SCENT OF ONION. By Any Other Name Than Sulphuret af Aliyle It Would Be as ‘Sweet. Tt is interesting to make inquiry fato tke cause of this unfortunate quelity of the onion. It is simply Gue to the presénce 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 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 heuses before sulphur tablets came into vogue, Now, sulphur, when united to hydrogen, forms suiphuretted hy- drogen, and then becomes a foul-smeil- ing compound. The onion, being sc juicy, hes a very large percentage of water in its tissues, and this, combin- ing with the sulphur, fe is the strong- ly scented and offensive substance called sulphuret of allyle. This sulphur- } ¢t of allyle mingles more especially | | with the volatile or aromatic oil of the onion; it is identical with the malo- corant principle found in asafetida, smells that are nasty. The radish and the ordinary must: ot our tables. both owe their strongly same sulphuret of allyle, which gives them heat and acridity, but not an offcnsive smell, owing to the different arrange- mien of the atoms in their volatile oils. This brings us to a most curi- ly, yet most certainly constructs all vegetable volatile oils in exactly the game way—composes them all, wheth- er they are the aromatic essences of lemons, cinnamon, thyme, rose, verbena, turpentine or m, of exactly the same proportioa, which are 81% of ca. hydrogen, and obtains all the vast seeming diversities that our nostrils | detect in their scent simply by a dif- ferent arrangement of the atoms ln each vegetable oil—Chambers’ Jeai~ nal, z DEPEW’S BAD FRENCH.

There has just Gied in Cumberland county, Kentucky, the oldest son of a family that, so far as any 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 offspringe 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 414 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. in the order of number of Gesce: nts comes Ja- son’s younger brother, Miles, who is sth Hving at the age ot 73. Miles is still as full’ of vitality, apparently, as any of his descendants, who number more than 490. He was the father to twenty chilusen, two of whom died in eatly life.

USE OF BUTTER. {t Improves Health of Children and Pre vents Tuberculosis. No dietetic reform would be more conducive to improve health among children, and especially to the pre- vention of tuberculosis, than an in- crease in the consumption of butter, says an exehange. Our children are trained to take butter with great re- straint, and are told that it is greedy . and extravagant to take much of it. It is regarded as a luxury, and as Biv-. ing a relish to bread rather than in itself a most important article of food. Even in private familics of the wealth- ier classes these rules prevail at ta- ble, and at schools and at public board- ing establishments they roccive stiong reinforcements from economical mo- tives, Minute allowances of butter ars served out to those who would gladly consume five times the quantity. Where the house*income makes this a matter of necessity there is litti? more to be said than that it 13 often a costly economy. nfeebied health may easily entail a far heavier expense than a more liberal breakfast would have done. Cod liver oil costs more than butter, and it is, besides, oftea not resorted to until too late. In- stead of restricting a child’s consump- tion of butter, encourage it. Let the limit be the power of digestioa and the tendency to biliousness. Mo-t children may be allowed tofollow their own inclinations and will not take more than is good for them. The but- ter should be of the best, and taken coid. Bread, dry toast, biscuits, po- tatocs and rice are good -vehicles. Children well supplied with butter feet the cold less than others, and resist ingfuenza better. They do not “catch cold” so easily. Ia spe “of chil- dren, I by no means intend to exclude other ages, especially ung adulis. Crown-up persons, however, take other animal fats more freely than most chil- n do, and are, besides, allowed much freer selection as to quality and quan- tity, HINDOO ECORROWER, Claims He I rned $2 by Fostat’ card.

A curious case of gross supersvition, which jed to the practice of barbarous | cruelty to a little boy, was revealed the other day in a, local police court court in British Guiana. A woman named Ashby of Uitvhigt, a sugar es- tate, the defendant in the case, stated that she had dreamed of a way to cure her little son of certain faults. It con- sisied of boiling an egg and putting it while stiil hot into the boy’s hands. Next morning she proceeded to pxt the suggestion of her dream into exe- cation. When the egg was boiled she compelled the unfortunate child to elesp his hands tightly over it, the inevitable result being that the palms of his hands were badly burned. Women's White Site Waists.
