Wet Goods Dealer Found That Bundle
He 60 obIIpIngIy Kept for Cue
TONER Had lts uses.

Aren't the master workmen Of the
wet goods establishments easy marks7
That II what the gentry who live by
their wits are asking each other. They
know that the proprietor Of a wet
goods establishment loses his mental
balance and Is completely disarmed
when he In invited to have a drink. Re-
Gently two husky-looking individuals
entered q Forty-second street suds en-
porium. One Of the party carried an
enormous bundle, which he placed on
the top Of the mahogany. They both
called for drink.
"weII. II is hopeful that my wife
will stop her nagging about the cold
weather and being cold when I carry
this home" said the man who carried
the bundle.
At the end Of the bar stood the pro-
priet0r Of the wet goods establishment.
He seemed curious, so the two men In
vited him to have drink, which was
accepted. One Of them explained that
he had the finest pair Of wool blankets
that was ever sheared from the backs
Of sheep In the package.

Feel for yourself" he said. M he
unfastened one end Of the bundle.
The proprietor felt and acknowl-
edged that they were the simon pure
wool article.
I'm taking them home TO my wife,"
said the owner. "She has been kicking
about being cold.'
Then they had another round Of u.
guilds.
well. I must BE- on my way" said
the man, AZ he picked up the bundle.
why don't you leave them here un-
til you start for homer interposed HIS
companion.
"Good idea" he said. And turning
to the owner Of the cafe he asked II
he could leave the bundle.
Sure" said the proprietor. "but you
had better write your name on II to
avoid any mistake"
Twelve o'clock came around and the
man hadn't called for HIS bundle. ~
can see that fellow getting more HI
when he goes home tonight" said the
proprietor as he turned the key In the
door.
The next day the owner Of the cafe
was the FIRST on the job. He took
survey Of the wet goods and then went
to the rear Of the store, where the snfe
was. Here was surprise for him.

DENIAL OF FALSE ACCUSATION
Kerby, Oregon
AnriI a Ia12.

April 8, 1918.
To be called a pro-German at this
time, Of all times. when our coun-
try is undergoing the perils OF this
awful world war, is more than l. an
American born citizen viii bear,
much longer, and I take this way to
make known to the public that ] am
a loyal American citizen, and intend
to remain so, in spite OF the Idle
gossipers who sowed the seed for
this accusation nearly a year ago
when my wife and ! became mem
bers Of Kerby branch Of Red Cros.
False and misleading statements
have been made for malicious pur-
poses. that was pro-German and
did not contribute to the Red Cross.
I hereby brand all such statements
as false, and refer to Red Cross re-
ceipt No. J, 2s,222, dated July 10.
1917, signed by r. X. Hackeft.
The rumor in regard to this re-
ceipt has been started three times
and / hope this proves satisfactory,
to the minds of some who have
spread the gossip from door to door,
instead Of reporting to proper au-
thorities.

The Home Demonstration Agent.
Miss Anne Mccormick. says that
now is the time that the housewife
should give some attention TO the pre-
serving OF eggs for fall end winter
use. Eggs put down In the spring
have been found to keep better than
those laid later In the year.
Only clean. fresh eggs should be
used for waterglassing purposes.
Do not use eggs that have been
washed as they spoil more easily
than unwashed. clean eggs. II suf-
ficient eggs are not obtainable when
the waterglass solution Is FIRST made.
additional eggs may be added from
time to time.
waterglass Is 80 cents quart
and quart Of waterglass viii pre-
serve Is dozen eggs. II is not de-
sirable to use the waterglass solution
q second time. Eggs can be water
glassed for about two cents dozen.
Since waterglass eggs remain In ex-
cellent condition they can be used
In the fall and winter when fresh
eggs are selling for 60 cents or
more a dozen.
Use the following method when
waterglassing eggs:
1. Select a 5-gallon crock and
clean It thoroughly after which II
should be scalded and allowed to
dry.
2. Heat a quantity OF water to the
boiling point and allow II to cool.
8. when cool. measure out nine
quarts OF water. place II in the crock
and add the one quart OF waterglass,
stirring the mixture thoroughly
I. Place the eggs In this solution.
Eggs may be added from day to day.
Be very careful to allow at least ?
inches OF the solution to covevr the
eggs at all times.
s. Place the crock containing the
preserved eggs in cool, dry place,
well covered to prevent evapora-
tion.

