The New sTwfst" In Tennis.

Some Of the descriptions Of the
'twist" service which recently obtain
ed prominence owing to the visit of
Messrs. Ward and Davis to England
are amusing, to say the least.
One writer describes it as service
wherein the ball after striking the
ground refuses to rise again and slides
across the court until the energy i'm
parted to it by the server is expended.
Still another states with detail how the
ball after having passed over the net
into the receivers court bounds back
again without giving the receiver Of
the service chance to return it.
In reality the twist" service causes
the ball the instant it strikes the
ground to fly at almost right angles to
the course of the serve. The reason for
this is the downward twist impaired
the ball. together with side motion at
the moment the ball is leaving the
racket.
The effect of such a service is some
what similar to the "out drop" of a
baseball pitcher, which causes the ball
to drop suddenly as it passes the plate
and curve outward at the same time.
Only few Of our American racket
wielders have as yet mastered thor
oughly the intricacies Of the twist"
service, but without doubt next year
will see the service used by number
of the leading players. This service is
physically very severe on the player
using it because it calls into play mus
cles seldom used in playing lawn ten
mis-, and for this reason II no other the
innovation will gain popularity slowly.

\ Rapid as has been the advance of
medical science along many lines, it
is only in recent years that remedy
has been Discovered for one of the
most dreadful of nervous diseases that
afflicted children-St. Vitus dance.
This and other nervous disorders
that cause the pale and wan faces and
peevish, irritable dispositions of SO
many children can now be scien-
tifcally treated by a remedy that
strikes at the root of the disease by
renewing the impoverished blood and
strengthening the nerves.
Words Of commentator for this
remedy come from all parts of the
civilized world. This is the interest
ing story told by Mr.. and Mrs Chris
topher Armstrong, of Jefferson, Okla.
sour youngest daughter was for
three years afflicted with St. Vitus,
dance, and we almost despaired of
finding relief in medical treatment.
She was SO helpless that she had to be
fed and would fall over at times and
be unable to rise.
"We had heard and read great
deal about Dr. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People, and, as last resort,
determined to try them. The effect
was alomst miraculous. From the
first box there was noticeable i'm
provement and by the time she had
taken six boxes she was almost we'll.
Altogether she took about a dozen
boxes, and by the time she was l;
years of age, was strong and healthy,
