THE ONION INDICATED.
Science Comes to the Aid Of
Those Who Love Il.

From the Louisville Courier-Journal.
Many a unexpectedly few women
try it-finds a raw onion highly inn
proving to his state of health when he
Is afflicted with a severe cold.
A bacteriologist explains that there is
no mystery about the onion cure. 1t
is not like a charm which may pre-
vail upon a wart to vanish, but Is vir-
tually a specific for the cure of colds,
In that the oil in the onion kills the
microbes of cold"
The mouth OF nearly every healthy
person contains a few diplococci pneu-
monae. it is explained, and a cold,
which AXE resistance, may give
the deadly d%iplococcus his chance. It
is. therefore, important to treat the cold
germ as severely as he has treated you.
He is fastidious and does not like
onions. Dose him with raw onions and
he dies. AS for the members of the
family who object to onions-well. q
man must not give up his hope of es-
cape from the lurking diplococcus
merely because his sisters. his cousins
or his aunts abhor the penetrant per-
fume of raw onions.
Large. luscious onions repose tempt-
ingly amid the green grocer's array of
edibles. But only the brave who de-
serve, and are unafraid of. the fair,
served raw. Only a few bold spirits
will go so far as to smuggle them into
the household for consumption at the
witching time o. night when hell it
self breathes out contagion on the
world" and "A man who has eaten an
onion should, by comparison, seem in
and blameless.
But inasmuch as a bacteriologist in
dorses the onion as a cold cure, and
tells how 1t acts. let us be up and do
ing with a heart for n argument in
protest that may be made. With a
Spanish onion is large as a squash.
and the "fiXin's' that go Herewith, let
those of us who nave hitherto lacked,
in polite company, the courage of our
convictions. go as far as we like. The
onion has an oil in 1T, and the oil has
a Latin name and a specific function.
And pneumonia is a deadly peril which
must be guarded against at all costs.
and in defiance of contumely. Even if
one hasn't IL cold. who can tell what
tomorrow might bring forth? Proven.
tive medicine beats a pound OF cure.

We're no household effects at all. Alto
gether we obtained fire insurance
amounting to $127.5OO on articles cost
ing 1896. This insurance was in the
form of 1875 policies. Practically every
company. which is. a member of tho
New York Board of Fire Underwriters.
issued insurance policies to my men.
An inspection would have shown
them that the property they were in
surfing was worthless. But no such
inspection was made. Scarcely with
out exception. the companies did not
consider 1T worth while to see what
name of household effects they were
issuing insurance pon They accepted
the business without question.
