CROWS ON GOLF LINKS.

One Fastidious Bird That Would Steal
Only New Balls.
The crow seems to be attracted to
golf balls in way peculiar from the
rest of the bird species. In parks
where the rock and the crow abound
one can notice them sitting in tho
trees or hopping about the putting
green's in the distance watching tho
roll of the ball with a, direct or side
long glance expressive Of the keenest
interest and curiosity, which Is soon
translated into a desire to, carry IL
off to the roost in the neighboring
wood.
The Kew gardens adjoin the Mid
Surrey course, and in. the, royal pre-
serve there used to be fairly large
colony Of crows nesting among the,
trees. OF this convoy there was one
particular crow who found his great
est amusement in minglfng among. the
golfers and in disconcerting their play
by INDUCING In repeated predatory
campaigns against their golf balls.
His policy was to hover in attend
ance on those players who used new
white balls only. Those on which the
paint had been Clipped or which had
been used in play for several rounds
by an economical player were always
rejected by this particular bird as be.
ing beneath his fastidious attention.

CHAPTER XXI.
A Scotch MARRIAGE.

ly from Bonholt's lips. In the light of
the shaded candles on the table his
face had gone suddenly gray.white.
He half rose in his chair and leaned
across, loking searchingly into his
guests eyes, as if to read the thoughts
behind the cynically amused face

strangways raised his eyebrows

Philip Hume's lawful wife,"
"But-but if she were his wife-oh.
it's impossible!" cried the older man,
steadying his voice with an effort: a
light perspiration had broken out
about his mouth and on his temples.
She has been in the village all these
weeks; if she were his wife, would
she not have come forward?"
Really, I am inclined to believe
that she may not know-indeed. I am
inclined to think that Philip probably
treated her very badly indeed" said
strangways, with an imperturbability
that contrasted with the older mans
agitation. II know, for instance. that
he married her under the name of
Carr, only, of course, a false name
doesn't invalidate a marriage. So Won
see you really are not the heir, Bon

too thick in its stem to be thrust
easily into or be withdrawn from a
cushion. The vase holder makes this
operation quite simple and easy.
The new holders are much longer
than any that have been made before,
The daintiest ones are fashioned of
flfgree silver with q solid base. Enam.
eled holders are attractive and they
can be had in colors to match the
room. The newest pin trays are d.
vided into compartments formed by
small ridges, so that black and white
pins are not mixed up with q kaleido-
scopic tumble. Trays without such par
titions should be reserved for q GER
tain kind of pins, and then small
cushions will do to hold the others.
No woman wants to be at the mercy
of a jumbled up pin tray when she is
dressing in hurry.
Glass and silver combine to make
charming toilet and dresser articles.
The pin trays and small boxes made
of thick beveled crystal set in cut out
silver stands are most attractive.
They are daintier in some ways than
all the silver trays and have the adj
vantage of not showing scratches. If
the crystal part breaks another one
can be fitted in. In all else but the
shape these pin trays resemble those
dainty little dishes designed to hold
slices of lemon for afternoon tea. The
lemon dishes are round or oval and
have very slanting sides. while the
pin trays are oblong, as a general
thing.

BRINGS OUT LUsTER OF HAIR.
Best Color That Can Be Worn by the
Woman Whose Crown Of Glory
Is White.

The silver-haired woman makes a
mistake in wearing black in her hair
under the impression that it will bring
out the color. The contrast is too
startling, and black deadens the lus-
ter. White deadens the silver tones
and is apt to give the hair a greenish
hue.
The most becoming one that can be
used is silver, though there are GER
tain shades of turquoise blue that are
lovely with it.
For daytime or informal wear bows
or fillets of silver gauze are charming,
while for evening a big silver flower
or wreaths and garlands in silver oak
leaves or narrow silver bands will
give the silver-haired woman a touch
of distinction that no other coloring
can.

one recently. She chose polka-dotted,
cream-colored pongee silk. A plain
fitting yoke for back and front was
cut double. From this the garment
was accordion-plaited, stopping at a
short waistline. She bought bolt Of
