Our First Defeat at Tennis.

On Friday afternoon last Mesars lddlns,
Davis, Swaiue and McAllister, representing
the Maryland Athletic Club of Baltimore
City won hotly disputed game of tennis on
the Aurora Cottage court, Thurmont,
against Messrs Seton, Casse'l, Hammett
and Valentine of this place. The match con
sisted of doubles, tbree out Of five and re
suited rs follows:

VS. n @ q -
Seton and Cassel TIC 49, So
swaine and McAl1ister, MACI GA, 10,
Hamme,t and Valentine, TTC\ 81, 6-1
The score shows how nard q battle was
fought in this that it required the fifth set in
each double to decide the match, but the
score does not show that our players were
within one point OF winning in the first
doubles, as the score in the fifth set, iddins
and Davis VS. Seton and Cassell at one time
stood 6.5 and the twelfth game 40 80 in favor
of the Thurmont players. A play by the
latter equally bad in intention and execution
made the game "dcuce", when the NJ. A. G.
players pulled themselves together, won
| that and the two succeeding games, which
| made it the set and the match.
Again in the second set Of doubles, Ham
NETT and Valentine went at them in the
| fourth set and won by the score of rs, tying
the match, but again the M. A. G. players
showed up reserve strength and won the
| fifth and deciding set.
A footing up of the total points scored in
the ten sets shows how evenly matched the
players were: in the five sets played by Id
| dins and Davis vs. Seton and Casseli, the
| former won % games to the latters 25, and
in the five sets played by Swaine and Nc
Allister vs. Hammett and Valentine, the for
mcr won "a games to the iatter's 49,, or by

wearing Black Stockings.

A frequent cause of trouble with the
feet is the> wearing of black stockings.
Care should be taken to select those with
white soles. as the dye is extracted by the
heat induced by confinement in the shoe
and acts as on irritant poison. Itching,
burning and swelling often are due solely
to this cause. To mitigrate the evil in
some degree the stockings should be
changed daily in summer and at least
three times during the week in winter.
The feet should be bathed every night in
warm water and bicarbonate of Soda
tablespoonful of the soda to basin of
water-letting them remain in the solu-
ton until it becomes cool. They must
be rubbed vigorously in drying and then
bathed with alcohol.-New York Tribune.
