MISTAKES WITH EGGS.

Some of the most careful poultry
men are the ones who send stale eggs
to market. During the warm season
a visit to any store or market where
eggs are sold win convince the most
skeptical that the merchants have
great difficulty in securing strictly
fresh eggs. Purchase a few dozen
and take them home for examination,
and the result viii probably be that
some of them are unsuitable for use,
Now this condition Of the egg market
in summer Is one that has always ex-
listed, and is due to a lack of system
in managing If the hens are COM
PEELED to lay in the poultry house and
the eggs collected daily, there would
be less liability Of stale eggs finding
their way into the basket Of fresh
eggs; but when eggs are picked up
in the fence corners, in the horse
troughs, under the barn or from
other places than the poultry house,
the chances are always favorable to
mistakes, and If one bad egg is found
in "a thousand, the whole lot is then
injured in reputation to a certain ex-
tent and cannot be graded as "strict-
ly" fresh eggs. The eggs in market
are largely sold on confidence in
their quality, and no mistakes can be
allowed, as customers viii always be
suspicious Of the merchant or farmer
who allows bad egg to be sold by
him.

NIAGARA AND zAslBEsI.

Latter More stupendous, But For
mer's Proportions More Striking.
"A question which travellers often
ask each other in various parts Of the
world is: What is really the greatest
natural wonder on earth?' 1t is easy.
to answer now, says the Travel Mag
azine, since the stupendous falls Of
the zambesi River have been dis
coVehed.
David Livingstone called the main
fan the most wonderful sight ] had
visited in Africa And when one Inn
AGNES the spectacle Of one of the
worlds mightiest rivers, two miles
wide, falling sheer 400 feet, it is not
hard to agree with one of the greatest
travellers and missionaries that ever
lived.
Our own Niagara is only half a
mile wide and 1853 feet high, so that
it figures as mere cascade in COM
parison."
This is all very we'll, but Niagara
still leads In the impressiveness Of its
proportions. The zambesl Falls are
two miles wide, four times the width
OF Niagara. In order to preserve the
relative proportions OF the latter the
African falls should therefore be four
times It's height, or 682 feet.
Its real height Of 400 feet IS less
than three times that OF Niagara. This
changes its relative proportions de-
cidedly and not in way to increase
its impressiveness.

Der held by Senorita Duran, in iden-
tifying 1t with the winning ticket as
given on the list
Lawyer Mendez calmly proceeded:

prived of the prize, is our own be-
loved friend, Senorita Duran. The
beast, who tried to snatch the food
from his fellow is our host Of the

Senior Alfaro leaned forward, raised
his napkin to his mouth, opened his
lips as If to speak, but shook his
head and sank back without a word
into his chair, with the eyes of the
astonished company upon him.
The speaker barely glanced at the
man he was convicting, thenresumed:

pleasantness of legal proceeding by

to its rightful owner, senorita Duran,
the whole of the prize"
He handed the check and foun-
tain pen to the silent Senior Alfaro.
The Spaniard, as readily as IL a
friend had requested Of him a cigar
light, rested his arm on the table,
signed the check, and passed it with
bow to Senorita Duran.
Senior Mendez, having played his
part of judge and jury, prosecutor OF
the prisoner, and executioner of the
sentence, again sat with the social
court
No one knew what to say. The
disconnected guests began to remark
on the lateness of the hour and to
make their adieus.
Shortly after, when knocked at
Senorita Duran's door to congratu-
late her, I found her at the little all
tar, lighting many fresh candles be-
