Ugliness is another term for 'sickness.
Well people feel good aud look good.
Health ia beautiful and identifying, and
onions are heatth.giving.
The onion contains sulphur, albumen,
sugar, starch, phosphoric acid, lime and
aCetic acid. It Is a stimulant, whether
used as medicine or food; 1t is q
valuable expectorant, having tho power
to remove inflammation from the lungs;
tits diuretic, promoting the action OF
the kidneys, and il is rubefacient, that
is productive Of color and heat.
Taken at intervals, raw or cooked,
the vegetable increases the appetite of
the invalid or convaleseent, aids diges-
ton, brlghtens the complexion, and,
besides nourishes the body, dislodges 80
many impurities by stimulating the se-
cretions, that 1t has been called the
'sCayenger OF the stomach. Onion juice
prepared with honey is frequently
given to children for Group and catarrh;
onion poultice is familiar cure for
sore throat aud baked onion split and
applied to tuuors is one OF the best OF
.emolients.
Boiling removes the essential oil from
the vegetable The value OF fried and
raw onions as food and medicine is
we'll known to the soldiers Of all ma
tions.
Onions are good any time, aud in any
style, but they are best in the morning.

Public Men Say It Is the Most Dangerous
Since the Existence Of the Kingdom.
The news from Italy this week has
been each day worse than the last. ST.
gnor Villari. many times cabinet minis
ter and powerful leader, publishes
remarkable article in Rome appealing to
the king to save the country from the
most dangerous crisis since the existence
of the kingdom by proclaiming dicta-
torship which shall put an end to power
less parliamentarism. Nothing else, he
declares, will avert the triumph of revo-
lutionary socialism which will destroy
existing institutions The article has
won the approval of many conservative
persons, and even the selection Of a die
tator is being discussed. He would be
Signor Crispi or some general. Crispi
is quoted as saying to his friends that
his hour is not yet come, but when an
appeal is made he will be ready. A
The government dare not reduce the
army for domestic as we'll as interna-
tional reasons. The situation in Sicily
is as threatening as ever, and there is no
telling at what moment the large force
now there will be required to suppress
rebellion at home. The forces are being
prepared for such an emergency. but
there are grave doubts whether any body
of troops would obey an order to fire
upon their rsbellious countrymen. The
government is undoubtedly cherishing
strong hopes of the naval cooperation
of Great Britain in any emergency

A "NationaI Bouauet."

Among the many suggestions concern
ing national flower, one which comes
from Vermont farmer has decided
point and interest. He proposes that we
shall not attempt to settle upon ma
tional flower, but let each state choose a
state flower, and have national bou-
quet," composed of all the state flowers.
Already certain of the states have en-
blems which would make very appro-
pirate and pretty elements in such a
great American nosegay.
Massachusetts, people prefer the traii-
ing arbutus for an enblorn. O Oaiffornia,
on the other side of the continent, has by
law adopted the eschscholtzia or poppy
as its state flower. The cedar sprig of
Vermont and the pine branch Of Maine
would contribute needed tinge of green
to the nosegay, while the orange blossom
of Florida would lend it's fragrance, and
the mountain laurel of Alabama would
crown it resplendently.
The goldenrod and the aster would bo-
long to the first state which should for
mally adopt them, and so would the
graceful shooting star of the central west
and the prairie rose. There are flowers
and trees enough to ego around"
A bouquet composed Of all these state
flowers and tree branches would grace
ell formal occasions and would typify
the union of the states. 1t would say
"E pluribus unum" to the ordinary in
telligence more plainly than the Latin
motto does.-Youth's Companion.

A HEART IN HIS LEG.
Operation In a st. Louis Hospital Upon
Patient Peculiarly Ahiicted.

Operation In st. Louis Hospital Upon
Patient Peculiarly AFFLICTED.
DR.. Marks, superintendent of the City
hospital, cut heart out of mans leg
recently. Instead of being necessary to
the patients existence, as hearts usually
are, this organ was very dangerous
possession and was likely to end his life
at any moment. The heart was almost
as large as the one usually found inside
mans ribs and beat in very much the
same manner. 1t was situated upon the
inside OF the right leg, four or five inches
above the knee, and was more tender
than the ball Of the owners eye.
Charles Gentry, laborer, was the
owner Of this very remarkable organ.
To the surgeons the phenomenon SCALED
traumatic aneurism Of the femoral ar
tery This artery is the big blood feeding
pipe that runs from the heart down
through the body and leg, furnishing life
to the different parts Of the anatomy as
it goes. About two months ago Gentry
was struck upon the leg just over the ar
terry by shaft of piece Of machinery.
The inner wall of the artery was burst,
and the big pipe began to bulge out at
this point. The outer wall, or coat of
the artery, luckily stretched and held the
blood, or Gentry would have bled to death
in no time.
The artery kept ON swelling with ev-
cry pulsation Of the patients heart
From the size of hazelnut the bulge
grew and grew until it was larger than
a mans fist. How the artery managed
to stand 1t without bursting was mat
ter for wonder even to the surgeons. The
least touch given to the skin over the
swelling caused Gentry horrible pain,
and he was obliged to keep very still lest
any sudden movement or contact would
break it and by the hemorrhage bring on
death. Tho aneurism could be seen to
beat to all intents and purposes like any
other heart. IL one brought his ear close
to it, he could hear constantly repeated
blowing or breathing sound coming from
beneath the skin. This noise was caused
by the vacant air space around the
swollen artery where it had crowded the
muscles aside.
The patient was laid upon the operat-
ing table and placed under the influence
of chloroform. A sharp knife laid the
tissues aside and exposed the femoral ar
terry with its apple shaped bulb. The ar
terry was then tied or ligated two inches
above and two inches below the swelling
and the big bulb cut open. Nearly a
pint of blood gushed forth. and then there
was no heart left. The slit artery was
then sewed together with fine silk threads
previously soaked in antiseptic solution
and left to heal.-St. Louis Globe-Demo-
crat.

