Eggs as Food.

Eggs are a cheap and nutritious form of
food and easily digested, if not damaged
in cooking. A raw or soft-bOiled EGG is
almost as easily assimilated as milk and
can be eaten with impunity by children
and invalids. The average egg weighs a
thousand grains, and is worth much more
as food than so much beefsteak. Indeed
there is no more concentrated and nourish-
ing food than eggs. The albumen, oil,
and saline matter are. a in milk, in just
the right proportion for sustaining animal
life. When eggs bring no more than
twenty cents per dozen. it Is much better
economy to find market for them in the
family than ut the store. Two or three
properly boiled or poached eggs, with the
addition of a slice or two of bread, will
make a breakfast sufficient for Il man. and
good enough for king. An ordinary
hens egg weighs from one and a half to
two ounces. ducks egg from two to
three ounces. the egg OF the sea-gull and
the turkey from three to four ounces, and
the egg of agoose from four to six ounces
The solid matter and the oil in the duck 5
egg exceed those in the hen'segg by about
one-fourth. According to Dr. Edwin
Smith. in his treatise on Foods" an egg
weighing an ounce and three quarters,
consists of 100 grains of carbon and 1875
grains of nitrogen, or 1925 per centum of
carbon and per centum OF nitrogen.

Giants in these Days.

Captain Martin Van Buren, Bates, who
lives on farm near Seville. Ohio, is seven
feet IL 1-2 inches high, and weighs 47S
pounds. Mrs. Bates is seven feet IL
inches high, and weighs Alb pounds. 1t
is difficult matter 10 convey an adequate
idea of the proportions OF such dwelling
as the one occupied BY the Ohio giants.
A door that is six feet six inches high, is
large sized opening in the side Of a
house-that i. dwelling house not "A

of the Bates giants are 10 feet high, and
the knobs are nearly as high as the report

an ordinary sized floor. 1t is really ten
feet long. wide in proportion, and
about twice as high as a common bed.
The magnificent dressing case is also a
huge affair. with glass upon it nearly az
big a the side of house. In the sitting
room is piano of ordinary size itself. but
it is mounted on blocks two feet high, so
that the instrument is away up in air, out
OF the reach of common folks. There are
two rocking-chairs in this room that are
so big that the reporter had to climb up
into one OF them the same as an infant

of the vehicle used. 1t is pulled by six

make man think he has got 'em sure. to

She opened her mouth. The venGmOus

NEW York, April 15.-Judge Hilton
says regarding his retirement from the
business Of A. T. Stewart 4 Co. that he
il simply tired Of business and that the
6rm did not withdraw from trade be-
cause they were unsuccessful. The pol
icy instituted by Mr.. Stewart has been
adhered to since his death. Hilton
thinks his attitude toward the He
brews was an advantage to his business.
The leading dry goods merchants de-
clare that the house has been declining
ever since Stewart's death; that the
management was not good; that the re-
mOval Of the Wholesale house up town
was great mistake and that Stewart &
Co. g trade was seriously affected by the
loss Of Hebrew patronage.
