Poachinq an Eqa.

The food value of an egg is enormous,
but an invalid tires of eggs served in
the ordinary way. Here is a method in
yolying some trouble, but worth it for
the sick persons sake. Break an egg
into a fiat dish of cold water and let
it remain covered with muslin for
twelve hours. Then pour the water of
very gently indeed, SO as to prevent
the egg going with it. Now poach the
latter in boiling water, adding just a
tiny pinch of salt. This, nicely served,
can be eaten by any one, for 1t melts
in the mouth literally. Two might
be cooked. for done in this way one
egg is not much.-Buffalo News.

Devilfsh weighing up to 200 pounds
are sometimes caught in Japan. These
fish are amphibious. They are often
seen wabbling on their tentacles like
giant spiders in search of patches of
sweet potatoes. The natives kill them
with clubs. In the water they are
caught in jars lowered to the bottom,
which the octopus enters, thinking
them a good retreat from which to
catch its food.
