Free POSTAGE.

Under date of September %, 1904,
United States Commercial Agent
Ernest l.. Harris, Eibenstock, reports;
that the secretary of the German i'm
perial post has issued an order permit
ting the 145 chambers of commerce In
the empire to send all their official
matter free of postage charge. This
undoubtedly means a great saving of
current expenses to these bodies as
whole. German chambers Of com
merce stand under state supervision,
and this step is looked upon as another
proof OF the desire Of the government
to promote IN every way possible the
commercial and Industrial interests oil
the country at large.

AUTHOR OF STANDARD TIME.

Few young persons of thirty-five or
more who can remember the annoy
ance of gaining four minutes by chang
ing to philadelphia time" at every
crossing of the Hudson and Of losing
twelve minutes when journeying east
ward into Boston time" knew to
whom they mainly owed their deliver
a1cc until the death on Saturday of
Prof. Charles F. Dowd, of Saratoga,
the author of the STANDARD time" sys-
tenn.
DR.. Dowd was a teacher. He made
no fortune by his great service, but
remained one Of humanity's unknown
belefactors. Before his work there
were hundreds Of time standards
Scarcely two railroads used the same
Now there are four-Eastern, Central,
Mountain and Pacific. And as each
Is just an hour from the next a travel
Ter can reckon time anywhere, even
without resetting his watch
The earth's circumference of $50 de-
grees is divided into twenty-four time
belts of IS degrees each, corresponding
to the hours. These are disregarded al
sea. But in Europe standard time is
generally used except in France,
which for some purposes still clings
to paris time" Only Italy has gone
so far as to print the afternoon hours
upon it's railway timetables as "l3
O'Clock" and so on up to "24 o'clock" at
midnight.

THE SENSE OF SMELL.
Sapages Have it keenly Developed,
But Lose it in Cities.

London Spectator.-Even the range
Of vision may be out-distanced by that
of smell, if it be true, for instance,
that the Spice islands of the Indian
archipelago are to be distinguished far
out at sea long before they have been
sighted from the lookout. According
to Humboldt, the Peruvian Indians
on the darkest night can not only per-
ceive the approach of a stranger while
still far distant, but can tell whether
he is negro or an Indian or a
European. The Arabs of the desert
are said to smell fire 80 or 40 miles
away. The Indian of North America
certainly uses his nose in the pursuit
of game, and Maj.-Gen. Baden-Powell
tice TO white men in his treatise Oh
scouting. But it is not only savdges
and uncivilized tribes who surpass
us in the efficiency OF this particular
organ and in the attention which they
pay to it's education. With the
Japanese incense shutting" has
reached the dignity of ceremonial.
At a kikiko party your host produces
on a special tray some 20 or more
different kinds of incense, from which
he selects five, to each one of which
he gives different name, founded on
some literary allusion, each name re-
ceiving number.
There is another reason for which
it might be worth our while to pay
more attention to this particular sense
for it's mnemonic suggestiveness.
The faculty of memory plays a rather
queer part in connection with that of
smelling, although around it ouf,
mental associations cluster mora
strongly. The Indians in the north
west will scrape off the inner bark of
the red willow, drv it in the sun, and
then rub it between their fingers till
it resembles a coarse-cut tobacco. An
American could tell you that it smells
tired" and if you lit pipeful of it
in an English smoking-room some one
would probably complain that the
carpet was on fire. But there are
others for whom it will summon up
pictures that are as vivid and con-
vincing as the phantasmagoria of a
haschisch-e or the opium dreams
of De Quincy.
To them a single Whit of the pun
gent incense of kinni-kinick will bring
back the rush of tumbling waters be-
tween steep cliffs, the throb along the
keel of canoe as it races past
smooth bosses Of green jade, where
the flood is boiling over the Preacher
ons powders beneath; the quick
stroke of the paddle as the bow
swerves from the jagged, foam-ringed
teeth of splintered rocks. Or the soft,
padding tread of the moccasin in the
pine forests, the moaning below OF
the COW moose and the crackle of the
campfire at night when the luminous
fan of the northern lights is simmer
ing in the dark blue vault above Or
the long narrow trails that wind under
giant trees and dip through the
gulches of the Rocky moutains, the
dingy tents of blue-chinned, black
mustached, rusty-booted prospecters
and pig-tailed Cinnamon, the trumpet
call of the wild swans on the great
lakes, which cries TO us that the red
gods are making their medicine again
and that ION the other side OF the
world we're overdue"

A Progressive Town.

The little town of Searchlight
in Lincoln county has organized
an Improvement and promotion
club, to which merchants, min
ers, farmers or anybody else
can belong who has the welfare
of the town at heart and upon
the payment of a small initia-
ton fee and monthly dues. The
association has adopted a set oi
bylaws and the motto Don't
Knock" The association ex-
poets to do much good in the

cation that we may keep pace

A group of stockmen gathered
in the Office of the Overland

Gazette, and the topic ofconver-
sation naturally turned to the
outlook for the season.
All present expressed most OPP
timistic opinions. The spring
storms have proven of inesti-
mable benefit to the ranges. In
the valleys nearly all the precip-
itation has been in the form of
rain and practically all was abb
sorbed by the soil, which is now
SO sodden with water that veg

The huge snowbanks in the

ply of water late in the summer
a foregone conclusion and thus
stock will have ample feed when
the winter comes again.

The Girl Tramp.

The tramp girl stenographer is
something new in the semi-indus-
trial line, and seems to afford a
worthy companion for the tramp
printer. According to a writer
in the Era Magazine, this fresh
type of the female in distress is
more abundant than the public
is aware of. In her failure to OBJ
tain steady employment, the type
writer girl, who comes to New
York, is very apt to become a
lonely, homeless thing of emo con-
tinuing city," known and disre-
spected by business men under
the title of a "foater. - A "foat-
er" is girl tramp stenographer
who lives from hand to mouth
and town to town, who gets start
ed rolling round and does not
want any moss, will not stay in
any position long, simply making
enough in each place to get on
to the next. 1t is an ugly form
of wander-lust. The f1oaters are
held unreliable and firms have be-
come weary of engaging them.
The number of foaters is sadly on
the increase. This is a striking
commentary on twentieth cen
fury civilization.
