How chlna Preserves Frssh Eggs.

While waiting for a cabinet official
with whom I had an appointment, I
CHANGED upon man just returned from
China. In the course of our CONVEX
sation the price of eggs and the diff
Guilty of keeping them fresh was dis
cussed. lamented that it was almost
impossible TO obtain new laid egg.
He told how, when travelling in China,
the American consul called his atten
lion to the fact that the Chinese had
centuries ago solved this problem in a
more effective way than has ever been
done by modern cold storage ware
house systems. Il happened that he
had had no opportunity to test the
Chinese method until he was leaving
the country, when he was presented
with fresh. laid eggs incased in spheri-
cal mud pies. He brought home these
packages along with other souvenirs,
and kept them until "fresh" eggs
scared to eighty cents a dozen; then he
opened his mud pies, and imagine his
surprise to dnd the eggs in first class
condition.
Later" he said, 81 tried the ex
pertinent myself; buried my eggs deep
in.mud and formed it into cakes around
them, allowing the pie to dry out.
Ihe result was the same-when theg
were opened they were perfectly fresh. y

better understood and appreciated.
 "One week later we were again engaged in fierce conflict. On entering the field my comrade was pale, and said to me: Brother, I feel that tomorrow you'll have another man walking at your right. His voice was firm but low and full of feeling, though no fear caused it to quaver. In vain I tried to cheer him up. See how fortunate we were to escape without harm in the battle of last week. I ex- plained. 'Ahn he answered calmly, but there were others-hundreds of them who fell. It is as much our duty to die as it is the other mans. Why should we congratulate ourselves. on living when so many of our comrades had to perish If so many thousands of men must die well, why should not I be one of themr
 But we must all pray for life,' I in sisted. There is home. there are father and mother and other dear ones we wish to see again. we have so much to live for-oh, so much there is in life for us you and l..
 ' And for all the other boys-be they in blue or gray said my eomrade.
 Well in this mood we stood side by side. guns ready, hearts almost still from the intenseness of the hour. I glanced at my comrade, his eyes shone with unusual brilliance, his cheek was the color of ashes. My duty as well as another's,' heard him say just the mo- ment before the order rang out. Fire P'
 'In the hours that followed all thought of companions was driven from the mind. Like infuriated demons we fired and re- ceived fire. Slaughter was everywhere The ground under our feet was red with warm life blood. I was blinded to every thing about me. The very sun seemed to shed blackness. The roar of the cannon, the cries of the wounded and dying-oh, my children, never will l forget theml As the night set In the battle was de cided. The boys in blue had won the victory. Then I began to look for my comrade. He was nowhere to be seen. l walked over the field. Soon I came upon him, lying face turned to the stars, a smile on his white face. My duty as well as anothers went through my mind. And he had performed his part of the sacrifice, and perhaps another man lived through his death.
 Grandpapas voice sank low, and tears gllstened on his eyelashes He paused in winding a wreath, pressing white rose against his breast That comrade in war was by beloved brother James," he said softly. And his grave is unknown. | Among the many lying in unmarked | graves in our Military Cemetery a milo from our town lies that dear boy who. q short hour before his death, declared that 1t was his duty as well as anothers to | die for his country"
 Instantly Willie and Mabel were al Grandpapa's side, their arms twined low ingly about his neck. Forgive me, Grand papa" whispered Mabel. 'I never knew -what-wnat-lt really meant to-

 "Oh, yes; they'll get strong again soon. We've had siege of illness and bad luck this spring. My husband was out of work all winter, and just as he secured a good job we took sick, and-and-our precious baby was taken from us.'
 thought passed through Percy's mind "ls your baby buried out here in Central Cemetery?" he asked. naming the ceme- tery that he and Mercy were going to visit that morning, and which was about half mile from the cottage of these poor people.
 Yes, 1t is lying there-at rest" The poor heartbroken mother sighed. And this Is Decoration Day. You see those wild flowers in the pitcher on the table? Well, my children went out early this morning and picked them from the road side. They had hard search for such handful of poor little wild blossoms But we all wanted to put some sort of sweet remembrance on the baby's grave Freddy and his sisters will take the flowers to the grave this morning.
 At this minute Freddy returned with two cracked china cups of water, which he politely handed to Percy and Mercy. After drinking, Percy said: Were ofr to the cemetery now, and If you'll permit your children to go along with us we'll

 And in this loving position. children's arms about the old form of Grandpapa, who in turn had his arms about them, the children's mother came, saying sweetly; Why, what a lot of lovely flowers for tomorrowl I do hope we will have a beautiful day for decorating the graves of our beloved dead"

sTF r WIS the evening before Decoration H Day, and Willie and Mabel were in the rose garden cutting roses to
 weave into wreaths for use on the
 morrow. Near to the town in which they lived was Military Cemetery, and it was the custom of the townspeople to lay floral tributes on the soldiers graves every Decoration Day. And among those most interested In thus showing their respect and love for the men who had fought and died for their country was old Mir. Grey, Wille's and Mabels grand father Indeed, it was Grandpapa Grey who had worked so diligently all spring in the flower garden in order that there might be an abundance of flowers for the annual occasion In which he was so deeply interested.
 .'YouH be able to cut two bushe baskets full of flowers" he said to Willie and Mabel on the evening before Decoration Day Don't spare a rose, nor q pink, nor any kind of blossom that will add to the beauty of the floral pieces. I'll assist in weaving the wreaths and diamonds and crosses"
 Willie and Mabel took the scissors and hastened to the garden to gather the bushel- el-baskets full of flowers. After they had worked a little while Willie grew tired of the task set him and declared that he thought it a foolish custom to make such d fuss oyer the dead soldiers And it's a pity Grandpapa will work so hard to get garden full of fine flowers just to have them all cut down for Decoration Day. If had worked as he has done since the first day of spring I'd not give up the results of my toll you may be sure"
 Well, there are many other ways the flowers might ne used" said Mabel. Next Friday is my birthday. and tbere'll not be a flower left to decorate the rooms and tables for my party It's always so; Grandpapa managed to have the finest ffower-garden in town, and just as it begins to look beautiful

And do so right away" Then he waited a minute before addressing the other three storks but one at a time they were requested to bring him baby sister. This done, Teddy turned to his nurse and called out. Pm ready to go home, Nursie P
 "Ah, such kid Y Teddy heard his nurse say to the park policeman. "He don't even like monkeys What'd you think of that? Amt quite right, chi" And nurse touched her forehead signifi- cantly. The park policeman laughed and shook his head: "The folks what likes sport don't never tire of the monkeys. It's a queer kid what takes to birds. Birds are dull and unsociable and eye you in such an impudent way" Then, another call from Teddy, and nurse smiled her good-by to the policeman, and took her charge home.
 Teddy went directly to his nursery and had his afternoon nap. In the evening when he had his supper with the nurse he said;HI want to see mamma before I go to knight May I?''
 "BlI eild-I forgot to tell him." said/ Why, Master Teddy, yox esrother and sister,
