CAN FRANCISCO, March 2.-Some

some are sent into good compa-
ny tine instant they show evidence OF
class.
When the suspicion developed that
Carl Morris, of Oklahoma, might one
day develop into a world beater, all
kinds of precautions were taken to
safeguard him while he was learning
the trade of the ring. A millionaire
took hold OF him and furnished him
with experienced tutors in addition
TO building a gym for him.
When big Carl was finally launched
on the sea of professional pugilism
he bumped into all kinds of rocks
both charted and uncharted. He has
been laid up for repairs frequently
and now they are talking of sending
him against Sam Langford.
Bob McAllister, too. was sent along
slowly; and what happened TO him
when he got into the full swirl OF
things in the East suggests that the

First they sent him against Harry

Without delay Kaufman was

a slasher and a singer.

what a terror Kaufman had proved as
an amateur.

SOUPS THAT WILL BE LIKED
For the Colder Days There Is Moth
Ing Better Than That Made With
Peas-other Suggestions.

To make thick pea soup wash and
soak overnight one pint of split peas.
Next morning put them into a pot
with two quarts of water. Meantime
fry until brown two sliced onions and
head of celery in two ounces Of
clarified dlirring. Put them In with
the peas ant two slices of bread cut
diagonally, a feaspoonful of salt and
half that amount OF pepper. Bring
to the boil, simmer for one and a
half hours. rub through sieve. add
one pound of mashed potatoes. return
1t all to he pot and bring once more
just to the boiling point Strain II
desired. IL the soup is not thick
enough add a tablespoonful each OF
-four and butter rubbed together and
let the soup heat for FIVE minutes
longer. This soup is very nutritious
and would take the place Of meat.
For a good cabbage soup remove
the outer leaves from two small cab
bages and cut into shreds with half
head of celery. Soak in boiling water
for ten minutes. drain and cool in
fresh boiling water for ten minutes.
Once more drain and place in a pan
with two pints of stock or water, one
ounce OF finely minced sweet herbs
and pepper and salt to taste. Then
bring to boil and simmer for fifteen
or twenty minutes. Serve with grated
cheese.
Potato soup is good and cheap, es-
pecially II made without meat, al
though scraps of meat or gravy may
be added If liked. Cut three medium
| sized potatoes into thin slices. add
one small slice onion and a handful
OF rice. Boil in water sufficient to
cover. Parsley heightens the flavor,
but II should be lifted out when well
cooked. When the potatoes are done
blend piece OF butter the size of an
egg with Drowned -four and stir It
into the soup. This gives rich color
and appetizing flavor Milk may be
added, but it should be sparingly
used. You may add carrots. beans,
| peas and other leftover vegetables to
such soup. Drop dumplings are nice
TO serve with this soup. Take one
egg. one-half eggshell OF water, a
pinch OF salt and one teaspoonful OF
baking powder. Add enough -four to
make a dough that will drop easily
from a teaspoon. Remove when they
rise to the top of the soup

ingredients and Directions for Making
Vegetable PURGE, Liked by
Everybody.

Any vegetable PURGE can be pre-

prevent the vegetables burning; then
add a quart OF liquid. with few pep
percorns and seasoning, and let IL all
simmer till tender (for about one and
