How to Regain Beauty.

How are men to regain what they
have lost? il man lives an orderly
life he will regain his beauty; if he is
vicious he will speedily grow ugly. The
characteristic ugliness of most men is
simply a phenomenon which is the con-
sequence of a pathological process. A
face may be unsympathetic and repel-
lent, but if it shows perfect health il
can never be absolutely ugly. The in
telligent, healthy boy is never ugly even
when he has irregular features. 1t is
only in adolescence that his features as
sumo those ugly outlines which are aft.
onward developed in manhood.
A man loses his mOdeSty earlier than
a woman. With his innocence he for
feits his beauty. Here the ways of men
and women part, with the results that
we see.
What influences the body influences
the face. 1t is not sickness alone that
gives the features their particular i'm
press. The slightest self-indulgence,
evil habits, extremes of eating or drink
ing, any excess, no matter how slight,
if INDUCED in, all tell their story to
any one who has learned to read the
face of man.
Ugliness in Man.
What has caused that thick, crooked,
half-pendent lip on 80 many men? To
bacco-cigars, pipes cigarettes Where
do the red noses and copper cheeks
come from? Wine and spirits. Why
do the features lose every vestige of spir-
it and purity? Alcohol, lasciviousness.
And the hang-dog face with the furtive
eyes which more and more men are de-
veloping? Impure thoughts. The lazy,
big-stomached man with his besotted
look and spongy muscles? Beer
''AIl over Germany, and other coun-
tries as well, the number of those who
drink and smoke increases, and in CON
sequence the number of those who spit
and scratch themselves and are itchy.
They are our contemporaries. and they
hurt the feelings of any man or woman
with even a trace of aesthetic sense.
Such men are ugly.
The high collars reaching up to the
ears, the stiffiy ironed shirts, the top
hats. Have men a right to point the
finger OF scorn at women because they
wear cOrSets?
Live cleanly. think clearly, live in the
fresh air and your beauty will be again
as superb as it was in the days of an
cient Greece. Our hair will return to
MS. so will our teeth, and our straight
backs, and clean limbs. and bright eyes"

WOMEN CAPTURE
THREE OF EVENTS
Jubilee of Mitchell Car Owners
Is Most Successful of
Coast Contests
By K. K. PHOmmedieu
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL


SAN JOSE, July 3.-One of the most
successful automobile events ever held
in central California since the motor
car made its appearance on the Pacific
coast took place today. 1t was the oc-
casion of the second annual Mitchell
jubilee. More than 1000 owners of
Mitchell cars were in the Garden City.
All the roads leading to the point of
rendezvous saw the cars bearing the
Mitchell pennant heading for the hill
climb. After luncheon the pilot car,
in charge of George V. Rogers, secre-
tary of the Mitchell motor car COM
pany, headed for Alum Rock HILL and
he was Joined by George B. Polhe-
mus, president of the Santa Clara coun-
ty automobile club, DR.. J. L. Benepe
and A. H Martin, who were the judges
and timers for the event.
After a few of the preliminary try
outs the contest began. The great
surprise of the day was the wonder
full showing made by the women driv-
ers, three of the six events be-
ing captured by them, while a second
and another also went to their credit.
The fastest time for the distance was
made by l.. Brassy in 1:19, while the
second best time was made by Mrs j.
c. skinner of Stockton in 1923.
Mrs. Skinner's victory was especially
interesting from the fact that she be-
came enthused as the contest proceeded
and bought a car so that she might
take part in the fun. The purchase
was made on the hillside after the con-
test had started. After the races had
finished the winners were presented at
the finishing line with their tokens, the
presentation being made by Mrs. G.. v.
Rogers and Mrs. DR.. ]. L. Benepe. The

TETANUS AS FOLLOWER
OF INDEPENDENCE DAY

win the coming OF Independence
Day and its accompanying noise and
possibility Of injuries. the usual fear
and a well-grounded fear-of tetanus,
or lockjaw, manifest itself Although
the police intead to prevent, as much
as possible. the firing of blank cart
ridges there is a possibility that some
will be injured by powder burns.
Although 4 has never been con-
clusively determined that the germ OF
tetanus Is contained IN the powder,
persons wounded by the discharge OF
either a blank cartrida or a cap in a
toy pistol have contracted the dreaded
loclSjaw.
The germ usually lies in street and
stable dirt. and 1t is possible that dust
on clothing IS carried into the wound
Deaths from lockjaw caused by
Fourth Of July injuries are growing
fewer. In the last five years there
have been in the United States sS6
cases, 721 resulting in death. OF the
latter, COS were due to blank-cartridge
wounds.
The number Of deaths from lockjaw
resulting from Fourth of July wounds,
however. is decreasing, probably due 70
less frequent uss of blank cartridge as
noise producers. In 1908 there were 4i5
cases. but last year there were only
73.
