To say that It will be a busy one Is to express but mildly the condition of uffnlrs at tho benutlful sylvan retreat. m I vasBSs I J In the Hist place, It Is the occasion of the. iinnum meeting, which is in Itself enough to draw thither a goodly company of club members. Then, It Is also the occasion of the postiioncd tournament for tho T II. Watklns' cup, which owing to tho descent of a mlnnture Hood last Saturday, was not ployed,. Dm Ing the afternoon the reg ular scheduled match, tho "Guessers" contest, will also be taken up.

The course Is In splendid condition, far better than was anticipated. It s like one fair velvety lawn, idling ,n every direction and now exquisite .beyond description In Its tender green, wtfli the rich, deep shadows beneath Uie trees add to the Corot-HUe effect ver the hillside. The "Guessers" contest, which lias inen arranged by Captain Iirooks, Is unique In some inspects. Instead, a.-, Lhad been been suggested, of having Lich contestant guess at his own score, has been decided that one person 11 he selected upon whom the guesses Oll be based, each golfer's guess will be recorded and the one making the nearest to the heore will receive the pilze, a flist clnss golf club. The eup offered by Ml T II. Wat kins as a tournament prize is a hand some specimen of the silversmith's art and w 111 be a valued treasure to the ltiekv vinnei.

There are no less than nine full-:Mgrd amatcui companies, with nnny mem bers In each, that oeeury the boards ul Intervals wlumever thi oppoiiunitv Is presented All, of couie or gifted with undoubted talent which would bu recognized on the Metropolitan stage at once we're merit anil not money or private Influence the renuisit"". In al most every individual case the ablll tins are such that the long and u-dluua intermediary steps taken ordinarily !n tho puccessive roles of super, villagers chorus, guards walking ladles, e te , up to the' pilnclpal character are meth ods of unnecet-saiv drudgery. Lack of education and careful tiulnliu would scare elv be notd. so stiong and un mistakable is the divine tlrr of genius. Tho vast lnci easing furore for going on the stage Is not to bn smiled at as It becomes moie apparei.t In this com munity. Instead of being an ambition which, piopcily eliiceted, may lead to some gteat advanlaeo to the one who Indulges In splendid hopes of dnzzllng the wot Id ot play-poors. It Is teison Rbiy certain to untlt him for the more useful employment for which he is probably tar bettiT oualllied. The famous tragedian iray bo bom but he is .lust lis surely made, by yeaio of patient and often tragically pathetic effort. Most frequently he comes from a laco of actors and has been familiar with the stage from babyhood. Not one in live thousand amateur btars ever peeps above the horizon. While the striving alter so-called aitistie ideals as exemplified by Mime as pialsevvorthy desiies to rHo above" the sot did level of woik-a-day Hie in the mines. the mills, the shops or tho stems and oltle 'S, it Is in fae't when shorn ot Its fiail glutei of tinsel, only un exag gerated conceit, an exaggerated desire to be admiied and to gain a livelihood In what seems to be a more hovvery path than thut In which circumstances suuound one. Because a gilt can stand In a fliend'b parloi and thillllngly re cite "Cm few .Shall Not Ulng To night," Is no infallible Indication that she possesses in that one capacity the passpou to enduilng fame or to even decent means of Htippoit. Be tausu a boy or a young man if you please tan give it chaiacter sketch or an extinct from Humlet In n manner which enchants alt his fem inine i datives espsclally his udmlr Ing cousins. Is not nn Incontiovertlblo ptoof that he can at once command a princely salary on tho stage. Because in a nt Ighboi hood whcio they are known and loved a company ot young people can present a little farea torn tdy so effectually as to convulse their fi lends with menlnent is no sure evi dence that they should resign their Piesisnt heild on perhaps humble por tions und make an attack on tho Ameilean theatie-lovoi. If the aver age young man spent the same amount ot time in perfecting his knowledge of some useful plain occupation that hs puts on the love javlngs of Lord Al gernon, or the silly If not worse than filly attempts at wit supposed to ema nate fiom a Bowery tough ho would have his foot on a pretty firm round of tho ladder to success. If tho aver age airl, who tries to imitate