EGGS
oO~o I

George Fitch tells US that an egg
is composed Of four parasitic
shell is very fragile like one of
the Ten Commandments and can be
broken without an effort.
The price is the biggest part of
the egg and its greatest protection.
The price alone has saved millions
of innocent young eggs from being
boiled and eaten. ......
Eggs are very delicate and spoil
very quickly. When an egg spoils
it puts its whole heart into the per-
Torrance. One can tell a spoiled
egg rs far as it can be seen, with
ones eyes shut at that. if the wind
is in the right direction.
There was time when every one
ate fresh eggs in summer and went
without in winter. Nowadays,
however, business methods have led
men to buy up all the fresh eggs
in summer and store them until
winter, when they have acquired a
rich russell flavor. Those eggs
which cannot be sold in winter are
held over and sold next summer.
These eggs are not explosive, but
little else that is good can be said
of them.

Robert s. .Lovett Of the Southern
Pacific company, regarding the
Sierra tunnel, which was reported
to have been decided upon by the
Hartman board sal Z:
81 was fmisquoted in the publish
ed statements that we had decided
to construct the tunnel. What Il
said was that the TUNE; PROPOSE
ton wus just where it had been for
the last five or six years. The
tunnel we have under coslderation
would be five miles long and re-
quire electrical power.
With our Mallet engines to cone
with the steep grades we are hand
ling the traffic very economically
and SO far have been unable to, see
where it would pay to build such a
tunael at this time. We probably
will not have. to decide upon the
matter for several years. although
it will undoubtedly be approved
when the traffi" be .omes sufficiently
heavy to warrant the expense"

IKELAND'S SONG OF HOPE
 BY IEA N QzSrU'

- AND of the warrior hearts.
 Land of the souls of fire, Thy sad face pale A To the dawn unveii-
 From silence bonds unchain thy
 Tyre; Above thee slayery's dark cloud parts
 And tyrant foes abashed retire! Land of the strong and brave,
 Land of the tried and true;
 Thy spreading plains
 Meath the mild spring rains
 Again are shining, fresh and new, And singing tides thy fair shores lave i Thy hopes shall soon be ripened. too! l Free shah thy pure veins flow i Thy dormant pulses leap. { The scalding tear i Ssall disappear : From thy wan cheek. and humbled creep ! The hydra-headed wrong which low
 Plunged thy fair brow in Sorrows deepi Thy brooks and bounding streams, Grim war no more shall dye The call to arms. The strife's alarms,
 The flame sheets shrouding earth and
 sky.
 Shall burst no more upon thy dreams.
 But gentle slumbers seal thine eye! Famine and plague no more { Upon thy loved shall feed;
 The vampire maws Of bloody laws, i Shall choke of their insatiate greed. 1 And OCT thy rock-encireled shore The sersph Peace all blessings lead! 
 The gyves upon thy feet
 The thong around thy heart. Their cankering grasp Shall soon unclasp.
 And through the wide Earth's every part, Resounding notes of triumph sweet Shall tell the joy that-free thou art!
