In the kitchen of her own home Sis
er Mary cooks daily for a family of
-four adults. She brought to her
kitchen an understanding of the
chemistry of cooking, gained from
study of domestic science I'm n state
university. Consequently n advice
she offers is a happy combination of
theory and practice. Every recipe she
gives is her own, first tried out and
served a her family table.
The Chinese n japanese, who
make the most delicious tea in the
world, always use an earthenware or
china tea pot.
Why? Because tea contains tannin,
an astringent. When boiling water
IS poured over tea leaves this tan
min is released in the form Of fannie
acid. The action of fannie acid on
metal produces an unwholesome
drink and an unpleasant flavor.
When l make tea 1 first scald my
tea pot, which is a china one. Then
I fill by teaball, a little owe half a
~teaspoonful of tea to a cup, put 1t in
the pot and pour fresh boiling water
through It. At the end of five min
utes the infusion" has hat delicate
fragrance the real tea lover demands,
so out comes my teaball n the tea
is ready to serve.
Never boil tea or let it steep too
long.
If there is any special reason for
using a silvr teapot, make the tea
first in your everyday, earthenware
tea pot and after scalding the silver
one thoroughly. pour in the tea to
serve.
Black teas, such as Oolong, Form
osa, English Breakfast, and so forth,
have a less stimulating effect thar
green tea and to my taste a sweeter
flavor. But the big man in our fam
lily prefers green tea, stepped to q
pale straw color, with three tea
s~poonfuls of sugar in his cup. He's
no respector of sugar shortages!

suffering from fatal diseases would be
in perfect health today were it not for
the deadly drug Nicotine: Stop the

tobacco habit in any form. Just go to
any u~p-to-date drug store and get
some Nicotol tablets; take them as di-
rected and 10; the pernicious habit
quickly vanishes. Druggists refund
the money If they fail. Be sure to read

tine poisoning and how to avoid IL. In

TENDER TAPS
DROP GERMAN
PRIZE BOXERS
Germany, Not to be Out
done, Has Taken Up
Manly Art. !

New York, Oct. 2S.-The spread Of
boxing to countries which previous to
the war were not familiar with the
ring game has resulted In q number
of novel incidents viewed in the light
OF American pugilistic traditions. Der
lin has been the scene OF belated at
tenpts to develope he t1stfc art and
at a recent series of contests the an
nouncer gave a little harangue in adj
vance, pointing out that as Germany
wanted to be or even terms in all
sports, boxing as fostered by French,
English and Americans had been in
troduced.
The first pair Of boxers came re-
~spectively from Berlin and Vienna
and weighed in at IFS and 12o Ger
man pounds respectively. The German
pound is .one-tenth heavier than the
American. It was characteristic that
no w boxers weighed h same. One
was invariably heavier and had the
advantage.
The first victim, after putting up q
fair show for two rounds, ran afoul
ofNa wild swing of his opponent, and,
go crude was the opponent, the
was really nothing more h a slap
in the face. They were eight ounce
gloves too. &fFF %
Down won't the boxer" who had
done so well for two rounds. He took
the count Of nine, rose. and In a few
seconds went down again. from a
blow that could, not nave been more
than a tap. He seemed to have lost
courage. and though he was never
''out' or anywhere near it. he lost all
interest in fighting. and obedientfy
perched himself on elbows and knees
as tho referee counted him ont.
The last bout was very short and
sweet principally because the far
heavier man was a German who had
lived In San Francisco for a long time

the second round that Hans hit Fried

out than the other defeated pugil-
lists. He had had enough, and lay
quietly until ten" had sounded. then
bounded to his feet and ran from the
ring.
In sharp contrast were the unusual
circumstances attending the victory in
man. over Walter Ross, the English
man, for the premier bantamweight
honors of Europe. The final blow was
delivered when Ross did not know
the fight was on" and when the ring
vas crowded with seconds and other
enthusiastic spectators.
