Onions are a kind of all-around good medicine AS whole onion- eaten at bedtime will, by the next morning, break the severest cold. Onions make a good plaster to remove inflammation and hoarseness. If an onion is mashed so as to secare all the juice in it it will make a most remarkable smelling substance that will quiet the most ner vous person. The strength of it in haled for a tew moments "will dull the sense of smell and weaken the nerves until Sleep is produced frorn sheer ex haustion. It all comes from one prop erty possessed by the -xmion, and that is a form cf opium. San Francisco Chronicle. LICE ON HORSES.'

' V WALK ASHORE! It all happened at one of theme pleasant aea side resorts,. where life ia comedy from day to day and tragedy has no place. She just stepped on the raft which she thoug-ht was moored, and in pure idleness f mood fell to rocking: it from side to aide. Bat the raft was not moored. Her rocking: had slowly dislodged it from the aand, on which it was grounded, and when she turned aroand, she was afloat and the shore a rod behind bcr. She cried for help and waa heard by a lonely fisherman who sat at Rome distance on the beach mending hia nets. How slowly be got up. How slowly be tramped across the sandy shore. And she was drifting, drifting, drifting ! " Save me" ! she cried, "aave me"! a the old man came to the water's edge, The griz zled mariner raised his hand to the side of his mouth and cried hoarsely, "Walk ashore "1 f . That's all there waa of it. She was still in shoal water. All she needed was the timel v word of instruction aid advice. ; But suppose it had not come ? Suppose she had not heeded it? Was there no danger? The open sea, a frail. raft, ana a frailer woman ! ' The woman on the raft i a type of hun dreds of thousands of her sex who are drifting into danger. Up to a definite day, they have been enjoying lifej in perfect security. Then, in a moment a sense of impending danger comes. They are at the mercy of disease. Every day increases tha danger. ; They are drifting, drifting, drift ing. Then cornea the cry for help. To thousands of appeals there has come the answer from' Dr. R. V. Pierce, chief con sulting physician to the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. V., " wa ts ashore! walk' Ashore ! I You are still in the shallow waters of disease. You can still get back without more than inconvenience Uf the lana of health behind you. All yam need is just the right word of advice -and common sense instruction in time, and the grip of a helping hand. That isjust what Dr. Fierce oners to every one Buffering!1 from disease ; timely, health restoring, life saving advice, practical help. It requires some confidence to take advice when your wn senses are against it. The woman on the raft conld not see the bottom of the roily water, and the land looked so far awry; So the woman in disease can't see how she can be cured, and recovery of health . seems hopeless. And, perhaps, the very disease that has begun to threaten her is consumption, that dreadful disease regarded by millions aa incurable. Her local doctors perhaps say, " we can make your suffering a little less, but there's no hope." j 1 Does Dr. Pierce claim to cure consump tion ? That question isn't worth arguing Look at the record. : Take a case in point, ' Here la -a man (or woman) with a hacking cough, a hectic flush, night-sweats, great tmi ciattoa or wasting of flesh, spitting of blood, ahortneaa of breath and all the other symptoms. After every remedy and every local physician has failed, he, aa a last resort, takes "Golden Medical Discovery " and the ooush vanishes, the Cheek get back its natural color, aleep becomes sound and refreshing, the spitting of blood Mops, flesa and muacles become firm, weight increases, and life goes along in quiet aad conip. fort to the full limit of the three score yean and ten. a -! ' Bnt may be it wasnt consumption after all May be it wasn't. You kno it was something that waa attacking the very Citadel of life, and it was something that was cored by the use of Dr. Pierce's Golden Media Discovery. And Dr. Pierce is curing such "sofuetltings" right along Willi a record -of over a quarter of a million eases, and not more than three per cent, of failures. ' --- " : i ' One fact, at least is wetl established. That the "Golden Medical Discovery" does cure weak lungs, bleeding fromiluny. obstinate, lingering cougha, laryngitis, 'bronchitis, throat disease, and kindred auectkms of the air pas. aagea, which, if neglected or badly treated, lead np to Consumption, can no longer be douWrd in view, of the many thousands of well estab lished cures of such cases reported by the most trustworthy citizens. Many of these cases have been pronounced consumption and incurable by the best local physicians before the suner er commenced the tine of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. Whether the doctors have errea ta tneir tudrment ta tnese am a cases