SHORTAGE OF COAL.

Be Filled.
The coal dealers are experiencing a
shortage. Not of coal nor customers but
of teams and wagons.
Yesterday one firm received 116 orders
for coal that could not be filed on ac-
count of the scarcity of wagons. This
morning the same firm secured II more
Wag ons and teams in addition to their
regular ones and still can not fill all the
orders they receive. Many people let
their supply of coal run low thinking
that the cold weather was over. The re-
cent snow and cold has necessitated
more fuel.

Scientific Boiling OF EGGS.

No housekeeping tradition dies SO
hard in the face Of scientific cooking
school enlightenment as that which
relates to the boiling OF eggs. A soft
boiled egg, according to nine cooks
out Of ten, is put on in boiling water
and allowed to remain from two to
two and q half minutes. Eggs in
tended to be hard boil9d also 60 in
boiling water. and STAY from ten to
fifteen minutes. The new reading
has changed all this. The modern
cooking teacher says that when the
water is allowed to boil the egg is
tough, horny, and indigestible. To
cook cggs soft. she further explains,
they must he put in cold water, which
is brought to temperature Of 1I5
degrees Fahrenheit, and allowed to
stand in this water from six to eight
minutes. For hard-boiled eggs, put
in cold water. bring to 175 degree
Fahrenheit, then set back from the
fire and keep hot forty-five minutes.
Cooked in this way the albumen is re-
duced to a jelly-like substance, easily
digested, and the yolks are dry and
mealy.-Ncw York Post.

SONG OE The SHOVEL

The friends / have arc deserving friends,
Add I serve them we'll ween,
The hands that hold me are honest hands
Be they ever so gnar,ed and lean;
Oh, birth and position are naught to me
If proud, they must earn my scorn-
For set them free. under Gods decree,
When the world was newly born.
A-swisb, a-swsh-'tis the song sing ,,
With a truer tone than the trumpet
ring. 49,,
Or the ROLL of drum, or the shrill Of fife
A-swish, a.swish,-- --'tis tale OF tlte.
I bring to the peasant his homely food,
To the prince his viandS and VINE,
The clittering stone and the saffron gold
I wrest from the gludging mne;
But, little I care for these tawdry things,
And my kindliest gift to toll
Is the JOY that wings and the health that
springs
From the grasp OF the grateful soil.
A.swish, a-swish-'tis the song sing
With a truer tone than the trumpet's
ring, -, 80.
Or the roll of drum, OF the shrill Of fife
A-swish, a-swish,- It's tale OF Life.
o. we'll for the world that my husky voice
Grows louder from day to day;
o i'll for the kingdom that melts me down
To boom in the deadly fray;
And woe to the ruler VINO hears me groan
Meath burden of grievous wrong,
For often, alone, hare l wrecked throne
With the shrek OF my angry song!
A-swish, a.swish-'tis the song I sing
With a truer tone than the trumpet's
ring,
Or the roll of drum. or the shrill of fife
A-swish, a-swish,-'tis a tale of Life.

Dining-Room Suggestions.

All the dish gravy oI juices that
drain from the roasts should be saved
and added to the meat sauces and soup
stocks.
The tablecioth and napkins must
always be daintily fresh and white or
the whole effect Of q well-arranged
table will be spoiled.
The children's table manners should
be carefully watched, and their train
ing in this respect cannot be begun
too early.
Small kindnesses and courtesies
should never be ignored, especially at
the family table.
Raspberry stains may be removed
from table linen by gently washing
in lukewarm water to which q little
ammonia has been added.
Nearly all stains may be removed
from wash fabrics by dipping in boil
ing water or pouring the boiling water
on the spot before putting in the suds.
An attractive novelty in napery is
pure white luncheon cloth Of round
thread damask, which, when skillfully
laundered, resembles piece Of heavy
satin. The white hem is topped by
three rows Of Mexican drawn-wOrk,
and those in turn by two more rows
of the same, which, lying on the table
and showing the polished wood be-
meath, makes very handsome border.
