SCENT PREVENTS INFECTION.
Fact Proved by Experience by an Eng
lish Perfume Factory.

@Scent is really more Of a neces-
sity than is generally imagined, says
Mr. Barnett, who has a laboratory Of
flowers in Birmingham, taking into
consideration the fact that for the
past Is years | have never known a
ease Of illness through any infectious
disease out Of my factory, not even
influenza, showing that perfume is a
preventive against infectious dis
eases"
When Birmingham a few years ago
was invaded by a terrible epidemic Of
influenza, Mr.. Barnett's perfume fac
tory was one Of the very few that es-
capped with absolutely a clean bill Of
health.
Among the many wise beliefs ofthe
ancients was one that the scent Of
flowers was conducive to health and

in the Gulf Of st. Lawrence. The
horn is four feet in diameter at the
outer end and II feet long, and the
sound is produced by driving COM
pressed air through a double set Of
valves carrying revolving discs with

trolled by clockwork and every two
minutes a roar is emitted, followed
ten seconds later by a shrek. To OPP

feet long, and three oil engines run
three compressors to fiji these tanks.
On a favorable day this horn can be
heard at a distance Of IL to Is miles,

now One Kansan Told Another What He
Thought of Him.
A curious story comes from Kan
sas, says the New Orleans Times
Democrat, Of a mar who wanted to
tell a neighbor what he thought Of
him without laying himself open to a
suit for damages. So he hit on the
plan Of sending him each day a pos
tai card with only one word written
on it in a large hand, in addition to
tie date obscurely tucked away in
~ corner. The person receiyingthe
cards recognized the handwriting,
and, ~suspecting something, kept them
until they stopped coming, when he
read them consecutiyely in the or
der Of their reception. What he read
was; "Ridiculous old Bill Jones is
the meanest cuss in town" and he at
once instituted a suit for SANDER
sgainst the sender. The latter's law
yer, however, called attention to the
let that the postal card contained
Ridiculous, though mailed first, was
ated the day after the date Of the
ard having the word town" More
over, a careful inspection would show
that after the word ridiculous was
m exclamation point, and after She
word ~town" was an Interrogation
Nsrk, SO that the series Of postal cards
might be made to read: "0ld Bill
Jones is the meanest cuss in town?
Kidiculousr He claimed, therefore,
that instead Of slandering the plain
tiff, his client had defended him from
agander, and this plea was sustained
by the court. But, all thesame, every
body in town insisted that the first
Ysading Of the cards was the correct
eRs, SO that the writer attained his
sheet.
