SCENT OF ONION. By Any Other Name Than Sulphuret af Altyle It Would Be as Sweet. * It is interesting to make inquiry ‘ato the cause of this unfortunate | quality of the onion: It is simply eke to the presence in some quantity in the bulb of sulphur. It is this sul- phur that gives the onion its germ- killing property and makes the bulb so very useful a médicinal agent at all times, but especially in the spring, which used to be—and still is in many places—the season for taking brim- stone and treacle in old-fashioned houses before sulphur tablets came into vogue. Now, sulphur, when united to hydrogen, forms sulphuretted hy- drogen, and then becomes a foul-smeil- ing compound. The onion, being so juicy, has a very large percentage of water in its tissues, and this, combin- ing with the sulphur, forms the strong- ly scented and offensive substance called sulphuret of allyle. This sulphur- | et of allyle mingles more especially ith the Volatile or aromatic oil of the | onion; it is identical with the malo- dorant principle found in asafetida, which is almost the symbol of all smells that are nasty. The horse radish and fhe ordinary mustard of cur tables both owe their strongly stimulative properties to this same | sulphuret of allyle, which gives them | heat and acridity, but not an offensive smell, owing to the different arrange- men of the atoms in their volatile oils, This brings us to a most curi- ous fact in nature, that most strange- | ly, yet most certainly constructs all vegetable volatile oils in exactly the same way—composes them all, wheth® er they are the aromatic essences of cloves, oranges, lemons, cinnamon, thyme, rose, verbena, turpentine or onion, of exactly the same proportion, which are 81% of carbon to 11% of hydrogen, and obtains all the vast seeming diversities that our nostrils detect in their scent simply by a dii- ferent arrangement of the atoms in each vegetable oil.—Chambers’ Jour- | nal, DEPEW’S BAD FRENCH. Dauses Him Trouble Which Results In a Kiss. Having found a purse on the floor o2 a hotel near an armchair, where he had seen a pretty girl seated a short time before, Senator Depew deposited the purse with the hotel clerk in a leading hostiery in Paris. An hour later, being on the street near the ho- tel, the senator recognized by the hurrying home from her call. Desirous of Saving her anxiety when she discov- ered her loss, the senator walked | briskly after her, and when he had reached her side addressed her in his i | politest French. The girl, thoroughly frightened and not understanding him, shrieked for help. The kindly senator tried to pacify her, and as she per- sisted in her failure to comprehend and in crying out for assistance, grew vehement and scared her all the more | Finally the foolish maiden ran to & | policeman who had appeared on the | scene and appealed for protection. It was cnly efter a long wrangle that (1 | the stupid officer of the law, zealous to appear in the light of the rescuer | of @ woman in distress, would admit the possible truth of Senator Depew’s laborious exp!anations. The hotel be- ing near, the policeman finally con- sented to accomptny Mr. Depew and the lady there, sticking close to lady all the way. The purse, which | contained a large sum of money, was geturned to the young woman by the clerk, and she, understanding at last, impulsively threw her arms around | the senator’s neck, and kissed him on | the check. | Austria an Old Ladies’ Paradiso. Contrary to the practice which pre- yails in many other countries, the der. erence shown to women in Austria in. creases with age, and the land is well | gonsidered an oid ladies’ paradise. No ; Austrian would ever @ream of receiv- | i | | | bowing to kiss it.

