Tasting With the Nose.

The sensation of taste, while of COM
mon and constant experience, is highly
complicated in its nature. What Is
commonly called taste is not simple
sensation at ALL but rather a complex.
In addition to the actual functioning
of the apparatus properly pertaining
to the sense of taste, the tongue re-
ceives impressions of various other
sorts, all of which go to make up this
complex. AS finally recorded in the
consciousness, the taste of any SUBJ
stance has to do with it's heat or cool
ness, perhaps with mild amount of
pain, certainly with astringency or
acridity-which are in themselves fur
ther compleXes of thermic and tactile
sensations-and above all with smell.
The reader will probably agree that
ice cream and coffee are entirely diff
ferent from their true selves when
served at inappropriate temperatures;
and it is a matter of record that per-
son of the keenest taste may make the
most ludicrOus errors if asked, blind
folded and with his nose stopped to
identify substances placed in his
mouth.

George A. Moore, who is very fond
OF rabbit stew, had an exciting ex-
perience recently trying to stock. his
larder. Mr. Moore is always on the
watch for signs of rabbits near his
camp. While walking by Herbert
Moore's camp the other day, he saw
where bunny had taken up his
abode under the piazza. Just at
dusk that night Mr.. Moore donned
MS fur coat, cap and two pairs of
mittens, and with gun in hand sta
toned himself near the rabbits hid
ing-place, waiting patiently for
bunny to sally forth for his nightly
forage. 1t was extremely cold, but
Mr. Moore waited patiently, on the
alert for the least sign. After an
hours wait, no bunny appeared, and
he was so cold he could wait no
longer. Being a man of determi-
nation, he vowed he would have that
rabbit, so he went back to his camp
and got a steel trap. and with aching
fingers carefully set the trap so that
Mr.. Bunny could go neither way
without getting caught, Then he
returned to his camp for the night,
thinking of the fine stew he would
have on the morrow. Early next
morning, with the thermometer
registering 80 below zero, he hurried
to his trap to get the bunny that he
felt would surely be waiting for him.
Upon arriving at the scene, he found
that bunny had got in the trap as he
had planned, but had taken the trap
along with him, leaving his trail
plainly in the snow Eagerly Mr.
Moore followed the trail for some
distance and finally found him en-
tangled in brush pile. His watch
full waiting and well-set trap had
finally brought results. but not the
ones desired, for this was the funni-
est rabbit he ever saw. He had
quilts on his back

The bowels need attention first and
always. Rich foods, improper cooking,
irregular and quick eating, lack of ex-
ercise can all be offset providing a
mild laxative is taken regularly.
Business Man writes: '"The con-
tinual rush of office details and the
short meal hours I get, together with,
I think, restaurant foods, has simply
knocked my system all to pieces. I,
felt logy, and had no appetite until I

glect their bowels"-Boston Business

thousands upon thousands of sufferers
from constipation, which causes SO
many terrible disorders.
DR.. True's Elixir will benefit every
one: The laborer who eats heartily
and quickly; the office boy and girl
who eat "fancies" and irregularly;
elderly people who can't digest well,
and children who suffer from intestinal
parasites.

Woman Suffered in Silence
Health Poor, Beauty Fast Fading Away
Made Believe She Was Well.

A business woman writes: There
must be lots of women who feel as I
did I suffered in silence many times
on account of my pride, but now I
know that good laxative is essential
to good health. I neglected my health
trying to KEEP CHEEKY and pretending I
was all right when I wasn't. 1 had
terrible pains, was 'grouchy, and my
headaches almost killed me with pain,
and worst of all from my viewpoint, 1
had sallow, unbecoming complexion
which was not helped by face powders
Why didn't I try to cure myself rather
than pretend? After taking DR.. True's
Elixir, 1 now know that laxative was
what I needed. DR.. Trues Elixir is
mild and pleasant to take, and works
just right for me. My complexion
cleared up-bright and ruddy-blem-
ishes vanished and everyone remarked
how much better 1 looked"-Mrs E. ].
B., New Auburn, Me.
The root of many of the evils of
sickness is the bowels, a very vital
part of the human body.
A cold, fever, diseases or the like
can be remedied at once, providing the
operation of the bowels is normal
the first and most important relief can
be had by giving a Laxative, but be
sure 1t is the proper kind.
Most everybody in these days of
quick action and strife, forget their
health. The laboring people bolt down
their meals, often go to bed right after
eating, and wake up in the morning
restless, force down a breakfast and
then are distressed all day.
