Good for the Children,

A prominent Buffalo physician is
an enthusiast on the subject of on
ions. He feeds them to his children
daily, says they are the best medi-
cine tor preventing colds, and adds.
Feed onions, raw, boiled or baked
to the children three or four times a
week, and they'll grow up healthy
and strong. No worms, no scarlatina
or diphtheria where children eat
plenty of onions every day." When
this regime is followed kissing may
be dispensed with Buffalo Letter.

TRADE with the South Americas
and the Central American nations
is very much to be desired. 1t can
be secured by wisely adapting our
selves to the situation and making
with them such trade concessions
as will be found mutually advantage
Gus. That this will be done is hard
ly to be doubted. When did the
present secretary of state ever neg
lect any opportun ity for strengthen
ing the influence and extending the
trade lines of the United States to
embrace all that was possible on the
American continent. The principles
of the Monroe doctrine are of vast
application, and when applied by a
wise states manship cannot but be
all-em bracing in their results. 1t is
most fortunate thing that these
United States are to-day under re-
publican administration; no less so
that the state departement is con-
signed to so true an American as

A Simple Test for Fresh Eggs,

This method is based upon the de-
crease in the density Of eggs as they
grow old. Dissolve two ounces of
kitchen salt, SAYS the account, in a
pint of water. When fresh laid egg
is placed in this solution it will
descend to the bottom of the vessel,
while one that has been laid on the
day previous will not quite reach the
bottom. If the egg be three days old
it will swim in the liquid; if it is
more than three days old it will float
on the surface, and project above the
latter more and more as they grow
older.

officials, will be followed by an at

"while there Is no doubt that many of

avoided by little care on the part of both

The two money snstchers who worked
their way into the good will of Fred Gleim
last week as we'll as his pocket book, were
in Ottawa for short time and registered at
the Clifton as B. F. Chase, St. Louis, and T.
Cook, Chicago. Thursday morning they
left the hotel and went to Fuller's livery
stable and hired horse and buggy. They
had the appearance of being commercial
men, and Mr.. Fuller had no suspicious re-
garding them, and when, after reasonable
time they did not return, he concluded his
property was stolen. On Saturday, howev-
er he received a letter from Princeton, con-
tanning ten dollar note, stating also that he
could find his horse and buggy at stable in
Princeton, and signed Chase. Mr.. Fuller
left for Princeton at once and found his

The Electric Railway.

Cars have now been running two weeks
on the north, and west side lines of the
Electric Railway, and during this time it
has been keeping the wolf from the door at
the rate Of about ninety dollars per day, or
little over FIVE hundred dollars per week.
Some difficulty was experienced in the
entering upon q regular schedule time. One
driver would become impressed with the
idea that he had been ordered to run on
some other fellows time and then there
would be grand circus with a menagerie
attached. Some of the drivers had blood in
their eyes during the entire first week.
Then, when they became Strengthened out,
the cedar ties at the curves on Elm street,
refused to hold the rails and every fellow
who ran his car around the curve was forced
to coll upon the construction gang to place
his. vehicle back upon the track. This is
why the people were disappointed who
wanted to ride to the cemetery on Sunday.
