the womcn's Pennsylvania and Eastern
States double tennis crown to-day by
defeating Miss Dorothy Disston and Miss

at 80. 81.
The winners formed a team that was
simply unbeatable. and no matter how
hard Miss Disston and Miss White played
Miss RJurstedt and Miss Sears always
managed TO play a little harder. Miss
bisston. who plays from the Philadel-
phia Cricket Club. put up a brilliant
game and showed remarkable gameness.
Miss White, who is from Baltimore.
was hopelessly outclasscd. although she
held her own with both Miss Sears and

In he upper right hand corner Of the

Sx- fora Quarter Smoke Goes by
The Board; High Cost of Rope

There's grief among the cigar men
and tobacco merchants these days.
While the prices of fodder, ma
chinery, gasoline and white paper
have been hitting the high spots on
account OF the war and the demo-
cratic administration, the price OF to-
bacco remained at the old level and
the cigar man made an honest living
without the daily worry OF calculating
the figures on the ledger to see if the
balance should be written in red or
black ink, But now the tobacco rner-
chant is getting his and already the
six-for-a-quarter brand of smoke has
disappeared over the high-cost-of-liv-
ing horizon.
Cigars that formerly were pur-
chased for $3s a thousand and sold
at a jitney each have advanced to
$3.50 and 1888. At six-for-a-quarter a
thousand cigars would sell at $40, a
profit Of only 81, which is not enough
to allow for rent, wages and over
head. Thus has the six-for-a-quarter
cigar disappeared. And if prices con-
tinue to climb the nickel cigar will
have a struggle to keep its place. The
price must either 60 up or the quality
come down.
Cigars that formerly cost the retail
er $40 a thousand have gone up to
SIS and $78 thousand. This is the
brand OF cigar that sells for 10 cents.
Other cigars have gone up from 800
10 $500 a thousand, This Is the Is.
cent, or two-for-a-quarter size. And
if another advance occurs the two
