Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Outdoor Sports and Pastimes: Correct Rules for Lawn Tennis, Croquet, and Base Ball The game of Tennis is one of the ancient pastimes of England, and it was a favorite game with royalty from ancient times down to the present. But the Tennis of that day is not the Lawn Tennis of the nineteenth century, the latter really being a sort of return to the pristine days of the game when it was played out of doors in a very crude way; and therefore we need not lefer to the old game of Tennis further than to state that it was a far more di icult game to play than is modern Tennis. It is not necessary tofrefer at length to the origin of the modern game, beyond stating the fact that it came into favor as a lawn substitute for the old court game; and from its introduction has won its way to a popularity unprecedented almost in the history of field games of ball. As, for its brief history in America, it may be said that no game has been introduced in this country from England which has achieved such rapid favor in fashionable circles of American society as the game of Lawn Tennis. It is now the pet society game at all the watering places and at every fashionable summer resort in the country. Besides which, it is the only all - the-year-round game of ball now in vogue; for when the summer lawn is covered with snow, in-door Tennis is at command in any moderately-sized. Andsmoothly-fioored hall. While Lawn Tennis is a special favorite with those who cannot excel in any game requiring any special attribute of physical courage, owing to the fact that every phase of danger is eliminated from the game, it is also popular with those who are expert in such manly sports as base ball, cricket, lacrosse and football, from the fact that it necessitateslitheness of limb and activity of movement, besides affording a field for stragetic skill when the game is played up'to its highest point, which is quite enjoyable by way of contrast in present ing a light exercise, differing greatly from the vigorous and somewhat danger ous exercises of the other games. Then, too, Lawn Tennis is an excellent field game of ball for ladies, as it affords them the very kind of exercise they most need, and that is out door activity, which will bring the dormant muscles of the limbs and the chest into play. There is an additional recommendation, too, for Lawn Tennis, and that is that it can be played on a comparatively small space of level ground, or on a hall floor. There is one thing about Lawn Tennis playing, as in vogue in general society, which makes it exceptional, and that is, in no field game now enjoying popular favor, are the amenities of social life so particularly observed. The game is one that has come to stay, as it fills a void which has existed a long while, and that 18, the want of a game in which ladies and gentlemen can participate, while at the same time plenty of active and not too vigorous exercise can be afforded for both, and that, too, Without any element of danger to mar the pleasure of its enjoyment.
