The first clew pointing to the where
ahouts of Roy Mcnamara. the Iowa
College freshman who mysteriously
from Indianapolis.
Last night his father Rev. Mr.. Nc
Namara of Onawa, received a telegram
saying that a young man who gave the
rame of r. r. Mcnamara had applied
for a position in a drug store at In
dianapolis and had given the name OF
Mr. Montrose as reference. Roy Nc
Namara had worked for time in the
Montrose drug store at Sloan. Iowa,
and this fact makes his friends think
that r. 7. Mcnamara is the missing
student.
1t was believed in some quarters that
the young student had committed sui
eide or had been foully dealt with, but
his father has held tenaciously to the
idea that his son was living and refused
to permit a search to be made for the
Eody. He left this morning for Indian
apolis.

Mcnamara, who is said to have dis
appeared from college at Grinnell, Ia.
was yesterday given employment In the
Occidental pharmacy at the soda foun-
tain. He gave his name as Carl Nc
Namara and said he had recently been
connected with the Brightwood branch
of the Y. NJ. c. A. as an instructor in
the gymnasium He did not give his
address and left word at the store at
8 o'clock last night that he expected
to return to work in the morning.
Young Mcnamara could not be To-
Gated tonight and inquiry at the
Brightwood Y. M. c. A. failed to elicis
information concerning him, but as the
gymnasium is closed at night the sec.
rotary says it is possible that the
young man had been connected with
the department without the secretarys
knowledge.

toned, when he applied for a position

Preserving Eggs.
fCountrY Gentleman. ]

OF course the most satisfactory way
to keep eggs is in cold storage: if you
have not facilities for that the best
thing to do is to pack them in dry salt
or to lime them. There are many for
mulas for making lime solution. One
of the best plans is TO pack in jars. Care
should be taken to select receptacle
from which the eggs can draw nothing;
hence glass jars or stone crooks are
preferable Six gallon glass jars will
hold twenty dozen eggs. Slack about a
peck of lime; to this add six pailfuls of
water and three quarts of salt. This
should be dissolved and when settled is
fit for use. Pour the thin lime water
into the jars, cover them with cloth,
and on this spread n coating of the
thicker lime water. The solution must
stand in the jars 50 as to cover the
eggs. A peck of lime will be enough to
preserve about 100 dozen eggs. A cor.
respondent, Mr.. A. A. Kelley. complains
tnat he las never been .hle Il, hee }.
eggs satisfactorily in brine or salt and
lime, the yelks becoming hard and the
eggs useless. Packed in dry salt he
says, $50 that they do not touch, they
will keep without apparent change for
months. He adds that our consul at
Capetown reports the following meth
cd of preserving eggs as successful in
South ifric.: An ur,e of iod ate Of
calcium was put into a gallon of water
and stirred. The eggs were dipped in
this solution, then allowed to dry.
They showed no coating or discolora-
ION, ard ke,t sweet for SIX months
The consul says further that, if placed
in lime and salt of equal proportions,
the eggs can be kept for over year.
We should be inclined ourselves TO try
the dry salt method.
