IshlnE an Egg-stealing servant.


Among tho passengers or a train
running into Buffalo the other day
was n spruce looking Young farmer
who occupied scat alone and ap.
peared TO be rejecting on something
really amusing. lie would now aud
then chucklo to himself as though he
had got the better Of some one in a
way that tickled thim. Finally an
Express reporter remarked TO him
that he looked particularly happy.
"Yes,n he said, II had a little fun
yesterday over serious matter. We
have a girl working for us who is
chain lightning at homework but is
light-fngered. We had missed a good
many little things from the house,
but had no evidence that she had
taken them. / observed, however,
that for some reason every time she
went to the home OF her parents she
carried u bundle of clothing and
brought it back again with precise
regularity Among the things we
missed most conspicuousIy was almost
the entire production OF eggs, but We
could not conceive Of a way in which
she could carry them home without
being detected in the act was
determined to ascertain il she carried
them away in the bundle, and so when
she arranged TO 20 home few days
ago l insisted upon driving over that
way l noticed at once that she was
not enthusiastic over the proposition,
but l was Just the same. When all
was ready ] caught up the regulation
bundle and ut once could feel the
eggs within. There must have been
two or three dozen In there /
handled it as though it was damag,
proof, and she grew correspondent
nervous. | put the bundle where on

and then and wondered what it coull
be. 1t was zero day, but when
turned to see how the girl was en-
joylng it the sweat was pouring down
her face and she looked the very
picture Of despair. l cracked 4 few
more eggs, and remarked about the
peculiar sound again. When we
reached her home l took good care
when / helped her out to hand her
the precious bundle. 1t was in con-
litition unfit for transportation but
| placed it In her hands with great
pleasure. l think she never will for
get just how she felt as she endeavored
to hang on to the bundle and keep
the eggs where she had placed them.
