The Dictator Who Was Misunderstood BY BERTRAM LEIGH. , NEW METHOD OF PACKING E GGS. I believe I have discovered the one and only method of packing eggs. The use of water-glass—or sodium sili- cate—$n very satisfebtory• .Egge packed in salt will keep for months, but both water -glass and salt are more or less expensive. . My plan calls for the use of ,neither one. ' I have tried this plan for two seasons and have found it both satis- factory and economical: I dip the eggs to be packed into boiling water twice, then wrap them in small pieces of newspaper and pack—small end down—in egg crates. I use a per- forated spoon for the dipping. This spoon will hold two eggs. I plunge the eggs quickly into boiling water, then lay them, gently on a dough board which has been covered with a tea -towel. By the time the last eggs 9 have been dipped, the first ones have PART II. I Both men dismounted.

"Joyce!" protested Mrs. Falloden. "How can you speak like that? The whole world is ringing with John's praises." "Then it is all to the good that he should learn that the world isn't un- animous. We Socialists just hate all he has done, don't we, Mr. Sloane?" Sloane nodded. "Yes, Mr. Malleson," said he. "I ar?i sorry, but I am afraid we do." When Malleson, in his imperturb- able coolness—the coolness which had been wont to judge the psychological moments of battles to a nicety—con- sidered that the tension had been suf- ficiently prolonged, he drew his cigar- ette case from his pocket.. "These are your favorites, Joyce," he said, and leaned over his chair, his open case, with its neat double row of white cork -tipped cigarettes, tempt- ingly in his hand.

A little over a mile further on he came up with Joyce, returning home- ward from a tennis party at the Heul- ings'. Onee more dismounting, he put' his arin within hers, letting the train- ed, docile animal—his battle horse, Childe Harold—this time follow at hjs heels. "I have just seen Sloane," he said.
