The Gentle aarno of Golf.

On one occasion an old lady was in the same railway compartment as a party of golfers. T found fearful trouble this morning." said one. At the first fell right into the middle of priclkly gorse bush. and at the sec ond I was stuck up on the top of 8 tree. I pitched out of bounds into the farmyard at the third, got caught by the wire at the fourth. I stuck fast in a deep hole at the fifth, found my self buried in mud at the sixth. I was lying in a heap of rough hints at the seventh. got lost at the eighth and
 finished up at the bottom of that dirty ditch at the last hole"

 We often hear the question as to which is the most difficult bird In the world to shoot The answer is usually given in favor of the pheasant de scending with closed wings from a higher level of flight. though a few
 lve the preference to the second bar .el shot at teal scared by the discharge of first barrel and darting upward and in any direction but that which is expected.
 A bird which we have never seen mentioned and which yet might take a high place in the category Is the sand grouse It is not to be rated as an English bird of sport. but is familiar to shooters in the east. where 1t is shot as ft comes fighting to water holes to drink. It's flight is something like that of a pigeon. with very swift curves and undulatioas. and in it's case again, as in that of the virginian mosquito hawk. it is said that those who have acquired the knack can kill it with a comparative certainty which is the de spafr of the novice
 After all perhaps our pheasant aero the highest marks for difficulty. for we hear of no one who presumes to say he has discovered any infallible knack by which this most perplextng and yet apparently simple shot can be brought off with any great assur- ance.-Country Life.

Preparing New Pser For His Scat In

 Numerous lorna lfties have to be gone through before any new peer is entitled tO take his seat in the house of lords.
 One of the most important matters is the preparation of the patent. long strip of parchment. to the end of which is affixed the wax seal. the color of which varies. according to the rank of the new member Another item is the robe. made of scarlet cloth with three doublings of ermine the number of bars varying according to rank Thus Sa duke has four bars in front and the same number behind, mar quis one less. and so on
 Then there are preparations in re- gard to making or changing coats of arIGs. in connection with which fees to tue extent of about 50 gufneas are paid by the recipient of summons to the house of lords
 Altogether the financial disburse- menrs amount in the case of new earl to between etipO and E7OO, some of which finds it's way to the chanceI- Tor of the exc chequer and some to the crown as represented by the college of arms. \ considerable portion of this expenditure is. of course. incurred in the purchase Of the coronet.-Lon- don News.

 of Portugal.
 The oVarinas are perhaps the most interesting people in Portugal. They are probably the lineal descendants of the original inhabitants of the land, and now come from small place called Murtosa (Estarreja), not far from Oporto, As the termination indi- cates. the overinas are the women of these people.
 Both old and young, for even young children are thus employed, are ex- ceetling1y active and energetic. They go about barefoot, wearing a peculiar costume, and carrying huge baskets of a peculiar shape on their heads They travel many miles a day and penetrate into every corner of the city, crying their wares in a loud, unmusical shout. They mount even to the sixth floors and bargain with buyers. They go barefoot not because of their poverty, many of them possessing expensive gold ornaments. but because they can thus more easily cover the many miles they run dlring the day. Attempts have been made to do away with this method of selling fish. but they have all failed. The customers like to deal with these fish girls and can purchase from them very small amounts.
 Fish is moi purchased by weight, but by the fish or part of fish. The price avera ges 12 to 15 cents per pound. There are not less than 2,OOO ovarinas engaged in selling fish in Lisbon Consular Report.

 Bank Threw Them Out.
 According to George Cary Eggleston. Virginians of ante Dellum days sho wed great indifference ill money matters. Money in the form of coin was rarely seen. The planters were in the habit of writi1ix csu.cks on slip of fooIscap, instrUoSSg:< ts.a bank to please pay the amcazit specified. Eggleston says: This custom of paying by check so strongly commended itself to a certain unworldly parson of my time that he resorted to it on one occasion in en- tire ignora EeQ and innocence of the necessity of aaving a bank deposit as preliminary 70 the drawing of checks.

Rainey has been. a constant admirer of the ath- letic Miss Eleanora R. Sears, advo- cate of strenuosity for women, and hurried here on his arrival from the frozen north to learn that Harold S. Vanderbilt, son of Mrs. O. H. P. Bel mont, had been assiduously counting the young woman.

The Great Master Thought No Honor
 Too Great For Him mself.
 It was Theophile Gautier who said something to the effect that if he thought that one line of the great mas ter, Victor Hugo, was bad he would not acknowledge it to himself if he were alone at the bottom of a dark we'll On another occasion Gautier spoke of Victor Hugo as "a new Moses fresh from Sinai, charged to deliver the tablets of the law Decidedly, Victor Hugo was a man who knew how to cast a spell upon those about him. For example, look at the follow ing picture draw in the Souvenir sur Turgenieff::" :"
 ..One evening Hugo's admirers as- sembled in his drawing room, were competing with one another in the eulogy of his genius, and the idea was thrown out, that the street in which he lived ought to bear his name. Some one suggested that the street was too small to be worthy of so great a poet, and the honor of bearing his name ought to be assigned to some more i'm portant thoroughfare. Then they pro- ceeded to enumerate the most popular quarters of Paris, in an ascending scale, until one man exclaimed with enthusiasm that it would be an honor for the city of Paris itself to be re- ramed after the man of genius. Hugo, leaning against the mantelpiece, listen ed complacently to these fatterers out bidding each other. Then, with an air of one engaged in deep thought, he turned to a young man and said to him in his grand style, Even that will come, my frfends-even that will come. "-BoQkman.

Aeauirina a Reputation.

Archbishop Howley. who lived in the eighteenth century. most un5ustly got the reputation of swearing like a trooper. The explanation is that the Duke of Cumberland. who fought the battle of Culloden and who was unz speakably profane, once went in quest of the primate to get his assistance about a certain bill which he disliked. He returned to the house of lords, say ing: 'eIt's all right. my lords.
