"Receiving an exceptionally choice lot of eggs and having no setting hen at hand, I recalled having heaid that eggs varnished and buried in sawdust, would keep indefinitely, so I carefully coated the lot with shellac and stored them a way. "Some weeks after a setting hen ap peared and producing the varnished eggs 1 placed them carefully under her.
