A delightful supper was served and everybody enjoyed it. The evening was spent in talking about gold mines, manganese mines, Kao, and other kindred subjects. Those invited were: Postmaster Hill, of Newberry; R. S. Link, W. W. Bradley, C. J. Lyon, J. Foster Barnwell, J. D. Kerr and W. P. Greene. At the close of the discussion on mines and mining, Col. Kerr made a upeech on "The ? i .Poor Man," a suDjeci in whh.ii nc is very much interested. Then Messrs Link and Bradley sang, "Maggie," and a pleasant evening was at an end. A Pleasant Party. Miss Mamie Bowie entertained last Thursday in honor of Mrs. E. B.1 Stack, who is having so many pleas-j ant attentions shown her on her visit home. Miss Bowie had three tables of Rook and the following \ young people played: Misses Caro, Oney and Mamie Morse, lone Smith, Mary Hill, Mary Perrin, Fannie Harris, Mary Quarles Link, Mrs. W. E. Johnson, Mrs. A. L. Harvin and Mrs. H. A. Benton. After the games a salad course was served. A New Club.

The members are: Miss Kate McDill, Miss Amelia Anderson, Miss j Margaret Perrin, Miss Georgia1 Wardlaw, and Miss Sarah Haigler.1 The meetings are hei<J once a week ^ and delightful "goodies" in the way of refreshments are served at each * meeting. rThe reading circle of the Civic Club meets every Friday morning i at the home of Mrs. W. P. Greene, ' and under the management of Mrs.! Horton, is increasing in interest and the benefits to oe derived from J such meetings. The time is half past ten o'clock,1 and the meetings are open to the public. To secure an honor in the Camp Fire Girls, the members must give an entertainment to their camp,' costing only one dollar.

Mr. Craig was reading the evening paper while his wife sat by knitting. "Just listen to this, Debby," he said. "It says here that more than 5,000 elephants a year go to make our piano keys" "Gracious!" cried the wife. 'Ain't it wonderful, Dan, what some animals can be trained to do!"

Farmers, "can" your eggs, Can them while they are plentiful and cheap and hold them until the time when they will be scarce and dear. Such is the advice of F. C. Hare, poultry husbandman of Clemson College, who urges that more South Carolina farmers preserve their eggs this spring. There is a big egg surplus is South Carolina at this particular season. In many communities, farmers are glad to get twenty cents in trade or fifteen cents in cash for a dr>7.en fresh eccs. ^Mr. Hare sue -CO? ,? gests two courses for farmers with surplus eggs. They may either grade and pack their eggs carefully and ship to New York markets, about which Mr. Hare will be glad to give information; or they may preserve the eggs and hold them until such time as they are commanding higher prices. One of the best, simplest, least expensive and most effective methods of preserving eggs is to place them in a solution of water-glass, or sodium silicate. This is a transparent liquid that looks like thin, strained honey, and is used commercially in manufacturing mucilage It covers the shell of an egg with an impervious coating of glue and prevents the entrance into the egg of bacteria-laden air, which would render the egg unfit for food. Eggs treated with water-glass can easily be kept in good condition for nine months, provided they are perfectly fresh when olaced in the solution. Procure a five-gallon glazed earthenware crock with cover, the glazing being to prevent absorptioft of the solution. Buy a quart or more of sodium silicate or water-glass at the druggist's. Thoroughly rinse the inside of the crock and its cover with boiling water to kill any germ life that may be there. Boil three or four gallons of water and allow to cool. When cold, make a mixture of nine parts of this water and one part of the water-glass. Fill the crock two-thirds full with the preserving mixture. As the eggs are gathered daily, put them into the crock. Do not keep eggs several days before putting them in the water-glass, as it is very important that eggs go into the crock the day they are laid. Eggs must on no account be washed, and all vittvnvu ^66? allu bilUSC W11.II VCI J thin shells that might be broken must be discarded. Eggs may be added daily until the crock is about three-fourths full, bearing in mind, however, that at least one inch of liquid must always be above the top layer of eggs. Place the cover on the crock and set in a moderately cool place to prevent excessive evaporation of the liquid. Examine the eggs from time to time and add more boiled water if it is needed to keep the solution an inch or more above the top layer of eggs. For general culinary purposes, water-glass eggs are equal to ordinary new-laid eggs. They may be poached, fried, scrambled or used in baking, just as they come from the crock. However, to boil them, stick a pin into the large end of the shell before heating and thus allow the gas inside a hole by which to escape when heated. The water-glass solution closes the pores of an egg shell and acts as a tin can acts around tomatoes. If an opening is not made, the shell will crack while being heated, for the i expanding gas to escape. Yolks of these eggs "stand up" as do those of new-laid eggs and the whites will beat into a fine froth. i According to Mr. Hare, the cost of preserving eggs in water-glass is about one and one-half cents "per dozen.
