Shall We Smell by Telephone7

asked Judge Becky the other night
what he thought would be the direction Of
invention and progress the next thirty
years.
Il should say" he replied, '.the ap-
plication of the principle of the tele-
phone to the other senses. A few years
ago the distance at which you could
hear a sound was limited. Now it is
practically without limit. You can
smell flower only at short distance.
l do not see why a telephone for the
nose might not enable you to smell a
rose in New York, even though you were
located in Atlanta. So of the taste and
touch. A new application of the prin-
ciple of the telephone might enable you
to remain in Atlanta and kiss your wife
in London, or taste berry in Paris.
The telescope has already made olum-
sy step in this direction for the sight.
We would have thought the man crazy
decade ago who said you could stand in
New York in 1883 and hear every tone
of a concert in Boston. Quite as crazy
as the man who now predicts that in
1908 you may sit down in Atlanta, see a
theatrical representation in Cincinnati,
smell a bouquet in New Orleans, taste
fresh oyster in Baltimore, and shake
hands with friend in Savannah, all at
the same time. In these days it is only
the impossible that happens. atlanta

Yankee Wit.

Many years ago Pittsburg iron firm
purchased lot of condemned bomb
shells for old iron. The shells were not
loaded, but in order to melt them it was
necessary that they should be broken
up. This was attempted with sledge-
hammers, but the laborers made but
little progress and it was finally given
up as bad job. One day long, slim
Yankee came along and said:

pile of bombs out there broken"
''How much will you pay?"
eve will give you a ftp apiece (six
and quarter cents) if you will agree
to break them all"
"Ill take the contract" answered
the Yankee. The day was a cold one.
and the thermometer down to zero.
The man Immediately went to work,
but disdained to take the large s.edge-
hammer which was offered him. The
Yankee laid every bomb out on the
ground with the hole up. He procured
a bucket, filled them all with water;
then he came into the house, made out
his bill, and said he would call around
in the morning for the money. Every
one was much mystified, but in the
morning their establishment was great.
The water had frozen during the night,
and in the morning pile of scrap iron
was found, as the freezing water had
broken every bomb into at least adozen
pieces

Three or four years ago two residents
of the same town in Michigan who had
always been the warmest friends were
nominated in opposition for the same

agreed that while it was necessary that

horse-thief and thorough scOundrel,

Senss Culture.

The special culture of the senses is too
much neglected by us in this modern
busy life. Probably at no period of HUI
man history has the nervous system gen.
orally, and, more particularly, the sense
organs been so severely taxed as they
now are, but never have they been less
carefully cultivated This is in part, if
not wholly, the cause of the progressive
dcgeneracy of the faculties of special
sense, which is evidenced by the increas-
ing frequency of the recourse to spec
tacles, ear trumpets, and the like ap-
paratus, designed to aid the sense or
gans. The mere use of faculties will not
develop strength-it is more likely to
exhaust energy.
Special training is required, and this
neglected in our schools, with the result
we daily witness-namely, carly weak
ness OF defect in the organs by which
the consciousness is brought into rela-
ton with the outer world. 1t is not nec-
essary to adduce proofs of the position
we take up, or to argue it at length or
in detail. The truth of the proposition
laid down is self-evident. On the one
hand we see the neglect of training. and
on the other the increasing defect of
sense power The matter is well wor-
thy of the attention of the professional
educators of youth.
Muscular exercise wisely regulated
and apportioned to the bodily strength
is felt to be part of education. Sense
culture, by appropriate exercises in Sec
ing, hearing, touching, smelling, would.
if commenced sufficiently early in life.
not merely prevent weakness Of sight,
deafness, loss of the sense of feeling,
and impairment of the sense of smell
long before old age, but by its reflected
influence on the nutrition of the brain
and upper portion of the spinal cord
would do much to reduce the growing
tendency to paralytic diseases, which
are very decidedly on the increase

| A lot of Boston tourists, were recently
travelling in sleeping car, also a Neva-
da traveller. In the morning when the
porter went round to collect his assess
ments on bootblacking there was great
commotion among the Boston tourists.
Some paid him fve-cent nickel, and
those who had no nickle were.compelled
to yield up short bits. All the while the
Nevada man, dressed in ordinary clothes,
sat reading his newspaper. When the
porter reached him he looked up in

eyes, sah."
"You did splendid job: never had
my boots BACKED 50 well before on this
line. Here's three dollars"
When the porter pocketed the money
the Boston people looked up astonished,
and presently it was rumored about that
John Mackey was aboard or Enoch
Strother was out ona campaigning trip.
In few minutes the Nevada man and
the porter met (by chance) in the smok-
lngg-room.
"When does my sleeping ticket run
0ut?''
"Your time was up, sab, at Ogden,
but if you want to ride to Reno, boss,
it's all right, sah.''
The traveller gave the darkey drink
out of black bottle, and the porter
winked continuously for nine seconds
as he drank the travellers health.
