Warned of Eearly Demise
(By Associated Press)
COWES, Isle of Wright, Feb. 26—
Brewers, distillers, bartenders, bar
maids, draymen, innkeepers and oth
ers in the liquor trade live only half
as long as the remainder of the pop
ulation, according to Sir Andrew
Clark, of London, speaking at a tem
perance meeting in Cowes.
The doctor contended that no more
than one teaspoonful of alcohol a
day should be taken by the average
man or woman. He said that seven
out of ten beds in London hospitals
were occupied by victims of drink.
“If there were no alcohol drinking,”
he asserted, “there would be plenty
of beds available and money to sup
port them.
Sir Andrew said that he could tes
tify himself that out of 24 cases ad
mitted to a London hospital on Xmas
23 were drunk.

White Egg Dyed Brown
To Fetck Better Prices
(By Associated Press)
LONDON, Feb. 26.—Spotted eggs
have appeared in the London mar
kets recently in such numbers as
to arouse not only the curiosity of
naturalists, but of food authoralies as
well.
Investigation revealed that the spot
ted eggs had been dipped in a solu
tion of coffee to give them a brown
tint and that in many instances, if
left in the liquid for an insufficient
time, the eggs became spotty after
being withdrawn. It often happens
that eggs left in the coffee solution
long enough for the browning pro
cess to be completed, take on a coffee
flavor.
While in some parts of the United
States wihte eggs bring the best
prices, it is the brown eggs which
for years have been sold in London
at a premium. It is only of late that
poultry dealers have taken to color
ing the shells with the coffee solu
tion.
