Women who want to get married
are as plentiful IN Berlin as in 9th,
er Capitals. A Berlin merchant
lately advertised for a wife and re-
ceived 277 answers. OF these
eighty-seven were widows varying
in age from twenty-five to fifty-two.
Forty-two Of them had no children
aud lwenty-one possessed fortunes
entirely under their own control.
Four ladies' who had been sepa-
rated from their husbands also
wrote 10 express a desire TO try
their luck at matrimonY a second
time, one of them for a third time.
OF the remaining 1856 only two gave
their age as over Thirty ; eighteen
of them prolessed TO be turned just
sixteen. Seventy one photographs
were inclosed and thirty-one Of
them are SAID to represent remark
ably pretty girls.

HEALTHFUL EFFECT OF ONIONS
1t is a pity that onions have lhe
ordor that they do, for their dlellc
and medicinal qualities are excel
lent. Boiled and roasted onions
are Il good specific for cola on the
chest, a cough, a cold and a clog
ging Of the bronchial tubes. A
medical writer recommends the
eating of young, raw onions by
children three or four times a week,
and of boiled and roasted onions
when they get too strongto be eaten
raw Another writer says that
''during unhealthy seasons, when
diph;heria and like contagious DIS
eases prevail, onions ought TO be
eaten in The spring of the year at
least once II week. The fleet OF
onions is invigorating and pro-
phyletic in the extreme, and one
physician goes SO far rs to say lhat
the eating Of onions has actually
prevented children from having
diphlheria and sc%arlatina.

Obituary.

DIED.-On the 9th instant, in the night
time, in his bed without pang withou,
q groan or struggle, j, N. Brobant pass.
ed to his final rest.
Deceased was representative Of q class
that is rapidly passing away-the pion'
eers of 40. Born in New Orleans in the
state Of Louisiana, inspired by hope and
ambitious for wealth, he came TO wrestle
with the difficulties Of life in the new r.
Dorado. From the time he landed In
what is now the city Of San Francisco te
the day Of his death, he took an active
part in the enterprises for the develop
nnent Of the mining and farming indus
tries Of this coast. He was an active
participant in opening up the celebrated
Comstock vein, of Virginia City. in the
State of Nevada, and had charge of sew
eral of the pioneer mills at that place.
To tell the story of his life or group to
getber the strange events Of his career il
not possible in a brief obituary, simply
desire to bear witness to the uprightness
Of his conduct and his sterling integrity
of character, have known him long
and well, and desire 10 put on record that
he walked uprightly, and ever held fast
the watch-words Of honor, truth and fidel
ity to duty. To do this requires strong
man. Temptations lie thick in the path
way of the pioneer. To resist them sue.
cessfully requires the most powerful forces
Of resolution. He who can accomplish
this is entitled to the highest eulogy, and
to the lasting gratitude Of the living. A
wise man has said; "He that ruleth his
spirit is greater than he that taketh a
city" To good degree he had achieved
this ruling of the spirit. He had fought
life's supremest battle and conquered
those fierce animal impulses and passions
which ultimately enslave and ruin all who
do not overcome them, He has left TO
his family heritage better than riches
a good name. He was kind husband, a
wise parent and a useful citizen. The
loss of such man will be mournsd and
his example should teach us a lesson Of
wisdom. w. q. B.

The New York Board Of Health enior
ces the following excellent regulations Il
prevent the spread Of scarlet teveras vel
as other acute infectious maladies;
"Care Of Patients. The patient should
be placed in seperste room, and no per
son except the physician, nurse or mother
allowed 10 enter the room or to touch the
bedding or clothing used in the sick-room
until they have been thoroughly disin'
fected.
Injected Articles. s.--Ali clothing, bed
ding, or other articles not absolutely
necessary for the use Of the patient should
be removed from the sick-room. Articles
used about the patients, such as sheets,
pillow cases, blankets, or clothes, must
not be removed from the sick-room until
they have been disiniected by placing
them in . tub with the following disin,
fe<ting fluid; eight ounces OF sulphide oi
zinc, ono ounce Of carbolic acid, three
gallons Of water. They should be soaked
In this fluid for at least an hour, and then
placed in boiling water for washing.
"A piece Of muslin one foot square
should be dipped In the same solution
and suspended ia the sick room constant
Iy, and the same should be done In the
hallway adjoining the sick room.
"All vessels used for receiving the dis.
charges Of patients should have some d
the same disiniecting fluid constantly
therein, and Immediately after being used
by the patient should be emptied and
cleansed with boiling water. Water
closets and privies should also be disinfec.
ted daily with the same fluid, or q solu.
tion Of chloride Of iron, one pound to a
gallon Of water, adding one or two ounces
of carboiie acid.
Gan straw beds should be burned.
1T is advised not TO use handkerchief
about the patients, but rather soft rags,
for cleansing the mouth and nostrils,
which should be immediately thereafter
burned.
"The ceilings and side walls OF the
sick room after the removal Of the patient
should be thoroughly cleaned and lime.
washed, and the wood work and floor
thoroughly scrubbed with soap and wa.
ter"
BY such measures Of prevention there
can be no doubt that the number Of cases
Of scarlet fever would be greatly reduced.
