Wonderful Sense Of Smell.

How infinitely minute must be the
particles that emanate from the object
which the dog is tracking? Yet matter
is extremely divisible. The tenth part
ef q grain Of musk will continue for
years to fill a room with its odoriferous
particles, and at the end Of that time
will not be appreciably diminished in
weight by the finest balance. A cubic
inch of air rising from the fame OF
Bunsen burner has been found to con-
tain no fewer than 4s9, 100000 dust par
ticles. A drop of blood which might
be suspended from the point OF a
needle contains about million of red
fattened corpuscles. Still, though mat
ter is marvelously divisible. the olfac-
tory nerves are infinitely more sensi-
tive.
Much has yet to be investigated with
regard to the differentiation OF the
points in these nerve so that they may
discriminate with such apparent mirae-
ulous accuracy; yet even the resni1s
in the scent Of dogs show how mar
velously fine is their discriminating
power. Our sense Of smell, unless IN
the trained chemist, is not even SO
acute as that Of the semi-saVage. Ihe
aboricines Of Peru can, in the darkest
night and in the thickest woods, dis
tinguish respectively a white man, a
negro and one Of their own race by the
smell. Much we have gained by civil
ization; but not without some loss TO
our bodily energies and senses. Mans
recuperative power after an injury IS
in the inverse ratio to- his social ad-
vancement. Similarly he seems to De-
come less acute and delicate IN the
sense Of smell as he fares better and
lives more comfortably. The fa1thtui
dog puts him to shame.-London Mail.

Seeing the Beauty.

Some persons are always looking for th;;
dark things Of life. and OF course they tiad
what they are looking for. Others are al;
ways looking for the bright things: and
they find them. Bishop Nicholson, of Mil
waukee, relates that during the first year,
0. his ministry parish matters, social and
financial, were in bad way. and straight
ening them out was slow work. He va:
much discouraged one day when, having
gone to New York on business, he stopped
to- to look at the Brooklyn Bridge, then
building. A man, covered with dirt. was
working on the abutments. 'SThsts pretty
dirty work you are engaged in" said the

altitude of 1000 feet, extends over
many hundreds Of square miles. Ex-

However, the monotony Of an other.

unique sight Of the crescent shaped
sand dunes, which often attained fifty
feet in length, moving slowly along
before the light breeze. Not one, but
hundreds Of them; every direction
in which one looked from out the car

THE LOCAL NEWSPAPER:
faterests OF Every Town Require That 1t
Shall Be Supported.

Shall Be Supported.
It is to the interest of every town to
support a good newspaper, not through
local pride alone, but for practical
business reasons. A newspaper is con-
stantly doing ten times as much for
its town as it could ever hope to get
pay for-more than it could charge for,
if it would.
The more prosperous paper is the
more it is able to do. Show us good
weekly paper, full Of live local ads.
with a general circulation throughout
the county, and we will show you an
up to date, prosperous, progressive
community.
Show US a community that persist
emily proceeds on the idea that the ed
itor of the home paper can live on the
"pi" that accumulates in the Office,
whose official bodies think it a waste
of public money to throw him bit Of
public printing occasionally at living
prices, whose citizens have come to re-
gard it as one Of their inalienable
rights to WORK him for long-winded
obituary notices and "in memoriams,"
with three inches Of hymn book poetry
at the end, to say nothing about an oc-
casional notice of a lost cow or some
cotton seed for sale, and We will show
you a community that is living from
hand to mouth and Is always on the
ragged edge Of adversely.
People ought to stop to think about
these things. 1t is an important mat
ter. 1t is their own good that Is In
volved, the welfare and progress OF
their community, therefore Of them
selves.
A local newspaper is absolutely nee
essary to any community. No mer-
chant, no grand jury, no town council
that spends every year all it can afford
with the home paper, whether that ex-
penditure is actually necessary or not,
makes q wiser. more profitable invest
ment.
They are not "giving" the home
paper something. On the contrary, it
is earning every cent it gets, and more,
providing it is a paper~worth picking
up in the road.
And if it isn't that sort OF paper it IS
| usually the fault Of the town IN which
it is published.-Atlanta Constitution.

That is to say, you can get ne satstac-

what feve1ish thing we call life, unless you

has told US that we have no lamp with
