THE GOLF SQUINT AND THE GOLF WALK. The Doleful and Depressed Expres sions of Most Women—The Effort to Overcome This a Duty.. The outdoor life, no less tfian the indoor life is bound to leave its mark on a woman’s face and bearing. By this I do not refer only to the effect of wind and sun on the com plexion or of fresh air on the general health. 1 mean as well that the oc cupation to which one most devotes oneself will in time alter the express ion of the countenance. Recognizing this, it behooves the woman who takes up any outdoor sport to avoid the snares connected with such a sport. It is not long since the papers were full of what was known as the “bicy cle face.” There was no necessity for describing it. We all knew it as soon as we saw it. An eager, anxious look, a straining forward look, some times an expression almost of ter ror,—it did not make a pleasant im pression upon any one who saw it. The bicycle face was not the property of woman alone, men had it, too, but oddly enough, it was seldom seen on children. They, bless their hearts! were too busy enjoying their wheels to have any powers to waste on worrying about anything. That the bicycle face was not a necessary accompaniment of wheel ing was proved by the fact that it was not universal. More than that, it was usually to be seen upon the unaccustomed and timid rider. This was perhaps, natural, but when the transient expression was permitted to become permanent, it was either the result of carelessness or of a lack of appreciation of the effect even a passing mood may have on the feat ures, if the mood is repeated fre quently enough. Perhaps it is a matter of course that when a timid person learns to ride a wheel the lack of self confiden ce should for the time being show in the face, but this lack of self confi dence is not an abiding thing. Un fortunately, however, the look some times is. One can see that in other than outdoor pursuits. Facial tricks are easily acquired and even when recognized are hard to shake off. They are worse when their owner fails to know they are in existence. I was amused one evening to ob serve the expressions of the faces of several persons who were sitting about a room engaged in various pursuits. At one side of the room an elderly man was writing. All the while the pen moved his lips moved also,—not repeating the words he was writing, but twisting back and forth in a measured fashion, as if the brain had their counterpart in the movements of the lips. Another member of the family read a book in which she was deeply interested and the play of the au thor’s fancy was indicated by the motions of the reader’s eyebrows. WTien there was something a little unusual, or amusing, the brows went up almost into the hair, when there was pathos or matter for indignation the brows were drawn together. It was no wonder that the forehead was a maze of creases, longitudinal and vertical. Next to the reader sat her sister crocheting. In and out went the needle and every time the hook drew the wool through a loop the lips were pursed up. While the mother of the girls, who sat sewing, snapped her eyes energetically with every stitch she set. Perhaps this may seem an exag geration, but let any one who ques tions the possibility of such a set of expressions In one household take the pains to give a little study to the facial tricks of those about her. Possibly the group I instanced may have had especially mobile counte nances, but there are plenty of others. When we see this sort of thing pro voked by ordinary Indoor avocations, is it any wonder that a more exciting pursuit leaves its mark on the face? While bicycling was one of the first sports to receive the honour of having an expression named after it, other sports have followed in its wake. 1 do not refer now to the ex pression gained by athletes. The look of the football player, may like other other occupations, have a whole range of expressions of its own. And there are other outdoor ways of life that leave their mark,—a mark that is not objectionable. We all know the gaze of the sailor or of the man accustomed to looking off over wide spaces of prairie. There is noth ing unpleasant about these. It is when the bicycle face means a set look of anxiety or of peevishness. when the fixing with the eye of the hole to which the ball must be driv en means the golf squint, when the long stride across the links has pro duced the slouching ungraceful gait which has been dubbed the golf walk, that it becomes necessary to give the subject of these idiosyncrasia some serious consideration. There can be no good thing with out the defer s of its qualities. Our care must be not to let the defects outweigh the qualities or to permit a really admiralde thing to do us harm as well as good. Take bicycling, for instance. The wheel may have seemed to lose Its popularity for a briof time, but it lias come back to stay,—not, as some one says, as a fad, but as a homely cus tom. The day has probably ; one by when people go bicycle mad,—al though when one sees the wheels of the present day one can pardon an occasional attack of mania,—but the time has arrived when the bicycle is a matter of course, not only for getting about the country on errands and the like, but also as a factor in developing a higher physical stand ard. Anything that will make strong er hearts, that will stimulate torpid organs and clear the brain is bound to have the support of thinking peo ple everywhere. A horse or an au tomobile may take one about and awaken a love of outdoors, but a horse or an automobile is not within the reach of persons of moderate means. Therefore the wheel posses ses advantages for the everyday man and woman that can he offered by no other means of locomotion. So good a thing as this should not sink into condemnation because those who use it are too weak or t<x) care less to conquer the few drawbacks connected with it. There is no reason why a bicycle should be the cause of a bowed, hunched-up back or of an unpleasant countenance, if its riders will pay as much attention to their attitudes and their expressions as they do to the costumes they wear when riding. The case is the same with golf, “the royal game.” More and more it grows in popularity. The business man finds in it an outdoor sport which gives him exercise and amusement at the same time, and the girl who plays golf has become a recognized feature in our social outdoor life. The game is worthy of all commendation and is doing the work of a life saving sta tion for men who could never before be coaxed from their offices during the daylight hours. But is it to leave an unsightly mark upon those who partake of its benefits? Shall that which is admirable on the golf course be transported to the street and the drawing room? Shall the half closed eye which scans the space to be covered in the next drive be fixed up on one’s vis-a-vis at the dinner table? Shall our girls and men take their afternoon stroll or their promenade to church with long slouching steps, dropped shoulders and swinging arms. The poise that is acquired by shouldering the bag of golf clubs or by posing oneself on the links. Yet if one must choose between these and the dispirited droop of mouth and shoulders that are found among the women who live the stay- at-home life and know nothing of the joys of free exercise in the good open air, let us, for the love of mercy, have anything that the bicycles or the an as to the remarkable powers of Hyo- mei to cure catarrh. The complete Hyomei outfit costs but $1.00, consisting of an inhaler,, dropper and sufficient Hyomei to last several weeks. This will effect a cure i in ordinary cases, but for chronic; and deep-seated cases of catarrh, longer use may be necessary, and then extra bottles of Hyomei can be obtained for 50c. It is not alone the best (it* might be called the only) method of curing catarrh, but it is also the most economical. The Gaffney Drug Co. have so much confidence in the power of Hyomei to cure catarrh, that they will for a limited time, sell this medicine under their personal guarantee to refund the money if the purchasers can say that it did not help them. ASK US ABOUT V In the Jnnfrle. mobiles or golf or tenuis can give . The one, at least, is a sign of a althful mode of life, however much 3 may deprecate the form it takes, it why should one have either? Already I have tried to indicate in ese papqrs that one need not saeri- e a complexion in order to win pro- iency in outdoor sports. The small lount of care that is given to the in will keep it in tolerable order d the attention that is bestowed ion the expression will not lie rown away. Only recently have r women come to appreciate all at fresh air and systematic exercise I) do for their health and looks, icre are still too many of them ho neglect to lose attractiveness id youtli and strength sooner than ke the pains to go out of doors. It mild make matters Infinitely worse those who have been converted to e gospel of exercise and oxygen lould do their case harm by display- g expressions and habits which pre- dice the stay-at-homes against the irsults to which they should be won. Do not try to cure catarrh by tak- g drugs into the stomach; it cannot > cured in that manner. The only ay in which this too common dis- ise can be cured is through a direct iplication that will kill the bacilli catarrh and prevent their growth.

A passerby may drop in and be impressed. He may tell his neighbor, and he in turn may tell somebody else. That is one way, and there are some merchants who today think it is good enough.
