REAL ESTATE
IN METUCHEN
Dealers Say Valuation Too
High to Draw Buyers.
Special TO the EVENING NEws.

Metuchen, Sept. 20.-Contrary to
general expectations the local real es-
tate market is not very active after
the reduction In Communication rates.
Real Estate Agent Campbell has re-
ported one or two sales but with him
the demand for renting houses seems
quite lively for this season Of the
year. Agent Smith reports that bust
ness Is good. The Pierson Agency
reports that sales are brisk and that
at least a score of people have ap-
piled for houses to rent. Suitable
houses for rent are very scarce and
1t seems to be the opinion of many
that there is an opportunity for the
investor in this line. 1t is argued by
some that values in Metuchen are too
high and that If there is to be any
decided movement in real estate,
prices will have to come down or Gus
toners will locate elsewhere.

COUNTING HEADS.
Tho First Census Was Taken by Mosee
In tho Wilderness

There is a record Of a census in
China as far back as the year 2042
B. G. and Of one in Japan in the last
century before Christ. Under the con.
sttution of Scion the citizens of Ath-
ems were divided and registered in four
classes, according to the amount Of
their taxable property or income. The
Roman census was burdened with
more statistics than any Of these, how
ever. 1t had its origin under Servius
Julius, sixth king Of Rome. and was
an affair Of much solemnity. Every
citizen had to appear upon the Campus
Martius and declare upon oath his
name and dwelling and the value Of
his property under the penalty of. hav-
ing his goods con6scated.
The most ancient statistical record
of census is found in the Bible. The
census was taken by Moses in the
wilderness, and, as shown by the first
chapter of Numbers. the enumeration
must have been very simple. Take
ye," says this account, 1.-The sum of all
the congregations Of the children Of
Israel. after their families, by the
house Of their fathers, with the num-
Der of their names. every male by
their polls; from twenty years old and
upward. all that are able to go forth
to war in Israel: thou and Aaron shall
number them by their armies" This
census was an affair that must have
been soon over. lasting no longer than
one day. being merely a counting Of
the heads OF the fighting men. The
women and children and cripples and
the old men were not included; mel
Their were the Levites numbered among
them" Those who did stand up to
be numbered totaled 6O3,55O. - New

DOORS AND MOISTURE.
A Scheme That Is Said to Improve the
Sense of Smell

A Scheme That Is Said to improve tho
Sense Of Smell.
'The most striking fact connected
with my school career" said the prem
school graduate. Twas a peculiar abil-
ity on the part Of our commandant to
detect the faintest odor of smoke in
room on his daily inspection. The
school I attended was of the military
variety. and smoking was a rather Sc
rlous ofense. No matter how much a
room had been aired or famed with
wet towels previous to the inspection.
the offender was always caught.
AFTER l had received my finishing
touches and become citizen 1 made
so bold as to inquire from what pe-
culiar dispensation Of providence the
ability was given to detect one mole
Guile Of smoke in hundred cubic feet
Of pure air. The old boy smiled and.
binding me to secrecy, impaired the
reason Of his wonderful ability. Then
he took me to boys vacated room
and told me to wet my finger and rub
my nostrils with it and sniff. Lo and
behold, where before there seemed
no faint in the atmosphere was now
detected that smell Of old tobacco
smoke! Since then l have taught
school myself and have used the trick
occasionally, entirely for experimental
purposes, however.
II have also sought the scientific ex-
PLANTATION, but with little success. It
may, however, be somewhat analogous
to the process Of tasting. You know,
it is impossible to taste anything that
is not dissolved in water or is not a
liquid itself. So the moisture on the
nostrils must carry the small particles
of smoke in more or less damp state
to the olfactory nerve ends and thus
make the smell more apparent. At
least this is the only explanation I
have ever found for the phenomenon.
1.-THE same thing can also be used
for detecting other odors, and I have
found it useful on a number Of occa-
sions for this purpose, both in analyt1-
cal chemistry, when only small par
ticle Of certain material is available
for analysis, and in detecting faint per-
fume from flowers that are ordinarily
quite odorless. Record-Her.

walking on an avenue in Washing
ton met lady whose appearance at
tracted me. She suddenly stopped,
looked down and blushed to the roots
of her hair. Her skirt had become
unloosened at the waist.
''Can I do anything for you? 1
asked. b,
She looked wildly about her for a
plan and finally caught one. "Have
you a pin or bit of string in your
pocket?' she asked.
I went through every pocket and at
last found piece of corn colored rib
bon that had bound together package
Of cigars. I handed it to her with an
expression which asked the question,
'Will that do?'
She seized it, at the same time thank
ing me with a nod which plainly
meant, proceed on your way"
If I had not happened to have that
piece of cheap ribbon in my peck
ct, if that lady's skirt had not become
unloosened at the exact moment I
passed her, would now be surround
ed by an entirely different environ
ment
While was sufficiently impressed
with the young lady's appearance-her
face was one that I would not easily
forget-the incident soon passed out of
my mind. Several months passed. One
day made business trip to Philadel-
phia and on my return was sitting
in train waiting for it to move out
Of the station. Hurrying along outside
was the girl had assisted in her diff
Guilty, and on her corsage was bit Of
corn colored ribbon tied in a bowknot.
At that moment the train began to roll
slowly on its wheels.
Two conflicting emotions stirred me
first, I inferred that the girl in meet
ing me had met her fate and was

wearing the ribbon so that if we
should cross each others path again I
would recognize her; second, it was
impossible for me to learn anything
about where she might be found. 1
didn't know whether or no she lived
in Philadelphia where 1 saw her for
the second time, whether she lived in
Washington or some different locality
from either. Why had I not left the
train and rushed after her? Because
l had but a few seconds to decide the
matter, and in that brief space of time
my mind was chiefly occupied with
reasons why I should not do that very
thing. My business required that
should reach home on that train. If
I got out and followed the girl quite
likely would lose her in the crowd
A new element had entered into nv
being. A girl had fallen in love with
me, so I believed, at first sight, and
was wearing token by which 1 might
recognize her. Probably she lived in
the United States, in which at that
time there were more than 100000
people. l had no other information
concerning her except that she was
wearing a bit of ribbon that had held
together a package Of cigars. Was
not this quite enough to awaken in
me strong desire to find her? The
romance Of love is fed by the imagina-
ton. l lived, as it were, in air castles.
The girl wearing my ribbon was the
princess that the prince was hunting
all over the world and to whom he
was at last led by the fairy True,
my first meeting with my princess was
especially unromantic. Nevertheless
wished that some kind fairy would
conduct me to her.
One day I told my friend Calkins
about my adventure. He listened to
me with great interest till I had fin
ished, then exclaimed:
$50 you're the man that was wanted
by Corn Colored Ribbon!"
what do you mean?"
"Some months ago-I don't know
how long-I was reading the personals
in newspaper and came across one
signed Corn Colored Ribbon"
who? What! When? Where?" I
exclaimed excitedly.
(Which one Of those unintelligable
questions do you wish me to answer

wearing the token, but if she had done
so for the reason had supposed she
could not have given me a warmer
pressure of the hand or a look with
more heart in it.
