people do not understand. IL Ia this:
The white under three Minutes rapid
cooking becomes Tough and ipdiges.ib
while the yolk is lett soft. when pro-
perly cooked eggs are done evenly
through like any other food. This re.
suit may DO attained by putting the eggs
into dish with cover, as tin pail,
aud then pouring upon them boiling WA.
ter, two quarts or more TO the dozen
eggs, and cover and set them away from
the stove for fifteen minutes, the heas of
tue water cooks the eggs slowly and e.
venly and sufficiently and to ielly.iiko
consistency. leaving the centre or yolk
harder than the white. and the egg tastes
as much richer and nicer rs a fresh egg
- nicer than a stale egg. and no person
will want TO eat them boiled after having
tried this method once.

How TO FEgr SnsrLEp CoRN.--Nvhen
corn cannot be ground without too msch
expense. the next best way II to mix the
shelled corn with short cut corn stalks
