Kternal Sin" on presents the
dramatic star, Flor
ence Reed, in a magnificent produc
itinn of "The Eternal Sin," founded on
Victor Hugo's "Lueretia Borgia." Al

Woman Uses Sulphur
in Preserving Fruits
A tested receipt for the preserva
tion of apples all winter for cooking
purpose, has been submitted by Mrs.
George Plumadore. Her method
follows:
"Peel the apple, core It, slice it
thin or in quarters, and put it In a
basket. Hang this basket In a bar
rel; burn sulphur underneath, one
cup full of sulphur to one-half bush
el of apples, until sulphur is con
sumed. Then put the apples In a
stone Jar, with a paraffin cloth over
the top, and they will keep fresh,
with all their flavor. Pears and
peaches may be treated the same
way."

Huge Egg Deposits
in Cold Storaf
Dairy and Food Commission
James Foust has issued a summa
of the reports of the seventy-oi
cold storage warehouses In Pennsy
vania which certified their conten
on JUne 30 and it shows holdings
16,577051 dozens of eggs, aguir
15,475,440 dozens at this time In
year and 18,800,169 dozens on tl
same day in 1915. The holdings
eKgs are estimated to be worth ov
$5,000,000 and will probably !
worth more when they are put i

The summary on eggs is in wtri
ing contrast to the showing of Man
