Professor D'Ancona has carefully

NERVES THAT TIRE EASILY
Sense Of Smell One That Is Quickly
FatIgued-Heat Nerves Praeti-
ealIy Never at Rest.

The most easily tired nerves In the
body are the nerves of smell. AS you
pass rose in the garden the guam
tity of perfume that gets into your
nostril must be many millions of bill
lion of times smaller than the tiniest
grain Of sand. But rub the strongest
perfume on your upper lip, and in
few seconds you fail to notice it. the
nerve of smell is so quickly fatigued.
The heat nerves and cold nerves,
which are quite distinct from the
nerves of ordinary sensation. also give
over working very quickly. A bath
that seems quite hot when you get into
1t very soon ceases to cause any par
ticular feeling of heat.
Nerves of hearing and sight can 90
through an enormous amount Of work.
For sixteen hours day they work
hard, and are still willing to do more,
The nerves of the heart are the most
untiring of all. From the first dawn
of life until the last gasp they work
without stopping for one instant.

Great Britain to Dispose Of Yes
sells by Auction.
Many Of 200 That Have outIived Use
fulness Hold High Place In
Naval History.

London.-Nearly 200 warships of
the British navy, most of which have
outlived their usefulness, are to be
sold to the highest bidder as soon as
they can be cleared of their guns, etc.
Among the vessels to be disposed of
are several which have a high place
in naval history and around which
hovers an intense sentimental interest
A somewhat similar step was taken
by the admiralty In 1904, when large
number of obsolete vessels were dis
posed Of At that time great hue and
cry was raised, as many persons feared
that the strength of the navy would be
seriously impaired. But, as matter
of fact, the sale of the ships resulted
in making the navy stronger than ever
and the coming sale is expected to
have similar effect.
The removal of obsolete vessels in
1904 had a two-fold purpose, and in
both respects was justified by the war.
1t set free the personnel needed to
start the nucleus crew system, and
placed out of commission ships which
ala not give an aueQudte return III
fighting efficiency for the cost of their
upkeep.
Widespread interest will be aroused
By the revelation of the names of ships
to be removed from service. Senti-
mental interest in his majesty's ships
of war is strong, amounting almost to
reverence, evoked by such an ancient
monument as Nelson's Victory.
Among the ships now to be dis
posed Of are many which have been
brought prominently before the public
eye. Several have flown the flags of
distinguished officers, and not a few
have made records in connection with

GAVE NAME TO NEW ENGLAND
Result Of Capt. Smiths Exploration
Of Shores Of "North Virginia" in
the Year 1914.

Capt. John Smith, famous for his
romantic career, particularly the Po-
cahontas episode. Is generally asso-
ciated with Virginia, but he was also
the first to discover the beauties of
the southwestern half of the Maine
coast and the first to draw a map of
it, an exchange recalls. In 1914 he ex-
plored the shores of what was then
known as North Virginia, but which
he called New England, name that
has stuck, as have many others given
by him.
In "a Description of New England"
printed in London in 1915, Smith
wrote II have seen at least forty sew
erall habitations on the Sea Coast and
found about % excellent good har-
bors. and more than 200 isles.

bert Hoover, director general of the
organization, asserted that inhabitants
of Riga, heartened by the arrival OF
American supplies, had turned on their
oppressors and now were hunting
down bolshevlsts and executing many
daily.
The report warned that "a large rad
lcal element is left In the population,
and failure of the authorities to pro-
vide food until the city can get on Its
feet again might lead them, with the
assistance of the bolshevlsts still in
hiding, TO attempt another uprising"
Even with the arrival of American
supplies food conditions were pictured
as distressing. Roof rabblts"-bol

almost prohlbitive prices, as they are
