you would blow his brains out. For

The Praises of the Humble Onion

They are invaluable for soup.
They are blood purifiers. A liberal
use OF them is recommended as a
cure for boils, and they tend to make
the complexion clear and the face
free from pimples. The children of
those n~ationalities who eat them
most largely moticeably escape that
bane OF childhood worm. Their Use
is beneficial to the digestive organs
they are excellent in diseases OF the
bladder and Kidneys, are OF benefit in
liver complaints, and their power for
good in lung troubles Is we'll known.
They are the best cure for insom-
mia.
a favorite remedy for q cough is a
syrup made by alternating slices OF
raw onion with white sugar. Cut a
large onion, horizontally, into thin
slices, put one in a dish, sprinkle sug-
ar over it, then add another slice OF
onion, building it up thus by layers
until all arc used. Cover the dish.
About once in three hours a teas.
spoonful OF syrup will have formed,
which should he taken at intervals of
about this length, throughout the
day.
Hot poultices made OF onions and
mixed with goose oil, have been used
advantageously in Group. Roasted
onions are used sometimes bound to
the feet and placed upon the chests of
the little ones suffering from the effects
OF Il cold. Placed raw upon a cloth,
then beaten to a pulp, %bandaging
with this the throat and we'll up over
the ears, they have given relief in
cases OF diptheria.-Good H~ousekeep-

NOT TO BE TOLD QUIETLY,
A Boston Maids Kindly Intention
Thwarted by a Defect of Hearing.

by a Defect of Hearing.
She was amiddle-aged womand dress.
ed i'll black, and wearing eyeglasses
says the Boston Journal. Shecarried
both her head aud her bundles in q
way that indicated self-reliance, and,
having failed to find Il sea in the Old
Colony a she entered first. although
the train was now in motion SHE
bravely crossed the platform and
went into the next ar.
A masculine eye would probably
have noticed nothing peculiar i'm her
personal appearance, but nearly
every woman that she passed noticed
that the newcomer still wore Il
draped o%verskirt and that this
part OF her attire, instead of having
h necessary symmetry, was hitched
around on one side in Il way that was
not only questionable, but entirely
ungraceful and mbecomlng. Woman
like, they wanted to tell lleroi it.
She had found Il seat, had seated
herself, and was calmly depositing her
bundles by her side, when II very
pretty girl in the seat lust behind
leaned forward and said. i'm n low
tone:
"1beg your pardon, madam, but
something seems to he wrong with
r0t,r N,.avo I'M. cl.i,t " ..,.lt -
one side in some way, and
Hey" said the woman, sharply.
The girl repeated i'm substance
what she had said before, and added
humbly: 81 thought yon would like
to know, so as to fix it before you 90
on the street again.
The woman didn't understand. She
turned around, and Northumberland
back, in order to direct her gaze
through her glasses, carefully scrutin-
lzed the young lady's features. Then,
in a loud tone, with due d~cliberution,
she said: ''I-don
you"
The young lady blushed. This re.
reptlon OF her we'll meant information
was than she had bargained for,
and her voice, though subducd; was
very distinct. The passengers near
by We're becoming interested.
81 don't want to seem rude, but
your skirt is somewhat one-sided."
The woman had a puzzled look on
her face, and she slowly repeated:
81 am q little deaf" she added; "can't
you speak a little louder"
Her own tones 10y this time we're
loud enough for an open-air orator,
and the audience to the dialogue now
comprised all the passengers i'm the
ar.
The pretty girl had gone too far to
back out, and i'll a tone that would
have done credit to an elocutionist
shetried again. "Your skirt is one
sided!"
For the first time the face OF the
woman lightedup with q show OF in
terest, and with a delusive smile that
raised false hopes in the fair maiden's
breast she leaned far back so asto get
the fullimport OF the reply and shout
ed:
Did you say you came from Roch-
ester?:"
She was a little deaf. 1t took the
combined efforts OF all the ladies neal
her to make her understand, but
when she knew what they wanted she
seemed truly grateful, and, turning
round, would doubtless have added
to her acknowledgement some words
OF apology to the young lady, but the
seat was vacant. Thefair Samaritan
was gone.

THE GLITTER OF THEIR gucKLERs.

THE GLITTER OF THEIR BUCKLERs.
You hear the paving OF their charg-
ere, and along their line OF battle is
heard the shout oftheir great captain,
and at the armies OF the living God
they hurl their defiance. They come,
not in numbers like the hosts of SEN
%nacherib, but their multitude is like
the leaves of the forest, and thesound
Of their voices like the thunder of the
sea. Mailed in Hell's impenetrable
armor, they advance with the waving
OF their banners and the dancing OF
their plumes. Their ranks are not
easily to be broken, for the batteries
of He'll will open to help them and ten
thousand angels OF darkness mingle in
the fight. Where are the chosen few,
who will throw themselves into the
jaws OF this conflict? Oh, l should
like to see God arise for the defence of
his OWE cause and the disenthralment
OF a world in bondage. How the fet-
tiers wonld snap and how thedarkness
would fly, and how heav wouldsing.
But my text is descril live also Of
those who hunt for opportunities,
and, when they get them, do not use
them. The rabbit they overcome by
an early morning tramp IS for weeks
uncooked in the dooryard. The deer
that they brought down after long
and exhaustive pursuit in the Adiron-
dacks, lies ontheir doorsilundressed,
and the savory venison becomes q
malodorous carcass. They roast not
what they took in hunting. Oppor-
tunities laborously captured, yet use
less, and that whichcame ininvitingly
like a string OF plover and quail and
wild duck hung over a hunters Shout
der turns to something worse than
nothing. So with Agr;ppa when al
most %pursuaded to be a Christian. So
with the lovely young MAJ who went
away from Christ very sorrowful. So
with tens OF thousands who have
whole hands full, whole skies full OF
winged opportunities which profit
them nothing at all, because they
roast not that which they took in
hunting. Oh, make out OF this cap
tured moment a banquet for eternity.
The greatest prize in the universe to
be won is the love and pardon of
Christ. Win that and you can say:
Now | have found a friend
Whose love shall never end,
Jesus is mine.
