Onion are excellent blood purifier,
and for eradicating boll or any of the

They are good for tho complexion and
a friend who ha a wonderfully clear,

I'eoplo suffering from nervous
trouble nre much benefited by using
these vegetables frequently, elthei
cooked or raw.
When troubled with a bard cough. It
a raw onion is eaten the phlegm will
loosen almost Immediately, and can be
removed with very little effort
Those troubled with wakefulness may
Insure a good night's rest often If, Just
before) retiring, they cat a raw onion.
There are few aches to which chil
dren are subject as hard to bear and
a painful a earache. One of the best
remedies we know of In to take out
the heart of an onion (a red onion Is the
best if It can be had, although, lacking
till kind, any other can be used) and
roast It. When soft put It Into the af

L'nles the cause Is deeper than ordi

INDUSTRIAL SITUATION.
MR CARNEGIE'S VIEW.
The Country on ths Threshold of
Revolution.
BIS
In speaking of existing conditions and ths
Improvement thnt has rnintly bsoa experl
enocd, Mr. Andrew t'nrnngle Is quoted ss
bavluii snld recently iu Nnw York;
'Tlio country nt lnri?e does not renllze the
boom which tins tieeii etnrteil lu the Industrlnl
world. Iron nnd steel mills all over tnc
country luiveooiitrnatml their lull enpneity
(or tovurnl months ahead, and many are
actimlly iiimhle to Inks additional orders.
Hliicn the bulk of those contracts wre book
ed there bus been nn advancx ol fifty oeuls In
put Iron. Cousuinxrs will llud this tall that
they will tre unable to place orders a the
entire capacity ol ths mills of ths oountry
will be occupied. 1 no country Is on the
threshold ot the biKest revolution In bust
line It bns ever experienced and It is not
loiitf wny oft."
1 he Iron Trade Iteylnw, of Cleveland bns
titllhed a number ol Interviews with some
ol the Inritest and mm prominent manu
facturer, in the country. In whloh expres
sions such ns mails by Mr. Cnrui(l have
been made. The Interviews thus published
show beyond the shadow ol s doubt tbatthere
has been nnd still In prosjre-s a KHnernl
and widespread improvement In coudltlous
Kenernlly, which far exceeds the expectations
and most saniiulne hopes ol those who have
been watching closely ths trend ol the
times.
AN INDUSTRIAL ALLIANCE.

Workers Is Proposed.
The Americas Window Ulass Worker's As
sociation has token ths preliminary steps to

tect and advanse the interests ol tnose lu all
countries where the Industry thrives. At the
oomlutf convention of the American associa
tion to be held In l'lttsburg beiflnulng July 8,
this proposition will probably be mnde one ol
the most Important to be cousldered, sud nn
alliance with the orgnuizud workmen ol Del
glum and Franco will be negotiated. A strike
baa been In progress in Ilelglum for several
weeks, and the Americnu workmen desire to
ascertain the true status ot the trouble, with
the object of giving the foreigners fluanclal
assistance. An alliance such as Is now pro
posed, existed between the workmen ol
America and Ilelglum for s number of years,
but lost Its identity some time ngr, because
ot the withdrawal ot tue Americans.

workmen.

Scotch-Irish In Session.
Ths seventh nnnunl session ol ths Scotch
Irish Society ol Americs convened in congress
nt Lexington, Va., Friday. The congress
was called to order by Hubert Bonner, its
president, ot New York. Judge Mcl.nughlln,
rector ol the Uulverslty, introduced tbe ora
tor of the day, Governor O'Ferrall, of Vir
ginia, who extended welcome to ths society.
Mr. Bonner replied.
Dr. Joseph 8. Mcintosh, of Philadelphia,
explained the object of tbe society, which he
said is ol non-seclarlan nature, and threw
much light on (the organisation. Joseph A.
Waddell delivered tbe historic address nt the
day, discussing the settlement of the Valley
of the Hhenaugo by the Hcotcb-Irish people.
The official body ot Washington and Lee
University held a public reception for the

Declined an Honorary Dezree.
Wllberforce University, the oldest institu
tion in the country lor the education of ne
groes, conferred the deuron of I.L. D. upon
President Cleveland. The Pre-ddont has sent
nn autograph letter to President Mitchell, of
Wllberforce, declining the honor. Wllber
force Uulverslty is couduoted under the aus
pices ol tbe Afrlcnu Methodist rhuruh, and
was founded by Bishop D. A. Payne. The
Presldeut bas receutly suown tna Institution
favors, aud It was iu return for these favors
that tbe university desired to confer upon
bim the honorary decree. Tbe President, in
bis letter, is snld to have expressed bis high
aiipreclntiou ot the institution, but, not twins
a college graduate, nud having declined a
similar houor from one of America's greatost
universities, be regarded it ns but consistent
to adhere that course.
Against Union Labor.
The supreme court of Missouri deolsred
unconstitutional the law forbidding the dis
charge by corporations of employes who re
fuse to sevur tueir connection witu labor or
ganizations. This law was enacted two
years auo and provides pennltlos ranirinir
Irom a flueof t5o to 1,000 and six months
Imprisonment. The court holds that this is
class legislation. A uon-unlou man could be
discharged without notice and the law would
not interfere, while a union man could not be
discharged if bis discharge was based upon
bis connection with a uulon.
The Government bns demanded that Rpali
immediately pay the Mora claim ol 41,501),

