GIVE THE CHILDREN ONIoNs.-A mother thus
writes: Once week invariably-and it was gen.
orally when We had cold meat, minced-I gave
the children dinner which was hailed with de-
light, and looked forward to-this was dish of
boiled onions. The little things knew not they
were taking the best of incidence for expelling
what most children suffer from, worms. be-
leve mine were kept free by this remedy alone.
Not only boiled onions for dinner, but chives al
so they were encouraged to eat with their bread
and butter, and for this purpose they had tufts
of chives in their little gardens. 1t was a medi-
cal man who taught me to eat boiled onions as a
specific for cold in the chest. He did not know
at the time, till told him, that they were good
for ANYTHING else.

CMBRELLAs.-Ify your umbrella be wet, do not

~. If You do the whalebones acquire q particu-
lar set, which it is almost impossible to obvate
they become permanently bent, in consequence
of the shrinking of the cloth while drying, and
give the umbrella, when furled, a bullying and

FOREIGN journal points out mistake which
very frequently is made in removing grease spots
with benzine or spirits of turpentine-the solv-
ent is applied with sponge or a piece of rag.
This tends inevitably to spread the grease. The
stained portions of the garment should be laid
fiat between two sheets of soft blotting paper,
and the upper sheet well soaked with benzine
1t this way, if sufficient time be given the whole
of the fatty matter becomes not only dissolved,
but absorbed by the paper.

SOMETHING WORTH KNowING.-An exchange
tells us the following: "If you want nice, fresh,
ripe tomatoes until Christmas, take your vines
having green tomatoes on, before they are much
injured by frost, up by the roots and place them
in the cellar and the tomatoes will ripen as well
as though they were in the sun. We know this
to be fact, for we have tried the experiment
ourself. Last winter we had tomatoes ripened
in this manner until Christmas" Let some of
our readers try the experiment

THE Shelbyville (Ky.) Republican says that

COOKING CABBAGE.-I will give you my way
OF cooking cabbage: Take two slices of meat OF
common size for frying, cut in squares of one

in five eggs, and stir it until done; then put in
the cabbage chopped fine, and stir it so it win
not burn; pepper and salt to taste; this is
enough to make 3 quarts

ONE of the best remedies for neuralgia we
know of, is the oil of peppermint, applied to the
affected part with a camel's hair brush. Do not
get it into your eyes, it would be pretty sew ere
yet allow child to find it, as it would act as
poison, taken internally. It will sOothe pain
almost instantly, and few applications about
the temples and the cords of the face, will, we
doubt not, effect a cure.

do: you can swap little Tommy for a gun"

WE learn of a few parties who intend sowing
rye on unbroken sod this Fall; and hope it may
prove a successful undertaking. This kind of
farming has been tried in different parts of the
State; and it is said TO have produced fair crops
and as thoroughly rotted the sod as if it had been
plowed before sowing. We think this sort of
farming might do where buffalo grass prevailed,
and might do on other sods if the grass could
be burned off.-BelleriIle Telescope

Where a child's ear becomes painful, as it often
does everything should be done to soothe it, and
all strong, irritating applications should be
avoided. Pieces of hot onion or fig should not be
put in; but warm flanDels should be apple ed
with poppy fermentation, if the pain does not
soon subsde. How much children suffer from
their ears-unpitied because unknown-it would
probably wiring the hearts of those who love
them suddenly to discover. 1t is often very
hard, even for medical men, to ascertain that the
cause of a childs distress is seated in the ear,
and frequently a sudden discharge from it, with
a cessation of pain, first reveals the secret of a
mysterious attack, which really has been an in
flammation of the drum. The watchfulness of :
parent, however, would probably suffice to de-
tect the cause of suffering, if directed to this
point as well as to others. If children cry habit
ually when their ears are washed, that should
not be neglected; there is, most likely, some
cause of pain. Many membranes are destroyed
from discharges which take place during "teeth-
ing" Whenever there is discharge of matter
from the ear, it would be right to pour in warm
water night and morning, and so at least to try
and keen il clean

doctors have never differed.
l. Walk, in all kinds of weather, two or three
times day. IL too weak for this, begin with the
saddle.
2. Hang by the hands in rings suspended from
the ceiling above the door, swing backward and

the walls of the chest is very remarkable have

s. Wash the entire skin with tepid water and
good neutral soap every morning, on returning

New York, Nov. 3O.-Gold is higher
by reason of the renewal of rumors
about war with Spain.
A Herald special from London says
that the Royal Geographical Society
met again last night and commended
Mr.. Stanley for his successful Africa n
explorations. The speakers declared
that there was nothing in the gift of
the Spciety too high for his reward
and that he deserved a reception on
his return, like that accorded to
Speake and Grant in the old BurlIng-
ton House, when they returned after
the discovery of the Victoria Nyanza.
Charles O'Connor, yesterday, was
able to take a little nourishment, his
stomach not rejecting food, as on pre-
vious days. For four days before Sun
day he had been so weak that water
was the only thing which his system
would retain. The precise nature of
his disease has not been determined,
but it is thought to be paralysis of the
stomach. His physicians thought,
last night, that there was no doubt but
that he would live until to-day, and
this evening they will be able to say
what the probabilities of his recovery
are. They have little hope however,
that he will get well, and his advanced
age greatly diminishes the prospects of
his restoration to health.