LYRIC

scene that is destined to go down in the annals of Bridgeports creative genius is that shown in the third act of Brewster's Millions, now being of, fered by the Po1i Players at the New. Lyric theatre.
 Y It is the famous yachting scene, which is always the topic of conver- sation when the comedy effect of Monte Brewster's attempt to spend money is overlooked.
 At the Lyric, A. L. Roberts, the scenic director has fabricated one of the marvels of Bridgeport's scene- lofts. Not so much in the boat itself to be considered in comparison with | the vivid and animated effect that Is gained in the rolling waters and the ! billowy seas that beat against the Iyacht. This has been enhanced by a clouded sky continually rolling on and | giving one the feeling of impending | storm. As the tugs and other craft
 of a harbor pass in sights Lyric audi
 ences on Tuesday and Monday, were forced to applaud from sheer appre- | citation. The scene is said to be one of the best laid down in this city and Ecost Manager Arvine a tidy sum. But

 to witness this.
 A full cast of players including Dudley Ayres, Miss Warda Howard Harold Kennedy, Gladys Knorr ant other prime favorites here are inter woven in the cast and comedy which

EMPIRE

The Thing We Love-" the latest Wallace Reid picture produced by Paramount, is one of the strongest things that brilliant young star has ever done. It deals with patriotism in it's highest form and the story is as follows:
 Rodney Sheridan ( Wallace Reid) is engaged to Margaret Kenwood, daughter of the president of the Ken wood Manufacturing Co.,, of which Rodney is vice-president himself. Both Rodney and Margaret are strongly anti-war when the action of the story commences, which is at about the outbreak of the European war.
 When Margaret's father pledges his plant to the manufacture of muni- tions, Rodney refuses to assist and re- slgns his position. He also starts a violent campaign against the pro- cedure and against all war in general Margarets father, enraged, plans tc frame a charge of embezzlement against Rodney, which he carrie. out
 Manager Keeney of the Empire theatre has announced that 'HTht Thing We Love- will be- shown at hi: theatre today and tomorrow.

GOVERNOR URGES
 SAVING OF M AN 20 W ER FOR WAR
Restricted Deliveries In Re tail Trade Subject of
 Recommendation

Governor Marcus H. Holcomb, in a statement issued yesterday, urges the adoption throughout Connecticut of the commercial economy recom- mendations which go to the people of this state from the Council of Nation al Defense through the Connecticut State Council of Defense. Governor Holcomb's statement follows:
 TO the People of the State O. Con-
 necticut:
 Democracy is on trial in the world today. America is the mother coun- try of modern republics. As we led the way to freedom, so let us lead the way to efficiency. If a self-govern- ed people does it's work in a slip shod way, no ground work of high principle may save it in the fierce struggle for political existence.
 Hitherto our country has been mo- torious in the family of nations for it's wastefulness. We have been the worlds great producer and the worlds great spendthrift.
 "One of our forms of extravaganza and a peculiarly selfish and indo- lent one-has been the absurd mul- | tiplications of deliveries of merchan- disc by retail merchants. In the lan- guage of the trade, service has de- | veloped into superservice." This abuse can be stopped by cooperation between the two parties interested, the dealer and the purchaser.
 q submit to the consideration of our peoples these simple and self evident truths: First, that the man power of this country will be strained to the uttermost before this war reaches a conclusion. It is stealing from civilization at this hour to waste the service of a man. Shipbuildingi munition plants, farms, railroad com panies, armies and navies are all clamoring for men.
 Second the man-power of the na- tion must be reinforced by diversion and substitution. Thousands of men may be taken from the retail estab- lishments of Connecticut without ap' preciable dininution of efficiency.
 Third, at the request of the Ma. tional Council of Defense, the State Council of Defense, through its com mittee on commercial economy, pro poses to reduce this waste of man power and equipment by (a) by re Stricting deliveries to one per day over a given route; (b) by elimina ting special deliveries;" Co by or ganization of cooperative deliveries (d) by eliminating return or c. o. D purchases;" and (e) by requesting tht purchasing public to carry it's ow1 parcels, provided the purchaser doe not use a private automobile to gt and get the parcel.
 T, therefore, call upon the retai merchants of this state to put int effect, at the earliest possible date the substance of the foregoing recon mendations, by means of friendly co ,operation and the sinking of trade ri vaIry. call upon the retail purchas CTS of the state (especially the wo men, who in other lines of war worl are serving their country so loyall. and effectively to assist the dealer
