1t was not a matter Of surprise in view OF the late
low rates for money in London that the rate of in
terest at the Bank of England was today reduced
TO four per cent. The Bank made gain during the
week of E14SOO0 bullion, the increase to-day on
balance being G12OO0. British consOs were steady,
United States bonds firm. and Erie weak and lower.
The reduction in the bank rate caused correspond

but the market was strong. Gold was lower with
all the forenoon sales at 1l2 l2s the later price
running down to 1l2. On gold loans the rates were

Prepare for Winter.

The cool nights we have had
lately should admonish housekeep.
ers to prepare for winter by put
ting in order their stoves, CRATES,
and other heating apparatus. Chill.
lynornings and evenings are often
dangerous, especially to children
and sickly people, in houses which
have not felt the warmth of fire
during the entire summer. In
many cases slight repairs are
needed before stoves can be used,
and sometimes fiues and chimneys
are out of order. Now is the
ii &c to have those matters attend
cd to, while moderate weather
will admit of the delay. A little
fire occasionally will be found bene-
fetal as well as comfortable in al
most every house, and dwellings
which have been closed all sum-
mer should not only be dried out
by the kindling of firss, but they
should be thoroughly aired when
ever there is fin9 weather before
they are occupied. Neglect of
these precautions may. be danger
Gus and even fatal.

PRESERVING EGGS FOR WINTER.
For family use, in the cold
months of the year, when mo t
kinds of fowls lay few eggs, and
when the price for this desirable
edible, at retail, ranges from fifty
TO sixty cents per dozen, it is well
to have a supply on hand, and we
receive frequent inquiries as to
how egges may be "laid down" or
preserved for this purpose.
Various plans are suggested or
adopted. but all modes heretofore
invented have proved more or
less unsuccessful. A friend who
has practiced the following plan
many years, informs us that he
has had no difficulty through this
simple method, in preserving eggs
the year through, and considers
this the best.
In the summer, after the hatch
ing time is passed, collect from
thirty to fifty dozen (or buy them
fresh and prepare a liquid thus:
One put of common salt, one pint
OF lane. dissolved in four gallons OF
I,oilipg water; let it settle, and |
put the eggs into the liquor in
Stone jars when cold. Cover the
esgs entirely IN the liquid, and
use stone, and not soft orockery-
ware Jars. Thus embedded, eggs
will keep for twelve months, and
come out in good shape, though
ftar all they vii! not be equal to-
new Laid eggs. l.

Coal ASHES ON GoOsEBER-
RIEs. - A New York gardener
has succeeded in keeping his
currant and gooseberry bushes
free from the currant worm by
mulching heavily with coal ASH
es. The ashes have also anoth-
er value not expected, viz. keep
ing the ground cool and moist,
so that even English gooseber-
will bear heavy crops without
sign of mildew. We judge, al
so. that the use of coal ashes
would be good for asters, which
need cool soil also.

Unbolted Wheat.

Near the close of the last cen
iury, when England and France
we're warning with each other, the
British parliament passed law,
10 take effect for two years, that
the. army at home should be sup
piled with bread made from I'M
bottled wheat meal, solely for the
purpose of making the wheat go
as far as possible. At first, the
soldiers were exceedingly displeas-
eli with this kind of bread, and
refused to eat it, but after two or
three weeks they preferred it to
fac flour bread. The result Of
the experiment was that the health
OF the soldiers improved So much
and SO manifestly III the course Of
few months that the officers and
physicians of the army publicly
declared the soldiers were never
before SO healthy and robust, and
the diseases of many kinds had
almost entirely disappeared from
the army. For a while the use.
of this bread was almost universal
in public institutions and in pri.
vate families, and it was pronouu-
ced by civil physicians by far the
most healthy bread that could be
eaten. The testimony of sea cap
tains and whale men is equally in
favor of wheaton bread. "The
coarser the ship bread is, the
healthier is my crew" said d very
intelligent sea captain of over
thirty years experience. The in
ilabitants of WestphaIia, who are
hardy and robust people, capable
Of enduring the greatest fatigues,
are living testimony to the salu-
tary effects of this sort of bread,
and it is remarkable that they are
very seldom attacked by acute te

The most intelligent class Of
people in our large cities have
bread made of unbolted wheat on
their tables every day, and de-
pend upon it; but in country plac
es the idea prevails that it is cheap
and coarse, and that to feed a
guest on Graham bread would be
inhospitable. Nothing can be
further from the truth. Our first
class hotels have regularly on
their bills of fare cracked wheat" /
and some advanced teachers of /
hygiene are beginning to hope
that the reign of fine flour is pass
ing away. OF oat.meal as a diet,
one of our writers say: "Amerl /

diet. As a food, the merits Of
which have stood the test of CEN
turtles, and which is designed 10
promote the sanitary condition of
The nation, by laying the founda-
lion for more ready and vigorous
frames for the coming generation,
let US regard its general adoption
as an article of diet as nothing
short of a national good. It's
