1t was in the days before railways.
telephones and telegraph lines had
reached the interior of Pennsylvania,
and news Travelled slowly. There had
been a presidential election, and every
body was anxious to learn the result
A crowd had collected at the postoft1ce
In one of the villages. waiting for the
evening mail to come in from a sta
ton sixteen miles distant. At last a
man emerged from the office with a
paper in his hand, and number Of
citizens gathered about the man and
waited In GREATNESS silence until he
had finished reading and had thrown
the paper in the air with shout Of
exultation. Then several citizens de-
manded: whats the news? Who's
elected?'

THE oooR OF sANcI7Y.
A French Writer'S Theory Of How It
May Be Exuded by Man.

DR.. Georges Dumas is the author of
an article in the Revue dc Paris OH
, ''Ihe Odor Of Sanctity." The writer
accepts as true the numerous reported
Instances of sal pts and mystics of the
Catholic church whose bodies after
death or during moments of ecstasy
emitted peculiarly pleasing odors of
various kinds. Then men and women

DR.. Dumas. were ncuraSthenes, and it
is not impossible that the aroma of
sanctity which surrounded them was
! the product of strictly physiological
and chemical changes common to all
men. but present in highly intensified
form in subjects who, so to speak,
burned up the candle Of their existence
| at an unusually rapid rate He says in
part:

great variety of Observation-Disclosures,
Glove, orange. pineapple, rose. violet.
lily OF the valley. yellow amber and

ton of all of these is we'll known, and
chemistry produces them daily for COM
! mercfal purposes. We may therefore
substitute the equivalent chemical ex-
! pressions for the ordinary terms we
have employed and say that orange,
cinnamon. violet and musk owe their
perfume to aldehydes and acetones.
aromatic liquids derived from the alco-
hols. just as the artificial essence Of
pineapple comes from butyric ether.
We have. then, to ask whether the hui
man body can produce odorous COM
pounds Of the kind we have mentioned
and under what conditions. AS mat
ter of fact, it does produce certain
number Of such compounds in the de-
struction of organic matter. which is
the constant condition Of life, in par
ticular acetones and the volatile fatty
acids. butyric. formic, acetic, etc. If

MAGIC MIRRORS.
Peculiar Effects In Some Of the Pol.
ished Bronze Refiectors.

Now and then mirrors of a curious
kind are seen in Europe. They are
called magic mirrors" and are of Jap
anese origin. made not of glass silver
ed. but Of cast bronze, polished on the
face and bearing OH the back raised
patterns. inscriptions, symbolical de-
signs. crests or pictures. When ex-
posed to Il bright beam of light from
the sun or from an electric lamp they
reflect in the light from their polished
face the Image of the pattern on their
backs
This is purely optical property and
has OF course nothing in common with
the fortune telling magic crystals of
the astl"loger or the alleged magic
mirrors of ln.cromancy, yet it long puZ-
zled the scientific optician and even
now is little known or believed. The
researches OF various scientific men
have established the fact that the phe-
nomenon IS due to very minute differ
ences OF curvature in the polished face,
differences so minute that they do not
AFFECT the ordinary use of the mirror
as looking glass and that can he de-
tected only by delicate optical tests.
The only remaining mystery has
been as to how these delicate differ
ences Of curvature were produced in
exact correspondence to the pattern OH
the back. The makers themselves are
often in ignorance of the magic prop
erty and do not know which of their
mirrors possess it and which do not.
The mirrors are cast in molds and aft
erward polished by hand, and it is
held by scientific men that the differ
ence OF curvature is caused by the met
ais yielding unequally under that pres
sure of the tools used in scraping and
polishing. the thin parts naturally
bending more than the thick. This ac-
counts for the mirrors becoming
magic.-Chicago News.

side had completed an inning and the
Quakers were behind 81 runs.
Nothing sensational with either bat or
ball was done. tho two highest individual
totals being contributed by members Of
the home eleven. H. X. Foster was in
fine form with the bat and dehed the
efforts Of the visitors bowling for up
ward Of an hour. His partnership with
Burns was the main factor In the lead of
the EnElishmen, he being responsible for
an innings Of 60, while Burns added SO.
Other dcuble-dgure scores were made by
Pearson and Bale with figures Of 20 and
IS, respectively. while Bird proved very
effective with the ball and captured six
wickets for g runs.
The best batting on the Philadelphia
side was performed by =. 8. White, who
played very steadily and held up his
wicket until he had scored 80 and the
total for his side had reached the century
