How to Tell an Eggs Age.

The age Of an egg is now discovered
by immersing it in a solution of salt
containing about eight ounces to the
pint When the salt has thoroughly
dissolved, the egg to be tested is
dropped gently into the glass contain
ing the solution. If the egg is only one
day old, it sinks Immediately to the
bottom; if three days old, it sinks just
below the surface only, and from five
days and upward it floats.

How to Mend Table Linen.

Always do this before sending it to
wash: Provide yourself with flourish
ing cotton in different sizes, according
to the fineness or coarseness Of your
linen. Paste a piece of stiff paper over
the hole on the right side and then darn
very carefully with the dourishing
thread on the wrong. The darn should
reach half an inch beyond the tear on
all sides, and the crossing must be
very neatly and accurately done. It is
really more satisfactory to mend these
places before they reach the hole stage
and takes far less time.

splendid presentation of Richard

The characters were FALL well taken,
the costumes rich and historically ac-
curate, the sscenery adequate, and
taken all ins all the performance was
entirely satisfactory from every stand
point. At the start the audience was
cold and unresponsiye, as Kenosha au-

progressed 1t warmed up sand the com

while his whole course has probably
not been as aggressive as some of
his colleagues, yet he has been firm
in his convictions, conservative III
his actions and rue to his party and
PEOPLE He is now on the shady
side of life. and we are not in favor
of kicking him out of office, just

as being most gratifyingly pleased at the
sanitary condition of the house and the
healhtful and we'll nourishcd appearance
of the patients. There was also an in
spection Of the lawn and the farm and
with these the board was also pleased.
Theer was a special examination of the
boilers and these were found to be in just
as good condition as they could possibly
be considering the strain that is put upon
the boilers to do the work necessary for
the heating and lighting of the hospital
The executive committee met after the
adjournment of the board and did their
usual routine work of examining and
auditing accounts.
In conversation with various members
of the board after adjournment these ex-
pressed themselves as being highly
pleased with the entire management of
the hospital and the condition in which
everything was found.
1t was said by one of the members that
arrangements were made to transfer
thirty-five female patients from the wing
they now occupy and place them in
another portion of the building This
with some other changes suggested by
Or. Mckee it is believed will give some
additional room at the hospital.
