rt li to be a pliMiomennl year In koU
circles. The enthusiasm Is break-Ins
out early nnd promises to bo lasting.
This Is tiuo of lovers of tho samu nil
over the countiy, and 1b notably evi
dent nnions tho nieinberB of tho Coun
try club, whore the links are dally fre
quented by a ureal many vlsltois. The
weather of the pant week lias been
enough to beguile the denizen of the
most Kecluded cloister Into the sun
light, nnd It Is not strange that any
one who could find a few hours of leis
ure blithely hied himself away to the
beautiful hillside, whole the swelling
maple buds sent foith their ftagrance
nnd the green of the earth and the
trees seemed to come foi th as by the
tough of a magician's brush.
That extension of the ptieet railway
to the Countiy club, while It will bo a
gieat convenience. Is still a source of
regret for e rtaln ieaons. Although
but a short distance ftom the city, tho
Country club has been ho situated that
w'hen theie one seemed to be, In truth,
nfar out in the country, i emote from
the touch of the cltj's pressure and
din. It has seemed like the veritable
country, shut In by the stately tro2
burrleis and stretching far out In the
gieenest of sward that gave a sense
of nearness to nature Infinitely sweet.
The street car, welcome as Its service
will be at times, will change all that,
for with the street car will come the
festive picnicker to eat his sandwiches
and boiled eggs and throw his pnper
bag) and eggshells at tho veiy gates
of this miniature paradise.
Only the temporary greens nrc being
used at this time. The greens convnilt
tce'hones to allow tho us,o of tho per
manent gieens about the second week
In May, at which time the course will
bo formally opened by a club tourna
ment, the prlre for which will bo n
handsome silver cup.
The enthusiasm among the ladles Is
alio on tho Increase and exciting
matches are taking place dally.
On Wednesday a number of tho star
players of AVilkes-Uarre spent tho day
on the links and have reasons to feel
satisfied with tho scores made so early
In thu season when out of practice.

if HHK POINT OF VIEW fj
She was a little, sad-eyed woman,
nnd she sat in the back seat at tno
MethodlHt confcience. Women weren't
supposed to be among the elect In
their black frock coats and white
cravats In the front part or the chutcli,
but she vvub farther back thun tho
legulatlona demnnded nnd occupied
the uttermost corner of the last pew.
She had been there through every ses
sion nnd seemed to speak to no ono
except it mlnistet with bent shoulders
and thin, ginylsh hair which dropped
dejectedly on his cont collnr. The
coat was rt good one, for prenehers
must look lespectuble. but It was ill
tlttlng and slimy nt the seams. Ills
clothes showed that only the most
exacting, pnlnslnkliiff attention hnd
kept them piesentuble. Often he crime
to the back pew nnd a brief whispered
conversation ensued nnd tho fuded
face of the woman lighted up strange
ly as they spoke together. She was
so shabby, this frail, little woman.
Theie Is nothing In the wotld so shab
by as blown when It Is shabby. Black,
even If rusty nnd giny with wear, will
give nn effect of "company dress."
Blue has a look of Interest In life and
gray has a certain dlstlnetlin, while
green Is chcetful and plum color, even
In its last stages of dissolution, ltn
pntts an air of opulence, but worn,
dingy brown Is hopelessly pnverty
stt Icken
The minister's wife was all In brown
of the most depicsslng shade me
mateiial of her gown had never cost
mote than twenty-five cents a yaid
and was so old In tashlon that It was
almost modern, for It had n sou of
oveisklit till mound. Her bonnet had
oilgtnally been of the same hue, but
il had faded until it was a dull mud
color, with its cheap tlbbons and lor
lotn little feather. One time when
her bent, old minister lose to second
a motion, unimpoitnnt enough, her
eyes looked almost young nnd she
clasped her hands In nervous pride
on tho back ol the next pew.
M
When the blshon began to rend the
appointments the anxiety In her poor '
otu lace was pitiful to see und at least
one woman who knew something
nbout that long "lilac 1; list," ns a
facetious preacher called It. turned
away her head that she might not
see the painful look deepen.
Down In the fiont seats, where the
most prominent cleigymen congre
gated, were several who had known
all along that they weie to go back
or go on to fat, comfortable places, to
luxurious paisonages, to carved pul
pits facing caived pews In which sat
ilehly clad lonmegatlons waiting to
hear something pleasant nbout tlieiu-fci-lves.
The dnvs when these mlnis
teis had taken thought about what
they should eat or they should
dtink, or wheiewlthal they should
be clothed, lay so fur In tho
dim distance that they had faded
from memory. There were other eag
er, alert faces In which the morning
of youth still glowed, who exultant
knew that they had gained a foot
hold on the ladder reaching to su
premacy in their chosen life work. The
sunshine outside looked veiy bright
to them that April afternoon. Theie
weie still otheis, and from them, too,
the sympathetic eye snrank, for they
were old and white of hair and weary
of foot and brain. They had snug
gled in hard pastorates all the Ion,;
.vears and now in extreme age vvvr
dependent on a. meagre dole of churc'i
charity for mejo subsistence. Theie
was neither hope, nor fear, nor in
terest In their apathetic faces. For
them could be no uppolntment until
that which Another than the bishop
should make, when some minister
would sav over their dead faces:
"Blessed aie the dead who die in the
Luul." ,
The little, old woman in the back
seat listened with a painful lutent
ness to the bishop's voice. A few
minutes before sho had said, softly,
to the woman who came In und sat
by her side: "We do hope we'll get
an appointment to A this time.
Benjamin can't stand It as well as ho
used to, this preaching tluee times
un Sunday and riding o far. We
had to pay out so much foi medicine
lust year, and the dm lot, an,, thuio
are daughter Liza's chlldien that we
have to take caie of. Five bundled
dollars a year don't go far, specially
w hen you don't g. t it nil paid to you.
I haven't had a new bonnet In ten
eats," she udded, half apologetically.
Just then the bishop u-ad ti name
out loud and full and the Utile, old
vv (ilium's head dtopped down on the
next pew and teais made dingy spots
on her tnded blown diiss aero-s her
knee "Oh, dear" she half sobbed,
"it s the same old place nnd they'tv
so tired of ns. Tiny sav Benjamin
pleaches too long and talks through
his nose and they want u young man
with a stylish wife. Oh, dear! They
don't want us back again and they
huven'l ileal lj paid last veal's salary
I s'pose It's nil light." Then
her husband (nine down the aisle, his
long coat humping up nwkwuidly In
the back and she smiled nt him
brightly tliiough . ir ti-nis and the two
walked nut of 'he door, her hand
clinging to his sleeve.
