DAINTY BOXING GLOVE

Southern Woman Whips FiVe-ounce
Ring Mitt from Muff and
Lands Hard Right Jolt
to Face

NEW YORK, Jan. IA very pretty and
demure young woman was walking down
Broadway soon after dark the other day
when at Forty-hfth street man approached
her. He raised his hat and said insinuatngly
but confidently:
Fine evening, isn't it,?
He got no further. The young whip
ped her hand from the big muff she carried
and struck him full in the face. The fellow S
hat had fallen but, leaving it, he ran away
Lieut.. Leigh. charge of the uptown de-
tective bureau, happened to be near and ran
to the young woman, who was smiling pleas
anuy.
She showed her hand. On her left was a
thnly padded. the sort of glove that save
the knuckles from being broken when a hard
blow is delivered.
MY name is So-and-So." said the young
woman telling Leigh her name. Il board on
Forty-sixth street. between Fifth and Sixth
avenues. | came here several weeks ago from

PLATERS WILL
IA We CHANCE
TODAY's CARD ALMOST BARREN
OF FEATURES
Owners Will Be Given an Opportunity
to Pay Feed BilIs-La Gloria
Looks Like a Winner
in First
ny IRVING II. CLEMENT

Selling platers will have an inning this
afternoon and the poor owners will have
chance to reap enough money to pay
feed bills. With the exception of the sec
ond race the rest of the card is for
platers
The first race should go to La Gloria
although the distance is trife longer
than she cares to go. She has the speed
of this lot and will run her field dizzy
the early part of the race. Rustling Silk
looks like the contender, but can hardly
beat the top one. Lady Vashti ran some
good races here, and she will have
look in, as she is as game and fast as
they come. Illusion and Martha Jane
look best of the balance of the field, and
II long shot cops one of these two may
do it.
Paradise Queen won her race Monday
so easily that she looks to have an eX-
cellent chance to win today again. as
she is very good looking filly and quick
at the barrier Banthel is a fast trick
herself but will have to do better than
she has shown. Matte Russell and Bell
of Brass should argue for the short end
of the purse
The third race is very open affair and
fully half dozen figure very close up.
Escamado has been running into the
money so often that it is about time he
earned a set of brackets. TaXer Will go
well at this distance and if given good
ride will be bang up at the finish. Mlntta
has been running with better ones, and
she may upset calculations and beat them
all. Diamond should be a dangerous fac
tor but he is unreliable, as he is a bad
actor at the barrier and inclined to sulk.
Pontotoc and Red Garter figure up close
and may beat their rating.
Christine A. and Rubinon looked much
the best in the fourth of an ordinary lot,
and they should finish in the order named.
Talarand has the early speed of the lot
and should last long enough to peep. OF
the others BAIL is the only one that fig
ures with any kind of a chance.
Harvel looks to be in real soft spot in
the fifth race, and should towrope her
field the entire journey. as she is the
e.ass of the lot. Godfather has a lot of
early speed and should hold the balance
safe as far as show money is concerned.
Laudable should go well and has only Hal
to beat for show honors. The latter is
rank IN and outer and may finish closer
up than rated.
Sixteen maidens are carded to start in
the last event of the day, and they are
a very ordinary bunch. Form must be
thrown to the winds in this kind of
races. George Swain works well and with
a good boy in the saddle may be returned
winner Lisbia shows speed on occasions,
and with a good break today should finish
close up. Bazzini. if she runs to work.
has a good chance to get some part OIL
tha purse Arragon. Miss Himyar. An
doche and Barato should race well.

should have the money divided after the
general average Is figured. Ainslinger set
Mckee to the ropes at the first exchange
of raps, but the latter caught his gait in
stantly and had perhaps the best of the
going for the next four rounds.
Charlie rallied a little in the fifth but
was still wild from his former abuse and
was unable to get to work until the last
scene. If the sixth had come earlier
Ainslinger would have won the fight
clean. Mckee was sent to his knees for
the limit of soft stops and received more
battering i'm the round before the final
gong than at any other stage of the mix.

