The UncompIimentary Caddie.

Walter J. Travis. the great golf play
er, told this story to ex-President Taft
as the best anecdote about golf be had
ever heard:
Old Mr.. Brown had played the game
for years with great assiduity and
without any noticeable improvement
in his performance. Employing the
same cadde every afternoon, he fought
the greens and hazards unrelentingly.
The caddie. however, being discreet and
also DESTROYS Of tips. never voiced his
real opinion of Mr. Browns game.
One day stranger came to the links
and arranged to play a round with Mr..
Brown Mr. Brown went over to his
caddie and asked contidentially:
"Bobbie. have you ever seen this gen.
tleman play?"
Yes. sir
How is his game?"
Rotten. sir; very rotten"
How much handicap can l give
him. asked Mr.. Brown. as If seeking
reliable information.

New Caledonia were still cannibals-
There had been rumors of an insurrec-

try and remained an hour longer than
he had intended to. He had left Mrs.
Dolby washing up the dishes and sing
ing to herself. and she had said that
she would have some grease ready for
his boots on his return.
He arrived to find an empty kitchen,
the fire about out and no grease. He
was not greatly surprised. however.
He lighted the lamp. stirred up the
fire and then passed into the sitting
room to find Mrs. Dolby lying on the
floor on her back with her eyes rolled
back in her head Some husbands
would have picked her up and placed
her on the lounge at least. but he sat
down to the table and picked up a
photograph of Niagara falls and began
studying it. He had just finished
mental calculation of the number Of
quarts Of water going to waste when
Mrs. Dolby fetched a long drawn groan.
No use.
Mrs. Dolby Faints.
Three minutes passed. and the groan
was longer and more lugubrions.
The deacon paid no attention.
Then Mrs. Dolby sat up and looked
around in seeming establishment and
said:
THAT you. Samuel? I thought
had died and gone to heaven! I must
have been in a faint for the last half
hour"
He made no reply. and she struggled
up and dragged herself to the lounge
and began to shuttle. Three or four
minutes passed before she said:
Samuel. about three minutes after
you left heard a dog howl and knew
that something dreadful was going to
happen. 1t happened Mrs. Britt came
in to see If could give her little

She Knows All.
The deacon had read that the falls
had worn away one-siXteenth Of an
inch in the last 500 years and was try
ing to figure out how many million
years it would take to wear the brink
back seven feet. and it is possible he
didn't hear his wife's words. Her eyes
overfowed and she sobbed a few
times and then continued:
