good story is told of grocer not far
from Boston town who had a customer
that must have fresh eggs every day. The
grocer weary Of having the eggs returned
as not fresh, tried putting the date when
laid upon all eggs sent to the customers
house. BY this means, it is said, some
grocers become so expert as to be able to
obtain fresh laid, Eastern or Western eggs
all from the same basket. With our Bos-
ton grocer-man il worked to a charm, un-
til one morning when preparing the eggs
to send his troublesome customer he for
got the day of the month and dated the
eggs ahead. At evening he was visited by
the gentleman, who producing one Of the
eggs remarked, Il findr said he, checking
a smile, "these eggs were laid tomorrow .
This story illustrates how difficult il is to
supply the demand for fresh eggs Ii has
never vet been done. For this reason some
egg -raisers, who are known to send honest
fresh eggs to market, get so cents a dozen
the year around. ANY kind OF decent
eggs viii bring forty cents or more during
the next eight weeks. Therefore make

IN Harrison A Descendant of Focal

the Parliamentary soldier and regicide Gen
eral Thomas Harrison, who was executed in
1860.
Pocahontas, daughter of Powhatan, mani

tiers of Virginia when she was but girl
The story of how she saved the life of Captain
John Smith, who had been captured and con-
demned to death by her father-how she, on
several occasions, made known to the settlers
their danger when about to be attacked-is
well-knowf TO all acquainted with the early
history of America. Her subsequent mar
rage vita John Rolfe, an Englishman-her
removal to England where q son was born,
from whom numerous wealthy families of Vir-
ginla claim descent-is the basis Of the opin-
ION that President Harrison is one of her de-
scendents
Whether this be true or not it is, however,
weil-known that President Harrison is a de-
scendant of noted family distinguished
alike in peace and war. The name of Harri-
son is already indelibly written upon the
pages of American history, for Gen VIM H.
Harrison-the ninth President of the United
States-was the grandfather of Gen. Ben.
