Mission of Vegetables.

Good health is one of the things which
are necessary for our happiness in this
world. By careful attention to our diet
many sicknesSeS may be averted. If the
stomach is kept in healthful condition
the whole physical system will work
harmoniously except under unusual cir
cumstances. A little study about the
properties OF different kinds of food, and
particularly vegetables, will save us
many DOCTORS bills and do away with
the use of good many drugs. Vegetables
will be found to possess great medicinal
properties, and many a sickness may be
averted by using the property food at the
right time. Says an authority, spinach
has direct effect upon complaints of the
kidneys; the common dandelion used as
greens is excellent for the same trouble:
asparagus purifies the blood; celery acts
admirably upon the nervous system, and
is cure for rheumatism and neuralgia:
tomatoes act upon the liver; beets and
turnips are excellent appetizers; lettuce
and cucumberS are cooling in their effects
upon the system; beans are very nu-
tritious and strengthening vegetable;
while onions, garlics, leeks, chives and
shalots, all of which are similar, possess
medical virtues of marked character
stimulating the circulatory system, and
the consequent increase of the saliva, and
the gastric juice promoting digestion.
Red onions are an excellent diuretic, and
the white ones are recommended raw as
aremedy for insomnia. They are tonic
and nutritious. A soup made from onions
is regarded by the French as an excellent
restorative in debility of the digestive or
gans We might go through the entire
list and find each vegetable possessing
its special mission of cure, and it Will be
plain to every housekeeper that vegeta-
BILE diet should be partly adopted, and
will prove of great advantage to the health
of the family.

Subterranean Fires.

WARRENsAURG, Mo-, Jan. 49, A party
composed of J. H. Miller, VIM. Miller
and w. H. Hood, while out hunting
Wednesday discovered, ten miles south
east of here, what they claim to be
natural gas. Smoke was seen rising
from the ground on top of a hill. The
earth around the top was cracked open,
and after digging down about three feet
they found the earth to be heated to a
white heat. About half mile south of
this was found another such place, and
as there is nothing that indicates the
presence of any substance that would
burn, they think it is gas. The odor
given off smells like gas, and as the heat
grows greater and the area larger, the
neighbors have fears as to what the re-
suit will be.

said: 81 can state without any fear

is not the slightest probability of a free
coinage bill becoming law during

est probability Of any amendment be-
ing made to the existing law on that
subject" Hill said in a speech in
Albany Dec. 81, that the present con-
gress must not pass free coinage
bill. Yet, the Fort Worth Gazette,
with the gall that could only be IN
spired by Tammany brave, is
shaiekipg in loaded editorials that
Mills mast be defeated for the senate
because he opposes the agitation of
the silver question, though he is in
favor of free coinage, and at the sam e
time the Gazette poses as the organ of
