with numerous others whom he had
somewhat intimately known along the
border circuit. II was difficult to as

The girl rode easily, although in a
mans saddle, the stirrups much too
long. Keith glanced aside with swift
approval at the erectness with which
she sat, the loosened rein in her hand,
the slight swaying Of her form. He

KEEPING AND STORING EGGS
Well Dissolved Solution Of Water,
SIaked Lime and Salt Is Recon-
mended-Don't Crack.

There are many plans suggested for
keeping and storing eggs, but very
simple one appears In a recent ex.
change: To every three gallons Of
water add one pound Of fresh slaked
lime and one-half pint of salt. Have it
we'll dissolved. Drop in your eggs one
at time, but mind do not crack them.
II you wish to keep them one or two
years you can do so. But you must
use them as soon as taken out or they
will spoil. When you put in all you
wish, take thin piece of board and
put on top, and on that put little salt
and lime that the top may be as strong
as the bottom. If these are kept at
sea and in different climates, why not
keep on land in a cool cellar? Should
you wish to keep to transport, dissolve
sufficient gum sheliac to make thin
varnish in alcohol, let them dry, then
after giving each egg q coat pack
them in bran or sawdust. When want.
ed wash or the varnish and they are
ready to be cooked.
