1t is not well always to look on the shady
side of affairs. There are men who came
into existence under q shadow, and the sha-
dow has dogged their lives, and all that -
bright and pure and beautiful takes the
sombre hue of their own fancies. Their re-
ligion consists ofbemoaning the evils of the

of good. and in regarding all home evils and
foreign complications rs, signs of the times"
They are the Elijahs, who retire into the

NUTRITIvE QUALITIES OF THE ONION.
The onion deserves notice as an article
of great consumption in this country, and it

il forms one of the common and universal
supports of lie. 1t is interesting, therefore.
to know that, in addition to the peculiar
flavor which first recommends it, the onion
is remarkably nutritious. According to
analysis, the dried onion root contains from
twenty-five to thirty per cent. Of gluten. 1t
ranks, in this respect, with the nutritious pea
and the grain of the east. 1t is not merely
AS "A relish therefore, that the wayfarin &
Spaniard eats his onion with his humble
crust of bread, Us he sits by the refreshing
spring; it is because experience has long
proved that, like the cheese of the English
