Reflections Of o Bachelor,

1t is all right to look on the bright side
as long as it doesn't make you squirt.
A woman would worry herself to death
over paying for her lot in the cemetery.
A wife always cries when she's mad,
and a husband is always mad when she
cries.
Every husband expects his wife to let on
before other people that he knows how to
cook.
No matter how many bundles a woman
has to carry, she can always fit q baby in

His voice was al- ways most winning, and his language simply perfect. He was one of the few Englishmen l knew who, instead of tumbling out their sentences like so many portmanteaus, bags, rugs and hat boxes from an open railway van. seemed to take real delight in build ing up their sentences, even in famil- far conversation, so as to make each deliverance a work of art. Later in life that even temperament may have suffered much, and one saw that his wounds had not quite healed.''

GGS, eggs, eggs. eggs in every way.
 How many eggs you think -are consumed in San Francisco
 on Easter SunCoyo Just stop and
 do a little lightning calculation of your own before you read on. And then find that, though you have placed the figures pretty high, you have fallen wide of the mark. For S--n Francisco never does anything by halves. and when 1t falls a-egg- eating 1t means that the chickens have had to do their level best to provide a supply of ;gs large enough to meet the demand.
 Between the hours of sunrise and sunset on Easter Sunday S00000 eggs are consumed in the city of San Fran cisco. Eight hundred thousand eggs demolished in one day! And that is conservative estimate arrived at by studying facts and figures as found in the books of produce houses that sup ply the market with eggs.

 Matthew Arnold Professor Muller had known at Oxford as an under graduate, and he watched and ad- mired him to the end of his life. He was beautiful as a young man, strong and manly, yet full of dreams ana schemes. His Olympian manners be- gan even at Oxford; there was no harm in them, they were natural, not put on. The very sound of his voice was Jovelike."
 He was a delightful man to argue with, not that he could easily be con- vinced that he was wrong, but ne never lost his temper and in the most patronizing way he would generally end by. "Yes, yes! my good fellow, you are quite right. but, you see, my vieW

falling off in the egg sales. An anti egg feeling, as it were, sets in. There are those who even wait a year before failing to again. But when Easter comes round again they join the jubi- lant throng in trying to drive the egg consumption of San Francisco over the 100000 mark and join the joyous Eas- ter shout of eggs, eggs, eggs.
 Of Ruskin Professor Muller says that he was uncompromising and se- were only with his pen. He was re- ally the most tolerant and agree able man in society. He could dis cover beauty where no one else could see 1t, and make allowances where others saw no excuse. l remember him as diffident as young girl. full

If ever there was an active. power full brain, adds Muller, 1t was Rus kin's. He worked very hard. but l doubt whether hard work by itself can ever upset a healthy brain. His was very sensitive nature, and an over wrought sensitiveness is much more likely to cause mischief than steady intellectual effort.
 T remember taking Emerson to lunch with him in his rooms in Corpus Christi College Emerson was an old friend of his, and in many respects cognate soul. But some quite different subject turned up, heated discussion ensued. and Ruskin was so upset that he had to quit the room and leave us alone. Emerson was most unhappy

of the matter Is different, and I have little doubt it is the true one!"
 Of living personages, and especially of living royalties, Professor Muller abstains from recording his recollec- tions, a wise abstention. yet one which undoubtedly robs his readers of much interesting material. But here and there a harmless anecdote finds it's way through his reticence.
 Thus he resolutely closes his lips in regard to the Prince of Wales stay at Oxford, save that he considers himself entitled to produce one small treasure from the many he has stored in his memory. This Is a sixpence which he won from his royal highness at whist.
 T have always been a very bad whist player, but good luck would have it that I won a sixpence at Frewen Hall. the Princes residence at Oxford. The Prince maintained that I had calcu- lated my points wrongly, but not be- ing courier, I held my own and actually appealed to General Bruce. When he decided in my favor. the Prince graciously handed me my six pence, which I have kept ever since among my treasures"

equally distributed. would give each in- dividual 2-3 eggs.
 In one way or another San Francisco consumes it's twenty eight miles of eggs soft or hard. colored or natural, boiled, fried. poached. baked, scrambled or rolled into an omelette. Some like them hot some like them cold. children have even been known to eat them nine days old.
 Next day there Is generally sudden

ratio as incredibly large as the number consumed by the entire population.
 The hotels and restaurants use an un usually large number of eggs on Easter. Nearly everyone eats eggs for break fast on that day even though they es- chew them on all other days Then dishes are selected for the menus that require a great many eggs. great many families make of the Easter morning breakfas. an egg eating con- test.
 The bakeries do their share to bring the number up to S00,000. Not only Is the demand for pi' s and cakes greater on holidays, but in order to have their confections especially good 1t Is neces- sary to use a larger number of eggs than are ordinarily put into them.
 Since there are almost 300. .o0o people in San Francisco the S00.000 eggs. If
The San Francisco call., 1898-04-10

place the total number of eggs con- sumed at a higher figure. But averag- ing the figures offered by those who have the necessary data to make computation, the result is the startling fact that 800,0 900 eggs are used on Eas- ter Sunday.
 The average length of an ego is 2A inches. therefore S00000 eggs would, If nlaced side by side, make a line little over twenty-eight miles - length. Or fin other words, San Francisco on Eas- fer Sunday consumes twenty eight miles of eggs.
 According to the City Surveyors fig Ires it is a little over seven miles from the foot of Market street to the Cliff House If you started in at the foot of Market street and strung S00OO0 eggs. one touching the other, from that point to the Cliff House, you would have enough eggs to place double row on each side of the street the entire dis tance. And there would still be enough left to make scrambled eggs for hun dred of the biggest egg-eaters that the city could produce.
 Just to what use the S00,O00 eggs or twenty eight miles of eggs are put 1t Is hard to say accurately. A large number of them are converted into bril- liant colored hard boiled Easter eggs to delight the eyes of the children at the expense of their stomachS if they at tempt to eat too many. Easter comes but once year and most children are allowed to give their appetites full swing The number of eggs that one healthy child can consume is in direct
