HERE is no worry or anxiety in rearing Baby healthfully and happily, even in a tropical climate, when Glaxo is used as Baby's food.

Glaxo is the food that has been used to rear the children in five Royal Nurserica. Court Physicians see that Royal Bables have the best and most nourishing food- that is why Glaxo has been chosen.

Give your Baby Glaxo, and watch the difference after: few days; see how restfully he sleeps, how contented he is and how steadily he increases in weight. Ask your Doctor!

GOLF NOTES.

[By R. H. H.]

The Races-dominated-last-week; not necessarily to the exclusion of golf, but at any rate rather to the exclusion of that whole-hearted yon. dentrated interest which makes a difference of about three shots a round. The empty course on Satur day afternoon seemed rather a re "proach" then "a" blessing, and ever on Sunday there were fewer starters

than usual.

•

It is not a psiut which crops up very often out here, but a member may want to play a competition

round with visitor to mark his eard. The rules in different clubs") vary on this point. In some clubs only another member may mark a card, in others the visitor must be a member of a recognised golf club, while I have played over a few easy going courses where anyone on earth could put the figures down and pledge his ignorance to their correctness. A bad provision this Inst, for apart from the fact that one occasionally meets i goller who is able to believe the thing which is not." it is not infreqitent for a knowledge of the rules to be neces sary during à competition round. So far as Faaling is concerned...
