EGGS COOKED TO SUIT HIM
How John Randolph Had Them Boiled
With Assistance. Of String
OF Servants.

Most persons who eat eggs at all
are particular about them. The boil
ing Of an egg seems q simple matter.
but many q breakfast has been spoiled
and many q temper rasped by the
cooks failing to observe the precise
humber of minutes and seconds that
the process should occupy.
That very original man. John Ran
dolph, il said to have invented q
method of getting his eggs cooked ex-
actly to his taste that worked per
fectly. As In the case In many coun-
try homes In the south. the kitchen
was in a separate building at some
distance from the house. and servants
were plenty.
When the sage of Roanoke took
his seat at the breakfast table there
was q line Of servants from the din
ing room to the kitchen. Mrs. RAN
dolph, the mother of the statesman.
held an open watch in her hand.
I'M" exclaimed Mr.. Randolph, and
the word Sin" was passed from mouth
to mouth until 1t reached the waiting
cook, who dropped the eggs into the
water. After the requisite number Of
seconds the holder Of the timepiece
signified that the cooking was done.
"Out!" went forth the command in
like manner. and the eggs were quick
ly removed.
The system required six or seven
servants to cook one egg. but Ram
dolph was accustomed to declare that
this was the only way that he could
get 1t cooked to suit him.

Frankness Always Best,

Absolute frankness usually works
Tor the good of everybody. Like all
rules, this has exceptions, but like 9TH
er rules it is not much affected by
them. No real man wants an unwill-
ing wife, and no true woman wants a
husband who does not love her and
probably does love somebody else.
Money has nothing whatever to do
with the case, and would not enter
into the calculation of either. To sus-
pect the genuineness of an affection
that is balanced against cash settle
ment IL natural enough and there is
little wonder that the world believes
that greed or revenge turks at the
base of plans which find their way to
court of law.