or no is net tor aa to acooc. - ' POINTS IN A GOOD BEEF. T. G. Imboden. of Decatur, Mo., in an address delivered before an associ ation of stock breeders, gave his ideas as to beef cattle points as follows: "There is ho one; breed : fcf beef cat tle better than a?l others under all-circumstances and coaditions.fi. ?r The t rouble with cattle from the butchers" 'standpoint is too big shoul ders, giving the forequartef s too large a proportion to the rest of the carcass, "The muscles that are exercised the most are the. toughest; for1 this reason the inside two-thirds, of tike round ; is good, while the outside third is not so good. "A thick, mellow hide not a hard. harsh hide denotes, more clean meat than a thin hide.' A straight back, well sprung rib and widih of loin indicates a large amount ot , tne ; nign-pricea meats, in i the. carcass. . 1 , V- . -: The comparison of animals in the show ring - is often so cjpse S that the awarding of the 'prize turns on a very small point, as a tie or a dimple in the back, which cuts no hgnre! in tne use fulness or profit of the animal. "A typical beef animal , should have a thicker neclc than the tlairy breeds, the flesh should begin at the front; the animal should have the greatest possi bje thickness of flesh along the back between the shoulder arid tho hips, and the width of the hip shoull be carried forward to the shoulders. il j "The Angus are thickest-fleshed beef cattle; their greatest fault: is too much of a spread of the shoulder blades at the top; they do not mature .quite as quick as the Jlereords. jit would be hard to tell which of the beef breeds at .10 months old on the same care and feed" would make the greatest gain. "Young animals develop j muscle along with the fat, and when fattened young contain a larger proportion of lean meat to the fat, and i are hence more profitable to the butcher. The first 1000 pounds put on al steer is the cheapest, as the: animal is ' growing ,as well as fattening, and thei jcost ; of in crease of weight increases:, with the age." . -; WITH APPENDICITIS.

Scope of Instruction Given at the Institutions -- The Extent of the Plants-Moody' Plans; in Bn tiding: Them The Seheme ;for Keeping1 Them in Existence. Northfield, Mass., Feb. 3 When one, travels down the Connecticut val ley, he notices a group of academic buildings within the shadow of the Northfield hills. A little further on he sees another group of; jsimilar buifdy inys, icrciicu metier un inn, mm : . first he thinks fhe&e to be. the same cluster brought again irito view by a curve in the road, . But! they are re ally separate schools. Hie group first noticed is the Northfield . school for girls, and the other: at a: safe distance of three miles, is the Mount llernjion school for : young men. (These are the famous schools founded y D-wigtit L. Moody, and were his especial pride. At Northfield, too, are tif Id the sum mer conferences of Christians, which have . received -wide attention. 'Mr, 'Moody's avowed object -in start ing the schools was to "give a Christian education to those who otherwise could not afford ft. ; At the j girls' school there are enrolled 370 ptipils. and at (lie young man's, 413. j Mr. Moody's death caused anxious solicitation ai To what would -become of I the schools. Kvery effort is : being maide to niake1 their foundation; secure.; j To this end a whole army of helpers is being rallied all over the world. The first purpose is to raise a -Moody metiiorial . endow ment fund of $3,000,000 to carry thfcm on after the manner of their! presttit management. ; There hasllieen pledged already $50,000 byv one I person, and many other .largesubscriptions jire expected soon: At a meeting held! in New York recently, at which the trustees of all the schools, including that - in Chicago, 'were Represented it was voted unanimously f to continu" the work of education j just as it - had been done, carrying on the schools and the summer conferees after he present method. At this meeting fan advisory committee was! appointed f to have charge of the endowment fund, the interest to make up the deficiency, which results from charging only $100 for tuition when the cost is Stoo. Mr. Moody persistently refutsed toStwrease the tuition lest by o doing he .should turn away th; very young men and women he -wished to-helo. ' t The Advisory Committee is com oosed of William E. i Dodge. laraes Talcott, Morris K. s Jesup. Anson" t'helps stokes, 1. W. AlcWilliams, U Willis James, : John S. Kennedy and Ira D- Sankejr'of New York, John Wanamaker and John H. Converse of Philadelohia, iCynis McCormack and E. G. Keith of Chicagb. Charles A. Hopkins of Boston, and Francis Whit? of Baltimore,; with power to add to their number from the1 cities of the United States arid Canada. From these were! chosen as a: finance committee Messrs. Talcott. Jestm ?nd Stokes. Mr. McWilliams was added' to the com mittee as treasurer of the fund. ' The estimates for ic6o,j based on