Justice T. w Boydston,s once last
week when Constable John S, Walker
!! had about d thousand magazines
which have been stacked inth corner;
Of the room for the past year. which:
We're taken under an execution, and.
onicer Hawkins would have sold the
entire lot to him or any one else forsa
few dollars. There were. sllskinds OF
magazines in the bunch. They we're
sold to a local First ward, dealer a few

! viii Eggs Go upf-.There Is no
question about It. eggs are going :npiihl
TINS section soon, very soon. probably
this week or In the next TEN day S, T!
remarked a prominent Madison street
restaurant proprietor THIS morning,
and have made arrangements TO purc
! chase Just as many strictly fresh coun.
/, try eggs as possibly can this week
and put them In cold storage myself.
! have refrigerator in which ] can
store n large amount Of then fruit to
use In the next months. This will
be. whole lot better than serving eggs
that have been IN. dealers cold storage
for an unknown length OF time. 1t has
been impossible during the past six
months. or. even longer than that, to
get fresh countryseggs in any quantity
and when: the restaurant imam buys
eggs he has nomeans Of knowing pos.
lively lust how old they are
Hen fruit Is cheap now cheaper
than 1T bag been for a long while
eggs may now be bought at twenty
cents the dozen intFairmont in large
lots and In some cases---hot egg cases
Eat that price in lots OF n few dozen,
and a few Of the local dealers are SELF
ing them at that price a single dozen.
They are good, fresh. country eggs.
1t Is feared that this low price will
not prevail long, for a touch OF cold
weather Is due tsee wheather forecast
in this. issue). and then the hens will
go on strike and their product will
60 up. Cold weather and low priced
eggs agree Just about as we'll as the
two Wheeling morning newspapers.
And that's no Joke!
Cold storage eggs, some OF which
have probably been in storage since
the Spanish.Amerlcan war; maybe the
Civil war SO far as the, layman knows,
are selling cheaply all over the coun,
try. They are retailing at almost Snny
price the dealer can get for them. For
Pes certain fast that American people
are not going to buy the 5. variety
when they can get those that are on
sale almost before the hen gets;
through cackiing. During the past
! few weeks when country eggs have
become so cheap one has the nerve
to ask at restaurants that he be served.
i fresh eggs, the old phrase which was
used at the lunch counter in the hap
py days gone by. but until recently It
was obsolete. !. So i
Cold storage eggs can now be. Ind at
Al and 12 cents per dozen. about one.
half as cheap as they, were retailing for
last season. at this time. but their sale
is slow and the longer they are on the
market the older they become. II 1t
We're possible for eggs to raise whis:
'kers each Of these eggs would furnish
enough hair to stuff an ordinary sofa.
This is said with perfect safety as. it
is known that the ancient hen fruit is
too old to defend Itself, but it's bad
to take advantage OF the aged.
