man reached across the table and, cast
ing an unfriendly glance at the SEN

remaining contents in his possession.
Then, arising and calling the head
waiter to him, he handed him his nap

was plainly audible said

FREAK EGGS,

"Oh, quit your knockingw exclaimed
the landlady to a boarder who had the
audacity to kick against making a
whole meal on one egg and a piece Of
toast. Don't you know one egg is
equal to pound Of meat?"
But he had been there before.
with lightning rapidity he drew his
pocket cyclopedla and squelched her
(mlrablle dlctW with the contents Of an
egg.
Here Is his annihilating argument:
An egg contains 73 per cent water. l3
protein, 10 fat and 100 fuel producer.
while sirloin contains O1 per cent wa.
ter, 10 protein, 10 fat and l,130 heat
producer.
Now, II au egg does not contain a
full fedged sirloin 1t may contain
things not quite 80 nice.

er animals. The oviduct or egg passage
opens into the intestine.
Occasionally an Overcurious round
worm wlggles up into the egg factory
to investigate and gets caught in the
albumen that has just incased yolk.
Travelling down, the shell is formed,
and when a customer cracks such an
egg there is something doing for the
man that sold the egg. This is the
worm the early bird misses, but some
eager reporter finds it, and hence the
stories Of eggs containing snakes and
hens Matching sea serpents.
A blood clot in an egg is not the
germ.
That comes from hemorrhage in the
egg cluster or oviduct and Is the result
Of n too stimulating meat ration or egg
force.
After three days exposure to 103 de-
grees Of heat you see the germ.
1t looks like big bloody bug.
Sometimes a finished egg is detained
for time in the hen, and the bodily

heat develops the germ or makes the
egg stale.
Fortunately for the poultryman, this
doesn't happen often.
Eggs without shells, finished eggs
without yolks and yolks without white
and shell are common.
They indicate lack of egg material
or inflammation Of ovary or oviduct.
Pigeon sized eggs without yolks do
not indicate, as some suppose, that the
hen has finished her clutch, but infiam-
nation.
Sometimes In the effort to expel this
diminutive egg abnormal contractions
force it back up the oviduct
1t is there caught in the albumen Of
a descending yolk, shell is formed,
and we have an egg within an egg.
Two yolks, bursting capsules of the
oviduct at once, descend the oviduct to-
gether, are included in the same shell,
and thus comes the double yolk egg,
which matches large individual chicks,
twins or monstroslties. e.
Cholera, diphtheria, tuberculosis and
typhoid bacilli have been found in
eggs, the last being carried to hens
nest on her feet and absorbed by the
shell.
In cooking heat kills these germs,
while those who take eggs raw in egg
nog claim the hot stuff used in the bev-
erage also annihilates all animals.
That surely is true. Better watch
out. 1t will annihilate you too.

man, working In varlousplace as miner
and also teamster. Going to Oroville,
he entered store as porter, then be-
came a clerk and finally rose to the
position of part proprietor. His busi-
ness flourished and In time became
worth half a million a year. Mean
while Mr.. Perkins was interested IN
many outside ventures, including min.
ing, numbering and sheep and cattle
ranches. With others he established
the Bank Of Butte and encountered the
trials that afflicted 80 many business
men in the years following the war.
In 1872 he settled In San Francisco,
becoming n member of q small firm
that has since grown to be the Pacific
Coast Steamship company, possessing
a feet Of steamers which ply from
Alaska to Mexico.
Mr.. Perkins has always been a
strong Republican and first voted for
President Lincoln. In 1869 he was
elected to the state senate of Califor-
MIA from Butte county and returned
in 1873 to fill part Of term. He re-
ceived the Republican nomination for
governor of his adopted state in 1879
and was elected over three other can
didates.

Mackay helped along the work Of the
suffragists recently by opening her ele-