Girls and young married wom- en, no matter how lofty their dignity do not consider it beneath their dignity to kiss the hands of ladies who have attained a certain age. The men are also extremely courteous, not only to ladies, but to each other. Drift wo the Cities. The Chicago Tribune directs atten- tion to the interesting fact that “while | the population of the country at large has increased about 20 per cent during the last decade, the three principal centers of population, New York, Chi- cago and Philadelphia, have gained 44 per cent.” The cities will continue to grow so long as they offer employment and livelihood to increasing popula- ticn, It all turms on employment, When that ceases to increase the growth of the cities will ccase, and will not be forced by mere desire on |) the part of persons in the country to live in the town,—Spokane Spokesman- ao light of a sirect lamp, the same girl | | ing a Jady’s extended hand without | ; sccial reform work t ‘and you he) “ALASKA FLOWERS. A Well-Known Lover of Nature Tells Us About Them. John Burroughs, the well-known bird lover and naturalist, describes in the Country Magazine a trip that he made to Alaska. Among other things he says: “But we all climbed the mighty emerald billow that rose from the rear of the village, some of us re- peatedly. irom the ship it looked as smooth as a meadow, but the climber soon found himself knee-deep in ferns, grasses and a score of flowering plants, and now and then pushing through a patch of .alders as high as his head. He could not go far before his hands would be full of flowers, blue predomi- nating. The wild geranium here is light blue, and it tinged the slopes as daisies and buttercups do at home. Near the summit there were patches of most exquisite forget-me-nots, of a pure, delicate hue with a yellow cen- ter. They grew to the height of a foot, and a handful of them looked like something just caught out of the sky above. Here, too, were a small, delicate ady’s-slipper, pale yellow striped with maroon, and a pretty dwarf rhododendron, its large purple flower sitting upon the mos3 and lichen, .The climber also waded through patches of lupine, and put his feet among bluebells, Jacob’s-ladder, iris, saxifrage, cassiopes and many others, The song birds that attracted our notice were the golden-crowned sparrow and the little hermit thrush. The golden crown had a peculiarly piercing, plaintive song, very simple, but very appealing, There were only three notes, but they were from out the depths of the bird’s soul. In them was all the burden of the mystery and pathos of life. INCORRECT NAMES. game Birds of America Misnamed by ’ Hunters. It is remarkable that most of the game birds in the United States are known by names which are not honest- ly theirs. A man talks of going quail shooting or pheasant shooting. Neither of these birds is native to America, and the sportsman means he is going after partridges and grouse. There are indeed some pheasant preserves’ in the country, but in spite of assertions to the contrary the quail dces not Hve on the North American continent, ac- cording to the authority of D. G. El- liott in Cuting. In the first place, quail ‘are much smaller than partridges. The main differences, however, between’ the two much-confused birds are: The bill of the true quail is small, weak, entirely different from the strong bill of the English partridges and of our own “Bob White,” and the groove of | the nostril is mostly feathered. The nostril of the American “quail’—really rftridge—is uncovered. Partridge legs are scaly and spurred, while | quails’ legs are never so adorned. The quail’s tail is short, the feathers soft and light and not half so Icng as the wing. The partridge’s tail has from sixteen to eighteen feathers and is de- | cidedly stiff. All the birds here gen- erally called quail, from the Bob Whites, the Messena quail, the crested and plumed quail of the southwest, to those of the Pacific coast, are really partridges, as be found by judging them scientifically. The ruffed grouse rarely receives its correct name, being called partridge or pheasant, accord- ing to locality. The grouse is known by the’ fact that its legs are always completely or partially feathered over. The partridge never has feathers on its legs.

With the exception of torredo boats and.a few small pleasure craft, says a writer in Cassicr’s Magazine, the American-built Russian cruiser Va riag is teday the fastest vessel afloat, having recently gone through a seven and a half hours’ trial run‘at a speed of from 23.6 to 23.7 knots, or 27.14 to 27.25 miles an hour. We need go back only a few years to find a time whea the large Atlantic racers, in point of regularly attainable specd, were far beyond anythixg that had ever been done in any navy, and their perform- ances were considered practically he- yond reach under the severe condi tions of cramped space, light machia- ery weight, and others similarly_ re- strictive to the cesigner. The United States triple-screw cruiser Minneapolis about six years ago developed slightly more t 23 knots du g her con-| tract trials. As in the cases of most naval vessels, it was not expecteu that would be demanded hour after hour in a run of several days, and 1895 practical demonstration was given for the first time that a naval vessel could actually hold her o' with one of the crack Atlantic liners. This was afforded by the United States cruiser Columbia in her phenomenal ren fron. the Needles, near Southampton, to Sandy Hook Lightship, off the American shore, in a few minutes lés3 that seven days, or, to be exact, in 6 days, 23 hours and 49 minutes, the average speed for the whole trip be- ing 18.54 knots, or 21.3 miles an hour | The Columbia at the time was prac- tically racing against the steamer Au- gusta-Victoria of the He fean line.
