O. What Is the derivation OF the word

A. The Grocer's Encyclopedias says thas
the name chestnut Is derived from that OF
the town Of Kastana, in Asia Minor 1t is
also more or less preserved in several other
languages-as the French, Chataigne, and
the German, Kastanien

O. Has a scale Of odors, corresponding to
the color spectrum, ever been worked out?
w. T. l.
A. Experiments along this line have been
made but no complete scale has been estab-
lished One of the best known attempts to
arrange odors in related sequence is Hen
ning's color prism Henning used pris-
matte figure as basis for the relationship
between odors. He selected six distinct odor-
GUS qualities-fragrant, ethereal, putrid,
spicy, resinous, and burned-and located one
of these qualities at each of the six angles
of the prism. He then attempted to elias,
sify doors according to their relationship
to the six qualities. Most flowers, for in
stance, are fragrant. But there are eXcep-
tions, such a lavender and lemon verbena,
which are ethereal rather than fragrant. Be-
cause doors are complex, and because the
human sense Of smell is not highly develop
ed, the average person would not be able
to make use of odor scale to classify
odors so readily as he is able to classify
colors by the color spectrum.

the interview referred to-" that he cannot
accept the statements attributed to him "as
accurately setting forth what happened"
and that Woodrow Wilson was never party
intrgue-such is the substance of the for
mer British premer's disclaimer,
The facts are, it appears, that while he
was in London, whittier he had Keen
summoned from Paris to take part in
Parliamentary debate reparations, Mr..
Wilson and M. Cemenceau did reach an
Rhineland and related matters. But de-
clares Lloyd George ITO describe this
secret compact is ridiculous. President
Wilson, I need hardly say, acted with per-
feet loyalty, and it cannot be imputed as
blame either to him or to NJ. Clemenceau
that l was called back to England at
time when these grave questions were under
discussion"
SO bursts the sensation bubble. 1t is to
be hoped, however, that the newspaper cor
respondent whose flair for striking story
so sadly betrayed his judgment will not for
get the lesson. Truth Is not always as
strange as fiction, nor is it always preferred
more open to evil than to good report. But
truth is nevertheless obligatory upon those
to whom the world looks for news-espe-
cially where good names are involved. The
overly fanciful correspondent, dazzled by
the great Welchman's table-talk, evidently
fell into the temptation of the Pickwickian
barrister who construed "Chops and tomato
sauce" as key words of dark conspiracy.
Pity it is that he did not give Mr.. Lloyd
George opportunity to set him right before
instead of after the fctional indiscretion.
The fact u.s. there is all too much of dis
torting imagination in the state of mind
inherited from war days. AS the New York
Times sensibly observes, "The world has
been led to look for secret motive, where
the motive has been obvious enough, and
to look Tor COnsplraClVe procedure Wnefe II
is really matter of public record. 1t is
the psychology which regards pretty nearly
everything Of Importance in the world as
being put over by somebody for some sim
lister reason. Tremendous secrets and reve-
lations have been Embossed upon the world,
but have been disposed of by reference to
newspaper files or to the World Almanac"
These mares nests range all the way
from village politics to international rela-
tions. Only the other day a deluded
scribbler, somewhere in the British Isles,
was blazoning his discovery that the
World War was precipitated, not by Hohen-
zollern Germany, but by democratic Eng
land History, he solemnly averred would
have to be rewritten, while America, pre-
sumably, would hang her head in humiIia-
ton at the hoax of the ages. Let's leave
this and its like to the fevered1 propagan-
dists of Berlin. And let's pray for deliver
ance from that transmogrifying suspicious
ness which makes a mystery of every house
cat and an ogre Of every mouse.

