S m Young Folks [BABY'S GREAT DANGER DURING HOT WEATHER Phoebe. Little Phoebe Grey had come to spend a week on Uncle Daniel's farm. Shff had always lived in the city, and td^fter the farm seemed wonderful. One morning her Aunt Alice gave her two big cookies, an* told her to play outdoors until dinner time. As the little girl walked down through the orchard she heard a clear voice call, "Phoebe! Phoebe!" She stood quite still and listened. "I guess some little girl wants to play with me," she thought. So she answered, answered, "Where are you?" "Phoebe! Phoebe!" called the sweet voice. "I guess she's playing hide and seek with me. I must try-to find her." For a while the little girl looked about happily; but when she found no one, she grew tired, and called, "Come here I will give you a cooky!" No little girl came, but the sweet voice still called, "Phoebe! Phoebe!" Aunt Alice was writing a letter when Phoebe hurried into her room, and said, "0 Aunt Alice, there's a little girl out in the orchard calling me! I can't find her. She just calls and calls, but she won't come to me. I told her I would give her a cooky if she'd stop hiding and come and play with me. Please come out and help me find her." "There is no little girl who lives near enough to come here all alone. What made you think there was a little girl if you could not see her?" "Because she called me. She says 'Pheobe! Phobe!"' Aunt Alice laughed, and said, "I think that I know your little friend; I will help you find her. You will have to be quite still and look carefully, carefully, for it is not a girl, but a bird. She calls me 'Phoebe' so much of the time that I think she has a nest near, for I hear her everyday." "A bird! "Why, Aunt Alice, I didn't know birds could talk! She calls my name just as plain as could be! It did not sound like a bird, at all." When they reachd the orchard no little bird could they see. They walked cautiously about and peeped : under the leaves and shrubs. ! "We shall have to wait until anoth-! er day," Aunt Alice said. ( They started back towards the : house.

As the fSrice of eggs drops during the warm summer weather, and it becomes a question whether much profit may be derived from their sale in the regular way, the wise poultry grower will consider how he may keep up the price for what he sells, or preserve preserve his stock as it accumulates, in such a way that he will obtain a much larger price and considerably more than pay him for the trouble to which he has to bring about this result. result. In the first place any eggs required for sale as food products, and not for breeding purposes, should be infertile. infertile. Fertile eggs become unfit for human food almost as quickly as milk when subjected to the same temperature, temperature, and when we consider how carefully our health departments safeguard the sale of this product, it is some wonder that some method is not devised to absolutely prevent the marketing during the hot months of eggs less likely to spoil than is now in practice. It is a mistaken idea that eggs have to be put into an incubator incubator or under a hen to start to hatch. The fact is that the germs begin to grow just as soon as it is subjected to a temperature of 90 or above. Whether this be behind the kitchen stove, or on a hot country road en route to market, on a platform platform at. the depot awaiting shipment, in the country store waiting for the usual twenty or thirty cases before sending out, in the pantry waiting until until the case is filled, or when you have a chance to go to town, or in the house under broody hens, when they are not gathered frequently. Why produce'such a perishable article article at all when the remedy is so simple, simple, just by "Swatting the Rooster," or removing him from the pens from which the eggs to sell come. An infertile infertile egg will keep so much better than a fertile one that'there is hardly any comparison between them. Infertile Infertile eggs could be placed in an incubator incubator for twenty-one days,--the hatching time,--and used for cooking purposes, and it is doubtful if they would be found in the least objectionable. objectionable.

Have at least two Inches of liquid covering the top of the eggs. Limed eggs can be discerned by the roughness of the shell. Before boiling boiling eggs that have been preserved in the foregoing ways they should be punctured with a needle, otherwise they will be apt to crack as soon as placed in hot water, owing to the pores being closed and no outlet allowed allowed for the air in the egg. Eggs can be preserved for several months in dry salt. Bran can also be used with fair results, but neither of these methods is as satisfactory a#3 the first two mentioned. There must always be at least two inches covering covering the eggs with these two methods also. Cold storage is undoubtedly the best and most practical method of preserving preserving eggs in large quantities in a commercial commercial way. As the processes by which a low temperature can be maintained maintained for an indefinite period have become more and more improved the greater has been the number of eggs stored, until the cold storage business has reached such proportions that it has a considerable influence >on the price of eggs, tending to lower it in winter and raise it in summer. . A record of twenty crates of eggs stored last season in Buffalo will give some idea of the profit in this method. method. These eggs were shipped in when they were selling for table use at 17 cents per dozen. This would make the total $102.00. These same eggs were sold in December at an average of thirty cënts à dozen, which made a total of $180.00, or a difference of $78.00 in favor of cold storage. The cold-storage- plant charged two cents a dozen for the period, which made a total of $12.00 for storage. storage. To this is to be added $6.20 ex- pressagé and the commission man's charge of $12.00, making a total of expenditures of $30.20 and leaving $47.80 clear and above what the cost of storage and other expenses amounted to. There is no question that storage in this way properly handled is very profitable. How a Siek Woman flan Regain Health READ THIS VERY CAREFULLY. "For years I was thin and delicate.

In life we have to take risks--that is part of the game. And no cue can play his part manfully who is ret prepared to do this, when it is reasonable reasonable and neediul so to do, when the chances of reward or benefit are sufficiiutly in jig's favour, or when it would be pusillanimous or cowardly not to face the music. The wealthy travellers on the unfortunate Lusia- tania doubtless viewed matters in this light--the chances semed greatly greatly in their favor. And, however bitterly bitterly we deplore the sad end of so many valuable lives, we cannot but profoundly admire their pluck, and ever regard with the deepest respect their brave constancy and determination determination not to be frightened out of what they had resolved to do. But for all that it is unwise and even foolish to take risks that involve no appreciable reward in case of success, success, and that are easily avoidable. Andre went out to seek the North Pole.

Consequently Consequently he and his comrades were never seen again. That was brave indeed, indeed, but at the same time it was a utter fool-hardiness. This may seem a long way form the titular subject of otir article. But so many burns and scalds are the result of sheer carelessness and neglect -- particularly where young children are concerned.

The second coach in the train is the one reserved by the Kaiser for his personal quarters, and it contains a salon, bedroom, dressing-room, bathroom, bathroom, and sleeping apartments for his bodyguard. The salon is panelled in the wood of an ancient cedar tree taken from Mount Lebanon, the gift of ex-Sultan Abdul Hamid of Turkey. The floor is of black wood taken from the piles of a wooden bridge built across the Rhine by Julius Caesar in the year 66 B.C., v/hile the ceiling is decorated with a design representing the six great rivers of Germany. | The windows of the salon are pro- S tected by thick bars, and armed sen- j tries stand at the doors of the apartment apartment night and day.
