DOG HAS THE SIXTH SENSE
Scientists Declare Canine Possesses
One More Than Number OF Which
Human Beings Boast.

Human beings, as is well known,
boast five senses; but the scientists
argue that the dog goes one better, and
possesses six. What the sixth sense
is has long puzzled the best authori-
ties. 1t Is something more than the
mere sense of smell, as the following
instances show, according to London
Tit-Bits.
1t is possible, for instance, for n dog
to make its way into a crOwd of people
and pick out It's master. In so doing
the animal uses its sense of smell !;
but there is another qualification to
be accounted for. Cases have fire.
quently been reported where dogs,
after being taken on long journeys by
train, have been lost amid their new
surroundings, eventually to find their
way home again. Such n cast is that
of n retriever which was taken by
train to st. Adams, but. leaving its new
home shortly after arrival, returned to
its home ut Highgate Hill.
1t took the retriever two days to
NoNti thiS ulStdlCc' uiIu tHC Jug was
well-nigh exhausted when 1t reached
Highgate Hill. How is it possible for
n dog to pick out It's way in such a
manner? one might ask. The dog has
undoubtedly more than the five senses
credited to human beings, but scien-
fists have yet to tell us what the extra
one Is.
When the dog has been taught to
speak we may perhaps have the prob
lem solved from self-experience.

smother of smoke and flame as they
smote the unwieldy Spanish hulls, on
the decks of which huddled the great
mass of sOldiery, worse than useless il
this action, where the English simply
woul not come to close quarters and
fight the matter out with bOarders. Sir
Martin FrObisher was at one time in
action with no less than four of the
enemy's vessels. Drake sank a gal
leon which took to the bottom with her
no less than 1000 men. His formation
broken. his ships shattered, the duke
of Medina Sidonia was driven past
Dunkirk. where lay the lOtilla of Far
nese hopelessly imprisoned by Justin
ius and his Dutch ~blOckaders. Before
n s%outherIy breeze the Spaniard ran for
the north, abandoning the effort to gain
command of the seas and hoping only
to round Scotland and make his way
back home.
The rest is n pitiful tale. The Eng
fish followed until August ., their guns
laundering and their hearts exulting as
now and then a tall ship plunged be-
meath the waves. Then perceiving an
apparent shift of the Spanish course
toward Norway, and being themselves
well nigh out of ammunition they
thought it best, In the words of Drake,
to "leave them to those b~Oisterous and
uncouth northern seas"
The weather that summer was al
most a succession of gales. The clumsy
Spanish ships We're hard put to it to
keep afloat. Many Of them foundered
at sea with all on board. At least 10
are known to have gone ashore on the
coast of Ireland, where the Irish either
put the survivors to the sword or sent
them with halters round their necks
to Elizabeth at London. OF all the
with such p%ageantry and pride less
than so craft succeeded in making
their way back to Spanish ports.
Philips dream of world conquest
was at an end. Not so much as a
single English p%innace had the great
armada sunk. England and the seas
about her were II remain free and
unconquered. The sea kings of Brit
ain had saved her and in truth singed
the beard of the king of Spain.

In order to have Il clear cOmprehen-
sion of the Red Cross and its work, it
Is necessary to know about its con-
struction and its methods. The pres
ident of the United States Is not mere
ly an honorary officer but an active
president Of the society. He presides
Mt the annual meetings, appoints men,
bers Of various boards and issues i'm
pOrtant public appeals in time of war
or disaster. 1t is important to under
stand that 1t Is the arm or instrument
Of the government for giving aid to
humanity. Its work goes on at all
times In the department of civilian re-
lief. Under its charter all accounts of
the American Red Cross are audited
by the war department and an annual
report submitted to congress by the
secretary Of war. To President Taft
belongs much credit for the time and
attention he gave to the affairs of the
society. In order to build 1t up to its
present efficiency and establish 1t in
the public confidence.
The central committee is the gov
erning body, under it coming three i'm
portant boards whose chairmen and
vice chairmen are members of the COM
mittee. These boards are the war, ma
tional and international relief boards.
They establish the policies in their re-
spective fields of activity and recon-
m%endations for appropriations are
made by them TO the central or exec
utive committee which has the sole
right of appropriating funds.
The chairman and vice chairman of
the wal relief board are the
generals Of the army and navy. Those
Of the international relief board are
representatives of the state DEPART
ment and the navy and those of the
national relief board are members of
the central committee particularly fa-
miliar with this part of Red Cross
work.
Under these boards are various
subcommittee. the medical bureau.
the first aid department, the nursing
service. town and country nursing and

Besides the state boards there are

A Fall Rumor.

There is no padding or wiring as
