LYON COUNTY TIMES.
OFFICIAL psSsR OF LYON COUNTY
JOHN NJ. CAMP -.


Dr. Wagner tells us that habitual
month breathers can be at once rec.
ognized. as the practice stamps itsei
indeIibly on the physiognomy. The
retracted lips, open mouth, receding
gums, protruding teeth, diminished
size OF the oritices of the nostrils, the
wrinkles of the outer angles of the
ewes. aud the lines extending from
the wings OF the nose 10 the angles
of the mouth, gives the persons al
dlcted to this habit a silly, and some
times. idiotic expression The nasal
ducts, being vacated, like dlsused
roads that grow up to grass and
weeds, become the seat OF polypu-
and other diseases; The sense OF
smell is greatly weakened or alto
gether lost; the contour Of the nose
is changed, and il acquires an unde-
veloped or atrophis appearance. The
sense of hearing may be affected, the
injury ranging from slight impair
ment to total deafness through habit
ual mouth breathing. According to
Cassells the sir must pass through
the nose, Otherwise it cannot reach
the tympanic cavity. Dry sore
throat is one of the most Distressing
disorders resulting from the habit
under discussion. The practice
known as "hawking" is a familiar
symptom of this trouble. The haw-
ker is always mouth breather, aud
the unpleasant sound is made In the
effort to dislodge the hard, dry ana
tenacious mucus from the pharynx
and postericr wall Of the mouth. In
all cases where the habit is caused by
nasal obstruction, there is a voice
disturbance, an imperfect resonance
from the air or tone which passes
upward into the nasal cavity, but
finding no outlet there. returns and
escapes through the mouth, the in
dividual then being said to speak
through his nose. The disagreeable
habit of snoring is caused by sleep
ing with this mouth open. The nose
breather never snores.

Everyone who ever visited Bar
Mans Museum when it stood at
Broadway and Ann Street, and as
tonished Young America with its
real and stuffed wonders, must note
with astonishment and alarm the
great falling off in the production Of
natural eurlosities. The stock Of
Barnum collected twenty years ago
is still doing duty in the museum Of
the country, without half a dozen
additions worthy Of note. 1t is not,
however, to gossip about the antsq-
uity of natural curiosities of the
present day that this article is writ
ten, but rather TO tell Of some of the
personal pecEliarities Of the we'll
known legion. For within the last
few years l have had the pleasure
Of the acquaintance Of nearly all of
them. This is an honor not easily
attained, for they are shy Of making
friends, being duly impressed with
the lesson taught by Dickens in the
"Old Curiosity Shop" that they
must not make themselves too com
mon, for fear of spelling their bust
ness. But it is entirely another
question when the seeker after an
introduction is a newspaper man.
Nothing delights in the average

tain reporter has braVed the foul
doors Of Bowery museums, been
squeezed and stepped on and elbowed
by unsavory crowds, has run the
risk of pickpockets, and incommoded

his reward. He knows six separate

These wheels ran around the INSIDE
Of two steel tires, each ten feet in
diameter, aud which rest upon the

by a set Of Wheel-elamps. The car
is designed to hold fifty people, and
