Hard Boiled Euus.

J. Lester Hyman, a farmer near LO-
gansport, says that on Easter morning
ne heard one of his Black Langshan
hens cackle in the hennery on his
farm. He hurried to the place, and
there on the floor lay a nice brown
egg. 1t was still warm. The man pro-
,eeded to the house to fry the egg for
breakfast
Giving il to his wife, who was at
The stove frying other eggs, he asked
that this fresh one be cooked for him.
On attempting to crack the egg to
place the contents in the skillet it was
found to be hard-boiled. Hyman's
hopes of having a hen that laid hard
boiled eggs were shattered when his
wife remembered that she had just
placed egg shells taken from boiled
eggs in the hennery and that the hard
Ooiled egg found had undoubtedly been
eft among them.-IndianapoIls News.

the beauty prize in any show If she was
handing out the blue ribbon.
And the man has exactly the saIno re-
action towards his wife and children. lie,
| too, had been wondering which one OF the
| tifty-seven different varieties OF fools ne
| had been when he let himself into lie
of domestic slavery, but the absent treat
| ment has cured his case OF spleen, and as
he takes his wife and children into his
arms, his fetters are no longer iron, but
gold.
Why, it's absent treatment that enables
Ills to speak only good of the dead. Why
you even love your -inlaws after they are
tucked away in the cemetery. A woman
who has fretted her very life out of herself
because her mother-in-law was always
shopping around spying into the garbage
can, and asking what everything cost,
and interfering with the way she raised the
children, will sit up and tell you what a
good, kind, noble old woman her mother
ln-law was, and how devoted she was to
the baby, and how helpful around the
house, once the old lady is dead.
Why not get this slant on the people who
get on our nerves while they are still liv-
ing? It's easy enough to do. We've only
to get away from thep for while. and
let absent treatment get in its great and
perfect work on the nerves that have been
fretted raw Its only when we are too
closeto people that we see all of their little
imperfections and peculiarities. When we
are far away we get the broad view that
takes in their good qualities also.
And oh, my sisters, | urge you to try
the absent treatment on your work,
whether it bc housework, or some trade or
profession. There comes a time In our
life when We loathe the thing we have to
do and feel that we will die if we have
to make one more round of the treadmill.
We can see nothing but the maddening
monotony of our job There is nothing
of interest or SAVIOR left in it, and we could
cheerfully take sledge hammer and
smash our gas steve or desk and choke
our children or employer to be rid of them.
There is just one thing that will save us
in this crisis. Take the absent treatment.
Go away, and stay away, until your home
looks to you like paradise on earth. and
your desk calls to you with n siren voice
you cannot resist.
Try the absent treatment on all yor
worries Its the one sovereign cure that
never fails.
