I "lore" to moan "nothing" in the scor- | ' tng system, for, although it may sur- | prise many to hear it the game is : I sometimes spoken of ss effeminate. ! and this bit of terminology is held re sponsible. Nobody has ever explained j : why "love" means "nothing" in tennis. * but there ta a footnote in an old and < i rare book about card-playing (whlch | refers to an old Scottish yord "luff," j which meant "nothing," and this, per- j haps, may have been somehow transferred lato the game of tennis. Or, again, the term may be of far eastern origin, where a word sounding like "love" war usod in the old form of tennis that was once popular In the orient. Whether or not the termin1 ology undergoes change, the game Is in no immediate danger of falling off In popularity, and the repeated shouting of these seeming endearment* across the tennia net has occasioned much innocent merriment-?Christian Science Monitor. Honor Cuban Generals. ' ? Cuba is to pay honor to the memory i of General Maximo Gomes, the island i republic's military hero, by erecting a costly monument. A first prise of $25,- j ' 000 was awarded recently to Aldo Gaba, an Italian sculptor, for a model of the memorial, which la to cost $200,- ; 000. Second and third prizes went respectively to Huertas Cabarrocaa, r . Spanish-Cuban, and Gutson Borjrlnm. an American. General Gomez became popular as the leader of the 'Cuban forces in the war for Independence | from Spain, from 1895 to 1898. He i also took a prominent part in the Ten j Tears' war. a revolt which began In 1868. On the day of his death. June 18, 1905. the general's family was presented with a gift of $100,000 by the government of Cuba. At the conclu- | Qinn of the Soanish-American war. ; J General Gomez was honored at a pub- J I He reception given by the American | forces occupying Havana at that time.

Helium Gas Cheapened. - Dp to 19ip the total output of | I helium gas in all the world had probably been less than 100 cubic feet, and It was worth about $1,700 a cubic foot. I But Just before the armistice was j signed a shipment of 150,000 cubic j i feet of helium gas was sent to Europe. i and It costs less than 10 cents a cubic J foot 1 Helium gas was first discovered on i the sun. by spectroscopy. It is the best gas for use in balloons, because it la not inflammable. It Is now ex! tracted from the natural gas of Texas and Kansas. The method is delicate and complex. but is based upon the fact that the principal constituents of natural gas liquefy when cooled to about minus 329 degrees F., but that helium re mains a gas at that temperature, and hence Is easily separated.
