Milady’s Sense of Smell Is Keener Than Hubby's ’ Something burning is something that Is smelled While something burning may be smelled at any hour of the day, the time usually preferred is between 12:30 o’clock and midnight, though the hour may be earlier or later ac cording to when you go to bed. * \ In the smelling of burning things the olfactory organs of the female arc keener than those of the male, says the Baltimore Evening Sun. 'That is probably due to the fact that while the female, after giving the warning, remains comfortably in bed, it Is the duty of the tpale to get up. and inves tigate. It is true Jhat males of an independ ent and courageous disposition may. in response to the warning, reply “t>ish” or “tush,” that they smell noth- / log. But they ‘must expect to be coun tered by the argument that their Senses have been deadened by smok ing an awful pipe. Once the male is apprised Of some thing burning, should he elect to re main in bed he does so upon thdoin- derstanding that, thanks to his indif ference. there Is a grave possibility that within the next half hour or So Haines will have shot up from the cel lar and embraced the living room and dining room and leaped from thence tq the second floor where all members of the family will be burned to a crisp. Under the circumstances, all but the most hardy will drag themselves np, feel around for dressing gown and bed room slippers and make a tour of the bouse to report that there was nothing wrong at all. while the female turns over and goes back to sleep with a feeling of rectitude over a duty well performed. ^ moit universal accessory on the farm, the statement points out, and the ift- crease in the gasoline tax' will fall equally qs hard on the “farmer driv- ing his model ‘T’ Ford a s upon the city man driving hig Packard.” The additional tax will be an added bur den upon every kar owner in the State. , . , I “It is quite evident from the above,” the statement concluded, “that the motorists are already bearing more than their share of the support of the S ate Government, and the metor- IstV sKouId reque'st from the legiala ture that they not be burdened with additional and unnecessary taxes.” FOR APPOINTMENTS PHONE NO: 43. .
