THE SENSE OF TASTE.
Home of It I'ociillurltle.-Its 1'art In th
Hystem's Kconomy.
The tonpuo Jh not the only orpin unetll
in tho enjoyment of thin sense, anil"
ulonn it Is Hcarccly capable of appreciat
ing1 delicate flavors.
Tho dlffcrenco lxitwccu salt and
Hupiir when placed on the tongue in
hardly perceptible, provided the tongue
In not allowed to touch the roof of the
mouth and the llpfl. Indeed, the act of
getting the full enjoyment of a flavor,
commonly called munching the lips, con
Blntft In bringing the tongue into con
tact with the roof of the mouth and tho
lips. IJy thin act the Hubntance to be
tun ted la spread over the Hurface of thexo
pnrta, particularly of the tongue, and
mixed with tJio naliva.
How thlfl act produces tnwte ia not
exactly known; butovo do know that
the- tongue ia covered with two laycra
of Hkin, the lower one thick and filled
with nerves, and the upper one thin and
porous. The nerven In the lower skin
n ro the nerves of taste, and prob
ably are set into vibration by the sub
stauco tasted, very much as the ex
quisitely sensitive nervefl of the retina
are affected by light, or the nerves of tho
car by sound. At nil events, the sense
is conveyed to tho bruin, where we In
voluntarily distinguish between pleas
ant and dinngrecablc tastes.
The nerves, moreover, of tho tongue
are not all alike. In the tip of the
tonguo they are clustered together
more closely than at tho back, and
transfer to tho brain a different sensa
tion. For instance, a little powdered
alum placed on the back of the tongue
tastes sweet, whereas on the tip it tastes
acid.
The sense of taste ia an almostccrtain
guide to the wholejiomenew) of foods, and
a monitor which warns us when we aro
.in danger of swallowing any injurious!
or poisonous substances.
PoIbohs, as a rule, are extremely dis
agreeable to the taste, and It requires
an effort to overcome the naturul re
pugnance to them. Hence it is that ac
cidental poisoning so rarely occurs.
In tho case of foods we soon tire of u
thing as u regular diet, and the taste
craves a change. Here tho whole sys
tem rebels against the monotony of
diet, because no ono food Ih likely to
contain all the elements of nutrition re
quired by the body for tlvo exercise of its
functions, and soon the elements which
aro In excess cloy upon the taste, be
cause tho system is already supplied
with them, while we crave the foods
containing substunces which the sys
tem lacks. A change Is then demanded
by nature, and made manifest by tho
nense of taste. If the change cannot
bo made, nature shows her disapproval
iby causing a loss of appetite or a re
pugnance to the condemned article of
diet N. Y. Ledger.
A Unman Iloue That Never Decay.
In olden times it wus believed that
the little triuugular bone ut the lower
extremity of tho spinal column In the
human subject could not be destroyed.
The old Jewish rabbis taught tliat it
Was "Incorruptible," and, furthermore,
that it was the seat of tho soul! In
other words, they believed it to contain
tho germ from which the "new mau"
(or woman) would spring at the time
of tho resurrection. There Is an old
Jewish tradition to the effect that Em
.pcror Hadrian, doubted that the bone
was indestructible and incorruptible
and demanded that a certain person
who wan teaching that doctrine should
prove it. Lightfoot relates the result
of the test In 'the following: "When
Joshua ben nananlah prepared to pro
eut his proof to tho emperor ho took
the bone luz and put it Into water, but
the water did not affect it; he put It
in Are, but the fire consumed It not.
Next he put it in a mill, but the mill
would not. grind it. Then he laid it on
an anvil, but no hammer could bo found
large enough to crush It," This super
stition lingers to-day in tho modern
anatomical name of that bone, which is
"ob Bacrum," meaning "sacred bone."

LOOKED MEEK, BUT WASN'T
How Old Mr. Urnybcuril Pnnlsliml ho In
sulting Knfllun.
A gray-bearded man who appeared to
bo at lcatft 05 years old Ktepped into an
uptown Sixth avenue "L" train at
Eighth street the other day. Tuklng u
sent near the door, ho adjusted IiIb eyc
glnases, unfolded a in'WsjmHr and 1k.
gnn to read. The car was well Ailed, the
majority of tho pafcsongers being
women.
"Say, wot der ycr want all er der
scata?"
it was a brawny fellow next to tho
gray-bearded man who put this ques
tion, and there wasn't one In the car
who didn't hear it. Everyone looked.
Mr. 0 ray beard smiled and replied good
naturedly: "My friend, I beg your pardon. I
didn't mean to crowd you."
Then ho went on reading his paper,
drawing hlHiLrmscloscrtohlsside. His
neighbor, however, was not amiable.
He was a "tough." There wa a "scrap
py" look In his eye as he turned and
looked lib. neighbor full in tho face.
"People like you dat wants do eart'
ought ter travel in a private car," ho
sneered. Mr. Graybeard did not seem
to regard this an an allusion to himself,
for ho did not interrupt his reading.
"Mebbe yo'ro der president o' der
road."
Up jumped Mr. Graybeard, not to at
tack his tormentor but to take a Beat
on tho other side of tho car. "Now," ho
said, "I hope you've got plenty of
room."
Tho tough man made another insult
ing and threatening remark.
"Surely theso men here will not allow
that brute to strike that Inoffensive old
man," said a motherly looking woman.
