YACHTING

GALATEA WINS LADIES' BACE.

I An exciting finish narked the ladies 'race, which was decided by the Port Nicholson Yacht Club on Saturday afternoon. Weather conditions favoured the ladies at the helm, for a light westerly prevailed at ilie start, and this later veered round to tho south, but did not increase to any extent. .The course was from Clydo Quay AVharf to and Bound the Jerniiigham buoy, to the eastern buoy off Pipitea Point, thence back to tho starting lino round a marked boal, thence to and around Jerningham buoy again, and back to the finishing lino. The change in the direction 01 tne wind toon after the erart of the raco made it a little difficult to negotiate Jeruingham tjiioy, J'.ost of the yachts libing round. Tho Mini, sailed by Miss Breen, led practically all tho uay, but on the apI proacli to the finishing line she was overtaken by the Galatea, sailed by Mrs. JliUman, and the Ailsa, sailed by Miss M'Lcnii. lieconds only separated the yachts in the finish, and first place was captured by the Galatea, which was followed by the Mini, thirty-five seconds behind, and the Ailsa third, fifteen seconds later. Throughout the race the ladies at the helm displayed much skill in handling their craft, and all the "skippers" thoroughly enjoyed the race. Tho following arc the finishing times: -Cialatea (6min.), •>!"•. 21min., 1; Miru (lSinin.), 4hr. 21min. Msec, 2; Ailsa (sci\). 4hr. 21min. f'Osec., 3; Venus (12 min.), Ihr. 23min.

MAKE PEACE WITH YOUR STOMACH. YOU CANNOT FOKCK your stoinacli to do work that it is unable to do. It has been tried time and again, with always the same result. The stomach is a good and faithful servant, bur, when pushed beyond tho limit, it rebels. Some stomachs will stand much more abuse than others, but every stomach has us limit, and when that limit is reached it is a very dangerous and umviso proceeding to attempt to force it into doiiy further work. 'Villi REASONABLE COURSE aim'tho most sensible is to. procure a substitute to carry on the work of digi'ilion, and give th'i' stomach an opportunity to recuperate and rami its Inst strength. fa.
