Most egea with which} we are familiar are laid by hens, but (his was a particular egg, laid) particularly by a hen. People who were present at the final fate of thie) @ae say that the hen must have been particular about laying it, as no) other egg they ever met possessed such a redendancy of concentrated potentiality. There's a shorter and uglier word with which they really describe the power of this egg, but we're some dog on literary eclat, when we try Once upon a time, we said, The exact date, within a century or two, is whoily immaterial, according to those who were tn at the finish This cee would have been just as good and no worse if laid in the} pleiocene, the dinosaurus or the thrologdite age. Suffice it that this egg was laid by a hen and, in April of the year of our Lord 1912, cane foto the possession of one Francis T. McNeill, a promising young bust hess man at Redding, California. This egg was very precious (o Mr, McNelil and so he even carried it to the services conducted by Rev. Glon MeWilllams, an evangelist) of wondrous power from Los Angeles, who was painting the sins of Red: ding sinners with a master hand. We imagine that some of McWilliam pictures fitted MoNeill’s sing pretty close Anyhow, at a favorable use in Rev. McWilliams’ word painting, Mr. McNeill, elther as a con: jon of ain or as a spontaneous contribution of pigment for painting, rose and cast the subject of this story full at the Rev. MeWilllams. | Whereupon, each sinner of that concourse of sinners, his wife, his man servant and bis maid servant, arose, went home and turned on the hot Water for a bath, while Rev. McWilliams burst Into what the police authorities who have him im charge declare to be foul and profane lan ‘Orétaastly, you wouldn't expect this from a preacher, but we tried to impress upon you, early in this story, that this was no ordinary egg! Moreover, such was the potentiality of this egg that the police, b ving | been introduced to {t in a circumambinet way, arrested Mr, McNetll and had him fined for casting that egg.

The following observations occur to me: A vast number of little retailers scattered over the olty perform a service which a small fraction of thelr number could do at a small fraction of the expense, were the business they do concentrated at a central point, The old public market system, modernized Ike that established by the city in Pike Place is pregnant with the solution of the high cost of living here.
