GETTING GREENS READY.
Barre Golf Club Planning to Have Good
Sport

The Barre Golf club is now getting
the course into shape for the season.
The greenskeeper started work on Tues
day and it is expected that If the wealth
er keeps good that the players will be on
the green's in very short time, as every
thing looks good for this time of the
year. The greens committee would like
to see at least about 80 members show
mp on the course next Saturday, and
that they leave their golf clubs at home,
as there is lots of work TO be done, and
it is only by such help as that that they
promise to have the greens in playing
shape at a very early date. So members
take notice, as it is for your own good If
you help.
The club expects to have quite few
new members this season, owing to the
daylight saving scheme, so get mem
hership blank and fill it out and hand it
to any of the club members or to the
secretary, as soon as you can, as he has
now one or two cards already, which he
is to turn over to the membership com
mittee for approval, so get yours in also
and let it be acted on at their first meet

BIGGER PRIZE THAN TIGER
arch Satisfied With Bagging Snug
gIers of Opium.

A singular tiger tale comes from a
village in Java, where the tigers had
been committing havoc for some time.
One day two contraband opium snug
glers, while passing through the forest
saw two tigers following them. They
were armed only with knives, and so
they ran as fast as they could, but the
tigers, as may be supposed, rapidly
gained on them.
When almost overtaken they spied
tiger trap, sort of box-like affair,
and both gladly rushed in. carrying
their burdens with them. The trap
shut down very closely, but that
pleased them nightly, as they could
hear the tigers scratching and snarl-
ing on the outside. The night passed
in this way, and at dawn the tigers
scampered off and the smugglers es-
sayed to do likewise, but all their eff
forts were unavailing. They were in
a trap, sure enough.
Tn few hours the settlers came to
have look at the trap, and rejoiced
to see it closed, thinking tiger had
been caught. Their joy was redoubled,
however, when the prize proved to be
the unlucEy smugglers with a valua-
BILE load of opium, and the unlucky fell
lows were marched off to Jail in tri-
umph.

Meals and MarriaoA.

The length of time that a woman
has been married can be told approx
mately by the manner in which she
eats her refreshments at an afternoon
party. If she excuses herself, just be-
fore the refreshments are served, and
founces out in a righteous, you-negIect-
ENTHUSIASTICALLY look at the
other guests, she is a bride of not
more than two months.
When a woman sits nervously on
the very edge of her chair and eats
overwhelmingly with her eyes on the
clock, she has been married at least
six months, but has not yet become
calloused to suffer because her hus-
band is kept waiting for his evening
meal.
After women have been married
from one to thirty years they settle
down to thorough enjoyment Of
what the hostess best efforts have pro-
duced in the eating line, which no
vision Of cross, impatient and starving
husbands can dim.-Atchison Globe.

Manners Can Be Acquired.

An English critic says that the ath-
letic girl has no manners and has other
faults. But after the brilliant show
ing of little Baltimore girl lately In
rescuing several children Single-hand-
ed from burning house, rescue
made possible by her practice at ath-
letic exercises, the lack of polish more
or less can be easily forgotten. Man
ners can always be acquired, but it
demands very quick action and ability
to save lives: The mistake of such
critics is to lay the blame on athletics
when that blame is due to entirely diff
ferent causes. The old idea that gen.
tleness went with weakness and wom-
anliness with timidity is now exploded.

BURMESE GIRLS EAR PLUGS
Ceremony of Boring Lobes Performed
by Professionals After Consult
ing Fortune Teller.

All the girls here wear ear plugs.
They cannot enter society without
them. AS a maiden approaches the age
of coming out, which is usually at
twelve or thirteen, her ears are bored,
and the ceremony is as important to
her as the first long dress Is to her
American sister.
The ceremony is formal, and it must
be done when the stars are propitious.
The family consults the fortune teller
for this occasion, and a big feast is
prepared. All the relatives and friends
the piercing. q,hisis done by a pro-
fessional earborer, who uses needles
of pure gold for the rich and silver
ones for the poor.
When the exact moment has arrived
the girl is laid down upon a mat in
the back of the room and her relatives
hold her there while the earborer
thrusts the golden needle through the
lobe and twists it around into a ring.
This he leaves in the ear. The other
ear is treated likewise.
While this is going on the bands
play, and after it there is a feast. 1t
takes the ear some time to heal. When
it is quite well the process of enlarg-
ing the hole begins. The needle is
pulled back and forth until the sore
heals.
1t is then taken out and a little cyl
inder of finely rolled gold is pressed
in. This is gradually opened from
week to week, stretching the hole
larger and larger-Burmah Cores