the treasurer's report of te last school year for the running expenses of both schools, are as follows!: ; , ? r Mount "-Hennon -f-faluation of grounds and buildings, '$6,517. Run- ning expenses Salaries, boarding stu dents, etc., $81,437; income from en dowments and invested funds, $1180; on MOODY'S SCHOOLS royalty on Gospel Hymns, $5,257; raised by donations, $2766. j. s Northfield Seminary Valuation of grounds and buildings, $373,722.! Run ning " expenses Salaries, . boarding stodents, etc., 71440. Receipts 4Boar and tuition of students, 32,514; income from endowments and invested ! funds, $3,5li; royalty on Gospel Hymns, $5-257: sundry other sources, f 3.087; raised by donations, $27,071. - From these hcures it will be! seen that $27,000 is needed for both. Mount Hermon and JNorthfield, seminaries for running expenses. 1 ernaps no better idea can be given of what these schools are doing and are striving to; attain than is told by two graduates,' bhe of Mount Hermon and - the othe -; of Northfield, in sketches -which w?re pub lished as prize sketches recently in the Northfiehi Echoer. Every inipil is required to work at least one hour a day,: and all the work except the,1 sever est manual labor1 is done by : thean; A nv student enters Mount Hermon fully expecting to 1e hazed, and jis sur prised to be heartily greeted with of fers of help bv the older pupils. I Then he is further surprised that the hones ty pf all is taken for jjranted. Mqney for j-stamps is left -without fear at the fiublic letter-box, and doors a re. not ocked at night. That there iaf little time for loafing can be seen from the daily programme. The pupil his to rise at 6 a. m., and in fifteen minutes a student, who is officer of the floor. tnakes a tour of the rooms to see that all ! are up. For twenty minutes there is silent time for private devotron At: 7 , o'clock comes .breakfast in the large dining hall,; a separate building, with long tables, the boys doing the vbrk, . including baking and waiting under the direction of a hired' cook Tw'enty minutes, is given for breakfast, after which beds are made and rooms cleaned.!- Between 7:40 and 11:50 a. in are study and recitation periods. At 11:55 come chapel exercises lasting about half an hour. At 12:30 is din ner. At 1:20 comes work time, which lasts until 3:20 p. m., and then' study or - other duties until 4:30, when the time until 6 o. m. is given for recrra tiori. At 6 o'clock is supper, devotion bsing held just before the meal, and atf 7 there is study for two hours. Clas prayer meetings are held at 9 o'clock xn inursdays. from 0:30 to 10 o'clock is evening silent time, and St 10 p. m. lights are out and rliere is inspection bv the floor officer. In few .educational institutions does the - dem ocratic spjrit' prevail so largely.!' ,-. A certain youth with aristocratic ideas and dress was met one day by one in authority and suddenly re quested to go and catch a pig that had broken bounds. He obeyed and was soon seen running round after the sauealinsr fugitive, holdinn its hihd 'legs, and his cuffs having slipped from . . am own wnsts were aaornmg. tne legs of the captive, much to the jamuse. ment of ' the onlooker. The work which the students have to do consists of farm workr milking and caring for the cews and there is a large' herd of cleaning and caring for the horses, feeding pigs and chickens, making butter and sawing wood, driving teams, garden work and caring for the lawns, , also sweeping, mopping, care of furnaces work in the dining room and kitchen and laundry and work in the. blacksmith, carpenter, paint and harness shops and in the canning establishment, which kas re cently been started for canning- the farm fruits. But the boys have time for sports, baseball, football and ten nis, although they are not allowed two debating societies and a strongYoung Men's Christian Association, tljtc stu dents doing much Christian, work in surrounding places. . At Northfield is the same kindly welcome . to the new students.: The first thing a girl docs, of course, is to inspect her room, and in a jiffy with the mysterious art of woman she makes suit of bare floor and walls a coscy and wetty little apartment where she reigns supreme all her days at schools. Lpkc her brother she has to work ani hour a day, but only such as is a woman's part. The daily programme is similar, ex cept she has what the boys dojnot, a fine gymnasium. ' In summer are de l:ghtful walks, tennis and rowing on Wanamaker Lake, named f&r John Wanamaker of Philadelphia,": Who has contributed liberally to the 'schools, and in the winter there is prime coast ing on "rippers" pushed and; steered by girls, and .skating. Of the pupils at Mount llerrnon 130 came from Massachusetts, lot) from New York, 63 from Connecticut,! 