A New Egg Preserves.

There is a comparatively new egg
preservative on the market that In
m any respects surpasses water glass
for home use. 1t is a paste preserva-
tive and each egg is separately an
nointed, thus closing the pores of the
shell to evaporation.
The labor involved in following this
method is little greater than when
water glass is used, but the cost ID
much less, being about one cent =
dozen.
After the eggs are treated they ara
wrapped in paper or put away in IN
egg case and kept in dry cool plaee.
One Of the greatest factors favoring
this method Of preserving eggs is that
il bad egg is accidentally put away,
it does not have deteriorating effect
on the other eggs preserved with it.
Full Information concerning this
preser vative can be gotten from the
manufacturer, Mr.. R. G. Fleming.

Don't Worry Over War.

The greatest Statesmen of America,
Great Britain, France, Italy, Russia
and Japan. and of many minor nations
are giving their best thought to the
problems of this war. The scientists,
the financiers, the students, the bust
ness men, the leaders of every kind of
human effort are working together
harmoniously for a single purpose.
No such organization backed by the
resources of six great nations and
many others, was ever known in the
worlds history. If these leaders can
not find the pathway to success, it is
not likely that men Of smaller powers
will be able to find it.
The important thing for the Amer-
can citizen now days is not to worry
about the mistakes of the grand coun-
Gil Of national defense, but to consider
what he can do to help the govern
ment, and then do it.-Ex.