tho uup- mm ta W&..y&fcfr MX wife- vz M What Miss Lucy A. Hciser, a trained nurse of eight years experience and a graduate of the Homeopathic Hospital of Minneapolis, Minn., hero says of Talnc's celery compound vitally con cerns every suffering woman: "I am glad to testify to the merits of Paine's celery compound especially as a tonic In cases of convalescence. I haves noticed very satisfactory results vlth patients under my care tvhen Paine's celery compound was pre scribed." Tho above endorsement is corrobor ated by the experience of Mrs. Ilasel ton: "Wo have been using your Paine's celery compound In the Nazarene Home for some months, and it is with great pleasure that I can say that our aged people have invariably been beno llti"d by Its use. I have been using It myself, as has also my niece, and there lias been a marked Improvement In our health. I was very much run-down after the winter's hard work, but am ieellng very much better. I have rec ommended It to a number of friends outside" of tho Home, and they, too, have been gieatly pleased with the re sults. We shall never be without it In the Home." Sire. Jr. A. Uaselton, Man ager Nazarene Home, 2032-2034 Colum bia Ave., Philadelphia, Pa. Mrs. Chandler, President of the So ciety for the Promotion of Health, Chicago, III., says: "Too constant application to work has U times caused sick and nervous headache, veiy persistent and painful. At such times Paine's celery compound has afforded me eptlek relief, and T Unow of nothing that w ill take Its place " Luclnda B. Chnndler. positions stli-of a lino lady In the play and who, dulls much of her young beauty in learning her lines at night or attending late reheaisals, would ex pend a similar amount ot thought In endeavoring to please her customers in the stole, or In learning to do her work at the mill better than the other gills, she would find the path for her feet made not only pleas.inter and safer, hut more seeuie, mine lemuner atlvo. 4 4 It is a pathetic picture to see a fair young glil. with only her little talent and peihaeis a winsome face, become .stage-struck and with her pretty eves blinded by the glamor of the bright ar tificial glow of Ihe" amateur sti-5". and her cai.s composed by the plaudits of her friends, who aie as indlseilmlnat Ing and Incapable of leal judgment of her merits as Is she herself, go forth Into that false, alluilug, but most per nicious atmosphere. She Is often obstinate and self-willed, and, even If she have wNe adviseis, is too v aln and determineel to yield to their wiser influence. Unlike the soci ety girls, who may have Fung in some charily entertainment, and dazzled by the memory of till enthiislastlc tribute paid as much to their position and piestlge as to their talents, she ha not the potent social ties to hold her fast in the beaten track, she has not tho traditions of caste to stand about her as a powerful bariler, and she has not the immediate1 natural surroundings of adulation and gentleness and assured respect." She has the yeatnlng for all these, and little hope of satisfying tho Infinite hunger. The stage affouls at least a possible paiadlse wheio all the things she has missed will be hers. The ambition is Indeed one that has many eoccusi's, but whose promise is as false as fair. Letters havo been received fiom in numerable girls, all of whom are en tirely confident of their abilities to be come either pilma donnas in grand opeia or leading ladles In legitimate drama. .Some uio ill-spelled, and near ly all ate ciude In composition, but doubtless neither spelling nor compo sition has entered Into the heart of the stage-struck maiden to conceive as necessary to the repertoire of an act ress. They Impoitunately demand in formation as to the procedure. 4 A They want to know whether they slnll apply to Daly for an engage ment or whether it would be better to start out from Philadelphia; wheth er comedy pas better than tragedy, or vlco versa, whether it would be best to spend their savings In party gowns suitable for stage wear in bo clety plays or whether it would bo well to Insist that the lucky manager furnish tho outfit; etcetera, etcetera. There aro other letters which arc pathetic. Hcie Is one: Dear Madam: I wish jou would say something In tho paper about young girts In this town who want to go on tho stage. It does seem to mo there are hundreds of them. My daughter was as nlco and aulet a girl as over lived until sho got tills craze.
