Htrlctlv iH twoon ourselves, however. I
ght not take very kindly to golf at the

aptly described tho sport, did not make
iw wish to ramp out on tho link*. ami
this was especially tr.» of tho cold
weather chasing when Che quinine pill
moot not only bo chased uml ovortakon.
but taken aa well after each g.tmv to
ward off an ultack of pneumonia. I

Talking on tho clubhouse veranda or

than milking weary miles after the
quinine pill under a fright making uml

quently an Invitation to go around the
link* from Willie Ftulger Kniblicks or
Reginald Brussle was Invariably ac
cepted with an outward smile and an
Inward groan. What possible fun can
there be. thought 1, in tramping a tor
turing mile or so In a S A shoe when
one really ought to be wearing a 4 C. In
getting tired and cross nnd sunburned
and freckled and In climbing over stone

Not a bit. not a little, wee bit. was my

when Jack proposes—lsn't that a sweet

i your real golfomanlac Is driving or put
ting. utter but a word, a miserable, lit

even, and off goes your head. Silence
and lots of It Is the only thing that will
win the approval of a golfomanlac like
Willie Bulger Knlblicks. but playing
slnglea with Jack under an oak tree
gorgeous with Ihr prismatic tints of
autumn, while one's subsidised caddie
la spending a quarter of an hour In a
vain hunt for the ball beyond the hill,
given one an opportunity for an exhibi
tion of "gentle craft" that ta really
great.
But here I am digressing at length
while Jack Is still holding my hand,
while Jack la whispering adjectives of
the superlative degree In my ear.
■•Dourest," he gays, "dearest, I"
Jack isn't an expert. He hasn’t even
the making of a good pluyer. He aays
things, you see. w hile he Is playing.
1 regain exclusive possession of my
left glove. I frown, and 1 *ay. "How
dare you?" We of our sex all say,
"How dare you?" In exactly the same
tone. It Is the first phrase we commit
to memory after our hair goes above
our shoulders and out skirts go below
our shoe tops. There is fentjnlne fierce
ness In our tone, indignation In our air
and Invitation In our eye?. So Jack
says.
"How dare you? Leave me. sir! This
Is no private lesson In palmistry,” I say
with withering scorn, and despite all
his cynicism Jnck withers, foregoes
palmistry for the time being and de
parts all of two feet.
Golf Is really becoming rather Inter
esting, but Just at this Juncture the
nearsighted, farsighted or sightless oad
die—may his particular tribe increase!—
tinds the ball, and with ten strokes each
we halve the hole ahead and proceed to
the second tee.
We both drive the balls over the stone
fence ahead. The caddie dives over the
fence after them and disappears from
mortal ken with Jack's small change
jingling In his Jeans.
“Dearest.” Jack says, “dearest”—
"That's exactly the word for it,” 1
say enthusiastically. "This Is Just the
dearest links I have ever scon—the very
dearest!" ,il
Jack looks disappointed, t He gnaws
! his mustache. He viciously beheads a i
i daisy with his club. He dot*- not swear

lie looks unutterably sad. as if his
dinner were cold or as if hfs pipe had
gone out and th* near*#! match were

How is leather work accomplished t
So simply that the veriest amateur may:
essay it. The leather, with a design
traced on paper laid on its upper sur
face. is affixed by drawing pins to A
wooden board. The design is then In
dented by passing a tool not unlike g
knitting needle aver the whole of tha
tracing or cutting it in with a short,
| sharp knife. Next the leather is re
moved from the hoard and sponged
with a damp sponge on the reverse sida
of the leather. The pattern is then
raised or embossed from the back by
judicious scraping and pressure and
finally modeled and softened down on
the front by laying the leather on t
slab ot slate, glass or marble and work,
i ing tools over the face of the leather,
, The embossed surface can be filled at
the back before modeling. If the relief
is to be high, by using wax or a mix
tttr<* of ry<? triesl find damp sawdust!
as a paste Whon dry. the pattern may
be * elnred <»r not. at th*' "ill "f th«
1 w orker, with stain or indelible ink.
