THE MONUMENT TO Mr.. DAVIS.
4 Magnificent Design Suggested by a
RiChmOndeF.
THE MEMORIAL TO SIR WALTER SCOTT.
A Description Of This Magnificent Mont
ment-EstIInated that Duplicate Can
be Erected for 100000.

A gentleman Of this city who has Travelled
over nearly all Of the most interesting portions
Of the world suggested last week to a TINES
renorter as a model for the memorial to be
erected in Richmond by the people of the
South 10 the fame of Jefferson Davis the de-
sign of the Walter Scott monument in Edin-
hurgn. built by grateful nation in memory
of their greatest writer. and the one who has
done most b. make his the best known OF all
countries.
The gentleman who proposes this considers
the Scott monument as the finest one e1tant
erected 20 the memory Of any man, and pc,
culiarly appropriate ia all respects 10 stanl
for the iiiustrious statesman who occupied
the highest Office in the gift Of the people OF
the Confederscy during its brief but brilliant
career.
A monument 10 Jefferson Davis erected by
the Southern people must be imposing III SIZE
and proportions small monument, how
ever beautiful and costly. would not satisfy
the public taste But as Mr.. Davis was not
soldier, but a statesman, il would be inappro-
pirate TO place figure of him upon horse
standing upon a pedestal like that of General
Lee. Of which we arc go justly proud.
The monument must be Of great size, and
vet the man must be in it. The scott monu-
ment. OF which is presented here nm engraving
made from photograph by the gentleman
who proposes this design, realizes both these
elements.

Our friend proposes that monument like
the one in the capital of Scotland be erected
TO Jefferson Davis in the centre Of Monroe
Park; that it be built Of our own granite. and
that a marble figure OF the statesman. stand
ing as if TO deliver on address beside a
chair. over which his cloak has been
loosely thrown. and that this be exc
cuted by our own distinguished sculptor,
who has already 30 successfully depicted in
stone the two greatest military heroes of the
Confederacy He estimates that il would cost
little If any. over SlO0. 600 70 carry out the de-
sign in granite with the marble figure on a
pedestal within the monument.
IL is believed that such structure would
be worthy of the fame and character Of the
great chieftain. and that it would he the most

would surpass il beauty and durability the

II is in the form Of an open Gothic spire. sup
ported by four grand Early English arches,
which serve rs a canopy to the marble statue
of Sir Walter and is about two hundred feet
high. A staircase in the interior Of one of

rated in 1916 and cost $40 000.
The architect OF the monument was q self

The Sense of Smell.

The eye is used only for seeing, and
the ear for hearing, but the nose is one
of the organs that serve double pur-
pose. 1t is not only the seat of the
sense of smell, but was intended to be
the principal organ through which man
should breathe. It's circuitous passages,
warm and moist, protect the lungs by
taking the chill from the inspired air
and arresting irritating dust.
The whole nose is not concerned In
the act of smelling. The olfactory
nerves, which alone take cogniZance of
odors, are situated in the upper third of
the nasal chambers, out of the line of
ordinary inhalation. For this reason we
do not usually notice odors unless they
are somewhat strong; but when we sniff
draw the air into the upper part OF
the nostrils and hold it there for few
moments-we become aware of the faint
est scent.-Youth's Companion.

A Snider,A Rand Work.

When the common geometrical spider
has made up its mind to spin web, it
commences operations by inclosing GER
tain area with the foundation lines. To
these radiating lines are fixed, generally
about thirty in number, and all joining
in the center of the snare. When the
radii are finished the spinner proceeds
to weave the concentric lines, stretching
them from one radiating thread to an
other, and forming them Of the silk
thickly studded with viscous drops.
Starting from the center of the web,
however. the first few concentric threads
are without this popularity, the reason
being that the spider likes to sometimes
sit in the middle of its web, and natural
" does not care to be incommoded with
the sticky matter which it prepares for
the special benefit Of its prey.
When the snare is finished, n task
which often does not occupy more than
forty minutes in spite of the complicated
nature of the work, the spider weaves a
cell in some secluded spot close at hand,
connecting it with the center of the web
by means of special thread. This, by
its trembling, gives intimation of the
capture of any insect in the web, and
also forms a pathway by which the
snugly ensconced spider is enabled tc
proceed on an investigating expedition
