Golfers Ready Excuse.

1t is notorious that golfers. like
anglers, have a reputation for either
drawing the long box or making ex-
cuses. / thought | knew every excuse
that could be made, from the man
who missed a short putt because a
lark was singing just above his head
to the grumbler who complained that
caddie moved just as he was driv-
ing, but this week heard new one.
1t was apropos of the international
balloon race. One of the balloons
eventually landed on the Ashford
Manor course, and the excuse ad-
vanced by one player was surely
quite original.
When he entered the club he re-
marked: who the dickens could putt
with a balloon lowering over your
head dropping sand on you."-Lon-
don Globe.

There's a wonderful difference be-
tween a food which merely tastes
good and one which builds up
strength and good healthy flesh.
II makes no difference how much
we eat unless we can digest II. 1t is
not really food to the system until 1t
IS absorbed. A Yorkstate woman
says:

with stomach and liver trouble, and

Canada's Average Wages.

A correspondent chides the Ga
.ette for saying that in Britain the
income tax was only paid by the
well-to-do, and then he points out that
the import falls on all who have an
income of G160 or over. A man with
such an income may not, perhaps, be
classed with the well-to-do; but he
is not in the hard-up cIass, either in
Great Britain or Canada. Even here,
where wages are generally higher
than in European countries, the man
with a steady $500 a year would be
counted fairly well fixed by the mass
of the workers, who, recent govern
ment statistics show, have average
earnings of about $500 year.-Mon'
