The Cense of Smell.
"It is the upper part of the nose that
smells. " said a perfumer. "The lining
there is very sensitive and brown in
color , not red. as in the lovrer nose.
Men are more sensitive to odors than
women. Scientific tests have shown , I
believe , that , -while many men can de
tect the smell of prussic acid even
when there is only one part of the
acid to two million parts of water ,
the average woman fails to detect the
smell if there are less than ten parts of
the acid. Though the white man is
much less sensitive to odors than the
savage , a prolonged stay in a part of
the world where smells are few puts u
very fine edge1 on the sense of smell.
Dr. Kansen has declared thnt when
returning from the ice world to Frans
Josef Land he knew when he was approaching
preaching the assistant he had left
there by smelling his scented soup long
before he saw him. He could , lee ,
when approaching the hut have given
an inventory of the stores there , as he
smelled everything it contained sepa
rately and distinctly. "
Ruled His Servants by Fines.
Sir Richard Xewdigate , a seventeenth
century Warwickshire squire , whose
papers were published some years ago
by one of his descendants , ruled his
servants by a system of fines. The
value at which he rated domestic
crimes is shown by such entries in his
diary as : "Xau Newton , " jr breaking
a teapot. 2s. Gd. ; Richard Knight , for
pride and slighting , 2s. Gd. ; William
Hetherington , for not being ready to
go to church three Sundays , IS pence ;
Thomas Cirdall , for being at Xuneaton
from morning till night. 5 shillings ;
cook , dead drunk. 10 shillings. " As
his cook's wages were only S a year
she paid pretty dearly for her lapse
from sobriety. Sir Richard had a sys
tem of rewards as well as penalties.
"To my three daughters. " he writes ,
"because they came to prayers. 3 shil
lings. " and "to Tom Cooper , who work
ed hard after he broke his head , 2s.

Origin cf Foxe'o "Dook of Martyrs. "
Foxe's "Book of Martyrs" was pub
lished in March. 1(532. ( as tbe "Actes
and Monuments" of the martyrs , a
title borrowed from an earlier book ,
says the London Chronicle. The fa
mous volume might never have ap
peared at all but for the association of
.Foxe with the printer Day of Alders-
gate street , in whose business Foxe
took an active part. Oa the tomb
stone of Day in the church of Little
Bradley , Suffolk , the partnership is
thus immortalized :
He et a Fox to wright how martyrs runno
By death to lyfe ; Fox ventured paynea
and health
To give them light ; Daye spent In print
his wealth.
Even in those days the alien prob
lem troubled industry , for we find
Foxe appealing to Cecil to relax the
law and permit his friend Day to en
gage more than four foreign printers.
Iron In Plants.
Iron is the substance which gives
the green appearance to foliage. It
forms a constituent part of chloro
phyll and is the green coloring matter
which stains the bodies inside the cells
of leaves , called plastids. When the
first organized food is being formed
in the leaves from water and carbonic
acid gas a certain amount of energy
is required. This is obtained from the
sun's rays , but the work of absorb
ing it is carried out by the chlorophyll.
It requires very little iron for the pro
duction of all tbe cholrophyll found
in n crop , and nearly all soils contain
an abundant supply.
The Human Clock.
The Spanish painter Ribera. Mr. ET.il-
dane Macfall recalls in his "History
of Painting , " worked with such fervor
that nil count of time was lost to him.
"He made a living clock to check the
passing hours. His servant came ev
ery hour to the studio to say in a loud
and stately voice , 'Another hour has
gone , Signer Cavaliere ! ' "
Ho Won.
"Before you kiss me. Horace , let me
tell you that Fred has given Kitty a
diamond ring. You have never given
me one. "
"Dearest , it is only girls who are not
precious in themselves who require the
aid of precious stones. ' *
"Oh , you may kjss me twice , Her
ace. "
Pen and Sword.
"Do you believe the pen is mightier
than the sword ? "
"Of course it is. "Who ever had to
.pay $23.CCO damages in a breach of
promise case on account of the sword
he carried ? " Chicago Record-Herald.
A Rule of Life.
We should moot each morning as
from foreign countries and. spending
the day together , should depart at
night as into foreign countries. In all

One VVss Enough.
. Milton was one day asked by a
friend whether he would instruct his
daughters in the different languages.
, "No. sir. " he said : "one tongue is
k
jufficieut for any woman. "
She Knew.
"But do you think 1 could deceive
my own little wife ? "
"No. I know you could not , but 1 be- /