The biggest uiistuko aud tte funniest
I ever know a merchant to nuike wns
when one of ray friends concluded to
spend $70 to linve Illustrated Blgns
painted on fences and barns In the
country. Tlio pictures were all humor
ous and In colors, to bo painted on a
white background. One was a bullfrog
reaching out after a bug; another a dog,
catching a fellow by tho sent of his
pants, and another a snake nnd a bird,
a sort of a take-off on the "early bird
catches the first worm." Well, the
painter used whitewash, and cheap
colors. After tho first rain tbe bull
frog picture and the words of tho ad
vertisement got wonderfully blended
together, and the bull dng was made
to chow the advertiser's name Instead
of the other fellow's trousers; at least
that Is tho way the blur tiiado It ap
pear. After the second ruin there was
only a vague sort of nn Indication of
an advertisement, the' water having
washed out some words and letters and
leaving others untouched. Tor lu
stance, tlio lino "Purchase your Hug
gles" on ono sign appeared as "Chuso
our Bug." Farm Machinery.
mittlnff Horse's Nostrils.
Rlltting a horse's nostrils Is still prac
ticed In some pnrts of the world, ns In
l'prsls, Mongolia, and even In .Northern
Africa: ftnd pontes with slit nostrils ara
often seen In the Himalayas and In Af
ghanistan. This mutilation Is resorted
to In the erroneous belief that the horse)
can Inhale more air when going at a
fast pace, and also that It prevents
neighing a disqualification of much
Importance during war, or when It Is
desirable to travel as silently as possi
ble. It was practiced In Hungary not
long sgo, If we are to accept ns evi
dence tho copy of a finished sketch of a
horse's head, by the celebrated Zof
fanl, given In Col. Hamilton's work on
horses. It Is rather surprising that the
fashion wns not renewed In England,
for two or three centuries ago, to pre

"If either when yon nre In service In

or when upon any other occasion you
would not hnve your horse to neigh or
make a nolsa, you shnll take a lyste
(band) of woolen cloth, and tye It fast
In many folds about the middle of your
horse's tongue, and believe It, to long
as the tongue Is so tyed, so long ths
horse can by no means nnlgh or make
any extraordinary noise with his voice,

of."
A very barbarous and useless opera
tion for the prevention of stumbling In
horses wns fashionable toward the end
of the seventeenth and beginning of the
eighteenth centuries; this was the ex
posure of the tendon of a muscle that
assists In dilating the nostrils, and
twisting It round two or three times,
when It Is divided. "In doing this you
shall see the horse bring his hinder legs
to bis fore legs almost, when you have
thus pulled and turned the sinew two
or three times." Bitch a statement will

experienced during the senseless opera

"I am now twenty-four years old," said
Edwin Swanton, of White Itock, Goo Itaus
County, Minn., to ifnnUwas repre :itBe
live, "and ss you can see lam not very largs
of stature. When I was eleven years old I
became nfnleted with s sickness which bate
fled the skill and knowledge ot thephynl'-ian,
I was not taken suddenly ill but on tiin con
trsry I can hardly state the. exact time v';a
It began. The first symptoms were pnii s la
my back and restless nights. Thedls'je
Old not trouble me much at first, bu' It
teemed to have sett led In my body to May
and my bitter experience during tilt lust
thirteen years proved that to be the rase. I
was of course a ohlld snd never dreamcl of
ths suffering In store for me. I eompla'nel
to my parents snd they concluded t.rt: la
time I would outgrow my trouble, but ..ion
ihey heard me gronnlng during my sleep
they became thoroughly alnrmed. Me li-.-al
advice was sought but to no avail; I grew
rapidly worse snd was soon nnable to move
stiout snd finally became confined com inn
ally to my lied. The best doctors tlist could
be had were consulted, but did notliing for
me. I tried various kinds of extensively ad.
vert I sod patent medicines with but the rams
resnlt.
"For twelve long years I wns thus s suf
ferer In constnnt ngony without respite,
shscesses formed on my body in rapid suc
cession nnd the world Indeed looked very
dark to me. About this time when all hops
wns gone nnd nothing seemed left but to re
sign myself to my nvist bitter fate mv atten
tion was called to Dr. Williams' Piiik Pills
for Pale People. Like n drowning tnnn
grasping si s straw. In slieerdesperatlon I con
cluded to make one more attempt not tore
gain my health (I dare not to hope so much)

"Do I hesitate to 1st you publish wlmt I
