DELICACY OF SMELL.
Men Found to Distinguish odOrs Quicker
Than Women.

Very careful experiments have late
ly been made TO test the delicacy of
the sense of smell in human beings,
says the Gentleman's Magazine. A
series of solutions of five different sub
stances was prepared. each series be-
ing so arranged that every solution
was Of half the strength of the pre-
ceding one. These series were ex-
tended by successive dilutions till it
was impossible to detect the odors.
The order Of the bottles containing
these solutions was completely dis
arranged, and the test consisted in
the attempt to classify them by the
sense Of smell alone. An equal num-
ber of male and female observers were
selected from the best apothecaries'
shops, and each was required to ar
range the bottles. The males were
able to detect the smell of the nitrate
of amyl in the solution of one part
to 783,000 of water, and the females
were able to detect it in the solution
of one part to to 81, 900 of water.
The oil of wintergreen was detected
in about the same proportion and to
the same extent Of dilution. There
was, therefore, very great prepon-
derance in favor of the males as to
the sensitiyeness and discrimination
OF the sense of smell. This is Ger.
tainly an astounding fact!

NEEDED INVENTIONS.
Rich Prizes Waiting for Americans Who
Will Solve Problems.

For every ingenious young Ameri-
can, rich prizes are waiting, not only
for great discoveries, but also for lit
tie things, simple improvements on
the things We have, says Franklin j.
Forbes, in Success. Whatever occu-
patton he may choose, he will find that
that calling is in need of men who
can think of something new and bet
ter. For the men who have thought
Of new things, however simple, there
have been, in recent years in America,
rich material rewards. Such a man
was Hayward Augustus Harvey, who
recently died a millionaire. His ia
ther was the village blacksmith in
jamestown, n. Y, early in the last
century. Harvey saw how slow was
the work of forging small things on
an anvil, and sought to do it by labor
saving machinery. He became the
pioneer in screw machinery and au-
tomato pin machinery. He revolu-
tionized screw-making. The gimlet-
pointed screw was his. His last i'm
portant discovery was the armor-mak-
ing process which bears his name. He
took out 10 patents-not very many
for a life of 20 years, but he did not
rush to the patent office with every
half-conceived idea. No fortune was
ever more honestly earned or Justly de-
served than his. Like many other
inventors, he showed his fellow men
how to livesimply.
Concentrate your mind on the sub
ject of needed inventions for five min
utes, and you can think Of dozen
things, any one of which would make
its inventor rich beyond the dreams
of avarice.

NEVER HAD A CHANCE.
At Least Most Victims of Misfortunes
Think They Never Have.


Probably nine out of ten mer past
middle life. if asked how 1t happens
that they are to-day only barely earn
ing their living. would tell you that
they ''never had a chance" " says o. S.
Marden, in Success, that they were
kept back, that circumstances were
against them, that they had no OPP
portunities, such as other boys around
them had, or that they did not have
the proper schooling, or else plead
some similar excuse
The probabilities are that oppor-
tunity did visit every one of these men
more than once in theiryouth or early
manhood, but that they did not see
that all good chances consisted in do
ing everything they undertook cheer
fully, promptly and just as well as it
could be done.
As boys they did not look upon ev-
cry errand as a chance to be polite,
prompt, energetic; on every lesson in
school as foundation stone in their
success-structure They did not
not think that the demoralizing hours
of Incidence and shiftlessness which
they were weaving into the web of
their lives would mar the fabric for
ever, and reproach them through all
time. They did not realize that the
impudent reply to their employer,
the carelessness and Indifference
which they slipped into their tasks,
would come out as ghosts, in the fu-
ture, to mar their happiness and sue
cess. They looked upon every duty
shirked, the minutes they cut off from
each end Of day, as so much gain.
They did not realize that these things,
which seemed so innocent, would grow
into giant defects which would mar
their future success.
They did not think that their slip
shod methods, their careless attire,
and their aggressive manners, would
lie as great bars across the path of
their future success, and keep them
back from the goal of their ambitions.
They do not think that all these
things were the real causes of their
being fixtures at salaries of $40 or SIS
a week.
They did not think that these SEEM
ing trifies in youth would doom them
to be perpetual janitors, clerks, or
farm hands, and that it would be al
most impossible in maturity to out
grow the defects of their youth.

Marriage in Germany.

1t is impossible for young people
to marry in Germany without the con-
sent of their parents or legal guar
dians. Certain prescribed forms
must be gone through or the marriage
is null and void. When a girl has
arrived at what is considered mar
riageable age her parents make a
point of inviting young men to the
house, and usually two or three are
invited at the same time so that the
attention may not seem too pointed.
No young man, however, is invited
to the house until after he has called
at least once, and thus signifed hi:
wish to have social intercourse with
the family.

IDEAL, PHYSIQUE.
Few Persons Have the Measurements Of
Proper Proportions.

"The tailor who spends his life in
taking human measurements could
probably tell an interesting story
about the decline physically of men
and women said "a man who takes
deep interest in physical culture
and other processes Of tending to ar
rest deteriorating conditions, to a
New Orleans Times-Dcmocrat writer.
81 doubt if the measurements taken
by tailors will show many perfect men
and women. Too many men are wear
ing II collars and too many women
are short on waist dimensions. ! was
gIanciEg through Fourman's book a
few days ago, and | was struck by
the dimensions agreed upon by the
best and most authentic authorities
for physical perfection in both man
and woman. Take the measurements,
for instance, Of the perfectly proper
toned man. with a height of six feet
p inches; girth of chest, 40 inches ;
girth Of waist 3S inches: length Of
upper leg, li9 inches; length of low
or leg. lil inches; largest girth Of
thigh, 224 inches: girth Of calf, lG
inches: length Of arm. % riches, and
weight, 1870 pounds. Go to he tailor
and ask how many men come up to
this standard. | imagine that one
would spend much time before finding
the perfect physical conditions in con-
junction with a single man.
"The fact Of the business is. that
these proportions are the result of
jdealistic theorizing. A man would
be perfect, indeed, physically, who
could even snow reasonable approx
imation Of this standard. Our tall
or's records would probably disap-
point us badly, and we would likely
become confirmed believers in the doc
trlne Of physical dcgeneracy in so far
a. member, Of our sex il concerned.
Man has been dwindling somewhat
even in the range of ones own mem
Ory. One need not go TO the tailor
nor to the vast wealth Of statistics
which have been compiled by persons
who take a peculiar interest in mans
| physical aspect. One is conscious of
being smaller than ones father. and
less robust, and lacking in that hardi-
ness OF temperament found in the
sire and grandsire. Yet the tailor's
record will probably show a few iso-
lated instances where men have pre-
served the proportions found in the
| physical measurements of the per-
feet man. And this, after all, is the
goal toward which physical culture
is drifting. 1t is not so much ques-
tion Of larger men in stature, but
rather a question of men perfectly
balanced ysically-men whose parts
will approximate at least the equil-
ibrium found in the perfect measure
ments of the physical culture doe
trinaire. If one must weigh 100
pounds, and stand up to a height of
over six feet, one might as well give
up on the start. But one may at least
approximate the ideal proportions,
and this is what physical culture pro-
poses to do"