11 from Illinois, California has two, rep resentatives. England five, Japan four, Norway and Sweden one eah, and about every country on the globe has one or more representatives. The same iroportion at Northfield Seminary lolds good. Many came from the farm ing district around Northfieldj. it was these young men and women jthat Mr. Moody had in mind ; when be estab lished the schools. He saw nil around him, not only all over the cojuntry on his travels, but. tight near his home at Northfield, young men sndf"" women who were suffering through poverty for lack of education. It was to his' mind waste material that ought to be 1ut to use. Many at Mount-, Hermon lave worked in store's : ori already learned a trade. One-fifth fi the stu dents enter some form of Christian work. At the seminary candidates for admission must be at least 13 rears old, and at Mount Hermon one yar older. At first Mr. Moody required ithe bovs I to be only 14 years old, but finding he h?u raauc a mistaKe ne raiseq tne acre i uinission. vanaiaaies iorj tne first form are required to pass an examina tion in arithmetic, grammar,' geogra phy, also history spelling and writing. Each school has its own principal and full corps of teachers t A full and thorough couf si of study in the English Bible was o6e of the chief aims. in founding the M0unt Her mon and Northfield schools. This study, therefore, holds a central , place m the curriculum. Every student ,has two period! of Bible study! iri class each week. He may increase this num ber by taking two courses at-the same time, or by electing Bible as one of his daily studies. The Bible itsflf is the text book. Other books are used as helos, but never as substitutes for it Full outlines are furnished ti the stu dent in connection with each - course, analyzing.the books and topics studied, with questions to guide thought and investigation and wfth reference to li brary help. The results of private and class study aie put by the 'student into orderly form in notebooks or interlined Bibles. In the advanced classes tonV, are assigned to individual sludents'lor $Iecial study, and the results are pre sented sn class reports or essays. t Collections of photographs of Pales tine and of paintings representing Hi. ble scenes .arc used to ; illustrate the teachings, and stereopticon lectures are introduced. The teachers aim to make the student think out the truth for him. self and applys them in his own :life and in Christian work. J There are four regular course ot instruction, iclassical, clentific, L-uin scientific,; and elective. 'Much attention 1 is paid to music especially vocal. There i has been started also recently 'a train ing school, the students fjecupying The Northfield,4 the hotel - which is only open to, guests in summer. At Cliioa go is another school, known as n the Bible Jifstitute. " The seminary at Norjhfie'd is at the head tf "the long village street; wiihin the pre"cincs are the house, where Mr. Moody 'l was born, the house where he died, and Round Top, famous ; cone, overlooking miles of beautiful country, where he is buried. The Recitation Hall, the Talcott Library and the kin. ner Gymnasium form the center of the ! group of seminary buildngs, .3 around is; a very large lawn, which is kept carefully trimmed in, summer. Mr. Moody thought i it was too; bad tliat men should have, to work so! hard in the hot weather caring for the lawn, so he bought a donkey which dos the mowing and at oth'er times drags hap py children around the village streets. Recitation Ilall is a fine, ..substantial 'building provided ""with, a Mintef of convenunt ciass-rooms, and contain ing cheiijeal, physical m and bounical laboratories . for practical work.! chapel occupies the center of the j sec ond, floor, and the rooms at the fright and left are so arrranged that'lhe whole Of their floor can be thrown into- one " room.

The new chapel, a birllid:iy gift to Mr. ooly from his frtends in England and America, is ncariiie coiir- pletion. It is XieautifuHy sittlated an elevation overlooking the Connecti cut valley. It is built of gray granite and will seat 1,000 persons. pwiK''' nome, named in memory fl Mr. Moody's j grandson, is the iffiVinary Crosley ..

There are also three cottages accommodating 'between- twelve and twenty-one students : each and the rest room in two large farm houses remodelled front the orinmif buildings. The dining hall . is a larjre brick" building with seating capacity ' for the entire school," and at one en-1 is a small dining room for'the teachers. When Mr. goody's house was de stroyed in the Chicago, fire of i7i he came to his former home at Northfield to livei His experience in Chicago had given him a taste for school work and he -soon formed the idea of siart ing a school here. In .1878 with H. X F. Marshal he bought sixieen acres of arm land and buildings and thi? next year 'fifteen acres morf: on which the first recitation building was raised. 'In 1S79 was built the first brick buihlg ' for 100 girls at a cost of $6.000., The school opened on November '3. 1H7Q with twenty-five girls who were taught and lodged in Mr. Mooly's -houses;.
