BUILDING A CAPITAL CITY. Trouble in Australia Over the Se1ec- ton of Suitable Site
 for One.

Sydney has been the temporary cap ital city of the commonwealth of Aus tralia since it's beginning in January, 1901. But the people of Melbourne were not willing that it should be the permanent seat of government, and a law was passed appointing a commis- sion to recommend a site for capital to be in New South Wales, and at least 100 miles from Sydney, says Youths Companion.
 Eight possible sites were suggested, and recently the commonwealth par lament selected Dalgety, or Buckley's Crossing Place, on the Snowy river, 100 miles northwest of Cape Howe, and about halfway between Sydney and Melbourne, as the place for the new city. The town has population of about 1,500.
 Architects, landscape gardeners and engineers now have an opportunity for building city "out of hand" such as has not been presented since Wash ington was laid out. Many new cities have been built in new countries, but Washington is the only one within a century or so that was destined for a national capital from the beginning.
 The people of Australia are awake to their opportunities. They frequent ly say that they are free to solve their social and economic problems unham- pered by certury-Old precedents; and they have done many things easily which are difficult if not impossible in an older community. It is expected, therefore, that the new city will be modern, with all that is implied by that word; that it will be laid out with a view to future growth, as we'll as with proper allowance for parks and boulevards and all the adornments which go to make a city beautiful
 If the American advocates of civic beauty do not urge the Australians to improve their opportunity to the ut most, it will not be for lack of inter- est. It should surprise rio one if the Australians, sent representatives to this country to learn what has been done here in the way of city building.

Beating Out Disease.

Tn England the old-time cure for smallpox and measles was 8 sound thrashing. There are English people still living who were treated for measles in their infancy by frequent whiprings by their parents.

Picking Railroad Ties.

A Lincoln, Neb, dispatch to the
New York Sun says: The rapid de-
crease in the supply of timber and the
consequent rise in price have forced
western railroad companies to seek
some method of prolonging the life of
wooden ties.
Year, ago tie cost but a few cents.
Nowadays it cannot be bought for less
than 70 cents.
The Burlington officials think they
have solved the problem by picking
the ties, and so confident are they
that it is a paying proposition that a
large amount of money has been ex.
pended in establishing picking plants
at various points.
As the blood of the body is removed
in embalming and replaced by pre-
serving fluid, go the sap Of the wood is
extracted from the ties and replaced
with a solution of zinc chloride. Not
only is the sap taken out, but the solu.
tion permeates the cells of the fibre
and upon drying deposits the mineral
80 evenly that they are protected
against the action Of the outside
moisture to such an extent that the
life of the tie is more than doubled.
Fifty thousand ties a month are
picked in the main plant at Sheridan,
Wyo. The savingis considerable. To
pickle tie costs fror. 10 to y cents,
but whereas Oregon FIR, the lumber
now generally used, rots in four years,
the treated ties last from eight to
twelve years.

The Sense of Smell.

Hsw ip6nirely minute must be 10
PARTICLES that ema nate from the ohIec
which the dog is tracking. says The
London Mail. Yet the matter is ex.
tremely divisible. The tenth part OF
a grain of musk will continue for year,
to fill room with its odoriferous par
ticles and at the end of that time will
not be appreciably diminished in
weight by the finest balance. A Gu
BIC inch of air rising from the fame of
a Bunsen burner has been found to
contain no fewer than $4,000, 900
dust particles. A drop of blood
which might be suspended from the
point of a needle contains about a
million of red fattened corpuscles
Still, though matter is so marVelously
divisible, the olfsctorY nerves are
infinitely more sensitive. Much has
yet to be Investigated with regard to
the differentiation of the points in
these nerves SO that they may dis
criminate with such apparently mir
aculous accuracy. Yet even the re-
suits in the scent of dogs show how
marvelously fine is their discrimina-
ting power. Our sense of smell, un-
less in the trained chemist, is not even
80 acute as that of the semi-saVage.
The aborigines of Peru can in the
darkest night ard in the thickest
woods distinguish respectively a white
man, negro and one of their own
race by the smell. Much we have
gained by civilization. but not with
out some loss to our bodily energies
and senses. Mans recuperatiye pow
er after an injury is in the inverse
ratio to his social advancement. Sim
ilarly he seems to become less acute
and delicate in the sense of smell as he
fares better and lives in more comfort.
The faithful dog puts him to shame.

Res, as II Should be.

All the conditions must be favora
BILE at sleep. The bedroom should be
quiet, dark and airy. In winter it is
better to have the window away up
than to shut it SO that a knife edged
draught shall chill an exposed should
err. The temperature OF the bed
should be agreeable. Getting to sleep
when the feet are cold is as slow a job
as getting to sleep when hungry.
A hot-water bottle in one case and
a piece of bread and butter In the
other will help things. 1 leave it to
you to decide which is for which, says
Harvey Sutherland, in Everybody's
Magazine. A warm bed in winter Is
easily got, but cool bed in summer
is not go simple proposition. How
ever, q sheet made of straw mating,
interposed between the regular sheet
and the mattress, will be found to
mitigate sensibly the horrors Of a hot
night. 1t preserves the sOftness and
springiness of the bed, and yet is
pleasantly cool. without being too
cool. Personally, l find that sleep
comes soonest when have no pillows
at all.
The next thing ia to relax utterly.
Remember that the corner of the jaw
is the citadel of tension. While it is
clincbed no sleep can come. But most
important of all is disposition Of the
mind go that sleep can come. The
reason why we fail in this is the same
as the reason why we fail in other
things: We do not very genuinely
want to succeed. As we lie stretched
out after busy day, there are so
many thoughts that we wantto chase
after that we drop the notion Of sleep
though we know that tomorrow is an.
other day on which we can think. 1t
is all very well to say: Dismiss these
thoughts" How to dismiss them is
the problem that each must solve.
