Genie Cookery.

To boil an egg, you first catch the egg. Never take any of the 13 eggs ander the hen. Having caught the egg, prepare a kettle of water hot enough to shave with, but don't stop to shave. You continue to heat the water while peeling the egg. An egg should be peeled from left to right, al. ways, as otherwise you peel against the grain. Catch the water at pre- cisely 76O degrees Fahrenheit, whic.' you can ascertain by inserting the jn, dex finger in the kettle. Then with hammer, nails, aud tongue-and-grooNe boards construct small chute. ol slide, which you can attach to the cell ing, leaving the lower end to swing in the kettle. You then roll the peeled egg down the chute into the water. You may then throw away the chute. Allow the egg to boil until completely finished, soft. medium, or. adamant, to suit the taste. Pour off the water. lift the egg gently but insistently, "l'
 Tradition and Coed eooks.
 Good books, like well-built houses, must have tradition behind them, writes Henry Seidel Canby in the Yale Review. The Homers and Shake speares and Goethes spring from rich soil left by dead centuries; they are like native trees that grow so we'll no. where else. The little writers--hacks, who Gentimentalize to the latest order, and display their plot novelties like bargains on an advertising page-are just as traditional. The only differ. ence is that their tradition goes back to books instead of life. Middle-sized authors-the very good and the prob- ably endurlng-are. successful largely because they have gripped tradition and followed 1t through to contem- porary life. That is what Thackeray did in "Vanity Fair," Howells in ''The Rise of Silas Lapham" and Mrs. Whar- ton in "The House of MEth." But back-tOnature books-bcth sound ones and those shameless exposures of the private emotions of ground-EOgs and turtles that call themselves nature books-are the most traditional of all For they plunge directly into what might be called the adventures of the American suhconsciousness.

Telltale Eyes and Toes.

The eyes tell the story of guilt when all the other muscles are controlled. This you will learn in the eleventh chapter of Darwin's book. Sometimes when the face is controlled, as in tho case of natives of India, other muscles are uncomfortable. Sir Henry Maine declares that in India the judge can tell when native is lying by watch ing his toes. He keeps his face per fectly straight and his eyes expres- sionless, but his toes begin to- wjgSie as soon as he begins to lie.

Tonight! Take Dodson's Liver Tone!
 Better Than Ca|ome| For Liver Calonel sckens! If bilious, constipated and head
 achv read my guarantee.

Listen to me. Take no more sick ening, salivating calomel when bilious or constipated. Don't lose days work!
 Calomel Is mercury or quicksilver which causes necrosis of the bones. Calomel, when it comes into contact with sour bile, crashes into it, break ing it up. This is when you feel that awful nausea and cramping. If you are sluggish and "all knocked out" if your liver is torpid and bowels consti pated or you have headache, dizziness, coated tongue, if breath is bad or stomach sour just take spoonful of harmless Dodson't Liver Tone.
 Here's my guarantee-Go to any drug store and get bottle of Dod- sons Tone for few cents. Take spoonful tonight, and if it doesn't

straighten you right up and make you feel fine and vigorous by morning, l want you to go back to the store and get your monev back. Dodson's Liver Tone is destroying the sale of calomel because it is real liver medicine; en- tirely vegetable, therefore it can not salivate or make you sick.
