WHAT AN ONION
CAN DO-A GREAT
AID TO HEALTH

~T HE many merits OF the lemon
have earned for it the title of
Doctor" but it seems that the
plebeian onion has equal claim.
4 writer says:
They are Invaluable for soups. They
are blood purifiers. a liberal use of
them Is recommended as cure for
boils. and they tend to make the com
pIeXlon clear and the face free from
pimples. The children of those nation
alities who eat of them most largely
DCticeably escape that bane Of child
hood-worms- Their use is beneficial
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 insomnia.
a favorite remedy for Il 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 sugar over it,
then add another slice of onion, build
| ing it up thus by layers until all are
used Cover the dish. About once in
, three hours a teaspOonful of syrup VIII
have formed, which should be taken al
intervals OF about this length through
out the day.

Besides being an essential part OF the

cleanses the palate and furred tongue,
and a gargle OF salt and water IS often

WHEN THE COLD

IS INJURIOUS


~ OLD baths in the morning are
4 undoubtedly beneficial. but only.
10 those persons who have sufn
oicut Vital energy and nervous
force TO insure good reaction, with no
subsequent languor or Iassitude. Many
persons who arc greatly refreshed by
their morning bath feel tired or languid
two or three hours after it. When this
occurs il Is conclusive evidence that the
practice Is harmful. Persons who have
an abundance of blood and flesh, who
are lymphatic or sluggish in temnera-
ment, and whose nervous force is not
depleted, can take cold morning bath
TO advantage. Others, who are inclined
to be thin, whose hands and feet become
cold and clammy on slight proVocatton.
who digest food slowly and assimilate
it with difficulty, VINO are nervous, and
who have much on their minds should
avoid early morning cold bathing. For
such the bath before retiring at night
is recommended. as il should be follow
ed by rest CT brain and body till equabie
conditions of circulation are re-eSta blish-
ed. Some persons who are weak in
nerve power have such eNcitahle nerves
that they get at once a perfect reaction
from cold bathing. but lose in after-ef-
fects more than the value OF the bath.
This class of individuals should not
battle TOO often. and should always use
tepid water, choosing the time prefer
