A GOLF STORY.

It was the office of a great sporting newspaper, and the golf editor was taking a brief holiday. In his absence the inquiries from readers, which the golfing man answered through his correspondence column were handed to the racing editor. "Which is the better course," wrote an ardent follower cf the royal and ancient game, "to fuzzle one's putt or to fetter on the tee?" The turfman tilted back his chair and smoked five cigarettes before taking his pen in hand. Then, when he had come to a decision on the weighty problem, he wrote as follows: "Should a player snaggle his iron, it is permissible for him to fuzzle his putt; but a better plan would be to drop his guppy into the pringle, and snoodle it out with a niblick."
