Eggs give one of the purest forms.
Of albumen, or proteid, and, conse-
quently, they have great nutritive
value To be easily digested, they
should be beaten up SO as to separate

be boiled SO as to be easily broken up.
When athletes are training for q con-

Paris, Dec, 24.-The French govern

prosecution of the war against Ger
many until absolute victory has been
won, Europe liberated and peace guar.
anteed.
Premier Rene viviani set this forth
in emphatic fashion when the french
senate and chamber of deputies met
in extraordinary session to take steps
for the successful waging OF the con-
flict. = ~

front and attended the session In their
uniforms. The seats Of those VINO

Full responsibility for the war was
placed upon Germany by the premier
and he declared that this was clear
to the world.
The premier's speech was as fol-
lows:
"This communication is not the Gus

ment which presents itself for the
first time before the parliament denes
it's policy. +. -
"At this hour It has not other policy
than combat without mercy until
the definite liberation Of Europe shall
be guaranteed by a peace accom-
plished by absolute victory.

nations involved and even the sensa-
tional speech made at Rome by one
Of the most illustrious representatives
Of noble Italy demonstrate that our
enemy, for long time, had been de-
termined to attempt the use Of force.
"Any one of these documents would
be sufficient to make 1t clear to the
world that when. at the suggestion OF
the british government, all the ma
tons were asked to suspend their
military preparations and to begin ne
gotiations at London. on July 81, 1914
