RHEUMATISM
LEAVES YOU Forever
Deep Seated Uric Acid Deposits Are
Dissolved and the Rheumatic Poison
Starts to Leave the System Within
Twenty-For Hours.

Every druggist in this country is
authorized to say to every rheumatic
sufferer that if two bottles Of Allen
rhu, the sure conquerer of rheuma-
tism, does not stop all agony, reduce
swollen joints and do away with even
the slightest twinge of rheumatic pain,
he will gladly return your money
without comment.
Allenrhu has been tried and tested
for years, and really marvellous results
have been accomplished n the most
severe cases where the suffering and
agony was intense and piteous and
where the patient was helpless.
Mr.. James H. Allen, the discoverer
of Allenrhu, who for many years suf-
fered the torments of acute rheuma-
tism. desires all sufferers to know
that he does not want cent of any
ones money unless Allenrhu decisive
lv conuuers this worst of all diseases,
and he has instructed Wilkinson &
Co. to guarantee it in every instance.

General Baron Peter Wrangel, the new
leader of the volunteer forces in Rus
STA, is commonly supposed to be Of
German or Russian origin. Neither of
these beliefs is correct. The baron is
of Swedish lineage, his great fore
father having fought in the Thirty
Years war. The Wrangel line is still
in Sweden One branch of it settled
in Germany, which explains the fact
that there is a Baron Wrangel in Ber-
lin today. Another branch went to the
Baltic provinces when they were under
the control OF Sweden.
At the battle of Poltava = in 1903,
when the forces of Peter the Great op-
posed those of Charles the Twelfth or
sweden. there were six Wrangels on
the formers side and six on the lat
ter's. The present General WrangePs
forefathers became landowners in the
south OF Russia in the reign OF Gather
inc the Great. The generals home is

TENNIS PLAYERS
ARE DESCRIBED
Britisher Writing in London Paper
Tells Why He Thinks Americans
are Playing Such Good
Tennis.
T1LDEN Is GREATEST
Master Of All Moods They Call Him in
the British Isles Where He Has
Mastered All
Corners.

Keokuk tennis players will be inter
tested, perhaps, in Britisher's de-
scription of the way Americans play
the net game.
A. e. Crawley, writing in the Lon
don Daily Mail, presents a study of
American teams tennis attack and
defense. He tells how and why they
play
These Americans are some" play
ers. You will have already seen that
at Wimbledon.
But just how they play and why is
interesting to analyze.
After defeating the Frenchmen in
the Davis cup tie at Eastborne last
week they met the British isles team
at Wimbledon.
William r. Tilden, champion of the
world; William C.Bnl'') M. Johnston,
champion of the U. S. A; G. S.
CChuck') Garland and Richard N.
Williams, doubles champions Of the
world, are all great athletes and they
have applied to lawn tennis the prin-
ciples of the athletic and boxing
arenas. That is their open secret.
Their maxim, in word, is speed
of hand and of foot, guided by speed
of eye and brain. British players are
slow and sure. Americans are quick
and sure (three times out OF five is
enough to, win)

From the very first the Americans
have studied efficiency (here styled
"hustle") in the game. We have
rather concentrated on amusement

Tilden is Greatest.

!
w. T. Tilden is the greatest artist
we have ever had. When in the
mood he delights in doing miracles
with the ball. Master of every pos
lsible stroke, he varies his methods
Ito nonsuit his opponents. His drive
'pf the clean hit sort is on occasion
the most severe we have seen. His
service is harder than Pattercon's.
His drop shots are too cunning"
Both these men are masters Of
footwork, as great boxers and fencers
are, of necessity.
For instance, Tilden, feet 2 inches
in his socks, served with his feet. 1t
is an interesting thing to watch now
all the energy of this tremendous de-
livery is based on grip Of the floor.
Tilden is student of philosophy
and psychology, a remarkably clever
brain man, and he reveals this quality
in his play He has wonderful Enack
of taking the measure of his oppo-
nent and adapting his own strokes
accordingly.
Garland is a fine classical player,
with a wonderfully romantic capa-
city for killing the ball in double.
superior perhaps to that Of Johnston
and Tilden.
Richard N. Williams is perfect
all round player, just now trifle less
speedy than before the war.

Proposed Extension of Rhode
Island Avenue to Hyattsville
By BILL PRICE.

There is pending before Governor RITCHIE OF Mary
the Legislature that State and the State ROADS Com

ton and maintenance part OF the mgnwy system OF
Maryland of improved highway from Mt' MANNER 10

This proposition has great deal more back OF than

line From there to the intersection with the o'ae ROAD
Hyatsville the distance is about three-fourths OF mile
The construction of highway here would be OF inesmable
benefit to Maryland and District people.
It would greatly shorten the distance between the center
of Washington and Maryland points On the regular Ba-
more pike the distance from the District line to Hyatsvile
is nearly two miles, The saving is at least MILE This
means saving of repair the regular pike economy to
the State and to the users OF her highways.
The proposed new road would partly eliminate the dan
gerous grade crossing Hyattsve 1t is on the regular

which more than 5000 vehicles cross daily
Not only is this crossing most dangerous one, but 1T

held up there for long intervals while trains passing
The business interests of Maryland and the District would
be saved thousands of dollars wasted time by the short
cut road now under consideration Farmers and all classes
would be benefited
If the matter rests with the State Road Commission
which is doing good work for Maryland the Proposon
ought to have careful consideration. 1t is mertorious in
every way Traffic between District and Maryland points is
constantly increasing and in the end the road would
save money to the commission
Hyattsvie people would like to call the extension when

Very likely you would want to be of these twins
But did you ever stop to think that you are one Of
twins? Not physical twins, but mental twins? That you
are always accompanied by your other self?
When one Of your selves says it is going to do some
thing wrong the other self says, Don't do it."
