You Taste Win Your Eves-

The sense Of taste IS divided into
three sections, each of which has
under its charge the distinguishing OF
q special class Of tastes. The fore
part is chiefly sengfble to pungent and
acid tastes, the middle portion to
sweets and bitters, and the back part
to the flavor OF roast meat, butter and
rich and fatty substances. Recent ex-
periments, however go to show that
tho tongue has less to do with what
we call taste than is generally sup.
posed. Our notions as to flavor are
greatly helped by the sense of sight,
smell and touch. Blindfold your eyes
and hold your nose, and you will find
It very dificult to tell whether you are
drinking tea or coffee. OF course
your tongue is absolutely helpless in
distinguishing between one substance
and another if your nose does not dc
its part. which is about four-ffths OF
the work. Thus you really taste with
your eyes and nose.-Angwers.

~ NEW WAY no FErr rREEs. :
Saws Fast Taking the Place OF Axes
In Maine Woods.


The lumbermen are making a decld.
ed departure this season in The method
OF cutting down trees, using saws In.
stead Of axes in telling them.
Up to last year the axe alone was
used by the lumbermen in the Maine
woods. Only the most expert men did
this part OF the work, and men spent
ye ars in the Maine woods before they
were considered sl1illful enough to be
come part of the crew employed in
Telling trees. BY the time a man be-
icame a chopper he felt like second
lieutenant. On account OF the mum.
Der of years spent in learning this
part of the business the choppers in.
trusted with telling trees made un-
usual good wages, the best receiving
nearly double the amount paid those
who were part Of the crew who took
care Of the timber after 1t had fallen.
That method of telling trees has
been found by the numbering compan.
ies to be very expensive, both on &C.
count OF the time required to fell each
tree and the wages paid. Last year
the experiment of cutting down the
trees with saws was tried and found
so successful that this year only a
small share of the men sent into the
woods are expert choppers, or il they
are expert choppers they are not sent
I'm with the understanding that they
are to use their axes in cutting down
trees, but rather in trimming the
limbs after the trees have fallen, or
in cutting up the trees into lengths for
handling in the log drives.
There is another gain, that of time
and wages. 1t is in the amount Of tim
Der saved on the stump. Formerly il
was a common thing to see all over
lot stripped OF tree stumps from
one 10 three feet above the ground
This part of the tree was the very
best, both because 1t was free from
knots and because it was the largest
part OF the tree in girth. BY using
the saw the trees may be cut off near
er the ground and a big saving made
The saw used is slightly different
from the old cross-cut saw, the teetf
being OF a pattern fitted to that work

ag7 CURE EoK INSOMNIA s5s
New York Physician Finds a Way TO
h. fnduce Sleep.


"a well known New York physician
who suffered from insomnia for many
years, has found out a brand new
method whereby sleep can be instantly
obtained The doctor has tried 1t OF
himself and on his patients, and has
never known it to fail. 1t is essential
~ self-asphyxiation, and yet there is nc
possibility Of danger
A long breath is first taken and the
air is kept in until positive discomfort
is felt, which is slowly exhaled. This
is repeated a second and a third time
and in Il minute or so the patient vii
be asleep.
The theory OF sleep that finds the
widest acceptance is that sleep is oc
casioned by exhaustion of the nutrition
Of the brain, due TO its functional ac
tivity when awake. During sleep there
is a flow of nutrition TO the brain, con
sequently an increase of blood TO sup
ply its deficiencies. BY holding tho
breath the head and brain become in
tensely congested with venous blooc
loaded with carbonic acid. The car
bonic acid and the other chemical prod
ucts which yenOus blood contains act or
the nerve tissues. producing sleep, anc
the same as ether and chloroform pro
duce artificial sleep.
If you are truly brain weary do moi
try to replace the thoughts with others
but make the mind a blank as far as
possible. If the brain is excited turn
1t to monotonOus thoughts, recite
poems or verses, or 30 over n journey
which you very much enjoyed, recall
ing even the most trifling incidents
Physicians are more and more arriving
Mt the conclusion that the way Of treat
ing insomnia Is not by means of drugs
There is always the danger Of forming
the drug habit and in most cases drugs
are not necessary. If noises inside the
house or outside disturb one, putting
cotton in the ears viii be found to give
relief. Those who are troubled witt
slecplessness should retire at a regular
hour each night If there is a feal
of not being able to sleep that keen,
one awake one should feign not t
want It, and one viii be surprised {,
find how quickly sleep comes. Always
take a slight meal before retiring I,
rest. A vast number Of cases of in
somnia are caused by empty stomachs

Pocketa ln stocklnaa.

Stocking pockets are the latest fad,
a New York dry goods man said the
other day They are made to hold a
roll Of bills, jewelry and valuables
that can be stored away in a small
space. The pockets are worked into
the top of the hose, above the knee,
and are made with a fastening, so
that there is no danger Of their CON
tents falling out. There are so many
sneak thieves who steal from bed
rooms while the family is at dinner,
from carriages and from other places
where women are obliged to leave
their money and jewelry when they
are not in use, that the safe receptacle
about the clothing of the owner is an
absolute necessity. Pockets are moi
generally found in women's dresses
and the stocking pocket has suggested
itself TO some inventive genius. Il
looks as If these new pockets would
be as safe as any that could be de

WHY SHE WAS CAREFUL.
Wasn't Certain That the Prisoner Was
Her Daughter and the Reason.


Two days go there was at the police
matinee an old negro woman who was
leading witness against a younger
woman, who was said to be her daugh-
ter. The old woman had sworn that
Ter de best oh her b'lief the girl was
not her daughter" This puzzled the
Recorder no little, and it being neces-
sary to get more witnesses, the case
was postponed until yesterday.
Yesterday afternoon Miranda John
son was again arraigned for acting in
a disorderly manner and the old woman
was present. Several witnesses swore
positively that the prisoner was the
old woman's child, and the Recorder
turned to the old woman and said
"Old woman, why did you appear to
be in doubt about Miranda Being your
daughter the other day?'
''Lawd bless yer, honey Ise still in
doubt bout dat matter was the re-

felt that he had great mystery be-