The men were all deeply interested in
their newspapers or closely studying
tho signs to be seen through the car
windows, all except one athletic looking
young man, who held onto a strap not
many yards away from Mr. Graybeard
and Mr. Tough. He looked significantly
at tho woman and she returned a glance
that wus full of gratitude.
Mr. Tough leaned forward in his seat,
shot out his arm, and, pointing a hugo
index Anger at Mr. Graybeard, cried:
"Say, I'm a-gittin' out at Twenty
third street an' if yer want ter make
nnyt'ing out er dis all yer got ter do is
fit off wld me. I'll wipe de street wld
you if you git off."
When the guard slammed bock the
door and culled out thc station Mr.
Tough arose, and, snatching the paper
from Mr. Graybeard's hands, he said:
"D d If I don't tump yer now, you "
The rest of what ho said was drowned
in a chorus of feminine shrieks. The
train was at a standstill, and the ath
letic looking young man, his cheeks
ablaze, was making his, way toward
Mr. Tough, when up popped Mr. Gray
beard like a jack-in-the-box, out shot
his right fist, it hit something and up
against the end of th car went Mr.
Tough. The guard grabbed him and
yanked 1dm out on the plntform. Mr.
Graybeard was after him in an instant.
Biff! bancrl biff! biff! The blows fell
fast and furious.' Each one lauded in a
place .and in a manner that did not add
to Mr. Tough's beauty. That terrible
person was so shocked by tills sudden'
display of ungcutlcmanly conduct that
he did not even raise his hands in pro
test. Behind was the athletic looking
fellow, dancing up and down and shout
ing: "Give it to him, old man. That was d
daudy! Soak him again!"
And Mr. Graybeard never failed to fol
low the young man's advice. Filially,
two guards got between Air. Graybcurd
and Mr. Tough.
"The train is late," said one guard,
apologetically. "If you want to give
him sonic more, get off here."
"I guess he's got enough," said Mr.
Graybeard, walking back into the car.
Mr. Tough looked pained. His enor
mous hands were covered with blood ho
wiped from hiB face, and his hat wan in
tho street, ne offered no resistance as
tho guards pushed him off the car.
Mr. Graybeard sat down and resumed
tho rcadiug of his paper. The athletio
looking young man looked at him ad
miringly, and bo did the woman. H
folded hla paper at Forty-second btreet
and left the train. N. V. nerald.
Tolling- Htorles Over the Wire.
"It Beemed like a wusto of time," said
a gentleman who passed an evening
with Mr. Edison in Norwalk, 0., to hear
Mr. Edison rolling off story after story
and demanding of nil his acquaintances
to tell him more, when we knew how
mueh information we might have re
ceived from him. I Anally asked him
how ho got to be such a story teller.
'Well,' he replied, 'when I was quite a
young man I was a telegraph operator
during tho war. I wob stationed at St.
Louis, which was a sort of distribut
ing point for a largo district, and when
we would get our batch of stuff off, and
wo had several hours to put in, I used to
get pretty tired. Then wo would begin
to call up the operator at the other end
of tho lino andgosBip with him. I nl
wayB liked stories, and If Chicago hall
a good ono he would wire It to me. Then
I would send that off to Louisville and
Now York and Cincinnati, and hear
them laugh over it by wiring back "na!
ha!" over tho wire. In this way we
would get all tho best stories there were
going, and we would always write them
out for tho day men. It got to be a sort
of passion after awhile, and has stuck
to me ever since.' " Cleveland Plain

GOLD IN ALASKA.
respecting Is Done Amid Kxtromcly
DiMulvuntitgooufl Clrcunifltunccfl.
Tho mineral-producing district of
Alaska may properly bo divided into
two sections, namely, the coast country
and the interior. The coast country in
cludes thut portion of Alaska border
ing on tho North Pacific ocean, and tho
interior all that section drained by tho
Yukon river and its numerous tribu
taries. While almost every known mineral Is
found to exist in Alaska, comparative
ly little prospecting has been done for
anything but gold. From 18S8 to 1302
silver wu discovered In several local
ities In tho southeast portion of tho
coast country, but the depreciation of
that metal discouraged Investigation
into the extent of the deposits, which
in some instances were most encour
aging. The largest deposit of this ore
was found In what Is known as Sheep
Creek basin, about two miles north of
tho famous Tread well gold mine, but
on tlvo opposite side of Gastineuu chan
nel. In 1885, at Golofnin boy, an arm of
Norton hound, just north of where
tho Yukon river pours its water into
Bchring sea, rich galena deposits wcro
found, and it is undoubtedly a fact
that it was of euch easy access and so
rich in silver that it proved proAtnblo
to mino and ship the ore to Son Fran
cisco, a distance of over 2,000 miles by
water. Over $00,000 was expended by
tho coinpnny pperutlug thte mine in
1802, but mismanagement and internal
dissensions caused a sensation of work,
tho iciumptlon of which would doubt
less awaken an interest in the mineral
prospects of that portion of Alaska.
In tho coast country gold is princi
pally obtained by crushing ore, while in
tho Interior washing1 and sluicing aro
the only means employed.
It is doubtful if prospecting in any
other country in the world is fraught
with the obstacles and dlBcournRe
niftntfl that aro encountered in Alaska.
The whole of the southeast coast coun
try is covered with a dense forest of
timber, and a thick growth of moss and
underbrush la everwhere found among
the sturdy hemlock, spruce and cedar
trees; and many a miner has for this
reason been deterred from pursuing hla
investigations very far awuy from tho
banks of tho streams. Hiuper's Week
