PLAYING TENNIS.
Considerable Interest in the Game Is
Shown This Summer.

Just as soon as the Kaws leave for
foreign fields next week, the one amuse-
ment which will receive the greatest at
tention is lawn tennis. Already the
professionals are dragging out their
last summers equipment and taking in
ventory of the necessities for the season
of 1911. During the summer, several
new courts will be laid out and judging
from the inquiries and the interest
manifest, the beginners at the game
will be many this year.
1.-The tennis racket which is meeting
with approval and steady demand with
the experienced tennis players is the
Victor Varsity racket said H. M.
Starr, of the H. B. Howard Athletic
Supply company. 1.-THE Ayres Cham
pionship tennis ball has been adopted
by the National Lawn Tennis associa-
ton for the year 1911. We are in q
position to supply these goods at q
reasonable figure. Our line of shoes
black and white rubber soles as well
as the elk soled shoes is complete.
The fact that so many beginners are
equipping themselves for the season is
gratifying and we have tennis racket
for as low as $3.50, it's the club and g
first racket for the amateur.

COMPLEXION LOTION
MAKES ROSY CHEEKS

In writing for the Philadelphia Press
Mae Martyr, the famous writer on health
and beauty topics says: ANY woman
who desires rosy cheeks does the worst
thing IMAGINABLE by trying to color them
with powder or rouge. Everyone notices
that painted look and 1t only a question
of time when her face will be rough, sal
low-looking and beset with large, dirt
collecting pores.
solving four ounces spurTnax in one-half
pint hot water with two teaspoonfuls
Elycerine added, is far better than powder
or any other complexion beautifier. This
lotion does not show like powder and
gives the skin a clear, clean, wholesome
look that lasts much longer than when
powder is used. 1t removes the shiny,
oilv. sallow lock and leaves the skin
Gmooth, rosy and fresh looking"
