Eggs Will Be Cheap
In Lenten Season.

New York, Feb. eggs, always a
favorite article of foods during Lent,
promised 70 be unusually plentiful and
cheap. during. the Lenten season now
beginning, according to a statement by
the New York Mercantile Exchange.
today.
Because of our unprecedented mild
weather tie production of new eggsg
is above the usual volume for this
early season. says the statement,
and prime fresh eggs are quoted, to-
day, in the wholesale market at 26 and
261a cents per dozen as compared with
IS TO 80 cents on the same day, last
year, showing a. saving to the con-
sumer of 12A cents a dozen in this
important commodity.
Meanwhile considerable supplies of
refrigerator eggs remain in storage
sufficient, probably to supply the
cheaper distributive channels for a
month at very moderate prices. Here
again the housewife will find a great
saving in comparison with the prices
of last year.

friedman culture to be brought to
this country, Dr. Austin b. Held, a
physician of Pittsburg, arrived on the
steamship Potsdam from Europe.
Thursday, and at once took a train for
home, where his wife, a consumptive,
awaits the arrival of what DR.. Held
believes will be a cure for her. DIR.
Held has enough bacilli only for one
patient, he declared. That patient will
be his wife.
DIR. Held was met at Quarantine by
DR.. Milton II. Foster of the Ellis Is
land health service and questioned in
behalf of the United States govern
ment about the Friedmann cure DIR.
Held told DR.. Foster he had been con-
WINGED of the efficacy of the cure. and
had obtained from Friedman just
enough serum to treat patient suf-
fering from tuberculosis of the bone
DR.. Frederick Franz Friedman, the
German scientist, who discovered the
serum, last month, was offered $1.000,-
GOO by Charles E. F'inlay, a banker
of this city, if he would cure 95 out of
100 patients to be placed under his
care. The bankers interest in the
serum resulted from the fact that
relative by marriage suffers with tu-
berculosis.

Pension Checks
Are on Time Under
The New System,

Washington, Feb. THE first checks
paid to pensioners, under the new sys-
TEN. which did away with the IS agencies
in various parts of the country, and unit
ed here under one head. have just gone
out and every one of the more than $780,
600 due this month were in the mail on
time.
"The crucial test the one, which we
were not sure we would be able to pass
successfully, has been made without a
hitch" said DR. Alvah H. Thompson, in
charge of the disbursements, today, after
the last pensioners check had started
ON its way,
"On account of the vast work involved
in bringing in all these agencies with
their yoluminous records it was feared
there might be some delay this first
month but such happily is not the case.
One of the things that pleased him most
about the new method of payment, DR..
Thompson said. was that all the checks
are drawn on the treasurer of the United
States. In days of stringency or money
panic, he said. this would tend to keep
money from concentrating, for the thous-
ands of banks throughout the country
that would be called upon to cash PEN
sion checks totalling many millions an
nually, would be able to keep their actual
cash at home.
