Women Need Exercise.

The woman who does her own
housework (and that is the fortune
of the majority is usually worn out
at the end of the day. She is apt to
conclude, therefore, that exercise is
word not intended for her. She
couldn't make a greater mistake,
writes Frances Frear in Leslie's. A
woman needs half hours rest near
the middle of the day, it is true, but
she needs also systematic and stimu-
lating exercise. One reason why WON
en- are so fatigued at the end of the
day is that they lack muscle tone.
Half an hour of brisk exercise suited
to the peculiar needs of each individ-
ual, taken regularly, followed by a
cold dash of water will serve to keep
the whole muscular and nervous sXs-
tenn in tone and work wonders in
keeping the eyes bright and the color
good, something that all women de-
sire. The housewife who takes both
brief rest and systematic exercise
daily will not find herself so much a
prey to that tired out feeling at the
days end, and will be able to do all
of her work the better.

Event in American History.

November "a, 1853, marked the
evacuation and destruction of Fort
Duquesne. A short time previous to
this the British had initiated the work
of fortification. The French, coming
down the Allegheny river from their
forts on and near Lake Erie, made a
sudden descent on the small British
garrison, and the latter was forced to
surrender Internationally. The French
and their Indian allies completed the
fertilization and called it Fort Du-
quesne. A British force commanded
by General Forbes was sent from the
east to retake the fertilization, and
doubtlessly would have succeeded
without the loss OLA man had it not
been for the impetuous Captain Grant.
The fort was blown up while the main
force was yet ten miles east of the
site of the future great city. They
heard a great explosion, saw volumes
of smoke, and realized at once that
the French and Indians had destroyed
the little fortification and had taken
to the woods and the rivers.

INSULTS NOBLE GAME
FRENcHMAN ACTUALLY DSRES
TO RlDlCULE GOLF.
Lysvotees of "BilIiards on the Green
Turf" Must Think of Something
in the Nature of a Fitting
Punishment.

1--WE see on the green countryside
during the warm days OF summer per-
spring creatures, flushed and I'M
kempt. armed with long-handled clubs,
striking the ground with frenzy, as if
they wished to discover rare stones or
precious metals. 1t is golfers at
work"
Ahus writes contributor to the
Paris Journal in giving what he calls a
Guide du Golf" He explains some of
the peculiarities of the game. First,
with regard to the ground. ANY
ground will do, so long as it Ia not
level. Having found your ground, you
then take great care to fill up all the
natural holes in it. Having done so,
you make a number of artificial holes,
which are all of fixed shape and
depth--the more these holes resemble
natural holes the better they are.
Golf is the direct descendant of a
now Questionable sport known as
stonebreaking, which consists of break
ing the stones on roads with the aid
of long hammer. The essential diff
ference is that the golfers do not wear
wire spectac1es like their ancestors,
the stonebreakers.
"The stones have been replaced by a
small india rubber ball, which lasts
much longer, being unbreakable.
"The problem is to make this ball go
into the holes on the golf course with
out touching it with the hands. That
would be much too easy. To push it
toward the holes you use a wooden
stick with an iron butt, very incon-
veniently shaped SO as to make the
problem as complicated as possible.
This stick is called club, and its num-
Der is legion, since it is the correct
thing to change the club between each
stroke, Just as you change forks be-
tween each course. The collection OF
clubs, contained In an umbrella case, is
carried behind the line of fire by a
yOungster known as a caddy. The
player having chosen with great care
from among his clubs one which is
| likely to make a successful stroke,
fourishes it with both hands, strikes
and misses he ball. There are two
ways Of missing the ball-one by using
too much force and the other by not
using enough. The stroke with too
much force behind it is the easier; it
consists in striking the earth a few
feet behind the ball without touching
It, When this stroke is well done it
sends into the air shower of earth
and turf after the style of fireworks
display, with very elegant effect. The
hit which misses is more delicate to
achieve. In this case it is necessary
that your club, after vigorous -four
ish, should make straight for the ball,
pass it without touching it, and return
By the impetus given it to strike the
player on the back of the head.
This is how l found golf played
and 1 have studied it number of
yeale."
