OTIS JISSUIP SEHOTm, The only Paprr ptihlloheil on ilir War.in JL llnin.wlrk Rail road Iwtwerft Itnm.wWk and Knotninn. THE BLUE GLASS THEORY. Uime poor devil unearthed ihe llic ory some time ngo that the odorous onion was a Meep prodnrcr. and then th(- world ate those oscalents before retiring in order to woo the quick’np l'i-onch of nature’s sweet restorer. The "hole country became a hot-bed, and whole cyclones and herricanes were ‘H'ftvy with the breath of onions. But. it was a wicked snare. It ) ronght jiot f eep, and the vegetable with the reckless odor wns abandoned. Now wo have ft new theory—the bine-glass cure. It is claimed that the rays of the sun focussed through n pane of bluo glass will cnre r’leumn t m and kindred ailments. Experi r -nts have proven, so they say, that this cure is one of the most wonderful ever known, and that it promises to supersede physcians and physic. We confrss to a love cl the theory. It h a pretty by annbeams. And so simple. \\ e begin to think of tho days when the primitive man lived and cured his complaints with the simple bark and herb. We imngine ourselves tl ating back to tho good old time when sttgar eonted pills and cholygogue were un known How much belter than having your back rubbed with red hot liniment would it be to turn your back to the ! blue-glass window and let the genial sunbeams play upon it! See bow easily backaches could be cured And toothache! C- uld anything be more blissful than to lie down and fill your mouth with warm blue sunbeams* Give us flic blue-gins* cure Let us bask iu the cerulean sunshine aid thus heal ourselves.— ltridges Smith’* Paiter, LITTLE* MEN. Not long Leforo bi H death Canon Kingsley drew attention to the surpris ing number of small young men to be seen in an English crowd.
