Medicinal Value of Onions

Those who are in the habit of in
dulglng in raw onions, says medi-
cal man, may be consoled for the So
cial disadvantages which ensue by
the fact that onions are about the
best nervine known. No medicine
Is really so eflicacious in case of ner-
vous prostration, as they tone up a
worn-out system IN a very short
time. Their absorbent powers are
also most invaluable, especially in
times of epidemic. 1t has been re-
peatedly observed that an onion
patch IN the immediate vicinity of o
house acts as a shield against the
pestilence which is very apt to pass
over the inmates of that house.
Sliced onions in sick room absorb
all the germs and prevent contagion.
During an epidemic the confirmed
onion eater should, however, eschew
his usual diet, as the germs of dis
ease are present in the onion and
contagion can easily result.-P(olC-
man.

What the Farmer Should Know.

Row let US take backward glance
at the mistakes of the year that has
passed, in order to steer clear of
them during the coming season.
How much money did you make last
year?
A few farmers could answer that
question to the dollar, but a large
proportion of them only know that
they either made bare living, or
run IN debt. In such an uncomfor-
table contingency a carefully kept
expense account would aid you ma
terially in finding the big leaks. Per-
haps you are managing dairy farm
and sell your milk to the factories.
How much profit are you making out
of the enterprise? Do you know
whether you are making any profit
or not? 1t is a capital idea to keep
"bank" account with each cow,
that you may know how many un-
profitable ones there are in herd.
In these days of small margins
and close competition, man can no
more farm profitably without keep
ing books in some form, than large
manufacturer can get along without
his salarled accountant. We weuld
say to those who have never tried
the thing, begin at once, and keep a
record of everything in your farm
transactions during the coming year.
Set down the cost of every new tool,
seed, fertilerizers, amount paid for
labor, transportations and all other
expenses, and do not forget to add
in your taxes.
Be able to tell to cent the mon
ey received from the sale of stock
and products, and at the end of the
year see if you have made anything
above day wages, and living for
your family.
If you have not accomplished any
thing else, when Christmas comes
you will have acquired valuable
pointers" for next years opera
tions.
Many farmers at the end of the
year count up che cash on hand and
say, have made so much this sea-
son, and yet they cannot exactly tell
whether every dollar has cost them
four to obtain it or have made that
much profit over and above capital
invested. But some will say 81
have not the education to Keep
books,' and to them 1 would say, an
ignorant man has mo more business
to engage in ..6arming expecting to
make profit, than he would to fill
college professorship or the office of

Brace Up.

You are feeling depressed, your
appetite Is poor, you are bothered
with headache, you are fidgetty, ner-
vous, and generally out OF sorts,
and want to brace up. Brace up,
not with stimulants, spring medi-
cines, or bitters, which have for
their basis very cheap, bad whisky,
and which stimulates you for an
hour, and then leaves you IN worse
condition than before. What you
want is an alternative that will purify
your blood, start a healthy action
of Liver and Kidneys, restore your
vitality, and give renewed health
and strength. Such a medicine you
will find in Electric Bitters. and only

Mrs. Martha Callahan, wife of

cent, who has been very sick with
pneumonia, but who Is now conva-
lescent.
John II. Withers, an old and res.
pected citizen who resides near
WestvIlle, after long and severe
sickness of about seven months. de-
parted this life on Jan. 16, 1888.
Mr.. Withers was born in Madison
county, Ky, on Jan. 13, 1888. His
parents moved to Missouri in 1855
and settled in Charlton county in
1897, and he has been a resident of
this county more than 80 years.
He served in the Confederate army
four years. He has been married
twice, and was married to his. pres
ent wife in Illinois, on Dec. &c, 1869.
He made a profession of religion
and Joined the Cumberland PresbY-
terian church, when a young man,
but as he confessed en- his death bed
that he was led astray to not live
at all times up to his profession, yet
he deeply repented, and now felt
that he believed and trusted alone
10 his Savior. Your correspondent
visited HIM few days before his
death and he told her that all his
hope and comfort was IN his Savior.
He leaves a wife and one child, q
son, years old, and an adopted
chIld his sister-in-law whom he raised
from infancy. Mrs. Withers wishes
through the columns cf your paper
to express her gratitude to the many
friends for their kind attention and
benevolence to her husband during
his long illness.

THE unusually large number of
young men who have been commit
ted to the state insane asylum of
Michigan in the last year and half,
has led to the discovery that almost
all of them smoked cigarettes to ex-
cess. In many cases it is said to be
absolutely certain that cigarette
smoking was the cause of the insani-
ty. 1T is also reported that a prom
lnent society young man IN Detroit
was made deaf by cigarette smoking.

AFEw years ago congress repealed

A FEW years ago congress repealed
the duty on quin ne, which, under a
system of taxation which we are told
results IN lower prices, was selling
at the time for about 81 an ounce.
1t is now selling for so cents an
ounce, and has been selling as low
as &c cents. According to the logic
of the protectionists, the removal of
the duty would have increased the
price, but 1t didn't. The incident
is an interesting indication of what
might follow in the case of the re-
moval of the duty on other articles,
and congress would do well to graft
fy the very general curiosity as to
the effect On the price on Goa! of the
abolition of the tariff tax on that i'm
portant article of consumption.-H2ti-

CLEVELAND is not an accident as

his helps him and his party. Fora

and foamed over the return OF the
rebel flags and did not get a vote

the whole business to his advantage
and made himself solid with the
South for denomination.

Judge Norton Not a Candidate.

DEAR SIR: Your letter received and
In answer have to say that / have
been placed, not by what 1 have
said. but by what l have not said, In
the attitude of being a candidate for
the Democratic nomination for the
office of governor, and contesting
the honor of receiving the nomina-
ton with other gentlemen who are
seeking it. | am convinced that no
one occupying a place on the su-
preme bench should, while occupy
ing it, engage in a scramble, or, to
use a milder but less expressive
word, contest for political office.
Acting upon this conviction / have
not since l have been a member of
the supreme court participated in
politics, except in 90 far as good cit
izenship required me as a voter to
participate. Any other course than
the one above indicated would SUBJ
iect such officer to criticism, cause
his judicial acts to be mlsinterpreted
and misunderstood, and the charge
to be preferred that they were infu-
enced by political considerations.
L think it was both an oversight
and mistake that the constitutional
convention failed to insert a clause
in the constitution declaring that no
judge of court of record should be
eligible to any political office within
the gift of the people during his Off
cial term.
