balla they use are called tennla balls."
This simply aervea to ahow the flue
tuations in popular favor In amuse
ments, as elsewhere. Nowadays tennis
is one of our moat favored sports, while
racquets Is utterly lost to memory.
Some of those old and forgotten'
games, however, are well worth a re
vival. Not only were they pretty and
graceful, rather than rough and bolv
teroua, but they were unrivaled exercises
for the cultivation, of balance and poise.
Prominent among them was the
French sport of cup and ball. You may
remember that one day the English
aud the French ambassadors were clos
eted together for hours. All their at
taches were greatly worried; no one
knew what momentous International de
cisions might not be pending.
Finally, one of them dared to knock
at the French ambassador's door. As
he did ao, ha heard the English ambas
sador exclaim gleefully. "Forty-nine I"
With their countenances expressing the
greatest attention and enthusiasm, the
two representatlvea of the powera were
busily playing cup and ball.
The Instrument for this game conalsts
of a hollow cup, usually of wood, and
a ball attached to It by a strong elastic
Tha principle Is much the same as tnut
which governs the miniature bats and
attached woolen balls with which the
children play.
Of course, the object Is to catch the
ball In the cup again after throwlng.lt
up in tne air. wnen iwo are iiinyj-

to make a record or to decide tii su
premacy. This game Is again enjoying great pop
ularity In France, and all Its ancient
conceits are being revived. Again we
are presented with cups and balls of all
sixes, from the midget, which has a
handle tha size of a toothpick and a
pith ball, to the giant, .which has the
heaviest of Iron balls, of a weight suf
ficient to injure seriously any but an
extremely skilful player; and of all
shapes, from the feather duster to tba
pollceman'a club. 1
The chief benefit derived from this
exerclae Is quickness of eye snd alert
ness of arm. In the lighter varieties,
however. It teaches extreme grace also,
and certainly the giant excels the
punching bag as a developer of muscle
though It is hardly fit for a woman!
In ye olden days. Indeed, the . entire
sport, was tabooed by the fair sex. It
was entirely too strenuous for- their
unaccustomed muscles. As the utmost
possibility of athletlos they enjoyed a
game ot grace hoops or of battledore -and
shuttlecock.
This, former game Is Just what its
name Implies. It is one of the pret
tiest sports In . the world. The Imple
ments are two long polished wood
sticks, covered at the upper half with
velvet secured by heavy tape and two
tape and. velvet wound hoops. ,
ft la distinctly a parlor game,
though It may be playea out of doors
also. Two participants are required,
and the object is to tcsa the hoops
alternately from one stick to the
other. kecDlns: both arolna at tha same
time. Of course, score Is kept of the
lumber or failures on eaca siae, ana

a maximum number of throws is,
. previously decided on to end the
game,
When on 3 plays this game one soon
learns that no elephantine antics will
suffice to keep the hoops going. The
utmost aklll and grace are required
' to make even a fair score. One must
keep cool, too, and not confuse the
two hoops, one coming' and the other
going. And one must learn accuracy
In finding bow to come neither too
near nor too far. and to v toss neltner
' too high nor too low.
Battledore and shuttlecock Is some
what on the same principle. The bat
tledore is shaped like a leather
bound tennis racquet, except that In
place of strings It has on either side
a tightly stretched skin covering, like
a drumhead.
The shuttlecock is a small cylinder
of wool and velvet, with a circlet of
feathers around th,e top. Of course,
it is exceedingly light, and it Is diffi
cult to keep even one ball, let alone
the two often employed,, going from
one bat to the other without falling.
In the mode of counting and In the
grace and dexterity It Imparts this
game closely resembles grace hoops.
Quoits, of course, was quite beyond
the energies of the maid of 1830, but
she did play and enjoy., ring toss,
which Is quolta brought down to a
parlor'baals. It has exactly the same
rules for playing, and the only per
ceptible difference is that the stake is
mounted on a block of wood instead
of being Inserted In the ground and
that the quoits, instead, of being of
heavy Iron, are of light-colored pa
pier mache.
have a tendency to a hairy growth.
In the. latter case use the other mas

bust may not be, comparatively, so

bending exercises, and thus develops

best exercise known for this purpose.
Archery has always been the favor
ite sport of the privileged classes,
though at the time when It was really
the game of games no lady would
1 ve dreamed of attempting It. By
the beginning of the nineteenth cen
tury, however, It had become popular
for both sexes, though, according to
the current belief of the time in wom
an's Inferiority' in all things, "ladles'
handicaps" were always provided. For
so Intricate a pastime rules cannot be
given here; It Is so far a standard
one that books of Instruction are
easily procurable.
This I will say, however, that archery
Is the incarnation of grace. Every mo
tion in it is imbued with poise and
boauty. It may not be so athletic as
go or tennis, nor so absorbing as
automoblllng or ballooning, but it Is the
t. ost poetical thing we have left to
us in these strenuous and prosaic
day a.
And that is the chief charm of all
these old games. They are beautiful,
not only in themselves, but also be-''
cause of their world-old symbolism
and reminiscence.
And best of all to the praotlcal
woman of today is the fact that they
are, a pleatant way of taking a nause
ous dose, and of combining pleasure
with the inevitable and necessary exercise.
Peroxide on the Hands
Kindly tell me how to use peroxide
hydrogen on the bands to whiten them.
BADlE.
You must remember that peroxide Is
a powerful bleach, and you must not be
too lavish Irt Its use. Four a little of
It Into a saucer, uwlute with " half as
much aguln of pure water and apply
wltn a soft clotn. Let It dry on the
hands, and then ruo on lanolin or cold
cream to prevent possible irritation. Re
peat every night until the desired re
sult Is obtained.
