WORLDS TENNIS CHAMPION
 IS NOT. YET DECIDED.
Williams Defeated Mclaughlin But He
 Has Not the Record Behind Him.

Who is the worlds tennis cham pion7 Three weeks ago not a dissent ing voice was raised when the name of Maurice Mclaughlin was men toned for the highest place in the tennis world. Today plenty of argu- ments may be supplied to prove that the California comet is not supreme. The victory of R. Norris Williams, 2d, at Newport has proved not to be alone one of the big surprises in a year where surprises have been com mon in sports. It also puts the ten- his championship in the same class as the football title in the days when Harvard and Princeton did not meet, or the college baseball honors at the present time
 Three weeks ago the playing of Mo- Loughlin ranked so far ahead of the playing of Williams that the Phila- delphian was rated g. poor second to the Californian. Then came the up set at Newport when Mclaughlin could not win a set against the same man who had been easy for the Aus tralasians, though Mclaughlin beat both. Critics at the Newport match declare that if Williams had shown any such form against the Australas- ians as he showed against Mclaughlin the cup would remain in the United Loughlin had shown the form against the Antippdeans that he displayed against Williams the cup might have gone away just the same.
 Although Williams owns the title and all the honors which belong to the victor in the Newport tournament tennis followers the world over will have to be shown continuation of Tuesdays form befure he can expect popular ranking over the Californian. One critic declared that Williams played as well as Mclaughlin ever played and better than he himself ever played before Admitting this much the fact remains that all the past work of the two men stamps Mo- Loughlin as being Williams superior He failed to show 1t in this big match, but there is little doubt as to Macs being the favorite If they again come together.
 Tho defeat leads to the speculation as to what might have happened if Brockes and Wilding had accepted the issue and played through the tourna- ment. Would they have. been aLle to even matters with Mclaughlin for their defeats at Forest Hills, or would Williams. in his present great form, have been able to change the verdict which the Australians scored over him? But 1t must remain in douot, since the invaders passed up the op- portuEity.

Says Men Are AII AIike.

In the Woman's Home Companion appeared the story of a coquette in which the coquette gives the following advice to her cousin: Don't make the stupid mistake thousands of women make. Don't! Every woman thinks her husband is different But, trust a worldly woman, my dear, of much ex- perience. men are all alike They tire of what they know is entirely their own. The thing a man should never lose sight is that his wife is attractive to other men as we'll as to himself"

In presenting these figures to the

probable hat the war would continue
seven months from August /.
Accordingly the five greater powers
engaged were committed to an expen-

smaller states, including Japan, will
have expenses of 5000, 000, 900 to $780,

These figures, which do not take
into account the losses of revenues
during hostilities, will be met, first,
by the issuance of notes against the
accumulated gold in the government
banks; second, by the issuance of
short term treasury bonds TO which
all governments are having recourse
during the war, and third, by delaying
payments for military necessities.

Postum for a short time, she felt so

nowadays has medical treatment at such
times, but many approach the expert

trial of strength, and when it is over
her system has received a shock from
which it is hard to ecove Following
right upon this comes the nervous strain
of caring for the child, and q distinct
change in the mother results.
There is nothing more charming than
ahappy and healthy mother of children,
and indeed childbirth under the right
conditions need be no hazard to health or
beauty. The unexplainable thing is
that, with all the evidence of shattered
nerves and broken health resulting from
an unprepared condition, and with am
pie time in which to prepare, women
will persist in going blindly to the trial.
