I 'OFF TO THE RACES' j AS SEEN BY R0TR0FF: As a young reporter It once fell to our lot to give a circumstantial anclj truthful account of a yacht race on; our local water front. Arriving on j the dock too late to get a place on thei judge's boat, wo boarded a Bteamer that was to follow the craft around ; the course. When it was loaded to, the gunwales whatever the gunwales are we put out to see, so to apeak. Arriving some two or three miles from i the yachts, a wild cry went up that the race had started and all the passcn- ' gers rushed to the forward deck to get their 50 cents worth. This soi f weighted down the prow that It all, but submerged, hoisting the hinder-; most portion of the boat, technically! known a3 the stern, so high above the surrounding wave that the propeller i revolved in the air Instead of in the ; water and before the captain, the mate, the deck hands, the stokers, the. engineer, the pilot and the gentleman; who held the refreshment booth con cession could shoo the passengers back, the race was over. Then they all collected aft, as the saying goes, and then the front of tho boat stood so high out of the water that she couldn't bo steered. After getting thej passengers properly distributed, the steamer finally got back to the dock where everyone was in such a hurry to get home to supper It was now about dark that the old tub leaned over against the dock and almost broke that down. Altogether, a lovely time was had. Tho great thing about a yacht race on the Atlantic these dry days la, how ever, that a guest boat has a chance to get beyond the three-mile limit.

Few. if any. baseball teams in tho major leagues have a $10,000 salaried ball player warming the bench as the Cubs havo in Charlie Ilerzog. veteran second baseman, who has not played in an entire game since May 4 His : work is being made decidedly soft for him by tho remarkable ball Zeb Terry is playing at the keystone sack. And It will continue to bo easy so long as the prenent second baseman keeps up the work that has gained the unlimit ed admiration of the north side fol lowers. Should Hcrzog go through the entire season sitting on the bench it will probably be the first time In the history of the sport that a 510.000 ball player has been allowed such a long rest. There will be no occasion to put He'rzog back in the game if Terry con tinues the brand of ball he has been playing since he was stationed at second. It looks like a long vacation for the veteran. When Manager Mitc hell removed him from the position May 4 in Pittsburgh It was believed to be only for a few days, but Terry has done so remarkably wjll that it has been impossible for the manager to seo where the club would bo bene fited by putting Hcrzog back In the batting order. That he has not erred In hla judgment is shown by tho re cords of Terry's work and also by his exhibition of aggressiveness and splen did fielding at critical moments In the battlca. Cub fans enthused last summer over the sensational fielding of Hcrzog af ter he Joined the Cubs, coming from the Boston club. Inspired by the change and by being on a good ball team Herzog set out to give the best he had and to make himself solid with the fans. Ho did all of this. His fielding and popper at second wore of a high grade and before the season finished he had set a world's record for consecutive games without making an error. Starting on August 9 ho went through the remaining games on the schedule without being charged with a mistake. Ho performed In forty five games in that time and accoptod 194 chance for a record that will pionship event, hold In PhiladQlphia.1 Merchant was unable to show to his best advantage. Having his heart set j on breaking a few records, he over taxed himself in tho trlal3 and took off his edge for tho finals. Handicapped by torn ligaments in! his right leg he easily distanced the j field In the hammer throw. His fling I was 159 feet 2 Inches; Ho has dono I around 1C4 foot in the coast meets this spring. Trainers bellove thut with a little more coaching he will equal the pres ent standing records of 1G4 feot 10 inches. 'made by Railey of Maine in 1915. : In the broad Jump the Callfornlan has done over 23 feet, and in the 'dashes he is very fast. lie Creels otr ft- I probably stand unshattercd for years. Terry had a chance to equal and possibly to surpass the brilliant ach- levement of Hcrzog as he went through eighteen games played by j th Cubs without making a blunder. That Is some achievement. In itself. Ho broke his fielding streak Tuesday in the first Inning of the game with I the Reds. When he booted Duncan's j grounder, letting two runs score. j GOLE IN SCOTLAND MU1RFIELD, Scotland. June 11. Robert A.

After winning his match with Gor don Lockart of Prostwlck, this morn ing by a score of one up, Gardner played with tho honorable Michael Scott of the Royal St. George's club, and earned his opportunity to contend for the championship honors. Scott won the first hole of the semi final round and Gardener squared It i u ' 1 -rvjsz- the century In 10 seconds flat. Also i he Is the coast's best javelin caster.

You may use them by the gallon, and rub the painful parts by the hour, getting possibly some temporary relief from the torturing pains, but yui arc making no headway whatever toward reaching the cause of tho disease. Medical scientists differ as to the causes of every form of rheumatism, but agree that when caused by n tiny disease germ, the only effective meth od of treatment is to attack tho dls case at its source, and cleanse the blood of its cause. The most common form of Bheuma; jH tism is caused by millions of tiny dis jH case germs which infest the blood. The ' one and only sensible treatment, there- I . jH fore, is one which cleanses the blood I ' JH of these germs, and routs them entire.- jH ly out of the circulation. This is why S. S. S., the greatest- IH known blood purifier is so successful IH in the treatment of Rheumatism.
