The supervisors in the different
towns in Suffolk county, New York,
are authorized to pay a boun,y Of
twenty-five cents for every p)ssum
killed. Each supervisor had his own
way of determining whether they were
getting a fair return for their rlonev.
For instance, Supervisor Tileston re-
qulsed the tail of the postum to be
produced as evidezcs OF death, while
Supervisor Smith of Shutdown, which

the production of the two ears Of the

tain Shutdown boys and several Hunt

tails for ears. For every 'possum tail
surrendered by a Smithtown laI the
huntington youth would pass over two
'possum ears. Then the boys would
separate, to present themselves at the
ofhce OF the supervisors of the respect

Women of Nervous Organization Strongly
Affected by the Perfume.
There are some constitutions that
cannot stand perfumes The patehouli,
perfume readily recognized in India
ink or the India shawls, is to some
persons almost rank poison. Ladies
have been known to faint after wear
ing India shawls or painting with
India ink, and a satchet which has
patchouli as the aavoring essence is to
many persons extremely unhealthy.
Whether the perfume causes nervous
complications or excites nausea cannot
be ascertained, but it is certain that
come constitutions will not bear it, and
lady finding herself losing appetite
or strength, or having headaches that
have no explained cause, might look
for the reason in some perfumes that
she is in the habit of using.
On some persons the musk has a sim
liar effect, others are sickened by some
one or other of the volatile oils derived
from flowers, while more rarely the
odor from apples or other fruit has an
unfavorable effect on persons of pecul-
lar temperament,
As "A rule, whatever pcrfums is I'M

avoided, but as exceptions occur to
every rule, nervous debility, which
cannot be accounted for may some
times be explained by the use of a well
