Onions Versus Quinine.
One dav I was taken chills
and
headache - signs that my old enemy
malaria, was on hand. My quinine
box was eopty, and I looked for
ward to a restless, sleepless night.
In desperation I peeled a raw on
ion and slowly ate it, then went to
bed with warm feet and an extra
comforter, when presto! I was
asleep in five minutes, and awaken
ed in the morning free from mala
ria and ready for a day's dutie..
Our hamcly but strong friend will
be apprciated in time as a medicine
and if agriculturists , would turn
tbeir attention to raising a model
onion, with, tue strong seem issen
out that taints the breath so un pleas
antly families will be putting their
"pills" in the cellar by the barrel,
and the doctors would take to onion
farming. The onion acts as a ca-
tnartic and diuretic and may neip
to break upa cold or lessen the
bad symptoms. Said a doctor:
I always store a barrel of onions in
my cellar during the fall. We have
them cooked twice a week, and
whoever of the family is threatened
with a cold eats some onion raw.
If this vegetable was generally eat
en there would be no diphtheria,
rheumatism, gout, kidney or stom
ach trouble. But bless you! the
young men and women are afraid
to cat them. One young man went
so far as to say to rae, 'If my wife
ate onions I would get a bill ef
diverce.'"

SEVERAL TEOPLE CRUSHED.
A Wild flight Scent -The IniMtes of Tene

Falling Stracttre.
The Hrralo's Special Dispatches.
New York, Jan. 9. The Throop
avenue Presbyterian church of
Brooklyn was wrecked this morn
ing by high winds. Heavy winds
last night shook the church to its
foundation, and at 4 :30 this morn
ing one of the walls fell with a
crash on the three-story frame
building adjoining, and brought
"with it death and destruction. The
ruined building was tenanted by
two families named Mott and
Purdy. There were in it nine per
sons. The tenants of the frame
bouse adjoining were alarmed last
night by the manner in which the
church walls shook and rattled.
Their own building was considera
bly shaken, and it was with tear
and dread that the retired. Twice
daring the night some of the in
mates were aroused by the roaring
wind, but every one was in bed
and sleep when the disaster oc-
curred. Tneneayy oncK wait oi
the church fell suddenly with a
crash, and in a heap through the
cockshell structure adjoining like a
battering ram. The building
seemed to be torn in twain, ana
instantlv the shrieks and groans of
the injured startled the residents
for blocks around. The house was
torn in such a manner that the
bedroom was exposed, and in the
bed, within plain view of the
street, lay the dead body of Mary
Purdy, borne down beneath a mass
of debris.
Later news shows that Mary
and David Purdy, two young peo
ple, were instantly killed. Several
others were seriously wounded.
The Handkerchief Specialist.
From The Manchester Guardian.
The other uorning,as a deparing
Cunard steamer was casting off its
lines and swinging out into the
stream at Liverpool, au elderly
looking business imtn hastily
embraced a lady, who was one of
the passengers, and rushed dowa
the gang-plank . to the wharf.
Going up to a melancholy loafer
who was watching the busy crowd,
the gentleman drew him behind
a pile of freight, and said, '-Want
to earn five shillings!''
' .r?oi.r
"You see that lady in black on
the forward deck, there?" said the
gentleman.
Yes."
'Well, that's my w:le, going to
New York. Now, of course, she'll
expect me to stand here for the
next tweaty minutes while the
steamer is backing and rilling ao as
to wave my handkerchief and watch
her out of sight. See'f"
"I understand."
"Well, I'm to busy to fool here.
Stock to buy; business tc attend
to. She's a little aeur-sigbtod, so
I'll just hire you to wave this
handkerchief instead. It's a big
oae, with a red border, and so lone
as she sees it she'll think it's mo.
Come up to 202 Lime street when
they are well off, and I'll ray you."
"Spoiin' she looks through a
telescope orsuthioT'
, "la tba' case you'll have to bury
your face la the handkerchief and
look as though you were weeping."
"That'll be two shillngs atd
sixpence extra."
"All right. Time it money.
Look 6barp, now . You can kiss
your hands a few times; say three
pence for a kiss," and, snapping
his watch, the overdriven beiinesa
man rushed off.
We print this affecting little in

that the man thns employed has
gone into the business regularly.
He is now a professional farewollor

Disarming an Unseen Foe.
"This was sometime a paradox," as
Hamlet says. Since, however, the
people of America and other .'ands
have been enabled to pit Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters against that unseen
foe, malaria, it is no longer aparadox,
but an easy possibility. Whatever
malaria evolves its misty venom to
voison the air, and decaying unwhole
some vegetation imprcgnater the
water, there, in the very stronghold
of miasma, is the auxiliary Mtent to
disarm the foe and assure efficient
protection. Fever and ague, bilious
remittent, dumb ague ana ague cake '
no matter how tenaciously they have
fastenet' their clutch on the system
are first forced to relax their grasp
and eventually to abandon it alto

that should chiefly recommend the
Bitters to persons dwelling in malaria
cursed localities, for it is a cerUia
