The latest advice for keeping eggs
comes from farmers wife. She takes
long stockings. fills them with eggs.
ties them shut and hangs them in the
cellar and garnet in current OF air.
Every week or two she takes the stock

down This is quite an important part
OF the method. Eggs have been kept
sweet for long time in this manner.

The Bible which was used in the
ceremonies beginning the celebration
in this city OF the fiftieth anniversary
Of the state of California has a historI
that is very interesting. In 1919 a
young man In coming across the plains
found a pile of books by the side OF
the road with a stick stuck among
them bearing a note telling travellers
TO help themselves. The young man
in searching through the old volumes
found handsome Bible. which he con-
sidered a shame to be left upon the
dreary desert. He placed il in his
pack and carried it to Sacramento. He
presented il TO DIR. R. II. Mcdonald,
who At that time conducted a drug
store in that city. Some time after the
advent OF the Bible into Sacramento a
meeting was called in that city for
the purpose of founding a lodge OF
Masons. That was on Jan. s. 1850.
and the lodge was to be known as

that the meeting place was adjoining
the premises occupied by DIR. Melon
aid. When it was convened 1t was
found that there was no Bible at hand
with which to conduct the ceremonies
and DIR. Mcdonald presented the book
that had been given to him by the
young man for the lodges use. On
the 18th OF the following April the
grand lodge of Masons was formed and
the Bible again played an important
parT in the ceremonies. After the form
alton OF the grand lodge the name OF
Connecticut lodge was changed to Te-

Guarding the Trans-SIberian Railroad.
The Trans-Siberian railroad is very
closely guarded, the management feel
ing personally responsible for the peo-
pie they carry on their trains. The
road is divided into sections OF one
verst, OF five-eighths Of a mile. In
neat little log house. usually in gar
den, live the guard and his people.
The average family is a wife and five
tow-headed children. The houses were
built by the company and evidently
with a view to meeting the demands
of increasing families. The guard or
member of his family must patrol his
section night and day. He steps to the
side of the track as the train ap-
breaches and after IL has passed steps
back into the middle of the track.
holds a small green flag in the air, at
night a lantern, and stands like
statue until the train has entered the
next section. Several guards do duty
in the heavy curves and frequently
they are only few hundred feet apart.
Much of the track patroling is done by
women, who have proved fully as re-
liable as the men. The women are
nearly always barefooted. and as they
stand on the track holding the flag
aloft. a Siberian breeze toying with
their short skirts. they are ine sub

Never have the arrangement for
dealing with the wounded been in so
thoroughly satisfactory a condition as
they are today. says the Church Fam
lily Newspaper. During an engagement
and as the troops advance the wound
ed are sought out as quickly as may be
possible. their wounds temporarily
dressed. fractures temporarily spiinted
and any other first aid" given that
may be necessary. Indeed, in the pres
ent campaign each soldier carries with
him a small first aid" equipment in
his tunic. so that he may bandage him
self or temporarily arrest bleeding, or
give such help to a wounded comrade.
After first aid" is rendered the
wounded are borne on comfortable lit
tiers to the dressing places, which are
sheltered spots a short distance be-
hind the line of battle-usually in the
rear of the artillery. Here they are ex-
amined by the surgeons: hemorrhage
is securely arrested; bullets which can
be easily and quickly removed are
taken away; foreign bodies and splint-
ers of bone or shell. IL loose. are re-
moved: limbs so secured as to render
transport to the field hospital easy and
comfortable and anything else done
which can be done with ease and "a
pidity. No big operation is done at
these spots except in the case of limbs
so shattered as to require immediate
amputation The surgeons at the
dressing places" do only what is alb
solutely necessary. and then the
wounded are made comfortable in spe-
ciaIly constructed ambulance wagons
and transported to the field hospital.

AFTER all, Bryan hasn't turned out
so bad as Daniel. In one of lis mete-
oric flights of eloquence four years ago
he declared, in his characteristic style,
that the American people intended to
put stop to the habit of borrowing
money from England. This Innovation
was promptly inaugurated, beginning
with the date of his defeat, and such
progress has been made since that
memorable epoch that Johnny Bull
has, under the painful pinch of necess
ity, tapped at the door of Uncle Sam.
uel and gone away with gladdened
heart. 1t appears that Bryan can see
a thing or two In advance, even
though he does find it necessary to
disfigure his nose on brick wall like
unto that of the late but unlamented
Belshazzar.

1898. In the intervening year, 1897,
however, Parker, Democrat, for justice,
had 69, ss9 plurality. The legislature is
strongly Republican.
The election returns since 1896 dis
close no political change in the follow
ing states that were carried by Bryan
for president: Alabama, Arkansas,
Colorado, Florida, Georgia, idaho,
Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Mon
tana, Nevada, North Carolina, South
Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah. In
Kansas, Bryan had y, 269 plurality fol
president, but i'm 1898 the Republicans
elected the governor by 1874 plurality
and they control the Legislature. In
Nebraska, his own state, Bryan's plu-
rality was 1886. In 1899 Holcomb,
Fusionist, was elected to the supreme
court by Is, lO7 plurality, but the Re-
publicans have a majority in the legis-
Iature. South Dakota gave Bryan only
1873 plurality, and Lee, Fusionist, for
governor, had $40 plurality in 1898,
The following year the Republican
candidates for the supreme court were
elected by 5000 plurality, and the Re-
publicans have AZ plurality in the leg
islature. All of the state officers, eX-
cept the governor, are Republicans. In
Washington, Bryan had II, 493 plurali-
ty, but the Republicans elected the
supreme judge in 1898 by S,ll3 plurali-
ty, and the legislature is heavily Re-
publican. Although Wyoming went
for Bryan by 5s3 plurality, it was car
ried for Republican governor in 1898
by 1894 plurality, and the Republicans
have 80 majority in the legislature.
There being 447 electoral votes, with
224 necessary to choice, the Republi-
cans could afford to lose of the states
they carried i'm 1896 the following, and
still have sufficient votes to elect:
Maryland, Kentucky, Delaware, West
Virginia, New Jersey, Connecticut.
Or, i'm lieu of these, the Republicans
could relinguish the votes of New York
and Minnesota, and still have enough
to win. All of this is on the assump-
ton that Bryan will carry all of the
states that he carried in 1896. AS a
matter of fact, he is very likely to lose
South Dakota, Washington and Wy
III
in Kansas.
