In fact, it is only in the army ano

WORD "GENTLEMAN."

A FRENCH critic. discussing the
n recent famous battle for the
boxing championship of the
world, expressed surprise that SO
many Americans should have favored
the challenger from abroad.
Perhaps If he had stopped to think
for moment he would have realized
that, after all. this Is In the true
sporting spirit.
That spirit is at times hard to cul-
tivate. It is natural for city to
want its home team to win In baseball,
and for college to wish to see Its
young giants sweep all before them
on the diamond, the links and the
gridiron.
ITO have and to hold" is the motto
Of national or international sport from
yachting to polo.
It is reasonable for nation not to
wish to lose any championship once
1t has obtained 1t.
Various explanations have been
given of the popularity Of Carpenter,
the best small man who stood up to
the best big man in their business In
the world today.
A ray of light is thrown on the
matter by word that was used by
several experts in describing the at
fair. They said that the Frenchman
fought like a gentleman and lost like
one.
This involved no reflection On the
champion, because nothing Of an "un'
gentlemanly" nature was done by any
body on the memorable occasion In
question.
The interesting thing is the use OF
the word gentleman"
It is an expression that Americans
have been shy of from the earliest
days. partly because it conveyed q
suggestion Of class distinction in q
country that has no Glasses and
partly because the word was hard to
define even In countries where II
was in common use.
There Is no doubt that in the
etrictest sense Of the expression
George Washington, Thomas Jefferson
and John Adams were gentlemen"
Yet there can be equally little doubt

MERCHANT TELLS OF
A REMARKABLE CASE

Writing from Maxey's, Ca, A. J.
Gillen, proprietor of large depart

i have customer here who was In

sicians and they gave her out. One
bottle OF Tanlac got her up, on the
second bottle she commenced keeping
house and on the third she did all the

FARM OPPORTUNITIES

AM constantly In receipt Of letters
1 from women tired Of Office work
who ask what chance they would
have In Investing their savings in q
small farm. They want a home, they
want to be their own masters. they
long for the country after years OF
combining labor at a desk.
Success in farming requires train
ing and experience as well as wish
for that type OF work. A good bust
ness training and initiative are excel
lent as stock In trade, but there should
be more than that. Farming is no easy
job.
Two young women tell me that they
are making money with small sheep
farm. There is plenty Of demand both
for the wool and the meat. But these
two women also run an apiary, mar
keting their honey. In a distinctive
package. It Is the finest honey. and
thAy charge high price for 1t. They
have worked up trade with list OF
private purchasers, and sell through
the mail.
The thing is to have only the very
highest class of produce, to charge
high for it, to put It into attractive
and striking packages that are an ad-
yertisement in themselves, and to sell
direct to the consumer. With the par
eel post this is possible. We find 1t

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS

derivation has modified the
spelling and the very shape in

The Interpolation OF the -
n the first syllable came about
when these hordes burst into
Europe during the Thirteenth
century and swept everything
before them. Many persons
claimed that the ravages OF the
invading cavalry constituted
fulfllnent Of the prophecy In
the ninth chapter Of Revelation
concerning the opening OF the
.botfomless pit and the l0osing Of
the inhabitants Of the internal
regions. From this belief en-
sued the change Of their name
from "Tatersr to s@Tartars," the
latter being an outgr0wth OF
Tartarus, or hell. whence these
implacable hordes were sup
posed to have come.
The bravery Of the Invaders,
together with their stole disre-
eartl for pain and the manner In
which they turned upon their
guards when captured. also gave
rise to the expression catch q
