the war in health and strength, upon

indeed!
Though such severity of food use
may never become necessary or de-
sirable in this country, nevertheless,
with the price Of all food articles
marching upward, more serious
thought must be expended along the
thrifty lines that are so customary in
European countries. In the condi-
tons now prevailing anything that
looks like waste in the preparation of
food or in the service thereof seems
the part of stupidity. Yet the totals
Of the wastage Of good food in this
country would undoubtedly run to
vast figures daily.
Still the desired saving cannot be
accomplished with the old methods
and old ideas in operation. There
must come an entire revision of prac-
tice. Ideas must be readjusted to
the narrowed circle of supply and
made commensurate with the newer
value given to all articles Of necessity
by the requirements of the world.-At-

When you want to know the inside

Don't go to the gossips to learn it,
Don't go to the busy and talkative

That come upon goodness and
spurn it.
The gossips will tell you his faults
and his flaws,
But they never will know of his
kindness,
And they never will tell what he
does for cause,
For the gads are afflicted with

A gossip, the good in a man cannot

He is lost to a kindly intention,
Mems follies and shortcomings only

Consider worth giving a mention,
The gossip will tell you the sins Of

He has fault-finding down to a

But seek the splendors that make UP

You'll find that the gossip has
missed them.

ADVANCED DISCOUNT RATE
BY BANK OF ENGLAND
First Change Since August, 1914.
No Surprise to Money Market
at London.

LONDON, July 13.-The Bank of
England this morning announced an
advance in the discount rate OF the
bank to per cent.
This is the first change since August,
1914, when the rate was reduced to
per cent.
The increase was no surprise to the
money market. as conditions in New
York have rather foreshadowed such
an action, and the advance here Is a
precautionary measure to protect ex-
change and retain balances which

made satisfactory.
With America doing a good deal OF
financing which would ordinarily be
done here, besides finding money for its
own enormous trade expansion. money
is becoming in greater demand, es-
pecially as the coming crops need
financing, and the authorities here
found it necessary to raise the value of
money to well over New York.
The higher rate causes good deal of
disturbance in trade and money circles.
necessitates higher deposit rates, mar
ket discounts and probably treasury
bills. which mean increased cost of
financing the war. At the same time the
per cent bank rate makes London the
dearest center and exchanges probably
will move in favor of this country

general setback in the gilt-edged sec

were better than due and the opening
here was four or five points higher on
scattered covering promoted by the cables
and the appearance of Liverpool buying
orders around the ring for March con-
tract. There may also have been some
nervousness over the disturbance reported
in the Caribbean sea. but the direction Of
it's movement and it's intensity were un-
known, while immediate weather condi-
tions in the south were considered favor
able and the buying was by no means
active or aggressive.
After selling at 1928 on the CALL Octo-
Der eased off to 1895, while December
declined from 1913 to 1911. with the gen.
eral list holding about to 4 points net
higher toward the middle of the morning.

The market continued very quiet dur
ing the middle of the day with traders
apparently waiting for more definite in
formation as to the possibility of another
tropical storm and fluctuations were
somewhat irregular The tone, however.
was steady and prices held about to I
points net higher at midday or around
