How to Tell Fresh Eggs.

At this season of the year when eggs
are so popular an article of food it is
well to know how to test an egg to de-
termine whether the statement, strict
ly fresh" may be depended upon. 4
writer in What to Eat" gives some
general suggestions on the subject that
are worth bearing in mind. He says
that new laid egg placed in a vessel
of brine. made in the proportion of two
ounces of salt to one pint of water,
will at once sink to the bottom. An
egg one day old VIII sink below the
surface, but not to the bottom, while
one three days old will swim just i'm
mersed in the liquid. If more than
three days old the egg will float on The
surface, the amount of the she'll eX-
posed increasing with age. If two
weeks old, only a little of the shell
will dip in the liquid. A pail of any
kind of water, however, affords a CON-
venient medium for testing eggs. A
real fresh egg will sink; one that is not
so fresh will topple around, apparently
standing on its end; one that is spoiled
will float. The shell of resi- egg looks
dull and porous, while that of an old
egg appears thin and shiny. When
shaken, a stale egg will rattle in the

LincoIn's Rules.

On one occasion President Lincoln on
entering the telegraph office of the war
department, writes Mr.. Bates in Lin
coin in the Telegraph Office" was
heard to remark to Secretary Seward,
by jings, governor, we are here at
last!" Turning to him in a reproving
manner Mr.. Seward said, Mr.. Presi-
dent, where did you learn that inelegant
expression?" Without replying to the
secretary, Lincoln addressed the tele-
graph operators, saying:
Young gentlemen, excuse me for
swearing before you. BY jings' is
swearing, for my good old mother
taught me that anything that had a
by before it was swearing"
One day Secretary Seward, who was
not renowned as a joker, said he had
been told that a short time before on
d street crossing Lincoln had been
seen to turn out in the mud to give
colored woman a chance to pass.
Yes" said Lincoln, 1T has been a
rule of my life that if people would
not turn out for me L would turn out
for them. Then you avoid collisions"

THE NEW AGE.

When navies are forgotten
And fleets are useless things,
When the dove shall warm her bosom
Beneath the eagles wing.
When memory of battles
At last is strange and old,
When nations have one banner
And creeds have found one fold.
When the hand that sprinkles midnight
With it's powdered drift of suns
Has hushed this tiny tumult
OF sects and swords and guns.
Then hates last note of discord
In all Gods works shall cease,
In the conquest which is service,
In the victory which is peace!

Rudyard Kipling concluded his recent
address to the students of McGill uni
versity with an attack on ''smartness."
He said:
Whenever and wherever you find one
of your dear little playmates showing
signs of smartness in his work, his talk
or his play, take him tenderly by the
hand, by both hands, by the back of the
neck, if necessary, and lovingly. playful
ly, but firmly lead him to a knowledge
of higher and more interesting things"
Afterward Mr.. Kipling told a story
about a smart man.
This man." he said owned a dry
goods store, and one day. to his great
disgust, he heard a new clerk say to a
lady:
Ono. madam; we have not had any

with a fierce glance at the clerk the
smart employer rushed up to the lady
and said:
We have plenty in reserve, ma'am;
plenty upstairs.
Lady and clerk looked dazed, and aft

FOR YOU.

Shall you complain, who feed the world
Who clothe the world, who house the
world;
Shall you complain, who are the world
Of what the world may do?
AS from this hour you show your
power,
The world must follow you
The worlds life lies in your right hand,
Your strong right hand, your skilled
right hand,
You hold the whole world in your hand,
See to it what you do!
Or dark or light or wrong or right
The world is made by you.
Then rise as you never rose before
Or hoped before or dared before
And show as was never shown before
The power that lies in you.
Unite as one, see justice done.
Believe and dare and do!
Charlotte Perkins Gilman.

Patience is the truest sign of courage.
Ask old soldiers who have seen real
war, and they will tell you that the
bravest men, the men who endured
best. not in mere fighting, but in stand
ing still for hours to be moved down by
cannon shot. who were most cheerful
and patient in shipwreck, and starva-
tion and defeat-all things ten times
worse than nightingale old soldiers,
say, and they will tell you that men
who showed best in such miseries were
generally the stillest and meekest men
in the whole regiment. That is true for
titude That is Christ's image-the
meekest of men, the bravest, too

Wedding Gowns Nowadays.

There was time, not long ago. when
no girl thought she was really mar

altar in the stiffest, heaviest white sat
In that she could procure 1t was ugly
1t was unbecoming. Every time she
wore it afterward people smiled and
hummed the wedding march But II
was bridal and she had to have it.
Nowadays when satin is used it is the
softest, loveliest chiffon-weight that
Grapes and falls in beautiful, artistic
folds. But oftener still crepe de chine
and chiffon cloth and messaline are
chosen in preference to satin. Again,
when expense has to be considered,
very lovely gowns are made of mu1ls
and lingerie materials, exquisitely fine
in quality and workmanship.
For church weddings the gown al
ways has a train. Generally it lies
about yard on the floor, though some
times it is longer. For house weddings
there is no fixed rule and a bride may
consult her own preferences as to
length.

Birds of a Feather.

Last night as 1 was making the usual
breakaway dash for the train to carry
me to my suburban home, 1 crossed
tangents with two fat men trying to
pass each other in a street car door
After a great deal of squeezing, the
fat passenger who wanted to alight
got past the fat passenger who desired
to ride further When the first fat
man turned to the passengers and said,
without a smile:
My, but that man was fat!'
He seemed lost in wonderment at the
laugh which followed.
