PUTTING AN EGG INTO A BOTTLE.
EDITED BY UNCLE TOBY.
An egg in a bottle is a great curiosity, and will be a wonderful surprise till the secret of its accomplishment is learned. To do this, soak an egg in strong vinegar. In pro cess of time the shell will soften, and yet will resist considerable pressure, so it may be extended lengthwise, and inserted in a moderately wide-mouthed bottle. Wash it by pouring cold water upon it, and it will soon resume its former shape and hardness.
