"rhe Soul Of oolf."

One who knew the soul of golf saw

To have overrun it would have been

He cut we'll in under the ball to gel
all the back spin he could. He pitched
the ball we'll up against the wind
which caught It, and, on account o.
the spin, threw 1t up and up until II

dropped like shot bird about a yard
from the hole. and the back spin
gripped the turf and held the ball with
in foot of where 1t fell. It was OBJ
vious to one man that 1t was crude
shot. It was equally obvious to an
other, who knew the inner secrets Of
the game, that 1t was q brilliantly
conceived and beautifully executed

soul Of the stroke. He got the husk

RAINY DAl in BE MUIR RsERY
Various Ways III Which the Children
Can BE Amused and Kept From q
Peevishness IN Bad Weather. S

A rainy day is always something OF
q trial to the children In the aursery.s
The little ones miss their usual walk.
and the hours drag heavily. The chil-i
dren are listless and peevish, and the
day very likely ends with q At Of tenn.
per or tears. y
Now, here is way to avoid these
consequences: Dress the children IN
their hats and coats and turn them
loose to romp In large room where
the windows are thrown open, but Sc
cure from danger. This plan gives
them plenty Of fresh air and exercise.
Set aside few toys, not necessarily
expensive ones, and keep them strictly
for rainy days or when the children
are prevented by illness from going
out. '-s-.-.
The rainy day doll or box Of bricks
or automobile will be welcomed as q
novelty and will keep the boys and
girls amused for hours when they.
would soon tire Of their usual toys.
Another fine plan is to let the chill
dren help about the house. A little
girl will be delighted with permission
to help make the beds or dust things
she cannot break
Let rainy days be always times Of
indoor activity. You cannot expect a
child with overfowing energy to spend
hours in quiet occupations.
"Why can't you sit down and keep
still with a book?" mother asks.
The child doesn't know why it
can't, though the explanation is very
simple one.
A great deal Of exercise is needful
for the proper development of growing
limbs, and If this exercise cannot be
secured by outdoor play it must be
gained in some other way.

SAVING ON THE GAS BILL
Boil a Lot Of Potatoes at Once and Fix

Two or three times a week boil or
steam a large kettle of potatoes in the

all day with the multitudinous duties
which fall to the lot of every house.

This arrangement saves not only
time, but fuel, and the same plan may
be followed in cooking meat. It is
waste Of time and money to roast :

preparing to cook either pot or an
oven roast, purchase a large one, for
it will consume very little extra fuel In
the cooking, and what is left from the
first meal can be worked over into
numerous dishes fully as tasty as the
first one. Do you always plan an oven
meal when you are roasting meat!

The Spear In the Tusk.

1t seems unbelievable that a wild
negro's iron spear point seven and u
half inches long by one and half
inches wide has been found all grown
over and perfectly hidden in big
bull elephants tusk. The savage had
roasted UP in a big tree over spring
where the elephant came for water.
Then he dropped this spear, weighted
to fifty pounds, SO as to strike the
nape of the neck and pierce the brain.
Here the spear went little to one
side of the brain and into the big open
funnel end of TIE root of the tusk,
broke off and then "growed" up in the
ivory like Il nail i'll a tree. The spear
was found when the tusk was carved.

Have We Conquered the Air3

Have We Conquered the AtrS
The frightful number of fatal acci-
dents among aeroplanists causes us to-
wonder whether we have solved the
aviation problem, after all. Are we
liable to solve it? The increasing
death roll makes it appear that there
is some fundamental defect in all the
machines thus far constructed. 1t is
idle to say that it is all the fault of
the motors. Even with the motors
working perfectly the planes some
times turn over and plunge to the
earth. Most of the recent accidents
have not been due to the motors. The
French marquis and his companion
that were dashed to death few days
ago had nothing to complain Of their
engine.
There is coming to be large ques-
tion in the public mind as to the pos
sibility of safe flight at all. Are the
air currents so treacherous that they
can never be fully overcome? Is avia
ton only to be n rather precarious
sport and never means of general
travel? After several years of ex-
perimenting the death list does not
decrease, but rather increases. Is the
defect that is responsible for the fa-s
talities one that can be corrected, or
does it inhere in the very nat,,re of
aviation?
Fortunately the science of air flight
Is In its infancy, and modern ingenui-
ty may yet solve the problem. blit H.
assuredly has not solved it yet.

Louise CoIet and the Fever.

Louise Colct, the French poet. novel
ist and general writer, was born at AK,
in Provence, in 1910. She was better
known i'll life than to posterity not
only by her writings, but from various
little incidents with which she was
connected. One Of the most trying
was when she intended to winter in
the isle Of Isclia, in the gulf of Naples.
No sooner was she established in this
sea girt auburn than an epidemic
broke out. The people thought it must
be the stranger who had brought the
trouble. She was threatened and mar
rowly escaped death by the devotion of
u friend who got her away in a yacht.
Strange as it may seem, when the
"tenth muse" had left the island the
fever disappeared
Novelists In Monasteries.
Tolstoy was not the first modern
writer to seek refuge in a monastery
from the troubles and tribulations OF
the world. The French novelist
uuysmans also did so, but he did not
remain in the monastery very long, be-
cause his conception of the religious
life differed from that of the monks.
1t was his pleasant habit to sally forth
in evening dress with flower in his
buttonhole to dine in town and to re-
turn, charioted sometimes by Bacchus,
to knock the monks up in the small
hours of the morning. They did not
like that, and so, though they had
the highest regard for their guests
literary gifts, they suggested that
private hotel would suit his way of
Absentmnded Lord Derby.
Lord Derby could be very absent
minded, and once ON time he walked
with Lord Clarendon, his opponent,
and told him all the secrets Of the
cabinet Lord Clarendon listened
amazed, but thought it too large an
order when he was asked for his ad-
vice. 1t was not for him to counsel
his political foes. At this intimation
Lord Derby woke up, saying. "Really,
1 thought all the time was talking
to colleaguev He had continued,
hardly recognizing the fact, a contro-
versy he had been having with other
ministers at the foreign Office. OF
course Lord Clarendon honorably pre-
served the cabinet secrets, but he told
his story against Lord Derby and
made laugh.
Lacked Atmosphere.
"I did hope for m artistic career"
said the disappointed looking man.
"but met with difficulties I could not

All children enjoy stringing
beads and berries for necklaces
and bracelets. They can use rose
hips, thorn apples. mountainash
berries, and watermelon, musk
melon and other seeds.
These may be combined with
each other, or with connecting
links of freshly dried bulrushes.
Or ordinary lemonade straws may
be cut in short lengths.
The baby can string the large
berries alone. The four-year-old
can strengthen his growing knowl-
edge Of number groups by string
ing one and two, or two and two.
The older children will find a wide
variety of possible combinations
in color, form and number.