A WONDERFUL HAND.
An Artificial Substitute Nearly as Perfect
as the Natural Member.

An Artificial Substitute Nearly as Perfect
as the Natural Member.
Willard A. Lucas, the son of a great
woolen manufacturer at Poquetannuck,
Conn, wears an artificial hand made
Of aluminium which is really one of the
automatical wonders of the century.
Young Lucas lost his hand in his fa-
theirs mills, and Lucas, Sr., who grieved
exceedingly over the results of the ac-
cident, wrote or went in person to every
known manufacturer Of artificial limbs
IN th1s country and Europe, vainly
seeking false hand for his son. Arti-
fetal hands could have been procured
from any of them, but what was want
ed was not to be found-viz, a hand that
would perform all the functions of
real flesh and blood member.
Finally the elder Lucas, who is
known as a rare mechanical genius,
took it upon himself to make his son
hand-not mere dummy" but one
that would be useful for the manifold
purposes to which such members are
put. The result is a surprise to every
maker of artificial limbs in the world
The automaton is of aluminium and
much resembles the steel gauntlets
worn by the knights of the middle ages.
The fingers are all perfect and lifelike,
the joints in each bending as readily as
those in natural hand, making it pos
sible for the young man to perform ev
cry kind of labor. An expert report on
this wonderful piece of mechanism reads
as follows:
with it he can grasp and handily
use all kinds of tools, pick up things
from the ground, drive, handle gun
in fact, use it quickly and skillfully at
any kind of work. Like natural hand,
the artificial one consists Of a palm that
is provided with fastening by which
it is attached to a cork stump. the
joints working by a ratchet, SO that the
fingers may be bent forward at any
angle and held there. The hand may
be only partly closed or tightly shut,
and only one finger or all, as the wear
er desires, may be closed at once and
instantly by striking them against the
body or other object. To release the
grasp it is only necessary to touch a
spring at the back Of the hand. The
invention is as nearly perfect substi-
tute for natural hand as could be de-
vised and is the only thing Of the kind
known in the world. "-St. Louis Re-
public.

rhe Head yYniter,s CocktaiI.

In a swell hotel on Broadway the
head waiter is not allowed to indulge IN
bibulous refreshments during the hours
be is on duty. The other evening he
was filed with an irrepressible long
ing for cocktail. He managed to get
it with such ease that it was evidently
a well tried and efiicacious trick.
His method can be best understood
by quoting the waiter:
''Sure, we're not charging yes for a
cocktail, whispered waiter to a
young gentleman to whom he had just
brought check, "hut the head waiter
wanted Cocktail : and thought yes
would be the wan who would moind

The Swedish Peace society, with head
quarters at Stockholm, has offered a
prize of 1000 francs for the best essay
on the subject, ''How Can AN Interna-
tional Public Opinion Against the Uni
versal Armament Movement Be Created?'
The answers, which should contain prac-
tical suggestions, should be sent to Gus
tav Bjoerklund, Stockholm, before March
/, 1894. They may be written in English,
Swedish, Danish, French, German or
Norwegian. Mr.. Bjoerklund is presi-
dent of the society and an author of
wide repute in his native land. He pro-
poses to spend as much time as possible
in convincing European nations that the
time of universal peace is nigh and that
the standing armies should be abolished.

Arkansas.

The Little Rock Gazette has got every
body mixed up by bringing forward
new pronunciation of the name Arkan-
sas. No one but Englishmen OF Bosto-
mans pronounce the word as it is spelled.
It was understood that the legislature of
the state some years ago officially fixed
the pronunciation as Arkansaw. Here
comes The Gazette, however, with g
poem entitled my Happy Little Home
In Arkansas" in which the final syllable
of Arkansas is made to rhyme first with
''How" and then with below" This
indicates that the native pronunciation
Of the name is not Arkansaw but Arkan-
sow, and we are at sea again. The Ar
kansawyers or the Arkansowers should
settle this matter once for all. 1t is be-
coming puzzling and annoying. Per-
haps Mr.. Opie Read, the Arkansaw
Traveller, could put an end to the dis
pute.--Chioago Herald.

influence Of srauohester Canal.

A London correspondent says: 1t is
evident that the Manchester Ship canal,
which will open on Jan. /, will obtain a
large share of its business from cotton
carrying steamers. The managers of the
canal say that several steamers have al
ready engaged to bring cotton from New
Orleans and Galveston to Manchester
direct, and Sa8 spinners, owning more
than 10000. 900 spindles and consuming
about $50. 900 tons of raw cotton yearly,
have signed statement booming the
new route. They pledge themselves to
give preference, when buying to arrive
to cotton shipped direct, and when buy
ing on spot to cotton imported direct
and stored in Manchester.
