Their Varue resides in their, richness
In aromatic substances and essential
oils; strictly speaking, they are not
foods, but often enough they are es-

have been the subject of classic re-

and important investigation which
PaWlow undertook as to the psychic
influences Of food and as to- the value
Of zest in nutrition.
Spices were shown to arouse appe-
tite and to promote the secretion Of
the gastric juice, and the role they
play therefore in 'dieteties is a very
important one. The medicinal action
Of some of them Is further of value.
Allspice, for, example, is used as an
aromatic and has been successfully ad-
ministered for flatulency or for over
coming gripping due to purgatives, and
occasionally It is reported that the oil
gives relief in rheumatism and neural.

The medical uses of cinnamon are
well known. Cardamoms are used in
the form of tincture as aromatic and
stomachic and they are also employed
as favoring agent in curry powder,
cakes and liqueurs. The applications
OF capsicum and the peppers general
ly are well known. Cloves are aro-
matte, carminative and stimulant and
have been used in dyspepsia, gastric
irritation and in cases of vomiting in
pregnancy.

The young lady who described q

For burglars are among the few per.

Gentle manners have had their high
est development IN periods when time

New York, the people who rode In the
crosstown horse cars--relics Of an cas-

politeness which, by contrast %ith the
boorishness SO painfully evident else

WILL BACK JEANETTE
 AGAINST ANY BIG FIGHTER

Dan McKetrick, manager of Joe Jeannette. is highly wrought up over the statement of Joe Woodman to the effect that Joe Jednnetts has stead fastly refused to box Sam Langford at 25 rounds or to a finish. McKet- rick says:
 '"The screams of Joe Woodman that .Jeannette has refused to meet Lang ford are nothing more or less than the rawlings of an over fertile imagina- ton. As matter of fact, Langford and Jeannette were matched to box at Jimmy COffroth's arena in Califor- mia, but just as l wa.9 ready to leave for the coast to fill the engagement, Langford and Woodman decided to leave for Australia.
 ''I am ready to back Jeannette against any man in the world today, Jack Johnson preferred. At present, he is matched to box two men in the same ring m Philadelphia next Mon day night, and I am willing to let him box any two of the white hopes we have around here. I have written Coffroth asking for a match with either Jim Flynn or Tommy Burns. The last named has announced his in teEtion of returning to the arena and meeting Johnson, and if he is able to make fair showin against Joe. Johnson might consider him."

Mcfarland To Box
 Murphy In March
Chicago Lightweight Match ed to Meet Harlem Tom
 my for 10 Rounds

Packey Mcfarland, the classy light weight, who has helped to extensively advertise Chicago within the past few years, has been matched to fight Tommy Murphy ten rounds at the Fairmont A. c. New York, next month. Mcfarland has been seeking a match with the Flatbush pride ever since Tommy gave him a close call in their San Francisco engage ment not many weeks ago.
 The showing of Murphy in this bout was a surprise to all the dopesters for they expected the Fastener to fade before the twenty rounds had elapsed. When Tommy stayed the limit and was battling like bag of wildcats at the finish it smashed the dope to smithereens. Though he re- ceived the verdict Packey was disap- pointed, and the second he hit New York he beseeched Billy Gibson to try and inveigle Murphy into a return match.
