Mrs. Allprofht had been abroad and
returned to the hilltop section.
Il am so delighted to be once again

telling her friend who had called.
Did you go abroad, you say she
was asked.
NO, l only went as far as Europe

providential cities OF England. I
didn't care TO do Ireland, it is so Irish
over there, you know. And as for
Scotland, | simply couldn't stand to

barrassing, reassure you. Yes, I
like the French best of ALL They are
so unprepossesSing, and their man
ners are so disengaging. | could not
but suppress my highest disapproba-
ton for them | didn't care much for
Germany They are so soporiferous
over there. and the weather, instead
OF being enervating like we have it in
PallSade, was very trying and sup
pressing. | like the flamboyant at
mosphere we have over here so much
better than the climatic weather we
disengaged all through Germany. l
was very much disqualified the min
ute l saw it. But Italy suppressed
my highest Indignation. Oh it was
all absorbent every hour of the day,
and had me languishing in its collat-
eral confluence. trust YOU follow

gate to my hearts content and never
grow tired OF 1t.

HOW HUBBY GOT THE EGGS.
Palisade Lady Sends Husband Out in
the Cold at Christmas.

the Cold at Christmas.
MY dear?" said Mrs. Jenkins one
very cold night about $50, when the
weather promised to go to zero be-
fore morning.
yes, love-" answered her husband.
I want you to do me a small ia
vor. said the wife.
whats that"
Il want some fresh eggs from Mrs.
Iogarmarsino over in Palisades Park.
Tomorrow is my cake day. and |
haven't an egg in the house. You
know | have to have fresh laid eggs
for Christmas cake"
DO you have to have them, dearie,
to-night?"
yes, they must be here tonight,
so | can begin baking the first thing
in the morning" answered Mrs. Jen-
kins.
Mr.. Jenkins didn't like the situa-
ton, but he bundled up and went out
the front door The wind was COM
inc from the northwest like an infu-
rated demon. 1t was colder than
blazes, and Jenkins baked then and
there, He didn't propose to walk
two miles in that blast for eggs. Be
sides, he didn't remember how many
his wife wanted. So he boldly trotted
off to the nearby store and bought
five dozen eggs labeled on the box
strictly fresh" He remained around
the store about long enough to go to
Palisades Park and back, then hur-
ried home and handed over two pa
per bags containing the eggs
Whats in the bags, Hubby"
asked Mrs. Jenkins, tapping her foot
on the floor
Why. eggs, OF course" answered
Mr. Jenkins.
Eggs? Two bags Of eggs? Why,
what's the matter with your l never
asked for two bags of eggs. l told
you to get Mrs. Logomarsino to send
me one dozen fresh eggs You must
have brought a hundred"
No, l got only five dozen"
That's very strange. she has only
a few hens, and never has over
dozen eggs at a time"
We'll, l don't know anything about
that nervously added the husband
No. but we have discussed Mrs.
Lagomarsino's eggs time and time
again, and you know all about how
she has appreciated my buying all
the eggs she had. What did you pay
herr"
Two dollars for the five dozen"
Two dollars! Why her eggs are
worth sixty cents a dozenl Henry. l
think there IS something rotten in
Denmark"
Maybe its the eggs" Henry sug-
gested
No, it's you You didn't get those
eggs in Palisades Park, and you know
it. Now, own up"
But Henry never did. and he hasn't
been real happy since.

Calendar Reform IN China.

From Picking 1t Is announced that
the Chinese government Is about to
drop the troublesome moon from Its
calendar and follow the practice OF
western nations in using only the
sun. The present Chinese year began
on January 80 and is the year 4s OF
the seventy-sixth cycle, cycle con-
sisting Of go years and the first year
OF the first cycle occurring y. G. 1887
But owing to the use Of the moon the
number of days in the year varies con-
siderably. Ordinarily there are AZ lu-
nations or months. but once In 80 lu-
nations thirteenth lunation is added
to the year, as a result Of which the
year can be as short as 1854 days or
as long as 3S4 days. The months are
more regular than our own, alternat-
ing between 20 and 80 days. The Chi
nese year completely falls to keep the
seasons within proper bounds. !.
