Worry Causes Dyspepsia.

Worry is a cause and source of much unhappiness. It seams the face with lines and furrows and has most depressing effect upon that hypersen- sitive organ, the stomach, which at such times becomes a most unwilling and laggard servant. Indeed, it is safe to say that unless encouraged by a cheerful temper and bright or, at least, hopeful thoughts, the stomach will play truant or sulll or do no good work. The physiological explanation of this is the close alliance of the great sympa- thetic nerves, which are worse than the telegraph for carrying bad news; j the work and anxiety which depress the brain cause simultaneously a semi paralysis of the nerves of the stomach;i gastric juices will not fow-and presto thereis indigestion. One sign of mental health is serenity of temper and a self-control that enables us to bear with equanimity the petty trials and jars of life especially those arising from contact with scolding, irascible, irritating persons. Serenity of mind comes easy to some and hard to oth- sls.American Medicine

Where IS the daSh1ng, 1mpetuOuS fresh water yachtswoman? One of the followers of salt water yachting has made the statement that the inland seas have produced very few like the women who handle the tiller and sheet on salt water. No one has taken that critic to task and made a moral in dictment against him. Yachting is a grand sport for women, be it sailing in a steam yacht, a single sticker or rid ing the waves with a gasoline launch. There are hundreds of women yachts men on salt water to tens on the inland lakes
 One great reason for the apparent lack of numbers on the small lakes is the element of danger. The salt water yachtswoman feels that Old Ocean with all his moods is not so tricky as the small lake. Besides, there are more yachts on salt water than on fresh water. It is difficult to pick out a woman sailor on fresh water with a tains that there are plenty of yachts women who derive a great deal of sport from sailing on the little lakes.
 Standing out in bold relief among the western women sailors is Miss Rus sell, of Detroit, who can handle La Belle Canadienne, her brothers boat, with as much skill as any man on the river. Mrs. George H. Terry, of Chi cago, is another celebrated handler of the sheet and tiller. She sails her hus- bands 35-footer with the skill that comes from long experience.
 What woman did not envy Mrs. O. Oliver Iselin, whose picture in a sou'- western and rubber clothes, as she stood on the deck of the Columbia dur ing the Americas cup race. was fea- ture of the pictorial representation of the, international contest. She is, perhaps, the best known of the Ameri- can salt water yachtswomen.
 Mrs. Royal Phelps Carroll has had more actual experience in cruising than any other woman known to the critics, it is said, and is able to handle boat alone. Mrs. Ogden Goelet, of course, is premier among the steam yachtswomen. What thrill of sa tis- faction must come over this immen nse- 1y, wealthy woman as she stands at the Wneel anu SlVlnS slSuals Dy electr1c1ty to the engineer far beneath her, she causes her steam yacht to glide into it's dock without scratching a flake of paint from its sides! The exhilaration is commendable, but, of course, it is impossible for all of the women lovers of the water who envy her to try their hands at the wheel. Mrs. Cornell Vanderbilt, Mrs. William K. Vander- bilt and other leaders in society are among the other well-known handlers of yachts. To be a good sailor requires such combination of circums tances wealth, yachts and leisure that it will take time to build up 8 constitu- ency for the inland seas that will equal that of the salt water bays.

Billiards, Golf and Yachting

As the white spheres fell upon the pavement the boy howled with de- light: .sCome on, kids; here's lots of fine mibs' In few moments the wagon had a procession of small boys longer than the one that follows a cir GUS caliope, and the balls disappeared in their pockets as rapidly as they bounded on the pavement.
 It did not take long for the $150 offering of gutta percha to run out. The driver of the truck continued to the freight depot in blissful ignorance of the loss of the balls. Soon, however, he discovered the "leak," and asking the assistance of police officer to re- cover the property, the pair went over the ground traversed by the truck. Playing at 'golf marbles" on the street, they found plenty of newsboys. Others were bounding the balls on the stone fiagging, while those who had gathered an idea of the use of the ball in the game of golf were making frantic efforts to drive balls down the street with bits of packing boxes and wagon wheel spokes for clubs. The boys scampered away with their golf balls, and the head of the firm naively remarked: Perhaps our loss is the country's gain. These balls may be the means of starting some boy on the path which leads to the national cham pionship.''

