THE SENSE OF FEELING.
A 8imple and Convincing Experiment
In Touch Delusion.
The various ‘‘optical illusions"
by means of which straight lines are
caused to appear crooked and ob
jects of equal size are rendered to
all appearance decided!}- unequal
are more or less familiar to every
reader, but there are other striking
deceptions of the senses that are
not so frequently experimented
with. A French savant pointed out
several surprisingly easy wavs in
which we are misled in «ur percep
tion of heat and cold and of pres
sure.
A simple and convincing experi
ment of this kir.d rr.av be made in
the following manner i Take two si!
ver dollars and place one of ther
upon a marble table or mantel,
while the other is rubbed briskly be
tween the hands. In this manner
a slight difference of temperature
between the two pieces of metai
will be produced.
Then ask some one to incline his
head backward, closing his eyes. Lav
the warm dollar upon his forehead
for a moment, remove it and quick
ly substitute the cold one. You
will hardly be able to convince him
that they are of equal weight. TLe
cold piece always seems to be much
heavier than the other.
The explanation of this phenom
enon is that the metal which has
been rubbed between the hands has
assumed nearly the temperature ol
the body, and when it is placed
upon the forehead the sense of
touch is affected by the pressure
alone.
But the metal which has been
cooled, being at a lower temperature
than the skin, affects the sense it
a double manner, and the subject
of the experiment, not being able to
distinguish clearly between the ef
fects, instinctively ascribes the en*
tire sensation to pressure alone.
A Suggs.tlv* Siltne*.
Perhaps the greatest practical
drawback of much swearing is that
oaths, however good and round they
be, lose their effectiveness through
frequent use. On the famous occa
sion when Washington swore he waa
terrifying to hear. Tho Boston
Transcript thinks an honest curse
better than “ingrowing profanity.”
In this connection it tells of a noted
prelate who was once playing golf
with Mr. Choate and after foozling a
tee shot egregiously stood looking
at the ball for several moments.
After waiting for the bishop to sa
something Mr. Choate remark
“Bishop, that waa the profanest at
lance I ever heard.”
COTTON ANTHRACNOSE.
Recently the cotton plantara in tome
tarts of Laurens and Dodge counties,
Georgia, have been considerably
alarmed by the appearance of a rath
er Mrious trouble in their cotton field*.
Specimens of the injured plants and
bolls whioh have been sent to the
Georgia Department of Agriculture and
and to the State Entomologist, show
that the lose Is being caused by the
disease of cotton known as “anthrao
nose”
The appearance of this disease is
most characteristic and is most com
monly noticed as it affects the bolls,
although it does occur to some ex
tent upon both the leaves and stems
of the cotton plant.
The first sympton of the disease up
on the bolls is the appearance of small
red specks or dots. These rapidly
enlarge in ize with the result that the
part of the surface affected becomes
sunken and soon attains a blackened
color These diseased areas are
usually circular or oval in form, but
as several spots frequently occur upon
a single boll, these areas, sooner or
later, unite so tha thalf, or even more,
of the boll is affected. “Spores" are
soon developed upon the blackened
area. It may be well to explain hers
{hat these “fungus" diseases as they
are termed, are caused by very low
forms of plant life—in reality vege
table organisms of a very simple
form Like the higher type of flower-
lag plants with which we are all fa
miliar, there most be provided som«
means by which the plant Is prop*
gated and spread. Flowering plants
produce seeds, and while It cannot be
truthfully said that the “fungous”
plants produce seeds, yet they <K
produce spores which correspond In
(heir function to the seeds of the com
mon plants. These spores are distrib
ted by winds, insects, and in othef
ways and germinate very much as de
seeds of grain or other plants, and
again start the disease in a new
locality or upon another plant. As
stated above, the spores of the an
thracnose, formed upon the blackened
areas of the diseased bolls, are color
less, but they become so abundant
•pon these diseased areas that they
give the latter a grayish appearance
ft is by means of these spores that
the disease is spread from boll to bob
