tne IOWlS during the summer mOnLnS
furnish the very highest quality of
protein food. AS substitute for this
in winter large amount of lean meat
must be furnished
The foregoing proof of the large
amount of protein in the egg shows
it's high value as food for mankind.
We presume there is no article of
diet so generally consumed through
out the world as are eggs of all kinds.
In addition to the thousand uses to
which eggs are put as food we may
add their use in the manufacture of
leather, in the weaving of textile work,
and in many other industries where
they are more or less used.
Another noticeable feature Is the
increase of the average egg yield
throughout the country compared with
the same ten years ago by the census,
but over and above all this is the
fact that the average price of eggs
throughout the country, notwithstand-
ing the enormous increased yield, has
almost doubled in every locality The
cost of meat and of every product of
living that we use has advanced and
this has naturally increased the value
OF price OF eggs Or poultry products
throughout the country. In addition
to this, the general use of eggs in
families, restaurants and hotels has
so largely increased in the last ten
years as to almost guarantee against
the possibility Of there ever being too
many eggs produced to supply the
country And even should the product
increase more than we can imagine,
there is almost an incalculable outlet
for same to the south American coun-
tries and the South Sea Islands, and
this will largely increase as the south
ern countries become more fully pop
ulated and our connection with them
has been established through a reg
ular line of steamers.
In addition to all this it has been
discovered that the product which can
be made from egs, milk and other
materials is the very best of food pro-
ducts to be used throughout the trop-
ical countries. A company now al
ready established in New York City
has made a thorough experiment of
this and they are now selling in large
quantities a product of this character
in the southern climates, and as it
becomes well known throughout the
tropical countries, it will be more gen.
orally used than is condensed milk.
All of these many uses for eggs keeps
down the surplus and in this way
helps to keep up to a paying valua-
ton the selling Price of eggs at all
times and during all seasons of the
year.-American Fancier.

The Use Of Eggs

1t is generally stated as safe COM
parison that six eggs are equal to one
pound of beef on the average, and
while man might, perhaps, thrive
better on a diet composed of one
pound of meat per day rather than of
six eggs, at the same time eggs may
be used with other ingredients so
that the six eggs would be of more
value as a food than the meat
We might well consider in the first
place the color of the shells of the
egg. Some being dark and some very
light, it is presumed by the naturalists
that the original color of the shell of
the egg of all fowls was of charac-
ter that conformed to the surround
ings where it was most likely to be
deposited for incubation. This origi-
nal or natural color was protection
to the future or the offspring of birds
and fowls of all kinds. This may be
taken as guide and the reason for
the different colors of the shell of
eggs laid by our several breeds or
varieties of domestic poultry.
Eggs are used in so many ways that
it would be scarcely possible to emu
merate them all. We will simply
state that eggs are especially rich in
protein. When considerable num-
Der of eggs, meat and fish are con-
sumed it is better to eat them with
more or less bread and potatoes. In
this way you provide what is known
at the present time as balanced or
proper ration.
The eg is composed of eleven parts
refuse or shell, thirty-two parts the
yolk or yellow of the egg, fifty-seven
parts of the white or albumen of the
egg. In the total makeup of the egg
there is siXty-five per cent of water
when the entire egg, shell and all, is
considered and seventy-three per cent
of water when the whole eatable por-
tion of the egg is considered.
The white contains eighty-six per
cent water and the yolk but forty
nine per cent water. The white
twelve per cent protein, two per cent
fat; the yolk fifteen per cent pro-
tein, thirty-three per cent fat This
shows conclusively the large per cent
of protein contained in the egg and
the great necessity of furnishing it
to the poultry during the winter
months, when there is so little green
food and no animal life at all for them
to pick at

Order of the Smiling Face
We've formed a new society
The Order of the Smiling Face.
An honored member you may be,
For every one may lhave a place.
The rules say you must never let
The corners of your mouth drop
down,
For by this method you may get
The habit of a sullxy frown.
If playmates tease you, let your eyes
A brave and merry twinkle show,
For if the angry tears arise
They're very apt to overflow.
If you must practice for an hour,
And Il it seems long, long while,
Remember not to pout and glover
But wear a bright and cheerful
smile.
The rules are simple, as you see,
Make up your mind to join today.
Put on smile-and you will be
An active member right away.

Beautiful Thoughts

A girl should be taught to detest
two things horoughly-idleness and
aimlessness. These two enemies have
given birth to ennui, which is pain.
IT she be child Of fortune, instruct
her, even more carefully than if she
were poor, to work in some definite
manner for pleasures own sake. More
than all, train her hands and stir her
brain with the constant assurance
that she will find her sweetest salts
faction in that which she is to ac-
complish in life.
The talent of success is nothing
more than doing what you can do well,
withouta thought of fame. If it comes
at all, it viii becometashrdluetao
at all 1t will come because, it is de-
served, not because it is ought after.
1t is very indisc,.eet end troublesome
ambition which cares so much about
fame, about what the world says of
us, as to be always looking in the
face of others for approval to be al
ways anxious about she effect Of what
we do or say, to be always shouting
to hear the echoes of our own voices
Elderly people look back upon the
friends, relatives and acquaintances of
thirty, forty or fifty years ago, and
say, There are no friends like old
friends" 1t is natural for them to
think this way, particularly when
most of the old friends areb uried;
but the fact is that there are friends
as true now as ever. The world is
progressing in every way, and men
and women are truer and better now
than ever before This is good
thought to consider during the declin-
ing years of life.
The happiness derived from doing
deeds of kindness is the happiest, the
purest an dthe most lasting of all hui
man enjoyments. The vilest sinner
breathing, if he has ever performed a
benevolent act in the course of his
life, knows this to be true. How
strange, then, that SO many thousands
should ruin health, fortune and repu-
tation in pursuit of pleasures that
turn to ashes in the end, while they
utterly neglect this source of enjoy
ment, accessible to all, and which not
only brightens life, but softens the
sting of death.
Be careful how you criticize the ef
forts of the children The clipped
wing never grows again. Make it a
matter of conscience never to mis-
lead the child, for he is a traveller
newly arrived from a strange country
Allow him as his world widens to
have opinions of his own; let him be
a personality, not mere echo. Have
faith in God for your sons and daugh-
ters. According to your faith so will
it be unto you.l Make your home the
center of attraction to your children;

Time For Christmas Shopping.

Christmas is coming! It's coming on
| the run, 1t will be here before you
know it, You have less than 80 days
| to prepare for Christmas. Every year
the suggestion is made TO Christmas
shoppers to shop early and avoid the
rush. Wise ones heed this advice.
All persons who have visited the
stores in past years just before Christ
mas know what a riot of shoppers
there is at that time. 1t is not only
difficult for purchasers to receive sat
isfactory attention from the clerks but
all persons connected with the great
retail establishments of the city are
worked to the point of exhaustion and
beyond
The remedy lies in the hands of the
shoppers A little forethought on their
part would do much to prevent Christ
mas from being an object of dread to
so many whose work consists in sup
plying the wants of the shopping pub
lie The great impelling motive to
early shopping should be regard for
the oyerwOrked clerks and delivery
boys, to whom the holiday trade is a
tremendous burden.
The spirit of Christmas time should
lead people others to make Christmas
purchases as early as possible. The
needlessly large army of late shoppers
is responsible for the bitter fatigue of
the salespeOple, which makes their
own wan countenances a distressing
sight on the day and evening before
Christmas.
So the early shopper becomes not
only a comfort to himself or herself,
but aids in lifting the awful burden of
others. Early shopping tends to make
the whole Christmas season happier.
NOw's the time to get busy and avoid
the rush.
