THE PIONEER WANT ADS BRING RESULTS THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER T We Taste With the Nose, Really. | The sensation of taste, while of coms mon and constant experience, is highly complicated in its nature. What I8 commonly called taste is not a simple sensation at all, but rather a complex. In addition to the actual functioning of the apparatus properly pertaining to the sense of taste the tongue re- celves impressions of various other sorts, all of which go to make up this complexness. As finally recorded in the consclousness, the taste of any sub- stance hus to do with its heat or cool- ness, perhaps with a mild amount of pain, certainly with astringency or acldity—which are in themselves fur- ther complexities of thermic and tac- tile sensations—and above all with smell. The reader will probably agree that ice cream and coffee are entirely different from their true selves when served at inapproprinte temperatures; and it is a matter of record that a person of the keenest taste may make the most ludicrous errors it asked, blindfolded and with his nose stopped, to identify substances placed in the mouth.—Boston Post. Real “Watered Stock.” The phrase “watered stock” is said to be due to an inspiration of Daniel Drew, although some credit it to James Fisk who, with the late Jay _Gould, taught Wall street a few quips and quirks in finance that it had never known before. Rumors were set adrift that before Fisk came into the arena of finance he had taken a filer in the ralsing of live stock which was sold on the hoof by welght. Just before the cattle, or horses, or hogs were driven on the scales, Fisk contrived to have them gorged with water, he in the meantime, having subjected them to 12 hours’ thirst. In this way the weights shot up In a few minutes and an 800 pound steer, with five gal- lons of water aboard, welghed 840 pounds. Tt Is said some one discovered this plan and thereafter Fisk's plan was alluded to as “watered stock.” Subscribe for the Pioneer. . Drs. Larson & Larson, Optometrists.
