TENNIS RULES TO CHANGE

At the very beginning of the season the
executive committee Of the United States

ments. which makes IL necessary for the
competitors to ply their matches without

How to Put On Gloves.

Open and turn back the gloves to the thumb and powder lightly. Put the fingers in their places, not the thumb. and carefully work them on with the first finger and thumb of the other hand until they are quite down; never press between the fin gers. Pass the thumb into it's place with care and work on as the fingers. Turn back the glove and slide it over the hand and wrist. never pinching the kid, and work the glove into proper place by means of the light est pressure, always allowing the kid to slide between the fingers. In fin ishing care should be taken in fas- tening the first button.

Alum Baking Powder Is Wholesome.

Dr Herman Reinbold the expert German chemist, iR a recent official report concerning Baking Powders, declares that pure alum baking pow der is better and less injurious than the soscalled cream of tartar powders. He says that if the quantity of alum contained in sufficient quantity of baking powder for batch of bread or cakes for an ordinary family, be con centrated 10 one mouthful of food, and taken into the stomach of any one person, no matter how delicate, it could do no harm. On the contrary, alum is wholesome in proper quanti- ties. This is undoubtedly the reason the State of Missouri quickly repealed a law that prohibited the manufacture of the most wholesome of all baking powders. So much for Alum Baking Powders

VANDERBLT'S NEW AUTO.
1t is Planned to Make $50 Miss an
Hour.

Mr.. Alfred G. Vanderbilt is having
constructed secretly an automobile
which he hopes will be the fastest ma
chine in the world. He is an automo-
bile enthusiast and is determined with
the aid of the wealth at his command to
break the present record. The ma
chine which he is having built is esti-
mated to be capable of developing 15o
miles an hour with $50 horsepower.
Such speed is the equivalent of 21S feet
for every clock tick; 1t, means a mile
in % 2-5 seconds. The present mile
record is 80 AS seconds made by H. l..
Bowden, at Ormond Beach, Fla, last
February.
Should Mr.. Vanderbilt be able to at
tain such extraordinary speed with this
automobile it will mean that it will go
faster than anything in the world
heretofore. The best time ever made
on railroad was mile in 80 seconds;
this was on the Plant System on run
from Fleming to Jacksonville, Florida,
when five miles were covered at the
rate of 120 miles per hour. Not only
will it go faster than the speed ma
chimes of to-day but the new automo-
bile flyer promises to carry its driver
faster than man has ever travelled be-
fore in the world. In fact it is stated
that even few birds could fly at such a
pace
