Luxury for Epicures That is on the
English Market.

A fine palate and a full pocket are
necessary if one is prepared to pay Is
Cd apiece for a dozen eggs each no
bigger than the egg of rock.
Yet this was the price paid by a
wealthy west end epicure for the first
consignment of plovers' eggs, the sea
son for which is now in full swing.
Even this price does not create a
record, for up to the present season a
certain gentleman has, for several
years, bought the first eggs for half a
guinea each
In the markets and west end poul.
try shops dozens OF the little olive
hued, black-splashed eggs may be
seen exposed for sale, mostly in tiny
baskets Of moss, made to represent
nests.
Why they should be thus exhibited
is a mystery, since the plover never
builds nest for its eggs, but lays
them Unfortunately in any natural
hole or depression such as a furrow
or the hocfpr.nt of horse or COW.
According TO one salesman who was
seen on Saturday. the plovers' egg
business is not popular at the markets
owing to the risks Of the eggs turn.
ing out bad as the plovers are in the
habit Of disregarding their eggs, thus
allowing the hot sun to work its will
with them.
The market price Of the eggs on Sat
urday was IS a dozen. having dropped
from els dozen since the last week of
lent. The lowest price reached in any
season Is generally about Cd apiece
