PUTTING cream on onions instead of

no cream--removes much of the strong
flavor, and renders them less likely to
affect weak stomachs unpleasantly.
NEVER use anything but light
blankets as covering for the sick. The

the exhalations from the pores of the

them to pass through. Weak persons

THERE 1s In newark, N. d., stli
more singular case of bullet in the brain
than that of ICarruth, the Vineland
editor. Carruth died ultimately, it is
true, but his immediate recovery after
the shooting and living some eight
months following the attack on his
life constitute a marvel in physical
and medical science. The Newark
case is parallel with Csrruth's, 50 far
as living with bullet in, the brain,
but in other respects it is still more
singular. 1t is that of John Huber,
who, something over a month ago,
lodged bullet in his brain, where it
still remains. 1t appears John had
had some trouble with his wife over a
piece of property bat, worse still, he
was indicted by the Grand Jury for an
alleged attempt to criminally assault
Miss Msuser, his wife's daughter by a
previous husband, and his trial was
set down for October 18th. The Sat
urday night before that day Huber
was SO dependent over his troubles
that he was sneeringly advised to go
home and shoe. himself. On arriving
home he shot himself. sure enough,
with revolver. The bullet entered at
a point three inches from the right
temple. Huber fell to the floor, but
was speedily removed to the German
Hospital. Here his case was regarded
as past hope. The wound was prob
ed, but the bullet could not be found,
and the doctors gave him up. The
Tuesday came, and when Huber's in
dictment was called in Court the
Judge ordered that a nOlie proSeQui
be entered in the case, remarking that
Huber: had doubtless ere that been
called to answer before higher tri-
bunal than that over which the Judge
himself presided. Quite the reverse
proved the fact, however. Huber pull
led through, and, after remaining four
or five weeks in the hospital, finally
recovered SO far as TO warrant his
leaving it last week. As the matter
stands, John has not only recoyed his
usual health, but escaped a vexatious
lawsuit besides. --..,---. f-Dg
