coNGENlAl WORK
And Strength to Perform II.

A person in good health is likely
to have genial disposition, ambition,
and enjoy work.
On the other hand. II the digestive
organs have been upset by wrong
food. work becomes drudgery.
Until recently" writes a Washing
ton girl, Il was a railroad stenog-
rapher. which means full work every
day.
Like many other girls alone in q
large city. lived at a boarding house.
For breakfast 1t was mush, greasy
meat, soggy cakes, black coffee, etc.
After few months of this diet
used to feel sleepy and heavy in the
mornings. My work seemed a ter
rible effort, and / thought the work was
to blame-too arduous.
"At home / had heard my father
speak of young fellow who went
long distances In the cold on Grape
Nuts and cream and nothing more for
breakfast.
Il concluded II It would tide him
over mornings heavy work. it might
help me, SO on my way home one
night bought a package and next
morning I had Grape-Nuts and milk
for breakfast.
II stuck to Grape-Nuts, and in less
than two weeks / noticed improve
ment. I can't just tell how well
felt. but / remember used to walk
the IL blocks to business and knew
how good it was simply to live.
"As to my work-well, did you eve..
feel the delight of having congenial
work and the strength to perform IT?
That's how felt. truly believe
there's life and vigor in every grain Of
Grape-Nuts."

CRACK TENNIS MEN
ARE TIRED OF
IMPOSTS
Handicap Tournaments Los
Best Players on Account
of Big Penalties
BY Grant Smith

The handicap doubles tournament
scheduled to be played on the park
courts today drew an unusually small
enrolled. The lower class men will
have an inning. as the championship
class seems to be without representa-
tion. The most heavily handicapped
team will be only Is behind scratch.
The position OF honor fell to Fred
Adams and G. p. Lytton.
The absence of the first class play
ers in due to two reasons. One is the
absence from the city of Mclaughlin
Melville Long and Gardner, and the
other is that the cracks have become
tired of carrying the heavy imposts
that have been shouldered on them in
the past. The tendency of late has
been to increase the chances of the
poorer players in handicap tourna-
nlents with the inevitable result that
the ever increasing handicaps have
driven the best players from this style
Many of the cracks have been COM
planning that the handicapper has
treated them too severely. To offset
this contention one has but to men
tion the fact that a large majority OF
the handicap events In the past have
been won by the most heavily handi-
capped teams
The champions and ex-champions
figure that they have little to gain
In the way of honors In handicaI
events and as the ever increasing han
dicaps tend to make their work hard
er, they have about come to the con-
clusion that handicap events are hard
ly worth while.
While the idea is to give every en-
trant in a handicap event an equal
chance to win, the first class men are
tnquestionably entitled to more con-
sideration than the poorer players. II
the cracks decide to participate in
only the championship and scratch
events the game will suffer consider
ably; not only will the minor events
lose in interest but the poorer players
will find their advancement less rapid
IL they oppose players of their own
caliber only
The holders of the directors cups
which will go to the winner of TO-
days event. are M. A. Peck and E. j
jacob. They are the only team In
todays competition who have theil
names on the trophies. The cups have
been won once each by Sparrow and
Pearson, James and Mclaughlin ano
Ambrose and Hotchkiss.
Play will be resumed today in the
continuous tournament started at the
California club last Sunday. AS Nc
of town play will be confined to the
first. second, third and fourth classes
The defeat of Gardner and Long III
the doubles at DIAL came as a surprise
to local followers of the game. They
were put out in the second round BY
Bundy and Bell. The southern cracks
beat the local players in straight sets

FIRST CRIcKET GAME

The first cricket game of the season
will be played at noon today at the
Alameda grounds between the San

young players who will take the places
of the veterans who have expressed
their intention of retiring The best
of the old brigade will be ready for
action. however. such players as Tiede-
mann, Peterson and Roberts having al
ready begun practice.
The Pacific club has lost most Of IFS
strongest men and will present an AL
most entirely new lineup this season
Harry Elliot has gone over to the BAR
barbians; Wilkes is now a resident az
Los Angeles Dan Jameson is also in
the southern part Of the state. and
Lannowe will not be seen on the field
again. Wilding will captain the team

tain.

troll of the track and will have the ap-
pointing of all officials that will serve

ria jockey club directors will be the

tion of entry clerk. paddock judge and

in time to preside at the barrier.
Inducements will be made to horse
