The good oId.fashioned barnyard
hen is threatened with rival in the
fleld of egg production. Or. Paul
walden, an eminent Russian chemist,
is authority for the statement that
there will be a new labor-saving pro-
cess found in the laboratories before
long. and this will be nothing less
than the accomplishment of the pro-
duction Of eggs without the aid of the
hen. Doctor Walden points out that
Professor Berthsen of Germany has al
ready accomplished the feat of ma
king a simple compound of the same
chemical elements which enter into
the composition of an egg, and the
process is largely based on the
modern methods of capturing and
turning to various useful purposes the
nitrogen of the atmosphere. It will
not be long, Doctor Walden predicts,
before the egg will be successfully
duplicated in the laboratory and pro-
cess worked out that will permit OF
its manufacture.

Be Developed.

Good spelling and intelligent pune
tuation are the accomplishments that
keep many gray-haired women draw
ing good salaries as stenographers in
downtown Offices. The manager OF a
typewriting Office from which are sent
hundreds of stenographers makes no
secret Of the fact that good spoilers
are scarce.
"We had a customer come in the
other day." said the manager, who
had evidently had a run Of hard luck
in the spelling line. He wanted a
woman who could spell. No matter
if she's cross-eyed and has a hunch
on her back he said. If she can spell
and write an intelligent letter. While
this was a rather extreme case II
shows that employers are beginning
to grow impatient over the careless
spelling of today"
Another Office sending out many ste
nographers has a series OF test letters
prepared especially with spelling
catches for the unwary. Common
words. famous as pitfalls for careless
spoilers, are strewn throughout these
specimen letters. Fully half the ap.
plicants put an extra G in separate;
in many cases the e before the last
syllable in noticeable is missing, while
the correct placing of the lis In the
word parallel reduces many of the
applicants to a state of discourage
ment
Good spelling is a pretty sure sign

stenographers. Il find that If one OF
our stenographers is naturally a good

fact it is no small job to keep up with
the spelling of the hundreds OF new
words.
