Smoking dulls the “sour” taste sen- sitivity. This curious effect of tobacco has just been found through experiments | conducted at the psychological labora- tory of Catholic University. The pur- | | pose of the experiment was to find the | minimum amount of sourness a person could detect. First the subject washed out his mouth with distilled water. Then an extremely weak acid solution was drop- ped on his tongue and he was asked to roll it around in his ‘mouth until he was aware of some sensation different than that caused by the water. If he could detect no difference the strength of the acid concentration was increased until the faintest trace of a sour taste was reported. From the first it appeared that some of the men tested were more sensitive | making hosts of new friends MR. WARNER M.

Their sensitivity was con- The outstanding difference between the two types was the use of tobacco. Part of religious community whose rules pro- hibit smoking, so they had not touched tobacco for at least a year. Some of them never had used the weed. Several Acids Used. The experiment was conducted with dilutions of hydrochloric, sulphuric, nitric, acetic, citric and lactic acids All of these normally give a sour taste. The subjects all were university stu- dents and the tests were made under standardized conditions. No test was made when the subject reported the slightest symptom of & cold, which | hours were allowed to elapse after a meal. Care was used that the subject only two acids was tested at any one session. The acid solution was always at the room temperature. obtained with all the acids except sul- phuric. With dilutions of this, several of the subjects, including smokers, Te- ported that the first sensation was not of sourness but of a puckering of the mouth, such as would be caused by alum and some similar astringent sub- stance. The smokers reported this at as low concentrctions as did the non- smokers. But, it was determined, this = | sensation is not properly ore of taste at || all. but of touch. “Of the 35 subjects used in this in- vestigation,” reports Rev. Robert A Boelcke, who conducted the experiment, “20 were non-smokers. By this we mean that the habit of smoking had not been acquired by any one of them. Some of them had never smoked at all and none of them to any appreciable extent during the preceding seven vears. All the non-smokers were men. Not one of them had smoked at all dur- ing the year just previous to the tests.” Further Tests Plan. It is planned to continue the experi- ment to determine whether there is a difference in sensitivity to the other three primary tastes, salt, sweet and bitter, between smokers and non- smokers. Each of these tastes is caused by stimulation of a different set of “taste buds,” the nerve endings in_the tongue and sides of the cheeks. Each set, differently located, is responsible for its own specific taste.