Weber in Wrong


The only thing to say about the hrst
of the six-course entrees between joe
Rivera and Max Weber is that Max was
dumped in the wrong basket to make his
first appearance.
The little splinter weight is fast and
can take more than his share of the rude
treatment, but the native son showed his
mastery Of the exhibit before the mill
was very old.
Rivera produced Z left swing out of his
supply of pain killers that did some
damage as soon as the introductions were
over and before the end of the first round
demonstrated that neither of his bread
winners had any of the palsy.
The second act found Webber walking
around in a circle trying to avoid the
punishment and with his mouth and nose
bleeding freely.
Rivera commenced dealing out the wash
lady stuff as fast as he could catch his
man in the third act. and after Weber
had led a few fast heats around the ring
he wilted under a shower of blows de-
livered by the Mexican lad.

How to Treat Naked Floors.

Those who have waxed floors In
their dwellings know, according to In
doors and Out, how invaluable turpen.
tine is in cleaning them. With sand
paper or steel wool, dipped in turpen-
tine, the blacklist coating, which is apt
to accumulate in winter on waxed
floors not frequently polished, can be
easily and quickly removed, and a
washing with turpentine does much to
brighten up any waxed floor prepara-
tory to the application Of light fresh
coat Of wax and polishing with the
weighted brush AS with all other
painters materials. however, turpen-
tine Is shamefully adulterated. and
care must be taken to get only the
best and purest from some thoroughly
reliable dealer. The usual adulter-
ant is cheap benzine. and as benzine
turns good floor wax dirty white tur-
pentine so adulterated mas an injurious
effect on the floor. The floor wakes"
made with tallow show less effect
from adulterated turpentine, but the
wise householder will use only those
floor wakes which are made with bees
wax and turpentine, with a little par
afin, but no tallow.

CURE ron DYSPEPSIA.
How This Distressing AiIsusnt May
Re Banished Without Drugs.

How This Distressing Ailsnent May
30 Ranisted Without Drugs.
It Is amazing that so common a DIFF
fculty as dyspepsia should be 20 little
understood ~ the general public and
that its remedy should be SO hard to
and. But it can be cured, and without
any marvellous nostrums. by observing
few important rules Of health, says
the Kansas City Times. The dyspep-
tic must first fix in his mind the fact
that his ailment is the result OF bad
habits of eating and living and that
these must be changed and that drugs
will do him no good. He must begin
by avoiding all starchy foods. as pota-
toes, rice, oatmeal. beans. etc. Meats,
soft boiled eggs, milk toast. zwieback,
ETC., are the best foods for avoiding
fermentation and the gas that causes
dyspepsia pains. In serious cases but
termilk is one of the best dependen-
cies. Another is boiled milk with a
slight addition of limewater. Either
of these will enable the most chronic
dyspeptic to procure some sustenance
without serious distress.
He should drink freely of hot water,
at least two quarts day, always tax
ing q glass half an hour before meal.
time. He should not crowd his meals
close together, as with an impaired
digestion it is often best to have the
meals six or seven hours or more
apart. The rule to be followed is that
a new meal should not be eaten until
the previous one is digested or out Of
the way and the stomach has had q
little rest, and there must be further
rest after eating.
1t is absolutely essential to eat slow
ly and chew with the greatest thor
oughness. Complete chewing in the
mouth, permitting no washing down
with coffee or tea, salivates the food
so that it is ready for digestion when
it goes into the stomach, and persis-
tence will put good flesh on any lean
dyspeptic. There is theory that when
solid food Is chewed in the mouth to
an absolute pulp that the organs in
the back of the mouth exercise selec-
tive action and send to the stomach
only that which is fitted to be convert
ed into blood and tissue, thus relieving
the digestive organs Of handling the
waste. Whether or not this is correct
is for the science of the future to de-
termine. Certain it is that nature gave
us grinding teeth for the purpose Of
chewing our food and never intended
that we should swallow it unchewed,
as do those animals having more than
one stomach.

How TO Rsnouate Old Silk.
