There is still another successful way in
which to cook an egg soft within its ma
tive shell. To proceed, put the eggs into
a wire basket and then drop this basket
into a kettle of warm water. After in

the water begins to boil the egg may i'm

one does not care for soft eggs, it is
simple process to increase the time by
one or two minutes. but never guess at
the time.
There are still other ways to boil an
egg. Obtain at a trifiing cost the latest
thing in egg cups, an earthenware, her
metically sealed device with a screw top.
Break the shell and drop the egg within
the cup. Screw the top closely and place
the egg into boiling water. Allow two
minutes for the cup to heat, and there

or hard boiled eggs, two, three or five
minutes. Eaten from the cup the egg is
a most succulent morsel, the considerate
treatment having completely melted the
eggs heart.
If you would have a hard-boiled egg in
all it's perfection, take the egg and drop
1t into lukewarm water, or water that is
just beginning to bubble, but not vet boil
ing. This preliminary step is necessary in
order that the white may not be tough

Appetizing Eggs.

A LITTLE simple pampering does an
egg a world of good. Treat an egg
with the courtesy that a perfect food
deserves and it will come forth from the
shell mellow. fuu-flavored, melting in the
mouth with delicious flavor, an excel
lent and fortifying food with which to be-
gin the day.
The mystery of the boiled egg is dis
closed in three degrees-soft medium and
hard Soft-boiled eggs are eggs boiled for
two minutes. The whites, however, IL
dropped into boiling water. are little
tough near the shell. Steamed eggs are
better, for the steaming gently coaxes out
of the egg the best that is in it.
For six eggs take two quarts of water
that is just off the boiling point and pour
it over them in pan set off the fire. Let
them stand for ten minutes Then drain
off this water and pour boiling water over
them again, letting it run off as it pours.
Serve at once. A surprise awaits those
who WOO an egg in this manner. for II
responds with a coagulated but soft and
creamy white and a yielding yolk, an
effect totally different from that pro-
duced by the two minutes of boiling
water.

This amendment would be some restric

isdiction Of state courts over subjects

The chief Justice gave Illustrations Of
what the effect of the decision might
be. lie declared that the court had said
TO the patentee selling a patented engine
that he had the right by contract to
bring under the patent laws all con-
tracts for coal or electrical energy used

cause the public is always free to

he would dissent because he believed.
