SCENT OF ONION. By Any Other Name Than Sulphuret of Allyle It Would Be as Sweet. It is interesting to make inquiry tato tke cause of this unfortunate quality of the onion. It is simply @ve 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 medicinal agent at all times, but espe@ially 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 suiphur- et of allyle mingles more especially with the volatile or aromatic oil of the enion; 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 the ordinary mustard of our 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, cinnamcen, 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 cur nostrils detect in their scent simply by a dif- ferent arrangement of the atoms in each vegetable oil.—Chambers’ Jour- nal, DEPEW’S BAD FRENCH. Zauses Him Trouble Which Results In a | Kiss. Having found a purse on the floor 2 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 hostlery in Paris. An hour later, being on the street near the ho- tel, the senatcr recognized by the light of a strect lamp, the same gil hurrying home from her call. Desirous of saving her anxiety when she discoy- ered her loss, the senator walked briskly after her, and when he had reached her side addressed her in his 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 a policeman who had appeared on the scene and appealed for protection. It was only after a long wrangle that the stupid officer of the law, zealous to appear in the light of the rescuer ef & woman in distress, would admit the possible truth of Senatcr Depew’s laborious explanations. The hotel be- ing near, the policeman finally con- rented to accompany Mr. Depew and the lady there, sticking close to the lady all the way. The purse, which contained a large sum of money, was weturned to the young woman by the clerk, and she, understanding at last, impulsively threw her arms around the senator’s neck, and kissed him oa the cheek. Austria an Old Ladies’ Paradise. Contrary to the practice which pre- | vaiis in many other countries, the def- erence shown to women in Austria in- creases with age, and the land is well considered an old ladies’ paradise. No Austrian would ever dream of receiy- ing a lady’s extended hand without | bowing to kiss it. Children, even when grown, always touch the hands of their parents with their Hps before venturing to raise their faces for a kiss. 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 Ime attained a certain age. The mer are also extremely courteous, not oniy to ladies, but to each other. bDritt w the Cities. The Chicago Tribune directs atten- tion to the interesting fact that “while the population of the country at large | hag increased about 20 per cent during the last decade, the three principal centers of population, New York, Chi- eago and Philadelphia, have gained 44 per cent.” The cities will continue to grow so long as they offer employment and livelihood to increasing popula- tion, It all turns on employment. When that ceases to increase the growth of the cities will cease, and will not be forced by mere desire on the part of persons in the country to iive in the town.—Spokane Spokesman- Bowis A KENTUCKY PATRIARCH. A District Now Entirely Populated by His Offspirg. There has just died in Cumberland county, Kentucky, the oldest son of a family that, so far as ayy known rec: ords are concerned, bears the palm for fecundity. He was Jason Webb, third child of Miles Webb, the first settler in the Cumberland district, which is now almost entirely populated by hia offspring. Old Miles Webb did not do so much toward increasing the popula- tion, having added but six to its num- ber—three boys and three girls. Jason, who was 81 years old when he died, -Saw no fewer than 444 direct descend- ants, He began with nineteen chil- dren. From these sprang 175 grand- children, 150 great-grandchildren, and an even hundred great-great-grand- children, all living. Next in the order of number of descendants comes Ja- son’s younger brother, Miles, who is still living at the age of 78. Miles is still as full of vitality, apparently, as any of his descendants, who number more than 400. He was the father to twenty children, two of whom died in early life. There are 165 grandchil- dren, 150 great-grandchildren and ninety of the fourth generation—a to- tal of 423 descendants. “Aunt Polly,” the second child of the original patri- arch, ranks third in this remarkable family.. From her children sprang 110 grandchildren, who made Aunt Polly great-grandmother to seventy and | great-great-grandmother to forty—a total of 230 descendants. These three alone, therefore are responsible for more than a thousand inhabitants of ; Cumberland county. Another daughter cf old Miles, Aunt Sally, has 208 de- scendanis. There are thirteen of the first generation, eighty of the second, sixty-five of the third, and fifty of the fourth. Aunt Sally is an active old lady of 75 years. Aunt Letty, the old- est_of the children, who ts now hale and hearty at the ripe old age of 90 | years, scores the mnodest total of only | 201 descendants, She began with eleven children, and there are ninety, sixty and forty of the succeeding gen- erations respectively. The least pro- lific of all is the youngest child, Wii- liam, but even at that he can boast of 166 Kentuckians who owe their exist- ence to him. He has eleven children, seventy-five grandchildren, fifty great- grandchildren and thirty great-great- grandchildrea. By blood and affinity there are in the county of Cumberland nd the country adjacent thereto no er than twelve thousand persons in- cluded in this family fold. If this ts not a record there is some other re- markable family to be heard trom, EARL RUSSELL’S WIT. Neady Tongue of England’s Latest Lord Chief Justice. Cne day (a legai correspondent writes) before the late lord chief justice took sick, he was sitting in court, when another barrister, leaning across the benches during the hearing of a trial for bigamy, whispered: “Russell, | what's the extreme penalty for big- | amy?” “Two mothers-in-law,” in- stantly replied Russell. On ons oc- casion Lord Russell went to help the Liberals in a certain campaign. He began his speech of set purpose with some’ very badly pronounced Scotch. After the confusion caused by his ap- parent blunder had subsided, Sir Charles Russell (as he was then) said: “Gentlemen, I do not speak Scotch, but I vote Scotch.” Tremendous applause followed, whereupon Sir Charles pro- ceeded “and I sometimes drink Scoteh.” With this his hold on the audience was secured, Although unrivaled in the ert of cross-exsmination, on one oc- | casion he was distincely beaten by a Witness. “What is your age?” he asked. “It is my age you are asking?” | replied tho witness. speak up act! ved otal i the— does not ¢ of yours. | Well,” | my twelfth | “Don’t trite member yo (true.

Died for Her Puppies. A largé barn in the rear of Miss Mary Wicken’s dwelling at 817 Eas? Washington street, was discovered in a mass of flames, says the Indianapolis News, and when the department ar- rived the structure was in ruins.
