to the Department of Agriculture for
compiling in it's Official literature the
various and the bes; ways Of treating
eggs that are pc: away during the
summer months. when they are plenti.
ful and cheap. CT twenty German
methods OF preserving eggs the three
which proved the most effective are
coating the egg with vaseline, pre-.
serving them In lime water and pre-.
serving them in water glass. There
is drawback TO the water glass
method the shell easily bursts in
boiling water. This, however, may
be prevented by piercing the shell
with a strong needle. This objection
having been conceded, the water gla ass
method heads the list, a. vanishing
the eggs with vaseline takes a greai
deal Of time, aud treating them with
lime water is apt to give them a dis.
agreeable odor. In most packed egg
the yolk, sooner or later, begins tt
settle on one side and the egg at once
begins 20 depreclate. THIS does not
happen when water glass is used aud
the eggs retain a surprising fresh.

Vice Versa skirts and EodIces.

An artistic maker of frocks bewails
the fact that the gathered skirt
is gathered in the back and
at the sides while the front is left
perfectly plain; the bodice on the
other hand is full and slightly pouched
in front, but plain and close fitting at
the back The artistic maker Of frocks
says that this is contrary to all rules
of grace and beauty, as the fuiness of
the skirt should be, as least in appear
ance, continued on the bodice, and
vice.versa.

velvet sewn with steel or Jet beads in
an elaborate pattern and with a fringe
of the beads falling in front This
fringe may be any length desired, but
is always V-shaped, and usually about
eight inches deep in the center, gra l.
mating in length to the sides. Collars
made in similar style are worn with
these pirdles.

the dominance of the overskirt is un-
disputed, it is not yet drsped, unless
the draperies are kept very low.

also visiting here and the ladies decided
TO overhaul the contents OF an old
chest that had been In the family near
Iva century and which was filed with
documents and letters that have been
accommodating for many years. There
were old deeds and other legal papers
bearing dates running back to 1910, but
one OF the most interesting products OF
the search was q letter written by an
uncle of the ladies to his father their
grandfather. The writer was Charles
Henry Fitch, who went to California
among the first Of that great host OF
pioneers that flocked thither after the
cession OF that region by the. treaty
with Mexico and the discovery OF gold.
The letter was very voluminous and
was made UP in the form OF little
book. with its pages numbered and
with an index to aid the reader in read
lily referring to any topic treated in the
communication. 1t told OF the over
land journey, described the conditions
in the strange new country in which
the writer was located, discussed the
politics of the day and other questions
and was evidently the product of many
hours of labor. by which the writer
warded off homesickness in indicting
his experiences and reflections for the
benefit of those in the old home in the
states.
The discovery OF this letter alone
would have been sufficient reward for
the search, but more surprising dis
covery was that which was made when
from between the leaves of the. little
book there fell a bank draft for $500,
which the young man had evidently re-
mitted to his father along with the let-
ter. The draft was in favor of the
father, Charles B. Fitch. and had been
drawn by bank at Columbia. Cal.
upon New York bank. The date II
bore was in the early fifties.
We should be glad if we could finish
the story by telling how the draft had
been forwarded to New York for col
lection and upon presentation there had
been duly honored by the bank upon
which it had been drawn. Truth. how
ever, compels the statement that the
finders attach little value to the pa
per except as precious family relic
and never expect to realize any finan-
cial benefits from the discovery. 1t is
quite probable that a duplicate draft
was issued and paid many years ago
but in any case the one now found has
doubtless been outlawed by the lapse OF
time and is worthless except as a
curiosity.

+ It is singular fact that the senti-

cities. after prominent national or local
persons, has apparently never entered
the minds of those in charge of the

A bet was made here the other day
on the result of the election in Iowa
which is a repetition Of bet the demo-
cratic supporter lost four years ago. A
prominent republican was approached
by a democrat from whom he had won
a hat in 1896, who recalled the bet and
said that he wanted TO renew 1t for this
year. The republican remembered hav-
ing Won the hat but could not recall
the terms. He said, however, that he
knew the republicans would make gains
this year over every proposition which
was good then. SO he closed the deal.
The democrat was quite elated that he
had thus secured bet on the proposi-
tion that Iowa would give more than
10000 majority for Mckinley while the
republican feels sure that he will have
another hat coming after the election
