A HANDICAP IN GOLF.

Il Was a Rather Mean Advantage, but
| II Won the Game.
An unusual golf handicap was played
on one of the local links recently. the
prepayment Of the same winning hands
down. One Of the rules of golf is that
one must not talk to player when he
Is about to make drive, nor must 9TH
ers discuss any subject in his hearing.
1t might take his mind of the game for
just an instant. and that might prove
fatal.
In Kansas City lives crack but ex-
tremely nervous golf enthusiast He
had been in the habit of beating fat
and phlegmatic friend until the latter
tired of it.
"T'll tell you what I'll do" the friend
said not long ago. 81 will play you
eighteen holes If you will give me
handicap"
Done" said the nervous player.
"Name the handicap"
Three times during the game, and
not more than three, am to be per-
mitted to stand behind you and say
'Boor while you are preparing to
drive"
Every time it was the nervous mans
play his fat friend walked up and just
stood behind him. Never once during
the game did the fat man say "BooP'
or anything else. But the anticipation
at the expected Boot was fairly
nerve SCATTERING, and the fat man won
hands down.-Kansas City Journal.
