The Sense of Smell.

The sense of smell Is apparently uni- verSal, but stronger in animals than in man. The lowest orders smell with their mouths. insects smell by their hairs. fishes smell in water, and the ncutencSs of the power of smell in dogs and in slvagcs Is well known. Hum holdt Says that the Peruvian Indians could tell in the darkest night whether a person approaching was q European, H negro or an American Indian.
 In those who are deprived of the oth- CT senses. the power of analysing odors is sometimes Hhnormally developed. The Scotch boy, James Mitchell, blind 'deaf-mute. could distinguish the indi- viduals in room into which he was led. John Mossman. draf-mute of Paricrshurg, N. Va, was able to locate oil wells with the certainty of n setter finding cartridges. His nose brought him n fortune of S5OO,0OO as fees for professional smelling.
 Very possibly q dog might he taught to "stand' n nugget of gold in the froz- cn soil of Alaska. as pigs find truilles in perlgord. for metals have q character istie smell. It Is probable that every thing gives off characteristic etIlu- vum. though our sense is not delicate enough 10 detect the most subtle ones. Some gases, like Hydrogen, have no odor. others like chlorine. very per ceptihle one.
 There Is a general Idea that body must possess a molecular weight fifteen times as great as that of hydrogen be- fore 1t can affect the olfactory nerves of human beings, but even that needs confirmation. We frequently confound taste and smell. and 1t Is said that no one can distinguish an onion from apple by taste alone.-IIartford Courant.

 T well knew the man whose skull this was" said the doctor, turning the calyaHum in his hand. He WAS q German-I have forgotten his name and lived In this city many years. dy- ing about 1S15, at the age of so years. He took care of horses for Dr. Parvin and myself along about 1865. and also sawed wood to earn his living.
 He was taken care of by the Catho- lie sisters here in hospital during the last years of his life, and as he had saved his earnings, small though they were, he left them T small farm in Kansas at his death.
 He was a German In the French army, and received this terrible cut from q Russian saber, as he told me, during the retreat from Moscow In 1912. He told me that Baron Larrey operated on him. He was about IT years old at the time, and though his life was saved, he was partially par alyzed on one side ever after, and dragged one foot until the day of his death.
 Here is where Baron Larrey, s years ago, trephined the skull and lift ed up the depressed bone to relieve the brain. The orifice and the saber cut through the skull both closed up with q membrane like q drum head. In dianapolis News

MAKING DELICATE WIRES

Gold wire Is mentioned in connection :, ,lth the decoration of the saccrdotal robes of Aaron. it Is true. yet the oldest pieces of wire of which the world has my Knowledge, says science Siftings, is a specimen made by the Nineyitcs somc St0 yrars F. (. Solid gold drawn wire Is HOW practically unknown in the trade. However, gold wire Is made in the following manner: Silver rods are coated with gold In proportion of , per nent. of gold to the weight of silver to be manipulated When the gliding is performed the rods are about one and tlfrec-fourths inches in diameter by two feet six inches long and weigh about lOo ounces each. The two metals are then drawn down together, first through steel dies and aftcrward through drilled rub,cs or diamonds. The process of drilling the gems Is kept secret A better Idea of the minute ness of some of these horngS may, however, be learned from the fact that naked eye, and only by the aid of a magnitying glass can one be convinced that they really exist.
 For the manufacture of silver and silver gilt wires, the silver is some times bored out and internal copper rods inserted. and they are then drawn together. Wires as fine as q human hair. for example. .Wl3 of an Inch in diameter and even finer. can be gaugcd by instruments termed "micrometers." '" The scales for weighing the gold coin 1T the mint are SD eXQuSitcly fine they can detect the most minute particle added 10 either side of the halancr There are fine woven wire gauges and cldfa. samr of which are made with as many aS 4U000 mcShcs to the square inch.
 Thr more delicatp classes of wires find application in scientific instru- ments So fine are these that il k diff cult to get them mcaRured but the task has been accomplished. and platinum wire has been drawn tn 1-Tooo of an inch. and to eyrn greater tineness. Aluminium wire has been drawn as line aS 1o,5Oo wards 10 the ounce, a size toa fine 10 lse practically measured by any gauge or instrument. While men tionlng practical examples of fine drawn wires. lt may be stated that iron has been attcnuated so that over two and q halt miles in length only weighed one ounce.

The Grave of Eve,

At Jiddah in Arabia, the Mohamme- darS locate the grave of Eve. \ small temple, utterly out of proportion to the Moslem conception of the first woman thcy claim she was 2OO feet tall Is erected above the ashes. The structure is in bad repair, and If 1t rained often in Arabia, Mother Eve would have Il rather damp resting place. As It Is, q big palm tree has forced it's way through the room. The spot Is the mecca of a seven-year pilgrimage.
 On June 8, which Is alleged to be the anniversary of the death of Abel. the doors of the temple remain open all night. On that night the spirit of Eve mourns for the loss of her murdered son. In fear and trembling the pill grlms listen to awful sounds of la mentation emanating from the tomb.
 There are usually In the throng one or two scoffers, who claim to recognize the voices of the priests in the doleful walls. but their opinions do not carry weight with the majority.