irftA from plant to plant In the cotton
fields.
The attack of the an thracnose fun
got oftentimes results in the boll’s re
maining closed, and the lint within
to mature. At other umee ths
tip of the diseased boll will open up
■lightly; but in this case also the lint
fnils to mature and the boll eventual
WONDERFUL CREATURE.
Born of a Snowdrift Crossed With a
Little Brown Hare.
Nature hits tried many means of sav
ing h-»r ova fr -m the su- w death.
Some, like the wo- dclni ck. she puts t,-
sleep tih the snows shall he over
Others she teaches to store up food
and to hide. So she deals with the
wood mouse. To still others, as the
moose, she furnishes stilts. The last
means she employs is snowshoes
This, the simplest, most scientific and ,
best. Is the equipment of the snowe j
shoe rabbit, the wabasso of Hiawatha I
a wonderful creature born of a snow
drift crossed with a little brown hare
The moose is like a wading bird of
the shore that has stilts and can wade
well for a space, but that soon reaches
the limit beyond which it is no better
off than a land bird. But the snow-
shoe is like the swimmer—it skims
over the surface where it will, not car
ing If there be one or a thousand feet
of the element below It. In this lies
Its strength.
Wabasso has another name, the vary
ing hare, because it -aries in color
with the season, and the seasons in al!
its proper country are of two colors,
brown for six months, white for six.
So all summer long, from mid-April
to mid-October, the northern bare is
a little brown rabbit.
Then comes the snowy cold. The
brown coat is quickly shed, a new
white coat appears, the snowshoe
grows fuller, and the little brown hare
has become a white hare, the snow-
shoe hare of the woods.—Everybody’s
Magazine.
SQUIRREL WAYS.
The Little Animals Are Great Actors
on a Rail Fence.
It la the furry gray squirrel that I
love to watch as he makes his way
along the fence, says a writer in For
est and Stream. He is fond of sitting
on the top rail and surveying his little
world, but if anything disturbs him it
is worth a long tramp to watch him
as he zigzags back and forth, follow
ing the riders toward his home tree.
If not suspicious, however, the gray
skips along from rail to rail, turning
back now and then to Jump down and
examine something on lower rails or
on the ground. Often it Is a nut that
he thinks he buried in a certain clump
of grass in a fence corner. Frequently
he is mistaken !a the exact place, but
he finds it farther on and comes back
to the rider to eat It Watch him close
ly when he finally sees you blocking
his way.
He looks at you <iead turned
sideways, and you wonder that he
shows no surprise and cannot make out
whether he knew you - were there all
tLe time or is only bluffing. Now he
turns back and traverses a few rails,
gets down oh the next one and makes
a pretense of searching for something
there, comes back to the rider again
and feigns perfect composure, slips
down to the ground while, as he seems
to think, you have been thrown off
your guard and then makes his way
now slowly, now like a streak, to the
shelter of the woods, Just as though
you did not sabe squirrel ways.

Carnegie Gives to College.
Roanoke. Va., July 2.—President
J. A. Miorehe&d, of Roanoke college,
Salem, Va., has announced the re
ceipt of a check for $25,000 from An

endowment fund when $25,000 had
been raised. This addition of $60,000

Chattanooga Gets $1,000,000.
Chattanooga, Tenn., July 2.
Monday morning the largest financial
deal with which the municipality of
Chattanooga has been concerned was
completed when the representatives
of the city took possession of $1,000, -
000 in bonds la-'ued. for public im
provements and placed to the credit
of the treasurer, the sum of $1,005,-

His Crop of Legs.
A man in a certain Xew England
town was noted for tiling extrava-
E uit stories. One evening while
itering in the country store the
conversation turned upon feats in
gunning. The man listened atten
tively and in silence for awhile;
then suddenly he exclaimed excited
ly: “Waal, boys, I can tell you a
queer thing that happened to me the
other day. I went to Bye Beacn
shooting when I see a nice, large
flock of yellow legs. ’Aha,’ say* I to
myself, ‘now for a shot at them.’
So I crept up near by, raised my gun
to my shoulder and fired. But I
aimed jest a bit too low and they riz
op and flew off. As I walked along
the beach I found two bushels of
their yellow legs that I had shot
