table informal, dance given for the
purpose of raising funds for defrayine
the expense of maintaining a training
table for the varsity football team, re-
suited in the raising of fund Of be-

One of the most interesting an
nuoncements ever made in the his
tory of the automobile industry came
yesterday from the EMF company of
Detroit, Mich, makers of the E-M-b
$50" and Flanders go" automobiles,
when news reached here of a big reduc-
ton in the price of these machines. The
"50'' has been cut from s1.250 to $1,000
and the go" from $3.50 to 500.
Decided drops in the cost Of raw ma
terials, together with the EMF com-
pany's system of quantity production,
are said to be responsible for the cut
in the prices of these two machines. So
far reaching and effective is the drop
in the price of materials. says the
the company will enjoy the same mar
gin of profit as heretofore.
The EMF company manufactures it's
cars from the foundation up. The organ
ization is one of the largest in the
country. 1t has its own forging plant,
foundries. stamping plant, brass plant
and body peant. So complete is the
company's organization and manufac-
turing facilities that there is not a
part of the company's two machines
that is not manufactured under its
own roof. With the improvements In
manufacturing facilities that have been
added during the last year and the
recent drop in the cost of materials the
concern states that by placing the sell
ing price Of the EMF at $1,000 the
company will enjoy the same margin
of profit which prevailed when the ma
chine sold for s1,250.
The company is backed by the Morgan
interests and the reduction in price
means that a vigorous effort is to be
made to broaden the market.
Quantity production is the secret OF
the whole proposition, say the company
officials, but another reason for the
drop in price is said to be due to the
fact that the EMF company has re-
Trained from putting out radically
different models of machines every
year. Changes, the company says, have
been made gradually and the car as ii
is today is to great extent the same
machine that 1T was two years ago
1t has several refinements, admit mem
bers of the EMF company, but these
have taken place only in instances
where service showed weaknesses

Weaver says that the drop in the price

cars will boost the sales of these ma

10 Cock EGGS pronerTY.

People often say; "Oh. just cook
me al egg; that is the easiest;' but
an egg is just as difficult to cook
properly IS roast or steak True,
the preparing of meats Is a more
elaborate process and takes longer,
but It is q well-known fact that very
few things are easy to do Ii they
are done properly. In other words,
you cannot fix an egg in careless,
haphazard fashion any more than
anything else, and just because it is
simply even when most care is taxi
en- is the very reason that there is
no excuse for doing other than we'll
For instance, says the Philadelphia
Press, most people will soft-boil an
egg by dropping 1t into boiling water
for about three minutes. but a mo-
nient's thought win assure anyone
that II an egg is dropped into boil
ing water, the outer edge Of the
white part must instantly harden,
and thus keep the heat from acting
evenly throughout the whole egg.
So, II instead, 1t is put into the cold
or luke-warm water and this then
brought to a boil and left for three
minutes, there will be no danger of
the inside being still soft and watery.
In fact, most people seem to prefer
to have the egg boiled about four
minutes, thus insuring fair con-
sistency; the watery, soft-tol!ed egg
being desired only for invalids.
In frying an egg, the same thing Is
true In principle; here, though, It is
necessary to put the egg into the
very hot pan to get a solid coating on
the bottom. The pan should then be
moved 10 cooler part of the stove
where it will not go so fast. and
with a knife make little openings in
the firm bottom TO allow the soft up
per layer OF the white to run through.
As soon as all the white becomes
Opaque, put cover over the pan. and
let It cook slowly until the white Is
well CONCEALED. In this way the egg

so many people dislike.

WEATHER AND THE COMET.

SO long as the extreme limitations

they do now, almost any one is at
liberty to speculate on what effect
Halley's comet may have on our
sphere, and with none to gainsay
him. Why may rot midsummer
weather In March and no rainfall be
due to the influence OF the comet up
on our atmosphere? The tronomors
do not yet know so much that they
can denv this. Where exact science
IS wanting, may we not all be free

WHAT MOVING PICTURES COST.

Moving picture shows in the United
States are taking In 100000 every
day.
1t is estimated that 800 persons
attend sueh shows every day in this
country. The income of such shows
Tor week is S2.080.039, or an annual
income Of about $1ea,001. 900.
These estimates are based on ac-
tual figures produced in court by
rival companies which are involved in
litigation over moving picture films.
Mr. Edisons royalties ON moving
picture machines average $1,000 a
week, This invention was sort Of
accident with him, but its develop
ment along with that Of the phone,
graph. has been instrumental in gly-
lug him one Of TIT greatest incomes
In America.
With the public paying $4,000 095
a year into the treasures of the five
and ten cent moving picture houses,
it is little wonder the high priced
theatres are complaining. The
crowds which formerly made up the
galleries in the better theatres are
now said to be eontented with the
best seats in the cheaper theatres
and melodrama has disappeared al
most entirely from the stage, so slight
was the public demand for it this
season.
Mr., Edison ii busily engaged on a
device which will coordinate the
moving pictures and the speeches OF
the actors in the pictures so perfectly
that drama can be given satisfac-
torily in that form. He is also con.
fident that opera will be satisfactorily
produced by such a device.
Edison is about to give America
the canned drama and opera in such
a manner that it will be available
wherever there is hall and a moving
picture machine. Evansville Courier.
