As You Please.

In the ancient times there lived a
wonderfully wise man, of whom it was
said that he could answer correctly
any question put to him. There was
one, however, who thought himself
clever enough to outwit the sage. This
man took a poor, captive bird ana
clasped 1t so closely In his hand tina!
only the head and tail were visible.
"Tell me-" said he to the renowned
guesser of riddles. 'is the bird which
hold in my hand alive or dead?"
If the answer were Dead" thought
this artful plotter, he would just open
his hand and let the bird fly. If the
answer were "Alive" he would with
one little squeeze crush the poor bird
to death.
But the wise man proved himself
equal to the occasion and replied. 1T
is as you please"
Each one holds within his or her
grasp the fair bird of life. Which is it
to be-a blessing or a bane? 1t is "as

TENNIS is ANCIENT.
The Game Had It's Origin In the Old
Days of Kniahthood.


By many people tennis Is thought to
be an essentially modern game, but In
reality it is probably one Of the most
ancient ball games and was a sport
long, before cricket was dreamed Of.
Though undoubtedly not existing dur
ing the Arthurian period, tennis, or, as
it was called, "tenez," Is mentioned
in the Arthurian legends, written in
1900, and tie knights of the round ia
BILE were pictured as engaged In the
sport when the weather was too hot
for Journeys or jousts.
From a simple beginning and through
many centuries, the intricacy of the
games rules have been developed
writes a contributor to the London
Times. Its present name seems to be
a corruption for the term "tenez,'
which the server used in the same way
ready" is called out now. In the be-
ginning the name was jeu de paume.
taken from the fact that the ball was
struck with the hands instead of with
q racket. Later the hand was incased
in a glove, and still later the glove was
covered with strings running criss
cross, from which condition there was
but a short step to the short handled
racket.
In feudal times the courts were mere
ly open grass plots, oftentimes the
lawn Of a castle, and not till late in
the seventeenth century was the court
backstops. Now most Of the modern
English and French courts are entirely
inclosed with four walls and roof.
