The Preservation oS Ewxu.

The Journal of the Medical Aacademy
of Turin, in recent number, says: The
sure and simple method of keeping eggs
soupd by smearing the shells with linseed
oil has long been practiced. The oil
forms sort of film over the shell, there
by preventing the two immediate causes
of decompostion-evaporation from and
penetration of air into the egg. A recent
experiment in point deserves notice. A
dozen new-laid eggs were rubbed over
with linseed oil applied with the tip of
the finger; another dezen were coated in
like manner with poppy oil; two mere
eggs were left in their natural state. The
whole twenty-six were then laid close
together in three rows, in dry sand upon
shelf, where they were left undisturbed.
At the end of three months they were
weighed, and again at the end of six
months, when they were opened. The
two eggs lcftin their natural state at the
end OF three months had lost i per cent.
Of their weight, and at the end of six
months IS per cent, and were found to
be half empty and the contents rotten.
The eggs coated with poppy oil in three
months lost 3per cent, and in six months
AZ per cent. of their weight. The eggs
were still full and devoid of unpleasant
smell. the eggs rubbed over with lin
ssed oil in three months lost per cent.
aud in six months 3 per cent. only Of
their weight, and when opened were
found to be full, with the smell of fresh
eggs.

morning of my departure, the cashier

of bank bills folded up and slowed them
away in my saddle-bags, and handed me
letters to the banks to whom the packages
were TO be delivered. He stunned me
by saying they amounted to S2O,ooo;;
