EGGs packed down in perfectly dry
road dust or sifted coal ashes is the
best method yet tried. Lined eggs
keep, it is true, but in such a condi-
ton as to be worth less than half the
price of fresh ones. But if packed in
tight vessel, either end up in fine,
close fitting dust, they will keep per-
fectly good six or eight months, and
cannot be told from fresh ones, 10
which they are fully equal in every
respect.

FACTS WORTH KNOWING.

These facts are worth knowing: 1t
is not what people eat, but what they
digest, that makes them strong. 1t is
not what they gain, but what they
save, that makes them rich. It IS not
what they read, but what they remem-
Der, that makes them learned. 1t is
not what they profess, but what they
practice, that fits them properly
for life's mission and destiny. This
is worthy of two readings.

The estate OF the late Mark Hopkins, OF
San Francisco, is legally returned at S1O,-
100000. Two bondsmen were required by
law, who must qualify in twice the value of
the estate or S20,0OOOOo each. The difficulty
Of requiring such enormous bonds was OBJ
waited by depositing In the Bank of Califor
MIA all the bonds OF the Central Pacific, South
ern Pacific and California Pacific Railroads,
receipt being taken therefor. An administra-
trix's bond was then executed for the remain
ing property, with Stanford and Croker as
sureties, each qualifying in the sum Of $1o,-
100000. AS the deceased died without leaving
a will, the widow takes three-quarters of all
the property and the two brothers one-eighth
each

A correspondent Of the Charleston News,
recently writing from Columbia, S. O., men
tions that Mr.. w. E. Dodge, Of New York,
paid not long since $4,000 for the famous
Preston Mansion" Only three or four years
ago it was sold to F. J. Moses for S45OO0, and
even this sum was considered low price at
That time. The bricks alone that surround
the grounds, would, it is said, bring more
money, il sold at present prices, than the
amount paid for the whole property.

The San Francisco Bulletin presents the
following view Of the new silver dollar enter
tanned by the people OF that portion OF Uncle
Sans dominion:
There has been no concert OF action as to
the course to pursue In reference to the new
silver dollar, though there Is q sort of verbal
agreement to treat them for the present as
subsidiary silver. The banks have now to
conduct three accounts with some of their
customers, namely, gold account currency
account, and subsidiary silver account.
They are not prepared to treat
the new dollar as gold, nor do
they wish to open new account. 1t will be
time enough to take formal action when the
dollar gets into general circulation here, II
that should ever happen. 1t is for the bank
ers and merchants to say what part the new
dollar shall play in our currency system. II
admitted to an equality with gold In deposit
and loan accounts the chances are that 1T
will drive out the gold. The Sub-Treasurer
is likely to be the custodian of the coin, and
the banks will use the silver backs. The
movement will be watched with increasing
interest until some definite course be adopted.
It is possible that silver dollar banks may be
the fruit of the new law.
