They May Warn You of Places Where
 Disssss Gsrms Lurk.
 Even a bad odor has its uses. Sci- entists say that tfe offensive smell which comes from decaying and dis ease breeding matter is in reality one of nattre's measures of preparedness and of prevention.
 Offensive odors indirectly prevent the spread. of epidemics by calling atten. ton to the breeding place of the dis ease. They give warning that some thing is wrong. and they persist in this warning by becoming more and more offensive until the wrong is righted.
 The odor does not convey the germ or communicate the disease. beca use in most cases direct contact is neces sary to do this, or the infection is communicated by some substance talk. en into or brought in contact with the body. But it does tell where the dis ease exists or is likely to exist. It also gives warning of tainted or unfit food. as the nose is intended by nature to be one of mans chief allies in the fight for health.
 Some have even gone so far as to state that mothers should not dis courage or forbid children smelling their food before they eat it. The tendency to do this is said to be d natural one. The nose is not placed above the mouth by accident It was designed in primitive man as a guide post for his stomach, and it is still a good guide.-Louisville Courier-Jour nal

 Stub First
 In A big store 6 woman was paying with a check for some goods she had just bought. and she was carefully hll- ing In the stub of her check book first "Oh. don't stop for thatr' urged her shopping companion. who was in a hurry. You can do that when you get home"
 Unmoved, the careful woman fin. ished the stub with special care, then wrote the check, gave it to the sales man and said to her impatient friend. Before 1 was married l took care of some of my fathers accounts. The first time he ever asked me to fill out set of blank checks for him so he could sign them he told me: One rule you must always observe-write the stub first. Make VOW to yourself like unto the VOW of Jephthah. that you will never write check until the stub is filled. If for any reason you should fall later to write the check II would be simple matter to cancel the stub, but if,you write a check and leave the stub blank you open the door to a hundred chances of mistake. No ones memory can be trusted on that subject. Never try to trust yours. Let the law of "the stub first" be to you as the law of the Medes and the Persians.' l have always found 1t per factly easy to follow that rule, and that is one reason I have a bank &C., count today. My husband is never afraid l will make him any trouble with 1t.

Milton mentioned tie cornorant in

bird to Satan. The cormorant has Il
habit, after diving, of perching on q
tree or rock with outstretched wings
as though it We're hanging itself out

this attitude for long time.
Cormorant fishing is carried on by
certain classes Of the Japanese at
night, and in their boats they carry
Gra2ierS with flaming wood fires to
attract the fish. 1t has been written

professional fishers and allows them
free access to certain forests that they
may have wood to feed the fishing

CLOSE OF A PERFECT DAY"
Picnic That is Altogether

Rather, let there be skillet in the

summer it requires bat the late after
noon, with such borrowing of the night
rs is necessary for the journey home.
You leave the street car clanking with
your bunaleS like an itinerant tinnan.
You follow Il stream, which on these
lower stretches, it is sad to say, is al
ready infected with the vices of the
city. Like many countryman who
has come to town, it has fallen to dis
sipation. 1t shows the marks Of the

err. You cross it in the mud. Was it
not Christian who fell into the bog be-
cause of the burden on his back? Then
YOU climb a yillainously long hill and
pop ont upon an open platform above
the city.
The height commands a prospect to
the west. Below is the smoke Of thou
sand suppers. Up from the city there
comes the hum of life, now somewhat
fallen with the traffic of the day-as
though nature already practiced the
tune for sending later her creatures eff
TO sleep. You light fire. The baskets
diSgorge their secrets. Ants and other