~ 'omens says that the decisive test OF
~ President Cooedge's leadership is
In two questions Of the hour-tax revision
and the oil lease scandal. These certainly
are not all the knots that he will be called
upon to unite, or boldly to cut ere he
proves himself the general of which his
party is in need and which public sentiment
will be disposed to follow; there are sundry
other issues of great pith and moment, in
ternational as we'll as domestic. Undoubt-
eddy, however, he will be Judged in large
measure by his reaction to the oil lease
scandal and his management of the contro-
versy over tax revision. The one will test
litical acumen.
Thus far, 1t must be owned Mr.. Coolidge
has maintained a remarkably impressive
bearing toward the oil lease disclosures
which have set the country agog. 1t may
be that under his emotionless exterior
burns ardent purpose to see that investi-
to the end that, "Wheer the offense lies
there let the great AK fall" AssuredIy' this
Is to be hoped, as a matter Of justice to the
President, as well as to the country. We
can but observe, however, that in his COM
ments up to this hour he has shown hardly
less of desire to fasten part of the scandal
upon Democrats, who are not really In
volved, than to bring the guilty ones of his
own party to book. This Is quite human;
but is 1t statesmanly? Howbeit, the case
has still some sands to run, during which
Mr.. Cooidges policy may appear to better
advantage.
In the matter of tax revision he has
ehampioned the Mellon plan uncompromis-
ingly. he insists that the surtax upon huge
incomes, those running into hundreds of
the present minimum of fifty per cent to the
twenty-five per cent proposed by Secretary
Mellon. With the principle OF scaling down
the surtax. The Journal is In thorough ac-
cord-noC because we believe that billion
aires should pay less taxes than now, but
because we believe they should pay more
1t seems to have been fairly well demon
strated that lower rate Of surtax Is likely
to yield the public treasury a larger return
from great incomes which now escape ty
investment in tax-exempt securities. But
surely there is no such Incompatible virtue
or magic in Mr.. Melons proposed twenty
five per cent that It may not be changed by
one jot title. The fact is the Demo-
Gratis have given good reasons for a some
what higher rate, and have suggested other
decided improvements on the Administration
measure. What will Mr.. Coolidge do? WIN
he stand out for his preferred plan to the
extent of jeopardzing revision altogether,
thereby disappointing the rank and file who
have hoped for some relief from tax bur
dens? That would not be good politics
which is of only relative Importance.
Neither would 1t be good statesmanship-
which is fundamentally different.

Adolphus Annum, clerk, was always late
at work. Never was there such genius at
inventing excuses as Adolphus A., and he
usually managed to smooth over the boss in a
most extraordinary manner, which was at
once the admiration and envy Of his fellow
workers.
Things got to the limit however, when
one morning, Adolphus rolled In at ten min
utes past IL.
What do you mean by coming in at this
hour?" asked the boss, sternly, as he caught
sight of the late conner.
I'm sorry, sir" was the reply, but my
wife presented me with a son last night"
HIN, did she?" asked the boss. It's a
pity she didn't present you with an alarm
clock"
I've an idea she has done so, sir" was
the swift retort.

Mr.. Noah Chester informed US Sunday
that he was getting g. good road up close
to him. He and his wife did the work.
They hauled stone and filed up the gulleys,
covered them with dirt and then used the
scrape, putting the road in fine shape. Idle
men and boys should take this for an eX-
ample and go to doing something.
A countryman told us the other day that
two hundred gallons Of liquor had been
used at his house in q year, but turned over
leaf this year and didn't mean to
drink more than half this much. If every
one would cut their drinking to half, this
way the price would soon get lower and
the tonic be in reach of the country editors.
Occasionally persons misbehave at the
Pentecost church. So last Sunday night
City Marshal Anderson carried down the
city code and read some from it, saying
that it's contents would be enforced. If a
person msbehaves thereafter hearing both

pretty tough rooster, who will certainly
lose his seat in the garden Of eden unless
he changes before the time comes to be
transferred No one has to attend church
and they ought to behave themselves when
they do and not disturb others.
We frequently. have invitations to Join
parties at different places first one occa-
sion and then another. But the thieves
have gotten so bad that a country editor
with only one pair of breaches had better
stay away from the big cities. When absent

A few years ago there was much talk
about the cabbage worm, said to be as
