CAST OFF BURDEN
Load OF Thirty Years Lifted from
W0man's Heart
Attempted Restitution of Sum Of
Money Which She Had Found and
Kept When In Dire Extremity
Filled Her With Joy.

THANK God, have found you ut
last. l must see YOU"
1T was the QuaYcriDg voice Of an old
woman, conscience stricken for 30
years because she had kept $1O0 that
did not belong to her and now able to
pay with her dead sons insurance
money.
She was speaking over the telephone
In Philadelphia to d. e. Irving. head
Of Irving & Leiper, cotton, Chester.
"But do not know YOU" he said,
speaking from his mill. "Why do you
want to see me-"
II owe you money" said the woman.
Her insistence caused him to agree to
meet her in Broad street station.
where she was to wear shawl over
her left arm and hold bag In her
right hand as marks Of recognition.
The manufactures met her. With
her was younger woman.
Thirty years ago, she told him, she
was walking in Philadelphia when She
saw man dropping wallet.
She described the man. 1t was q
close description Of James Irving, Mr.
Irving's father. who died years ago
and who was heir OF James Irving &
Sons, wool manufacturers, Irvington.
II picked up the wallet" the woman
said. ut contained 500 bill and two
pennies. There was also card in 1t.
do not remember all that was on the
card. But remember the name urv-
ing. and wool merchant
II had lost my husband only three
months before. did not know how to
pay the rent. I had no shoes for my
children. I was horribly tempted. And
l did not resist. did not overtake
the owner Of the wallet. kept the
money.
"But ever since then it has been on
my mind. on my conscience. There
was not day that did not think OF
that money. There was not night that
I did not ask God in my prayer to for
give me. 1t was the only dishonest
thing I ever did.
II kept the wallet and the card with
me always, hoping that some day
might be able to repay. But could
not. I was poor nll my life. And 20
years ago, in moving, lost the wallet
and the card.
"But did not forget the name.
Three months ngo my oldest son died.
He left me some money through nm In
surance. 1t was the first money
ever had. Please, please, sir, take IT."
she said, rs she stretched out her hand
She held five $50 bills.
When Mr.. Irving asked her how she
had found him she told him she had
telephoned to hundreds Of "Irvings', III
the last three months. She telcphoned
to Irvings in Philadelphia, Wilmington
and even In Pittsburgh and New York
but always received the same curt re-
ply:
You must have the wrong party"
When Mr.. Irving told the woman he
could not accept the money because he
did not know that his father ever lost
1t she nearly broke down. She begged
him to take 1t.
won't YOU please take this terrible
load OF my heart at last?"
The manufacturer promised her to
ask his oldest sister If she remembered
the occurrence. But his sister rcmcm-
bcred 1t only vaguely If at all. And
Mr.. Irving wrote n letter to the wOm-
an asking her to favor him by ac-
ccpting the 500 rs n gift

Different KINDS OF
EGGS USED FOR FOOD
Those of Guinea Are highly
Priced for Flavor.
Hens Eggs Are Most Common, Al
though Those Of Other Domestic
Poultry Are Used-Fish Eggs
Are In Great Favor.

Perhaps no article. Of diet OF anil
NAL origin is more commonly eaten In
all countries or served in greater
variety of ways than eggs, says the
United States department of agricul-
ture. Hens eggs are most common,
although the eggs of domestic poultry
other than hens are some ines used.
Guinea eggs are eaten where they are
readily obtained and are much priced
for their delicate flavor. Turkey eggs
are mild in flavor and are eaten TO
some extent, though they are usually
too valuable for Matching to be much
used as food.
Ducks eggs are stronger or more
pronounced in flavor than hens eggs.
the feed apparently exercising consid-
erable influence on the flavor. but they
are much liked by many people ana
are now used more than formerly.
Goose eggs are still stronger in flavor.
Nevertheless, they have some use for
table purposes, especially In regions
where goose raising Is common. In
South Africa, where ostrich raising Is
an important industry, the eggs are
used as food to some extent ana are
regarded as of excellent quality for
cookery. Their food value is also rec
ognized in regions of the United States
where ostriches are raised.
Eggs of wild birds, once commonly
used, are still eaten. but In limited
way. Flowers eggs are priced by cpl
cures and the eggs of certain kinds OF
sea birds have been used to some ex-
tent
other eggs besides those of birds
are also eaten. Turtles eggs are gen.
orally highly priced and very common
" eaten where they can be obtained.
The eggs of the terrapin are served
with the flesh in some OF the dishes
prepared from 1t. Fish eggs. espe'
cially those of sturgeon. are eaten IN
large quantities, after being preserved
with salt. under the name of caviar
Shad roe is another illustration of the
use of fish eggs.

As TO the dgestibillty of the banana,

Keep Much Longer Than Other Kinds