Wise followers of the whims of so- ciety women have spent considerable time in making a rule for the costume to be worn by women billiardists. The demand for a national style that would do for Newport and the west became so pronounced when it was learned that parlor billiards had begun te share with ping-pong the attention ot women members of country clubs and the smart set that it had to be at. tended to.
 stNo time for jokes about the society girl being rack for shirt waists, with a receptacle inside for lobster salad and ice cream and one outside for dumping diamond rings into," said one leader. "We must find rational costume for the billiard room. Wom- en have got the billiard fever again There will be more dusting of old tables and polishing up of long unused billiard-room furniture this year than ever before. Ever since Champion Napoleon Ives set a style for the bill liardists--playing in an evening dress trousers and vest minus his coat-and Champion Jacob Schaefer hit this a body blow by bringing out a sort of a knit jacket provided with black satin sleeves, the big billiard tournaments in yariably have been full dress affairs. Women have attended the amateur tournaments, always wearing full dress. But for the women players the correct costume is simple one"
 The problem that had to be solved was to get the greatest possible free dom of motion consistent with making good appearance. The costume se- lected as the best consists of a blouse, a loose and very short skirt coming to the shoe top-and low heeled and broad-soled, comfortable shoes. The exercise gained in walking about a bill Hard room for a few hours is quite suf- ficient for any 'pedestrienne," even should she be an English girl cele- brated for her long walks.
 The blouse, the edict says, should fit loosely and the sleeves should reach to the elbow. To prevent the skirt catching on the corne rss of the table, this garment should be adeperfectly plain. High-heeled and tight shoes are the bane of any billiard player. It is said of Ives that once he essayed to play big game wearing slippers. The following day he not only nursed his s'sore" feelings, because he had been beaten, but had such sore feet that he could scarcely walk. The billiard player needs walking shoes.
 'sI should think that the correct cos tune for women billiard players, as adopted, should prove of great value to the women" remarked Mrs. Hobart c. Chatfield-Taylor, one of the west ern leaders in society as well as in horsemanship, golf, and outdoor sports for women. There will be many billiard tables uncovered in dusty billiard rooms this fall-some no doubt have been transformed into ping pong tables by this time-and women will play the game What is more natural than that a rational and correct costume should be agreed upon for women players ?''

He added that he was not i'll a position to say anything more re, garding the peace settlement. Except that he had been requested to draw up an agreement to be submitted to all the major and minor leagues, barring the American association, against which war to the knife had been de clared.
 Secretary O'Rourke received com munication from MT Davenport of the Norwich team yesterday suspending Luke Dorsey. The Norwich Bulletin says: Tt was supposed by most of the fans Saturday that Captain Tighe took Dorsey out of the game in the second inning, but such was not the case. When the first inning ended and the Norwich team was taking the field, Dorsey refused to go because of the taunts from the bleachers. He said: I'll never play another game in this city,. if I never get a cent He was suspendoed indefinitely, and will prob ably go to Hartford some time this week"

One of the packers in a great whole. sale hardware house is not philan- thropist, but recently he did more to spread some knowledge of the game of golf among the sidewalk urchins of Chicago than man in opulent circum- stances would have desired to do. The packer now realizes that the supply of gutta percha has been visibly de- creased, that golf is an expensive lux ury for newsboys, that putting balls worth six dollars dozen before street arabs is like throwing money to the birds," and is thanking his stars that the head of the firm for which he has worked for a quarter of century did not make him pay for his carelessness that resulted in the loss of so many of the little white globes. Golf balls of the patented kind-the only ones now used in the tournaments, because of their resilliency and ability to fly far whenI we'll driven-are,s sometimes as scarce as the proverbial hens teeth, The supply is less than the demand. In hurry up'' order on the big hard ware house, the packer hastily packed $15o worth of patented and gutta percha golf balls and the teamster hastened to the freight house with the box.
 Passing portion of the city much given to the street boys, a sly urchin is said to have wrenched a board loose and started the stream of golf balls.

Ned Slater did not accept the cap faincy of the Waterbury team yester- day and he said he would not accept it. The team went to New Haven without a captain, for Charley Clancy carried the mileage bok.

It is two years since he did any pitching. At that time he had an excellent reputation in Bridge port as boxman.
 Pitcher Quinn of Norwich received a letter last week from Robinson of Baltimore. which as much as asked him to jump to that city. Quinn gave the letter to Manager Davenport, who answered it, stating that several of the big league teams are after Quinn, and if he wanted him, he Davenport was the man to talk business with. It IS @ fact that offers fer the clever young pitcher have been received from New York and Boston, and Connie Mack has also been watching Qu1nn's career.
 Three of the league baseball stars will enter Cornell university at the close of the present season for course in the College of Forestry. They are Billy Dineen. the Boston American league pitcher; "Christy' Mathewson, the crack pitcher of the New Yorks. and ssHughey'' Jennings, of the Phila- deIphia National league team.

SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY.

Although Wurtemburg is only a
600 inhabitants, and revenue of less
than S20,000,000, it possesses one of the
best com, oiled and thoroughly eff
cient systems of scientific education in
the world.
Prof. William Duane, professor of
physics at the Colorado state univer-
sity at Boulder, has been recently
granted patent on an improved sys-
tenn of transmitting messages over a
wire. 1t is said that as many as Is mes
sages can be sent back and forth at
the same time by this new method.
According to Commercial Intelli-
gence there is an immense future for
the development of motor-van traffic
in Italy. Ten days is the average time
for goods by slow train from Milan
to Genoa, a distance of 100 miles.
Motor cars that could do the distance
there and back in "a hours would
never lack full load.
Mr.. F. Bowden, president of the Cycle
and Motor Trades association. Eng
land, states that the cycle trade gives
employment to over 100000 people in
that country, and is the means of dis.
trlbuting an enormous sum per week
in wages. The average profit per BIZ
cycle made by the manufacturing
companies during 1900 amounted to
only $2.16.
The French minister of public
works has issued a decree prohibiting
the railroad systems of France from
working their men more than IL hours
out of "a. Signalmen, switch tenders,
trackmen and watchmen at duty on
grade crossings must have an uninter-
rupted break for at least eight or nine
hours. One hour is to be allowed in
the middle of the day for meals, and
each is to have one day or two half
days month free, and employees are
forbidden to work more than two
months consecutively without taking
at least one days vacation.
