DISEASE DEFINED BY DOOR
Sense of Smell Relied Upon by Ex-
perts to Determine Nature
of Ailments.

| The acutene IS of the sense of smell
Is far greater in many of the lower an.
Imals, dogs, for example, than in man.
| and they employ it in guiding them
to their food, in warning them of ap
preaching danger and for other pur
poses, says the Spatula. The sphere
of the susceptibility to various doors
Is more Uniform and extended In man
and the sense of smell is capable OF
Great cultivation Like the other spe.
cial senses, it may be cultivated by
attention and practice. Experts car
discriminate qualities Of wines. liquors
drugs, etc. Diseases have their char
acteristic odors. !.
Persons who have visited many diff
ferent asylums for the insane recog
nize the same familiar odor of the In
sane. 1t is not insane asylums alone
but prisons, jails, warehouses;. armies
IL camp, churches, schools and nearly
every household, that have character
lctic odors. 1t is when the insane, the
prisoners and the soldier are aggre
gated In large groups or battalions
that their characteristic odor is recog-
nized. Most diseases have their char
Acteristic odors and by the exercise OF
the sense Of smell they could be utilized
IN different diagnosis.
For example fever has mousy odor,
rheumatism has a copious sour-smell'
Ing acid sweat. A person afflicted
with pyaemia has a sweet nauseating
breath. The rank unbearable odor
OF pus from the middle ear tells the
tale of the decay of osseous tissue. In
scurvy the odor is putrid, in chronic
peritonitis musky, in scrofula like
stale beer, In intermittent fever like
fresh baked brown bread, in fever am
in hysteria like violets OF
pineapple. Measles, diphtheria, typhoid
fever, epilepsy, phthisis, etc., have
odors.

WORTH INVESTIGATING.

The use of hand cream sep
arators is very rapidly grow
ing among farmers who milk
cows for profit. Dairy men
prefer to purchase the cream
and be relieved Of the work OF
separating, and it is much more
profitable for the farmer to do
bis own separating, for he
saves the skim milk on which
he can raise his calves, in add
ton to which he saves the haul
ing of his milk, which alone
amounts in many cases to the
monthly payments required to
buy a cream separator. The
best time to separate the cream
from the milk is while it is
fresh and warm. The cream
separates easier and a greater
percentage is obtained, and the
skim milk is left sweet and
fresh to be fed to the calves.
The u. S. Cream Separator,
sold by the Consolidated Wag-
on & Machine Company, has
geatest capacity, skins the
cleanest, works the easiest, and
lasts the longest. Agents

From what Pierre told him that
night, Jean LATTE knew, as clearly
as though he had remained at Bara-
taria, all that had transpired since his

This had been shortly after Gen.
Andrew Jackson defeated the Creek
Indians at the battle called "Tohope-

after this signal victory Gen. Jackson
had been given command of the Sew

the State of louisiana
IL was now very evident that New
Orleans was to be attacked as soon as
the English could concentrate a suf-
fcient force for that purpose: and
Gov. Claiborne had called a session of
the legislature, besides taking all other
measures in his power toward raising
means for defense. But the Legislators
were slow to cooperate with him; and
the same malcontents whose scheming
had already wrought such harm to
Louisiana were using all possible
means to neutralize the governors eff
forts.
As LATTE listened to all this, he
congratulated himself anew that the

before Grande Terre He felt also that
no time could have been more aus
picious for making the offer he pro
posed to lay before the governor.-an
offer OF service by himself and his
followers. in consideration of pardon
for all past misdeeds, whether actual
or alleged.
When he voiced these thoughts and |
plans to Pierre. the latter agreed I'M

OF advice repeating themselves In La

your own name and rank"
SO back TO Louisiana he sailed, with
his mind In turmoil that gave un.
wonted austerity to his manner and
awed his crew into much speculation
The fever OF his first impulse hav-
Ing now abated. he began to upbraid
himself for having left Pierre, and
wondered If anything evil might have
befallen his foster-brother. Day by
day. as the BLACK Petrol drew nearer
to Barataria, he kept himself busy by
euerying as to what, II any, changes
would be found there, and as to what
progress the war had made
Louisiana, and especially New Or

tined to bear a share In the conflict.

Night and day. thinking matters
over. he resolved that his next step
would be to gather what he might of
men and shipping and wealth, and. in
the hope OF wiping all stigma from his
name, offer these to the Governor of
Louisiana. for use in warning against
the English. And the possibility of
this opportunity being afforded hin.

and men, covering all past offenses-
the rehabilitation of himself before his
