MANY RACES TO Be HELD,
First Big One Of Season Is interna-
tional Affair to Be Held OF Marble
head, Mass, Aug. II Between Ameri-
can and Spanish Yachts.


The sonderclass yacht seems to be
growing In popularity. 1t FIRST came
lantic in 1906, when a series of races
was arranged with the German yachts
men. and since then some forty boats
have been built for this class.
1t is most popular in eastern waters
and has proved successful. Those who
are interested In the class do not pro
pose to allow it to die out, and many
races are to be held this year. The
international races between the Amer.
lean and Spanish sender boats are
scheduled to start off Marblehead,
Mass, Aug. II. On Buzzards bay Sept.
3 there are to be races for the selection
of team to be sent to Kiel for inter,
national races in June, 1911.
To those who do not understand
what the sender boat is the following

In addition to this condition they must

must not be more than 4,035 pounds,
nor may they carry more than $50

The Latest MASSAGE.

Instead of using hot cloths or steam
10 get the face into condition for mas
saying, the latest idea is to use water
charged with electricity.
This water is applied through a
sponge-like substance at the end of
two tubes attached to an electric wire
or battery. The instrument is so con-
structed that surplus moisture is car
ried off in one of the pipes.
The advocates of this method say
there is no danger of too much relax
ing of the muscles, as is the case with
steam. and the heat is so regulated
that there is no danger of scalding the
skin. as with hot cloths.

the fact that the voice has an influence
upon the mouth. When q woman
speaks habitualIy In loud voice her
lips will become ugly. Watch your
self In the glass when you speak and
you win notice that hard. rough lines
come round your mouth when you
speak loudly. Now, by speaking gem

Death of L. P. Smith.

Lucien 2. Smith, one of the found
ers of Palisade and the largest owner
of The Hudson River Realty Com
pany, died at his home in Syracuse,
n. Y, November 4 He was about
sixty years Of age, a multi-million-
aire, and one OF the most popular
men in Central New York State He
was identified with nearly every pub
lie enterprise of Syracuse, had con-
tributed a 100000 dormitory and
library to Syracuse University, and
had planned many other gifts
Mr.. Smith was the head of the
Smith Premier Typewriter Company,
and later with a more improved ma
chine put out by L. c. Smith & Bro.
He had been one OF the lucky men
to invest in Seattle, Washington, his
holdings there running into many mil
lions At the time OF his death he
was planning for huge skyscraper in
Seattle thirty-fve stories high.
OF Mr.. Smith it may be said that
he was a born hnancier, though his
earlier career was successful through
the hardest kind OF labor He had ac-
complished results in every line OF
endeavor, and as what a man does is
his greatest claim in achievement, Mr..
Smith was in every way a tremendous
success, far and away above the aver
age man who dies merely rich.

row and hoodwinked, so that he has
no sense of proportions"
Also, it may be added, fanaticism
produces a feeling of unrest and
bravado, and men sometimes fight
most savagely in upholding their
fanatic faith. 1t becomes a part of
a man, and his zeal overcomes him
to the extent of causing him to live
by day and sleep by night hugging to
his heart the fallacy of his fanatic
belief. 1t does not follow, either that
because man is fanatic his cause
may not be just. The fanatic fights
just as hard on the wrong side of
question as on the right side. In
other words, two men opposing each
other on any subject may uphold
their respective sides with blind fanati-
cism, and both cannot be right. The
thing to do is never to be radical.
Cultivate a higher standard of toer-
ance. Give every man the right to
think as he sees proper Be liberal,
broad, charitable These are the
ideals which alone can eradicate
fanaticism

THE DOCTORS MILLENNIUM.

the highest standing makes the an
nouncement OF the TACT that materia

diseases to which mankind is subject,
there is now a minimum amount OF
work for the doctors That is a
most unusual claim, to say the least.

need doctors the millennium will have

THE SLIP OF TYPES.

With little paper like "The Pal
isadian," run and edited under such pc
culiar conditions, it would seem that it
would be easy enough to avoid mis-
takes of all kinds and have things
run as smoothly as a wheel in
groove. But theory will not work in
putting out a newspaper of any kind.
1t is impossible for the dice to fall
as we will. There is a psychological
influence always at work in its pro-
duction that battles the mind of man.
There isn't anything in the world
quite as contrary or as mysterious in
its influences. At a time when ones
heart is in the work of catering prop
erly to all, something is sure to get
out of plumb If portion of
proverbs is served with the whole
some aroma of truth about them, it
is logical that even a philosophizing
paragraph will slip over on another
column where it doesn't belong, and
either offend or place some one in
IAdlNulOuS dllIluuC. All INSTANCE
of this is evidenced in a late issue
OF this paper, where a speech of
worthy fellow townsman was men
toned in the complimentary terms it
deserved, only to be followed when
it was printed by proverb which
read, 1T is better to be fool seek
ing wisdom than wise man satisfied
with what he has!" The makeup
man needed those four lines to fill
out column and never knew he was
stumbling when he picked them up.
Verify the trials of the editor are
many and his responsibility great A
man may say anything he pleases, but
If he prints one wrong syllable he
is up against the ire of the fates. 1t
probably never occurs to many that
running a village paper is a hard
task. But it is worse than that
