EASY TENNIS MATCH
Pickman Wins From Burden
in One of Most Exciting
Rallies Ever Seen.

NEWPORT. u. a.. Aug. ia-IAwp ten
mis- balls were flying across the nets and
bounding on the sodden courts IN tho
opening matches of the thirty second
national lawn tennis championship be-
fore the sun was above the trees around
the Casino courts to-day. With nearly
hundred matches in the first and sec
ond rounds to be run of during the day,
the committee urged the players TO make
an early start, and some of the frst
clashes were brought off within an hour
after breakfast.
Interest in the forenoon round
centred in the match on the champion
ship court between q. s. Touchard and
r. ID. Little, both OF New York. OF the
pair which viii defend the national
doubles championship tomorrow Tou-
chard was a slight favorite before the
match began.
Another interesting contest was ex-
pected between A. s. Dabney and s. II.
Harris of Boston, and also between
between George II. Gardner jr. of Bos-
ton and r. Il. Sulloway OF Concord.

The younger player was far off hi
game and although he showed dashes o
brilliancy he was unable to pass Lfttl'

II One of the most interesting matche
; was between II. NJ. Pickman Of Lo

A Rose Year.

The charm of artificial flowers, and es-
pecially of the rose has never been great
er than this year. In wreaths. in cum
ming little circles, in posies in clusters, In
trails and in single blossoms, soft and
large, and colored with all the perfection
which nature herself can give, the rose
this year has had wonderful vogue.
and one does not in the least weary Of 1t.
One of the prettiest toilets recently seen
was chosen by bride for her maidens,
in silk of a sweet shade Of yellow. made
very simply, with q yelling of chiffon to
the knees, round which ran trail of lit
tie yellow banksia roses with their leaves.
The same roses outlined the bertha of
yellow chiffon, and a cluster of the fow-
ers nestled in the belt. White tagal hats
wreathed with roses were worn, but the
same frock will be charming in the even
ing with yellow ribbon twined in the hair
and caught by knot of roses.
Another pretty frock for bridesmaid
was chosen in pink satin yelled with chif-
fon and caught up pannier fashion by a
ring of pink roses and forget-me-nots. A
blue satin belt with little flowers and a
hat trimmed with satin ribbon and flower
motifs completed the toilet. Equally
sweet was a white frock with pink satin
roses nesting in the chiffon frill and
trails Of tiny roses encircling the figure
and outlining the sleeves and fichu.

HOMES FOR WOMEN.
BY Ruth Cameron.

Homes are mostly for women.
They are managed chiefly by women.
lived in longer time by women and
cared for almost entirely by women.
/ am sure no one will deny these facts.
Why, then, is not more attention paid
to woman and her convenience in the
building of homes and the manufacture
of household furnishings?
A friend of mine built house. BY her
thrift she helped her husband earn and
save the money for it. and then, because
he was so much absorbed in his bus-
ness. she was given the chief charge of
building the new home. And being an
original woman she did not feel obliged
to build it exactly as men had built the
thousands Of. other homes in her city.
Instead. she Incorporated into it innu-
merabIe little features which made it a
better place for women to live and work
in than the average house.
For instance. she has big linen closet
upstairs in which are several long draw
ers long enough to hold a skirt laid out
at full length. Any woman will appre-
ciate the convenience of that. And how
easily such an arrangement. might be
made in almost any house. But how sell
dom it is!
several inches higher than the average
sink. What is the need" she says, "of
having sink so low that have to stoop
to do my work there, when it costs no
more to build it a comfortable height"
Another thing on which this woman in
sisted was that the architect should give
her a room downstairs for a sewing room.
It is just wee bit of a room with only
space for a sewing machine, chest of
drawers, table and chair or two, and
big window, with very pleasant pros
pect, but the saving in trips over the
stairs or in clutter in the big living room
is enormous.
These are some of the ways in which
one bright woman who was given a
chance improved on masculine architec-
ture. Women everywhere ought to be
given more to say about BODYBUILDING
and ought to exert themselves to think
and say and act more than they do on
this very important subject.
And the result would be not only to
make their own individual homes better
places for women to live and work in.
but to improve the pattern of the ready
made homes which are being man-bullt
by the thousand all over this country.
Nor should woman stop at influencing
architecture; she should also do all she
can to influence manufacture in so far
as it touches her. For instance, am
appalled, at the heavy teakettles which
are sold to foolish women. who daily
oyertax their strength in lifting them
Women ought to put an end to the man
ufacture of such articles by refusing to
buy them.
Again, look at the difference in labor
between making a high or low bed. There
is no excuse for these back breaking low
beds. A bed has to be made as well as
slept in. and manufacturers should re-
member that, and when they fail to
should be taught a lesson.
They tell us that the American man
will give the American woman anything
at all she wants to ask for!
7 cts learn to ask for houses and house
hold furnishings that shall be more eff
cient from a feminine point of view.
