Till: QrAKEHIECC«» A Quaker grocer iu a eoantry village lcvame uelork>ns far Milling agfis. The v Tillage gossips were ready to testify that he bought large and fine looking eggs, and where lie could find so many small sized eggs as he daily sent out to cus tomers was a mystery they could not lathom. There were two mystarious looking holes in his counter about the mzc of an egg, and curiosity was excited to the highest pitch to ascertain what use Jhey *rere pjrt to. The en?y answer am body could get from the old man, when queltloited concerning the n** of these holes, was: 'My frienrt, if 1 tell thee the truth, it woaM not benefit me nor thee, and I don't wish to tell a Wso hood. It is & pity lying is a &», ffcr it conies In so easy ia trade/ At last, it was. resolved by somo of the spinsters te watch his Actions throng fi the cracks of the shutters after he had closed the store lor the night, ar.rt thus endeavor to find out their use. This resolution was carried into execution and the ladic* cangju the grocer passing cgg9 through ths ltolea by the light of a penny dip. All those that passed through the smaller hole he placed in one basket; and those that passed through the larger one ho put in another, and all that would not pass through either he placed iu a tin pan and took them to his | house. D I ' On Lis way thither, he heard the rust' ling of the women's dresses, and be saw that he was eaugbl; so he called them to him, and in the blandest manner, ■aid• i ' ' "Sisters, ye have given vonrsclver ■|v , > i> much tronble to appease thy curiosity,, and therefore I will explain all to ye. Ye see, I sort my eggs into three size* by meanß of these boles. The largest I use in tny own family; the next size sell a half-penny cheaper on the dozen than any of my neighbors, for cash; the sit sil ent I send to those who will b)jy no oth er way than on predfl." \ * The ladies were satisfied with the les« son in trade, an tbC/news abroad.
