Eat Leas and Eat 1t Slowly.

Economic methods Of eating are SO
important and 30 automatic that It
really occasions some surprise that
more Is not known about the matter.
Horace Fletcher, In his famous A B z
books on nutrition, very wisely insists
upon the necessity Of slow masticatlon
with abundant insalivation. It is real
ly astonishing how badly people nee
the teeth nature gave them for this
purpose. Children naturally bolt their
food. SO It Is said, and adults retain the
habit. Not having the digestive power
OF cats or dogs, which naturally bolt
their food, It results that much Of our
food is undigeated and wasted.

BOXING NOTES.

Honey Melody, of Charlestown, and
Terry Martin. of Philadelphia, have been
matched for a meeting in Maine early in
January.
Amby McGarry and his old-time rival
INK Russell, have been matched for a
six-rOund meeting in Philadelphia, to take
place New Years eve.
Darkey Haley. of England, who ar
rived in New York a few days ago, has
been matched to fight Tommy O'Toole in
Philadelphia January T.
Frank Manteu, Of Pawtucket. one of
the coming Iight-weights of New England,
has been matched with Tom Sayers, of
Maine. and will fight in Augusta.
The followers of boxing. or at least
some of them, are figuring it out that
Kid Herman will have just about the
same chance against Joe Cans that Tom
my Burns had against Jack O'BrieE.
II Dave Deshler whips Charlie Neary
when they meet in Milwaukee on New
Years Day he viii be given a chance
with Jimmy Britt in Los Angeles some
time during the latter part of January.
Harry Lewis is in Denver training for
his fight with Jimmy Gardner January
8. and with Dick Hylands two weeks
later ana MS AIleuuS are Ddlhius On
him to win both matches, though Lewis
is up against the hardest proposition he
ever tackled since he started in the fight
ing game
Jimmy Briggs, of Chelsea, and Young
Corbett are to be matched for a meet
ing in Providence at the Standard Ath-
letic Club, after the latter's bout with
Tommy Murphy. This is, of course, pro-
vided that Young Corbett makes a good
showing against Murphy. In case he
should fail TO do so, INK Russell, Of
Philadelphia, viii be put on instead.
Bat Nelson says that when he goes
to his old home in Copenhagen, Den
mark, people viii think Jim Jeffries re-
tired because he was afraid to meet
him. Bat and Manager Nolan have tried
to get away with even bigger bluffs than
that.

BURGOMASTER And ARTFUL
Whitney Horses viii Be Entered IN
Big Stake Events.
Both Went Wrong Last Spring, But
They Are Rounding Into
shape Again.

New York, Dec 23.-Next week entries
Will close for the Brooklyn and Suburban
Handicap and few weeks later Handi-
capper Vosburgh viii make known the
weights. If Il p. Whitney enters Artful
and BUrgOmaster, which now seems prob
able, they viii probably receive the top
impOsts. Burgomaster is more likely to
race than Artful The Hamburg colt, who
looked like the champion three-year-OId of
the season, when he went wrong last
spring, has been coming around nicely
since he was fired and blistered- A
slightly bowed tendon threw him out Of
training, but John W. Rogers. at the
time, did not relinquish all hope of get
ting Burgomaster back to the races.
The Hamburg colt, magnificent race
horse in all that the word implies, is
wintering well and has apparently recov-
cred from his disability TO such an extent
that MI Whitney and his trainer be
lieve that he VIII go TO the post early
next year.
ATtful. who went wrong several days
before the Brooklyn Handicap was run
last spring, has not improved so rapidly
as Burgomaster, but there is still a
chance that she may be able TO face the
starter again. Accountant, who carried
OF nearly all the three-year-old stakes in
the East, will surely be named for the
handicap, together with the crack three
year-oid mare Whimsical, Flip Flap,
TangIe. and Running Water, the three
year-Old OrmOndale, and others OF the
same age.
OF the older division, Go-Between, win
ner of this years Suburban, and Tokalon,
victorious in the Brooklyn, VIII also be-
found among the big handicap entries. IL
is an accepted prophecy that the Hitch
cock ir.rs Salvidere, the champion two
vear-oId Of 1896, VIII receive the post of
honor among the coming three-yeaT-olds
in the weight assignments for the SUbur-
ban, Brooklyn, Brighton, and other
big events for which he VIII probably be
named. Nealon, now owned by Boots
Durneu, viii also be named for nearly
all the distance events to be run in 1907.
