THE CADDIE AS HUMORIST.

As a student of human nature in its varied moods, and especially in its least guarded moments, the golf caddie has opportunities which fall to few; and those who know him best scarcely know which to marvel at most the keeriness of his perception or the terse, graphic way in which he gives expression to it:

This is more particularly true of the caddie north of the Tweed, who

is not only a shrewd student of men, but an unconscious humorist of a very refreshing type. Ask him to 'describe any one of his patrons, and he will sketch him for you to the life in a sentence as clever as it is often unflattering.

it's a gran' set-off to the convairsa- "I'm thinkin' ye'll no' beat the tion."

But there is a time for "swearin'"' as for most other things, and it is well to keep strong language in check when it interferes with the game. This at least was the opinion of a caddie whose employer had been making the air quite sulphurous with his language, with disastrous effects on his play. "Man. major," said the censor at last, unable to suppress his protest any longer, if you wad keep your tongue aff the ba' and your e'en on it, you would play better."

This however, was not the view of another cad ie who was accompany ing a young divine on one of his firs: rounds of the links. At each foozled shot the cleric ser his teeth more grimly, and grew more parple in the face, until at last his companion could stand it no longer. Out wi

DISCONCERTING.

Equally disconcerting was the answer given by another of the clan. His master had been playing simrie disgracefully, and partly by way of apology, partly hoping for a word of encouragement, he turned to his caddie and said, 'I'm playing abominably. Did you ever see a worse player?" The boy remained silent, with a far-away look, as it absorbed in thought. *Hзve you ever known a worse player?" the
