LOST BALL.

Two golfing Btories, one of which is true, and the other— -perhaps. A golf ball was recently driven, at a golf tournament at " Crawf ordsville, into a bird's nest. The player, &trs. Galen Blackford, climbed tire ■ tree, played her ball out of the nest on to the green, and then holed out in one putt. What the birds thought, I do not know. The second incident is related by the reader who has drawn my attention to the above incident, and attempts to go one better. (That is why I have queried it, because we are apt to imagine things, are we not. when we try go one better? Ask any fisherman.) This reader states that she was stirring the Christmas pudding shortly before Christmas, and had the windowopen. A golf links is adjacent to her house. Suddenly a ball flew in at the window, plump into tho 'pudding. She left it there, and, on the 25th. served tho golfer who had. made the shot with his lost ball! Well, I flare say stranger things have happened!
