EGGS AND THE HEN.

Life Work Nature Has All Laid Out

There Is water a-plenty in a fresh
laid egg. but no more air than there is

the egg it will remain sweet and fresh.
but no one has ever succeeded in keep

days. The oxygen Is bound to find its
way through an eggshelrs pores. and
the only way to save that egg then Is
to eat it. 1t sounds funny. but the
moment you give an egg fresh air that
moment you ruin its health
"A good. healthy hen-nOt speaking

STIFFENING BRlSTLES.
Treatment With Ammonia and Sail
Restores Their Elasticity.

Treatment With Ammonia and Salt
Restores Their Elasticity.
Bristles that have lost their stiffness
may be restored by washing them in
hot water to which has been added
about two teaspoOnfuls Of ammonia.
then dipping them in water to which
salt has been added Dry the brush
in the open air with the bristles up
Washing the brush In warm water
to which little ammonia has been
added is an effectual way Of cleansing
brush and one that is not likely to
make the bristles too soft. 1t is not
necessary to imnerse the whole brush:
merely hold the bristles below the sur.
face of the water. and you will be sur
prised at the ease with which 1t will be
cleansed Of grease and dust.
Another excellent method for the
weekly cleaning and one which prob
ably will not wear the brush out SO
quickly Is the use Of dry bran. Rub
the bran in thoroughly. afterward comb
ing and shaking 1t out. It win remove
all grease and will leave the bristles
firm. This should be done at least
once week.

WEIGHT After Meals,

There Is. or used to be. an idea that
one weighs less after meal than be-
fore. but that is nonsense. There Is
always a definite increase of weight
after a meal. and with most people 1t
IL curiously uniform. After an average
dinner washed down with the average
amount Of llquid-three-quarters Of a
pint-the average man will invariably
find that he weighs two pounds more
than he did before the meal. There
seems to be no reason why really
determined diner should not double
that increase. A half pint tumbler Of
water or Il breakfast cupful Of tea
weighs ten ounces. SO that probably
over half of the two pounds increase
Of weight after dinner Is accounted for
by the liquid part of the meal.-Man-
chester Guardian.

One of the most enthusiastic Red
Cross workers in England is ex-Queen
Amelie Of Portugal, who is princess
Of the exiled royal family Of France.
Her great grandfather was Louis
Philippe. the citizen king Of France.
whose reign came to violent end in
1913. Her father. the Comte de Parts.
was heir to the throne. and her eldest
brother, the Due de Orleans. is known
as the French pretender.
Queen Amelie. who has resided in
England since her son, ex-King Man
uel. lost the throne of Portugal. is a
clever and amiable woman. She has
studied nursing and holds degree in
medicine.
AS soon as the present war broke out
she offered her services to France. as
did her two brothers also. While
thanking them for the offer. the
French government suggested that they
cooperate with the English. as there
is a law that forbids scions Of former
royal houses to return to France.
