How an Egg Should Be Boiled.

There is no better way to boil an egg
than not to put it ON the fire at all. In

said the tendency of the times was ''to
produce millionaires on one hand and
paupers on the other he uttered half a
truth. The resources of the country
are so great and its business oppor-
tuntes so many and so encouraging
that they do tend to produce mil"
lionaires. But they do not tend to pro-
duce paupcrS. More men are raising
themselves from poverty to attiuence
today than ever before. Mr.. Simpson :
own state is Boosting just now of the
number of her people who were poor
last year and are rich this year. The
opportunity to advance is open to all
and if any are paupers it is because Of
their own mental or physical defects,
and not the fault of the country or the
times
