The American Golf Enthusiast
Usually Chooses Short Skirt.
Mannish Shirt and Sweater.
HlLE linen is so often
w chosen for the tennis frock
by the French dressmakers
who take the making of real
sports clothes seriously. for the
golf costume they choose woolen
material. Redfern makes a cos-
tume consisting of s woolen skirt
and jumper. The idea is of course
that golf being a more deliberate
sort of game does not heat the
player as tennis does. Moreover
there are always frequent inter-
vals of repose with the golf player
when the linen frock worn in ten-
nis might leave one a trifle chilly.
But the American woman has a
persistent dislike of wool nest her
skin. due doubtless to our warmer
climate. While she may play in
a woolen sweeter she want. to
wear a washable shirt beneath it.
So the favorite costume of the
American golf player seems to con-
sist of some sort of straight. short
sport skirt. a mannish shirt and a
sweater. either of the slip-on or
the jacket type. A plain felt hat
finishes the ensemble.
The honors seem to be divided
between skirts of the strictly
wrap-around sort and those of the
pleated variety.
It is a fact that has been corn-
mented u on recently that the
knickerboc or which gave promise
of such usefulness as a sport gar-
ment has fallen so flat when it
comes to golf and tennis. You
may not agree with the statement.

LENORE
Poo. is in reality the Spanish
transformation of one of the
most ancient of feminine names—
Helen. Its original root was "Hel-
ios." the Greek sun-got who drove
his heavenly chariot around the
heavenly vault day by day. the
name signifying light and bright-
noes.
Every language. practically. has
brought its distinguishing mark to
the original name. and Lenor is one
of the most beautiful and musical of
the derivatives. In Italy, Leonora
is one of the forms. Eleanor in Eng-
land. Eilseu in Ireland. and so on.
The original Spanish was ”more.
mADE famous in this country by
in which the "n" gradually displaced
the “m." '
The jewel assigned to bearers of
this name is the beautiful yellow
iacinth—a stone formerly carried by
travelers to insure them against
accident and disease. A fantasy
associated with this gem is that it
warns its wearer of approaching
danger by growing pale in color.
and it also is supposed to guarantee
protection from bolts of lightning.
The lucky day or Lenore is Sunday
and six is her lucky number. To
dream of her natal stone the yellow
jacinth is into reted to mean sue-
csss-ln any on mkhrg she may be
interested in at the time.

alone in his private office we
ing hopelessly at the litter of
papers on the desk before him. The
clerks in the outer oihcs were gone
—-he had said that he would lock up
himself. And there he sat. with the
business which he had built up by
the labor of years. appanntly. crum-
bled in ruin around him. He thought
of his wife and of his daughter Katy.
the young. the fair. the form Oii.
if Katy had been well married and
settled in life before this happened!
Orin heard the door of the outer
edice open and close, a firm stsp'on
the floor. and into his dejected pres-
ence came Clayton Taft. ‘young.
athletic. buoyant. emanating vitality
and embodying prosperity. The'ccn-
treat between the broken m.mwn
suddenly old. and the rich young
man rejoicing in his strength. was
striking.
“Hello!" cried Clayton. "Saw
your light. Mr. Tolland. and lust
dropped in to ask if you know
whether Katy is going to be at. home
tonight. She’s such a society butter-
fly that it's hard to find her in. And
I—I've got something important I
want to say to her. But what's the
matter? You look as if you had lost
the lost friend you had in the world."
“I have." replied Orin, "or shall
shortly. I expect-4m- ths truth is I
am a broken man." And he waved
his hand toward the papers on the
desk before him: ”If you have
anything serious to say to my
'daughter it is but just that you
should know this."
"WM." said Clayton, "what I
want to talk to your daughter about
couldn't possibly be aifecwd by your
financial standing. It's just a little
personal matter. But tell me just
what is the difficulty. You know I
have the reputation of being a rather
long-headed person when it comes to
business. Tell me your symptoms
and let me play doctor."
Orin was just longing to pour out
his woes to someone. and for the
next two hours he and Clayton were
in executive session. ‘
When. finally. the younger man
threw down the last of the many
papers which he had been esaniinlng
and discussing with Orin he said:
"Well. now the thing is as clear as
a bell. It’s just a matter of tiding
over for awhile and then your finan-
cial bark will sail in prosperous
seas.”
“Just so," replied Orin, “and it
would take fifty thousand dollars to
‘do this tlding over. Where am I to
get it? I don't dare ask the bank to
discount notes for me to that amount
e—they wouldn’t do it."
"Oh, so to that. I’ll let you have
the money." said Clayton. "Main
out your note and I'll make out my
check; Don't know as I have enough
on call to meet it; but I'll see that
there is enough tomorrow before
noon.. .Follow out the line we have
agreed upon and you'll be all right
in six months. And now as to my
direction-will Katybe at home to-
. night} do you know?”
"No. not tonight," replied Orin.
"but ebb will be tomorrow night."
When he started to express his
gratitude to Clayton for his timely
help the yoiflg man cut him short
with: “Oh. that's all right. Tell
Katy I'll be at the house at nine
o'clock"——and was gone. ,
Left alone again Orin fell once
more into a brooding state. Hewae
not as happy as a man should be
who has just been rescued from
bankruptcy. He was thinking of
Katy. He had no doubt of what
Clayton had meant when he said he
had something of importance. some-

Taft did. ' .
Mrs. Toiland was a colorless little
woman. dearly loved and. [closely
sheltered by her husband, in whom
she thought the sun rose antitset.
He never talked‘over serious matters
with her—she would not have undir-
stood. But Katy was another
propositiono—she could always under-
stand. So when he reachedhome he
got Katy alone in the library and
told her the whole story. Her face
went very White. but she spoke no
word until he had finished. Then:_
“Yes. it must be. But say no more
tonight. I don't feel as if I could
hear another word." And
her father on the forehead she left
the room. .
The next night Claytth called.
"Why so glum and stately. fairest
of Katydida?" cried he as he breesed
in. “I've something to ask you
which will take the wrinkles from
your brow."
“I think I know what you are
about to say.” replied Katy, "and I
consent."
“What!” exclaimed Clayton. "You
know already? Has Jennie Mans-
field been ahead of me? Jennie and
I have been keeping it a dead secret.
She told me. to ask you. So you'll
be bridesmaid. eh? The wedding
comes off the twenty-fifth of next

Katy made the prettiest brides-

later Richard Bostwick was married

But water is a fluid. It has fluid

it is. you remember. a vast crowd of

Why. then, does electricity meet a
resistance analogous to fluid trio--

Here is where the electron theory
comes in. The electric current is
really a stream of electrons. As
they pass through the wire they are

metal in the wire. Somevof them
