EGG BEARS LOVE ROMANCE.

Joplin, Moan interstate romance,
Matched of an egg shipped from Joplin
to Winsted. Conn, is disclosed in a
dispatch announcing that Emil Laurit-
zon OF Winsted had observed the ad-
dress Of Miss Louise Adcock of Jop-
lin on an egg from case he was I'M
packing; that through this incident a
correspondence had begun, and later
had terminated In marriage engage
ment and preparations for a trip TO
Joplin.
There are no Adcocks living in Jop-
lin. No one named Louise Adcock
has been employed In Joplin commits
sion houses, and the only tangible
clew that might throw light on the
Connecticut egg story comes through
the police department. Capt Tom
Lawson recalls that a woman named
Louise Adcock ran huckster wagon
in the region round about Joplin about
ten years ago
The presumption here is that Louise
Adcock wrote her name and address
on dominicker egg which was DIES.
tined for cold storage, and that the
ancient egg has just reached Winsted
after ten years.

morning at breakfast will also help the
beauty work along. Don't neglect these
steps.
