ÖMEtHING TO

THUNES By F. A. WORD "GEXTXE3IAX." A FRENCH critic, discussing the recent famous battle for the boxing championship of the world, expressed -surprise that so many Americans should have favored the challenger from abroad. Perhaps if he had stopped to think for a moment ho would have realized that, after all, this Is in the true porting spirit. That spirit is at times hard to cultivate. It is natural for a city to want Its home team to win In baseball, and for a college to wish to see its young giants sweep all before them on the diamond, the links and the gridiron. "To have nnd to hold" is tho motto of national or international sport from yachting to polo. a a- a It Is reasonable for n nation not to wish to lose any championship once it lias obtained it. Various explanations have been given of tho popularity of Carpentler, the best small man who stood up to the best big man in their business in the world today. A ray of light Is thrown on the matter by a word that was used by several experts in describing the affnir. They said that the Frenchman fought like a gentleman and lost like one. This involved no retlection on the champion, because nothing of an "ungentlemanly" nature was done by anybody on tho memorable occasion In question. Tho Interesting thing is the use cf the word "gentleman." a a a It is an expression that Americans have been shy of from the earliest days, partly because it conveyed a suggestion of class distinction in a country that has no "classes" and partly because the word was hard to define even in countries where it ' was in common use. There Is no doubt that In the strictest sense of the expression, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson and John Adams were "gentlemen." Yet there can be equally little doubt T7

"T ART AR," as applied to the wild tribes which inhabit middle and an tral Asia, is one of those words in which a wrongly assumed derivation has modified the s s spelling and tho very shape In I which we now have it, for the people usually designated by this name are not "Tartars." but "Täters." The Interpolation of the "r" in the first syllable came about when these hordes burst into Europe during the Thirteenth century and swept everything I a X before them. Many persons claimed that the ravages of the t invading cavalry constituted a fulfillment of" the prophecy in the ninth chapter of Revelation I concerning the opening of the bottomless pit and the loosing of t the inhabitants of the internal regions. From this belief ensued tli change of their name from "Täters" to "Tartars the latter being an outgrowth of Tartarus or hell, whence these implacable hordes . were supoed To have come. The bravery of the Invaders, together with their stole direganl for pain and the manner In which they turned upon their guard-' when captured, also gave rie to the expression "catefi a, Tartar" or "he caught a Tartar," which Is in use to this day as a synonym for being taker by surprise, particularly when a Ierson thinks that he lias made an easy eoirtiuest. iCopyright.)

They want a home, they want to be their own masters, they long for the country after years of confining labor at a desk. Success in farming requires training and experience as well as a wish for that type of work. A good business training and initiative are excellent as stock In trade, but there should be more than that. Fanning is no easy job. Two young women tell me that they are making money with a small sheep farm. There is plenty of demand both for the wool and the meat. But these two women also run an apiary, marketing, their honey, in a distinctive package. It is the finest honey, and they charge a high price for it. They have worked tip a trade with a list of private purchasers, and sell through tho mail. The thing is to have only the very highest class of produce, to charge high for it. to put it into attractive and striking packages that are an advertisement in themselves, üid t' svll direct t( :he -onumor.

In discussing "the idea of a university" gave a considerable part of his time to the effort to. define a "gentleman." He, of course, had no more sympathy than any American would have with tho view, not uncommon in parts of Europe, that a "gentleman" is a man who has no profession or business; who has nothing to do but nothing. In olden days a "gentleman" was supposed to bo like Bayard, "without fear and without reproach; kind to women andwhlldren; gentle in leaco am! careless of his own safety when duty called him." It Is an Interesting thing to find the word used In the case of a professional boxer. (Copyright.) Trifles. Break one egg into a bowl, add onefourth of a teaspoonful of salt, and one and one-half tablespoonfuls of powdered sugnr. Add flour, stirring until the mixture will take no more. Turn on to a floured board, divide Into three parts and roll as thin as possible. Cut into narrow strips or squares and fry in deep hot fat. Sprinkle with powdered sugar mixed with cinnamon. ; Fritter Batter. Mix and sift together one cupful of flour and one-fourth of a teaspoonful of salt. Add two-thirds of a cupful of milk gradually, and two eggs beaten thick, one tablespoonful of olive oil and the whites of the eggs folded in after being beaten stiff.
