vided his days into mornings for work,
afternoons for fishing and rambling
through the woods and gay little chats
with Miss Penelope and her father
after supper.
Miss Penelope forgot the shyness for
which she was noted and talked of the
things she had read and dreamed
about for years as If she had actually
lived them. Returning from school ten
years before, she had not found the
average youth Of the community con-
genial. Her natural timidity and ret
tcence had been mistaken for hauteur.
and not one Of the country SWANS had
possessed the courage to ask her to 60

yearly ice cream festival. $780,.
She had tended her flower garden, d.
rected the management of her fathers
farm and for amusement had lived in
a world Of books and magazines. The
only love Of her life was worship Of

Congress and tho Frock Coat.


Congress Is eliminating the frock
coat habit. More than half the men,
bers Of the new congress have shown
their disapproval Of the time honored
costume by appearing on the floor Of
the house in the regulation business
suit Of tweed, says the Washington
Star. Red and lavender neckties can
poll a larger vote than the somber
black string tie, and old members loyal
to the frock coat and its accessories
are discussing with despair the future
of congressional tan shoes. Fear ex.
pressed by members Of the house for
the doom Of the frock coat has al
ready disturbed the equanimity Of the
senate by the appearance OF q couple
OF belligerents In the ranks Of this

EGGS IN new STYLE.

Australians Devise Unique Method 60
Preserve Hen Product. -
Australians have devised a scheme
to turn fresh laid eggs to powder for
preserving and shipping purposes. says
an Ottawa special dispatch to the Chi
cago Record Herald. H.
In a recent report the trade commits
sioner for Canada in Australia makes
special reference to a process for des-
locating eggs now being carried out
there for which high claims are made
and which the commissioner thus de-
scribes: u-
Desiccated eggs are not substitutes
for eggs, but newly laid eggs, and are
treated by a process by which only
the shell and water contents of the
egg are removed and the whole sub
stance Of the egg, yolk and albumen,
converted into powder. @g
It is claimed to have been proved
that this powder will keep for years
and, only requires the addition Of milk
or water, when the powdered eggs will
reconstitute and be ready for use for
any purpose just the same as newly
laid egg. The powder is rich and at
tractive looking and is reported by the
government analysts Of New South
Wales and Victoria to contain no
chemical preservative. No part Of the
egg except the water has been re-
moved in the process.

abruptly.
She sat still and white, the situation
being one that she had never met with
or dreamed Of meeting.
ITO me you are Esther. I could love
you the same way" he said quietly.
Miss Penelope rose, frightened and
childlike, a culver Of pain trembling
on her lips.
'Mr. Holmes, I have admired you.

could to keep you from finding the
dullness of our life tedious. Perhaps

gasped.
"A-a-what?'' he asked blanlkly.
"A married man." she said brokenly,
two tears trickling down her cheeks.

Miss Penelope still stood, nervous

He took her hand and, STOPPING,
pressed his lips to it. II kept the rose,"
he said insinuatingly.
She looked down upon his blond
head, and her own beloved Queen
