reasonable hope of physical, men tai and moral development. The ad- vice is so sound and timely that 1t ought to have the widest possible pub licity. The extreme to which some matches of basketball among girls of high schools has been carried right in Massachusetts would be enough of It. self to convince the average observer that Dr. Sargent had spoken none too sharply. There can be a hysteria in sport as well as In any other healthy diversion Nor Is the hysteria always confined to women's athletics. but at least it is more harmful there--Boston Advertiser

 Woman's Appearance.
 Few women realize how much their appearance depends on the way they dress their neck. Women with short necks bundle themselves up until they look as If they had chronic sore throats. while a girl with a neck like a giraffe wears little turndown collar.
 Let her who has the long neck wear all the high, soft adornments she can get together. With an evening gown she need not he afraid to put a band of ribbon under her necklace, and she will look all the better.
 In the day time medium necked wom- en should never wear collar that con- fines the neck too much, in the even ing the least adornment possible, and If she be fortunate enough to have Q pretty neck and throat she is much bet ter without any jewels. If she must wear some. let them he a string O.! pearls or a necklace of solitaire dia monds.

 The boys lead busy life from day break 10 nine o'clock. To learn Wood- craft a tent party tramps off into the woods. builds camp for the nlSht catches fish for dinner, and does it's own cooking like an Indian hunter. The hoy who would wear the camp emblem must win it by prowess cum hing in hunting strength or service to inc camp or others; and these en- blems mean as much as the feathers to inc Indian or the stripes to the army officer. Days are spent in some camps in building boats or canoes; the photographers hunt with their cameras to get photographs of wild animals in motion or cartridges drum ming. A prize is given for the big pest fish caught; for the best fly east or: or for harpooning the dummy sturgeon.
