You see, Tilden. besides being a
crack tennis player is might$
brainy young fellow When he writes
an article for a newspaper or maya
zine about tennis--or anything else
there can be no possibility of doubt
that he wrote il himself. He has Al!
sorts OF imagination, and, in fact,
is one of those rare champions who
not only can 60 out and perform ath-
letlc wonders, but has the tempera-
ment to visualize his own feats in
terms of drama.
Just Easy 10 Handle.
In fact. Tilden's virtuoso qualitjes
lead him into many other fields asido
from tennis and the chronicles there.
OF. He is no mean performer on tn"
htStrionic stage. Being such. any one

easy TO handle
ON the other hand. Harold Hackott
is closer TO the earth so far as tenn
permanent is concerned. His eligibility
TO criticize Tilden's doubles play lies
IN the fact that years ago hc anu
Fred Alexander constituted about the
greatest doubles team in the history
of the sport He never was the tennis
player. however, that Tilden is. We
shall see how the two compare when
rackets are laid aside and pens taken
up.
Tilden never has claimed to be any
'HilS OF ii GOunlSS player. IN TACT.
he told the writer last summer that
doubles play in this country was al
undeveloped art and unless steps
were taken to improve our play in
this respect we might find the short
coming disastrous with respect TO tic
Davis cup.
Whether or not Tilden received ad-
vice during the intermissiou in the
Davis cup matches last September or
not is a minor point in the things
that may rise out OF the present
issue.

of it has been studied, and the
game has been frightened to cope
with it, and both Unfolding and

meet the different emergencies.
Diagrams have been drawn to
show how the ball revolves and
the physics of motion have been
studied so that something of the

mystery, the very heart Of the

You don't find any one else be-

a pinch hitter is often called to

It's always the ball and how the
ball behaves that holds the vic
tory and the loss in base ball.

HELP KIDNEYS BY DRINKING
 MORE WATER
Take Salts to Flush Kidneys and Help
 Neutralize Irritating Acids.

Kidney and bladder irritations often result from acidity, says noted au- thority. The kidneys help filter this acid from the blood and pass it on to the bladder, where it may remain to irritate and inf1ame, causing a burn ing, scalding sensation, or setting up an irritation at the neck of the bfad- der, obliging you to seek relief two or three times during the night. The sufferer is in constant dread; the water passes sometimes with a scald- ing sensation and is very profuse; again. there is difficulty in voiding it. Bladder weakness. most folks call it because they cant control urination. While it is extremely annoying and sometimes very painful, this is often one of the most simple ailments to overcome. Begin drinking lots of soft water, also get about four ounces Of lad Salts from your pharmacist and take tablespoonful in glass of water before breakfast. Continue this for two or three days. This will help neutralize the acids in the system 10 they no longer are d source of irrita- ton to the bladder and urinary or- gans, which then act normal again.
 lad Salts is inexpensive, and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice. combined with lithia, and is used by thousands of folks who are subject to urinary disorders caused by acid irritation. lad Salts causes no bad effects whatever.
 Here you have a pleasant. efferves- cent lithia- water drink which may quickly relieve your bladder irrita- tion By all means have your phy- ~cian examine your ki1ncys at leas! Grce a year.
