Eggs as Food.

Eggs, at average prices, are among
the cheapest and most nutritious arti-
cles of diet. Like milk, an egg is a
complete food in itself, containing
everything necessary for the develop
ment of aperfect animal, as is manifest
from the fact that a chick is formed
from it. 1t seems a mystery how mus
cles, bones, feathers, and everything
that a chicken requires for its perfect
development are made from the yelk
and white of an egg; but such is the
fact, and it shows how complete a food
an egg is. It is also easily digested, if
not damaged by cooking. Indeed, there
is no more concentrated and nourishing
food than eggs The albumen, oil and
saline matter are, as in milk, in the
right proportion for sustaining animal
life. Two or three boiled eggs, with
the addition of a slice or two Of toast,
will make a breakfast sufficient for a
man, and good enough for a king.
According to DR.. Edward Smith, in
his treatise OF "Food,'' an egg weigh.
ing an ounce and three-quarters con
tains 120 grains of carbon and 17a
grains of nitrogen, or 1926 per cent. of
carbon and two per e of nitrogen.
The value Of one pound of egg, as food
for sustaining the active forces of the
body, is to the value of one pound of
lean beef as 1854 to 900. As a flesh
producer, one pound of eggs is about
equal to M pound OF beef.
A hen may be calculated to consume
one bushel of corr yearly. and to Law
ten dozen or fifteen pounds of eggs.
This is equivalent to saying that three
and one-tenth pounds of corn will pro-
duce, when fed to a hen, five-sixths of a
pound of eggs; but tive-sixths of a pound
of pork require about five pounds Of
corn for its production. Taking into
accoun the nutriment in each and the
comparative prices of the two on an
average, the pork is about three times
as costly a food as the eggs, while it is
certainly less healthful Boston Journal

"Oh, that mean that the dog will be
at home to receive calls from other dogs
on Saturdays, and that bones will be
provided as refreshments. Yes, I know
it's a simple idea, but nevertheless it's
ruethatsome people are supplemented
enough OF the subject of their pets to
get cards engraved for them. The
fashion was set in Boston last spring.
but we only got our first order in Octo-
Der, and the others have all been given
since that time. The one with the Single
name Jack on it was entered by a
young lady, who said it was absurd to
put your w name after the dogs; but
it did not seem to occur to her that II
was absurd for a dog to have a VISITING
card. Nearly all of the ladies-all the
orders are from ladies-have ordered a
hundred cards, but only one lady has
ever come back for a second edition.
Cats?' No; we never get any up for
cats, for, you see, people can not take
cats out with them as they can dogs."-
