ORIGINS OF GAMES.
Tennis 10 Very Old and Comes From
the Greeks and Romans.


Tennis is perhaps the oldest Of mod
ern games. II is said to have original.
co In the ball games of the Greeks and
Romans The racket was introduced
curing the fifteenth century In France,
where the game was very popular, and
imported into England about the same
time.
VI the origin of cricket we know but
httie' though 1t was possibly identical
with the club ball of the fourteenth
century and was first called 'handyn
and handoute."
Bowling greens and alleys were once
plentiful In London, and Henry VIII.
made an alley at Whitehall. The earli-
est trace of the game appears In an
OLD print Of about six centuries ago.
Few perhaps know that London's
famous thoroughfare, Pail Mall. deriv-
ed its name from an old Pale Mile
court which stood on the site 800 years
ago. This game was a form Of Gro.
quet.
Golf or "goff'' seems to have made
its nrst appearance In the handy ball
OF Elizabeth's reign. which was played
with club tipped with horn. Prince
Henry, the son Of James l., occasional.
~ played at this game, which was
very popular among the young noble.
men Of his day.
Football became such a rage with
the London youths of the fourteenth
century that law was passed to pro
hibit 1t being played. as archery then
an important branch of education
was becoming thoroughly neglected.

Why Rubber Tires Grow Hot.

When an automobile is running at
high speed the rubber tires are rap
idly warmed and the heat sometimes
becomes very great. with resultant in
jury to the rubber. The cause of this
accumulation Of heat In the tire is
ascribed to the kneading of the rubber,
which generates heat faster than it can
be radiated away. For this reason
manufacturers have found 1t to be an
advantage to have metal parts in the
tread. such as the ends Of rivets, in
contact with the tire, because the metal,
being good radiator. helps to carry
off the heat to the outer air.

CURIOUS TAXES.
Ways Holland Had Of Raising Funds
In the Old Days.

In the Old Days.
The archives Of Holland contain or
dinances which may well be regarded
as curiosities Of taxation. In the year
1866 there was a tax imposed ON all
passengers travelling In Holland by
land or water. In 1891 this tax was
still In force.
In 1874 duty of PA pence was lev
led or each person who entered tav-
ern before noon. Those assembling in
private house after O'clock In the
afternoon for the purpose of amusing
themselves had each to pay a certain
sum, and those who entered place of
entertainment were likewise taxed.
There was a duty ON marriages and
deaths. The amount of the tax varied
according to the social position of the
parties, while in the case of person
buried outside of the district In which
be lived the amount payable by his ex-
ecutor was doubled.
But the most curious tax of all was
one imposed in 1874 on boots and
shoes. In order to prevent the impost
from being cvaded each of those artt-
cles so essential to human comfort had
to be conspicuously marked on the up
per leather with the stamp of the
maker and also with that of the taxing
officer. The sum TO be paid was regu-
lated by the size of the boot or shoe
so apart from the question of beauty in
those days it was real advantage tc
have a small foot. 1t saved expense

SAYS in .Ivanhoe. men wore one thick

THE SOUL OF SATAN"

Gladys Brockwell, whose coming is
always hailed with delight by her
thousands of admirers in this city,
opens "a the Isis Theatre tomorrow,
in her newest William Fox photo
play, "The Soul of Satan"
This production which goes thor
oughly into the problems confronting
the maturing girl, is guaranteed by
the Fox people to have a punch in
every foot Miss Brockwell is not
the usual type of screen actress She
differs from the usual type in that
she can act, whereas a great many
of those now playing leading roles in
motion pictures haven't the slightest
idea what the word even means.
The story of "The Soul of Satan"
begins with Miriam Lee Gfiss
BrockwelD as a girl Of the slums.
whose entire life has been passed in
the drudgery of mothering two little
children. When she meets a man who
seems to love her she runs off with
him and leaves her father, cursing
her, behind.
AS the years pass, she learns to
know this man whom she thinks she
has married. He is a low, desnicable
character, and he stops at nothing to
gain his ends.
Then, into Miriam's life comes the
one bright ray or true love. She
meets Lucky Carson, out of the west,
and he sees and understands all.
When she realizes that her marriage
to the first man has been a trick, she
leaves him to the punishment for his
crimes and goes back to her home
accompanied by the man she really
loves.
