Affronted Golfers.

Do They Swear.

Everyone may not be wiiling to enuorse the olu Scotch lady’s die turn on swearing. ‘‘Nae doot,” she admitted, “it is a gran’set-off to conversation.” it is generally supposed, however, that every

guber would be ready to recommend an occasional "damn” as a grand reliet to the feelings, The news that a man was fined at Home “for using bad language in the he.iring of members of a golf club,” gives the lie lo such a supposition. Our golfers are vindicated. They never use a big, big D- —, and they cannot endure to hear one. No more r hall it be said of the man walking the links: “Some of his words were not Sunday School words.” It is terrible to think of the perils besetting this superlatively temperate body of men. Even in the vicinity of the course their ears are not safe from the blast of profanity. We can only commend the prompt action of the police in protecting from contamination this last refuge of the pure in tongue.
