In addition TO these marriage medals he

engagement just as the others do the mar
riage. They are also Of silver and have
on one side man and woman. On the
reverse, surrounded by a half wreath which
is composed OF two turtle doves nesting in
a wreath OF laurel is a space for the names
Of the betrUthed. These medals have not
yet been put on the market, as NJ. Rome
is just now too busy supplying the demand
for the marriage medals. April is the
month for marriages and there will be time
to prepare the others for the market during
the summer months.
Thu fine workmanship Of the medals puts
them in a class with works OF art NJ.
RoIne's work Immediately attracted atten-
ton among numismats and he did not
have to wait long for recognition His
works cover a much larger field than these
medals. He makes portraits on silver in

been acquired for the Luxembourg by the
French government, while others nave been

In lawn tennis, golf and basket ball there
ar" established national championships for
women. The participants come from all
parts Of the country. and the CHAMPION
ship meetings always attract crowds OF
spectators. The style Of the women is
equal in all details to that Of the men. and
especially at golf are the feminine ex-
ponents deemed to be the acme Of grace
and vigor in their swing. At golf to time
the stroke is necessary, and the women
excel at this
At coaching the women display a skill
quite to the mark OF the men. They point
n team and cut a corner with all the dash
OF regular coachmen.
There are few sporting pictures better
worth seeing than that Of a pretty girl
on the box seat of a coach or brake Wo-
men seem to drive with less exertion than
men, which is part Of the style on which
they pride themselves.
The weight of team, that is the pull
on the reins the driving hand, is gem
orally expressed as eight and half pounds,
yet the women bear up the burden for
hours at a time as cheerfully as the men.
Whatever the outdoor game, the women
are ready and willing to take their part
in It. The vim for sports keeps them in
their best health and spirits, and in their
lively talk OF the smoking room afterward
the women prove their good nature and wit.

as much money on sport as, for instance,
on their hats. There are some who have

New York City, composed exclusively Of
women, sought to secure license to sell
liquor in the club rooms and that it was
unable to secure the precious document
because the club building was within less
than 900 feet OF a church-a distance in
which saloons are prohibited by law. This
gave color to the suspicion that members
desired tipple stronger than tea, lemon
phosphate or soda cocktail, and provoked
solemn dissertations on the intemperance
OF woman. Meanwhile members Of the
club went on with their duties and pleas

OF those who are not happy unless prying

not thirsty for strong drink, The club did
not seek a license In fact the mem-
