DETECTING DISEASEBY SMELL
Character of a Complaint Easily Rec
OEnizabIe to an Experienced
Nurse Or Doctor.

A physician has many different ways
of discovering what is the matter
with sick people. A flushed face and
quick pulse tell of fever, even before
the thermometer is applied to pa
tient. Certain degrees of pallor sug-
gest consumption. Malarial chills, if
witnessed, tell their own story, but
the victims complexion emphasizes
it. There are the sounds to be dis
covered when the ear is applied to
the heart, in some disorders, while
tapping the chest over a diseased
lung will occasionally reveal situa-
tion, not otherwise discovered, in a
few minutes. Besides these tests
there are many which are chemical
or meteorological, requiring much
more time and expert knowledge.
The list of methods might be extend
ed by adding the judicious use of a
trained and sensitive nose. Speaking
of this possibility, The Hospital re-
Gently remarked:
1T has long been recognized that
both in health and disease character
istic odors occur. The sense of smell
has played an important part in the
evolution of man. Emanations from
animals, exhalations from plants, and
even certain substances of an inor-
ganic character possess the property
of exciting mans -olfactory nerve
endings. Physiological and patho-
logical processes are accompanied in
many instances by distinctive odors.
There are odors peculiar to species.
races, families, individuals and nor
NAL states. The growth of many mi
cro-organisms give rise to easily rec
ognized odors.
'It must, however, be remembered
that the power of detecting odors
varies greatly with the animal, the
race, the sex and the individual SEN
sitiveness. Savage races track game
by the sense of smell. The Scriptures
contain many references to this mat
ter, and clearly indicate that certain
races, tribes and individuals were
supposed to possess characteristic
odor. In the study of disease it is
well that the sense of smell should
be cultivated. The old physicians
were often assisted in their dag
noses by odors, and many an expert
enced nurse even now will recognize
the character of a complaint by the
odor emanating from the patient.
The clinical subject of the study is
one which has been sadly neglected;
but it remains rich in possibilities
for the careful and judieious elm
ician."

Valuable Waste PAPER.

In the treasury department greater
care is required in the removal of
waste paper than in any other gov
ernment Office. All waste paper in
the treasurer's office is inspected by
special waste paper inspector,
whose duty it is to discover any val
liable document that may have been
carelessly misplaced. 1t is then sent
to the waste paper room in the sub
basement, where all the contents of
the wicker baskets are separated into
three piles -pasteboard and brown
paper, and white paper. Two women
do this work year in and year out.
A month ago check for $4,000 was
found in the waste paper room.
From eight to ten tons of rubbish
are removed daily. 1t is sold to the
highest bidder, and the income to the
government from this source is about
$1,000 year.-Washington Times.

SPRAYING CORPORATIONS.
The Senator "SpIuttered" in His
Speech and an Umbrella
Was Called For.

Senator Spooner told a story the other
day, in which the late Senator Ingalls, and
Senator Van Wyck, of Nebraska, fig
ured. Van Wyck was making one of his
characteristic speeches in attacking cor
porations. He had peculiar style of de-
livery, and as he warmed to his subject it
was his habit to move restlessly from one
side of the chamber to the other, contin-
ually talking. He talked so fast that he
often 'sputtered," and senators were care
full to keep out of range of the moisture he
Kissed through his closely-set teeth, says
the Washington Post.
Mr. ingalls, and Mr.. Spooner once sat
directly in front of 'Mr. Punch" as SEN
ator Van Wyck was often called, because
of his resemblance to chat noted character,
when he was delivering an impassioned ut
tecance, and an atom of spray rested upon
the hand of the immaculate ingalls,.
He adjusted his spectacles, carefully
inspected his soiled hand, and deliberate
ly sgnaled for one of the pages to come
to him. Then in one of his famous whis-
pers, which penetrated the entire chamber,
ingalls, said:
"Boy, bring an umbrella for Senator
Spooner and a rubber overcoat for me-"
The incident provoked general laugh
ter, but it did not interfere with Van
Wyck's speech. He simply shifted his
position so as to get beyond range OF
his always faultlessly dressed and sar-
castle COLLEAGUE.

SCHOOL AND CHURCH.

Before 1S41 SO per cent. of English

fallen below 70 per cent.
A man was sentenced recently in
England to months Imprisonment:
for entering ST. Adams abbey while

The public schools in Switzerland
are operated by the government, and
civil service rules are strictly applied.
The teachers, who are mostly women,
are very well paid and never dis

get so old they cannot teach they are
pensioned literally.
Prof. Zephaniah Hopper has been
teaching mathematics in the central
high school of Philadelphia for 4S
years, in some instances to three
generations of the same family. He
is rs years old and is not believed
to have missed a session of his class
in the last two decades.

in Virginia on the misery of unwise

this was especially true if he married
wealth. The bishop said this was his
profound conviction after observa-

A short time prior to the outbreak
of the civil war, Wendell Phillips was
travelling through the west, making
abolition speeches, says the Philadel-

one day was a pro-slavery Baptist

learning that Phillips was on the

himself. ''And you are Wendell

BOOK OF MORMON NAMES.

committee Of the convention at Provo,
as to the proper pronunciation OF Book
Of Mormon names was sadly muddled.
We therefore give on this page the text
Of the recommendation Of the commit
tee which were as follow:
Words OF two syllables TO be accented
ON the first syllable.
Words OF three syllables TO be ac-
cented on the second syllable with these
exceptions, which are to be accented on
the first syllable; namely: Amlici &c
soft); Amulon. Antpas; Antipus; Corr
hor; cumeni; Curelom, Deseret; Gaze
lam; Helaman, Joneam. Korlhor Tuba
10th.
Words Of four syllables to be accent
ed on the third syllable with the fol-
lowing exceptions. which are to be ac-
cented on the second syllable; namely:
Ablnadi; Abnadom; Amallckiah; Ami
nadii Amlnadab.
Oh is always TO be pronounced as X.
@ at the beginning Of name to be
always pronounced hard"
| final always to take the long sound
Of the vowel.
The accepted pronunciation Of Bible
names TO be followed.
II is expected that full list Of prop
er names in the Book Of Mormon win
be prepared and their pronunciation de-
fined, when they win be printed and
furnished to the public. While not a
matter OF vital Importance, yet It will
be admitted that uniformity in pro-
nouncing personal and geographical
names In the Book Of Mormon is highly
desirable, and that was one Of the aims
of the convention al Provo.
