TESTING AN EGG.
There Are a Number of Ways to De-
tect Staleness Besides Smell
and Taste.

It does not require a very discrim-
mating palate to detect an old egg
from a new one. says a correspondent
Of the New York Sun. The former
has a musty flavor that the latter
never has. and the mustiness may
range from a slight tainr to a very
pronounced one. 1t is always notice
able in storage eggs.
If any one wishes to verify the judg-
ment of his palate, the following tests
may be used:
1T is almost impossible to peel the
shell from a fresh hard boiled egg
without having some of the white
come away with it.
"A stale egg cannot be beaten to
a froth.
3.-When fresh egg is broken into
a dish the yolk stands up and the
white does not spread, whereas in a
stale egg the yOlk lies fiat and the
white seems watery.
4.-The shell Of an egg after a GER
tain length Of time loses its chalky
appearance and becomes shiny.
5.-The air space in the large end
Of a newly laid egg is about half an
inch in diameter, and as the egg ages
/ this space grows larger. In storage
eggs it sometimes extends TO one
fourth the length. An expert can very
closely approximate the age OF an egg
! by examining this space. This Is
known as Gambling and is done bJ
/ holding the egg in a beam Of light
| A simpler test is to hard bon the egs
I and notice the relative size of tn'
space.

WOMAN AND WOE.
An Experienced Traveller Says That
Old Age In India Always Blends
the Two Into One.

81 have seen women under a burn
ing midday sun reaping in the fields, +"
says a writer on India; Il have seen
them at roadmaking in the streets of
cities; I have seen them loading en-.
gines with coal at railway stations; I
have seen them in long procession on
the white roads Of the plains carrying
great burdens on their heads like a
string of camels. And l have seen also
in the eyes Of every old woman whom
/ have encountered, every one of
them, such misery, adversely and aA-
cry bitterness as seemed to curse the
very air Of heaven. / have 2ot seen
one happy old woman in the whole
country.
Women follow through the village
like a dog at the husbands heel. Ma
ternity is no excuse for the task in the
field and the duties of the house. They
are servants without wages and with
out liberty to select another master.
Before them is perpetual servitude, and
if they are so abandoned by the gods
as to reach old age their certain des-
tiny is misery. detection, friendlessneSs
and black despair. I never knew all
the meaning Of the word woe Until I
looked into the face Of an old woman
under an Asian sky.
"The women folk of the upper classes
in India, speaking generally, re more
the prisoners of their husbands than
the women of the helOt castles They
do not labor except in cooking and
serving the meals Of their husbands
but they are cut off from the world as
completely as a nun: they do not even
know. in many cases, the male rela-
tiOns Of their husbands. They are lit
tie more than Gagged animals taught to
do few household tricks. .'--Chicago
