Nest Eaas For Jam Pots.

When large glass jar of jam or
preserves is opened and II is not the
housekeeper's desire to use 1t all at
once she is often In quandary to know
how to dispose of what Is left when
the first few spoonfuls have been re-
moved. The best method yet suggest
ed is this:
Let the housekeeper have a small
stock Of china nest eggs, which can be
bought for about cent apiece. When
she removes part Of the contents Of a
jar let her drop into II enough Of the
china eggs to raise the contents to the
top again; then replace the cover. OF
course the china eggs should be dipped
into boiling water first in order that
they may not introduce the germs Of
decay.-New York World.

Transportation Offices.

The company has stipulated with
the exposition people to reserve be-
tween thirteen and fourteen thou
sand feet of space in one wing of the
structure for such space as may be
desired by other transportation COM
panies, rail or steamer, and offices
of this kind will be confined to this
building. The convenience to eXposi-
ton visitors of concentrating the
transportation offices in this manner
is obvious.
In addition the building, which
was designed by the Southern Pacific
maintenance of way department, will
have rest rooms for men and women,
a smoking room for men, and an in
formation bureau for the convenience
of all visitors, and a ticket office.
The exterior will be prettily set off
by a parking arrangement for the
exploitation of CALIFORNIA; trees and
flowers.
The entire exhibit is intended to
be scheme worthy of the exposition
and the Southern Pacific Company.

Southern Pacific
To Have Building

Housed in an imposing two-story
structure seventy feet in height, and
occupying in ground space an area
almost equal to San Francisco's new
million-dollar auditorium, the South
ern Pacific Company's main exhibit
at the Panama Pacific International
Exposition promises to be one of the
most attractive on the 1915 grounds.
The location is ideal. The Southern
Pacific building will be in the heart
of the grounds, at the head of Palm
avenue. 1t will adjoin Machinery
Hall and the Panama canal exhibit,
and be at one end of the concessions
district.
The architecture of the building
will be renaissance, The front will
be set off by a series of Corinthian
columns and there will be six en-
frances, the three main ones being
on Palm avenue. The interior will
include what is to be known as the
Sunset Theatre" where visitors will
| find an abundance of varied enter
tainment The theatre will have a
seating capacity of four hundred.
The central or main exhibit room,
two hundred feet square, will be de-
voted to a unique and instructive ex-
hibit pertaining to the Southern Pa
cific Company's business. While the
specific nature of this exhibit has not
been revealed, the promise is made
that it will prove an exceptionally
interesting and instructive one, both
to the Pacific coast resident and to
the visitor who comes out here from
other climes. Between the entrances
and the exhibit sections there will be
spacious and highly decorated lob
bies.
