Ice Cream and a Nerve.

Why do we sometimes get an ache in
the nose when eating ice cream. There
is a nerve running along the back of
the nose which doctors call the an
terror palatine nerve. This has a
branch running along the base Of the
nasal cavity and another branch run
ming along the palate. The ends Of
these branches join through finer
branches which run through openings
in the palate near the front teeth.
When we get some ice cream in the
mouth and keep it in front for a mo-
ment so that the irritation produced
by the cold reaches the fine connect.
ing branches the sensation may be
carried to the branch in the nose IT.
ritation of this branch produces the
sensation of pain. We get the same
sensation when breathing very cold
air.-New York American

PRECIOUS MUGS.
The CrueibIes Used In the New York
Assay Office.

Assay once.
In the government assay Office op
Wall street, New York. there is a cor
ner that looks very much like a mug
rack in a country barber shop. where
every customer has his individual mug
highly decorated in gilt letters.
On this rack are perhaps fifty cruel
bles for melting down gold. The cru
cibles are decorated with crude mi
tails and numerals and are the proper
ty of the biggest gold mining corpora
lions in North and South America.
The reason for the individual mugs
is that the clay of crucibles takes up
a considerable quantity of gold in the
process of smelling which otherwise
would be lost to the customer bringing
the gold to the government to be re-
fined. After two or three smeltings
the clay is saturated and takes up no
more gold. When it is finally sue
ceeded by a new crucible it is returned
to the customer to be broken up for
it's hidden gold,
Mugs that are used for melting down
random lots of gold are carefully pre-
served by the government reiners and
sold. Uncle Sam pockets the proceeds
as in these random lots there is no
way of computing to what amount
each of perhaps twenty customers
may be entitled. 1t is only the smelt-
ing concern that sells the government
enough gold at one time to monopoliZe
a single melting that obtains the right
to a mug on the rack. New York

BOSTON HARBOR FROZE.
But That Didn't Keep the Britannia
From Sailing on Time

Boston h rbor froze over in January
of 1874. .ind the advertised sailing Of
the Britannia. then in dock. seemed
surely to be impossible. But the mer-
chants of Boston would not have it so.
They met and voted to cut a way, at
their own expense. through the ice.
that the steamer might sail practically
on time.
The contract for cutting the neces-
sary channels was given to merchants
engaged. like Frederick Tudor. in the
export of ice, but not ice cut from the
harbor. Their task was to cut within
the space of three days a channel about
ten miles long For tools they had the
best machinery used in cutting fresh
water ice. and horsepower was EN-
ployed. The ice was from six to twelve
inches In thickness.
AS the Advertiser of Feb. .. 1914. de
scribed the scene: "A great many per,
sons have been attracted to our wharfs
10 witness the operations and the curl
Gus spectacle of the whole harbor fro
zen over. and the ice has been covered
by skaters. sleds and even sleighs
Tents and booths were erected upon
the ice. and some parts Of the harbor
bore the appearance of Russian holt
day scene
On Feb. 3 the work was done. and
the Britannia. stea ming slowly through
the lane of open water, lined on either
side by thousands Of cheering specta-
tors, made her way to the sea.
