The best way to boil eggs is not to
boil 'em at ALL Put them in tin dish
and pour on boiling water; cover the
dish tight and set back where the water
will merely keep hot; let it etsnd from
ten to fifteen minutes, according to the
size of the eggs, or the preference of the
eaters for ''hard or ''soft" The eff
| feet is quite different from that produced
| by boiling, both the flavor and texture
of the egg being so superior to any other
way of cooking by means of hot water
i that those who have tried it will hardly
be likely to return to the old way.
RIGHTS OF M4RRIED WOMEN.
| Until within comparatively a late pc
riod the rights OF married women to hold
property apart from their husbands were
few. Circuitous legal processes were
employed to protect their estates from
profigate husbands or from those hus-
bands creditors. During the past decade
or two much has been done to throw ad-
ditiona1 safeguards round the estates of
wives. In nearly all the States of the
Union laws have been passed which more
OF less perfectly enable the wife to hold
property or carry ON business for herself.
In conservative England an advance has
been made in the same direction, but
not to the same length. Wives have
there been robbed of their earnings by
worthless husbands, and the law has in
terposed no barrier Creditors have
stripped women of all they had, that
they might get paid for debts for which
the husband alone was responsible. A
better day has dawned, however, and it
is refreshing to hear of Il recent decision
of the Vice Chancellor Mrs. Antram,
before her marriage, had made money
by canning fruit. Her husband died
without making will, and, on account
of his intestacy, his relatives laid claim
to what his wife had brought him, as
well as to his own property. The court
very equitably held that neither the hus-
band nor his heirs had any right to the
woman's property.
