Is it worth while to cultivate the -6ense of smell? Dr. Paul W. Goldbury thinks it is. He does not approve of the use of tie strong smelling-bottle, which is "like a solar plexus blow"; instead of lt,fbe uses a little case" of four bottles containing mildly selected odors. Occasional sniffs from these in turn const! tuto a' light form of gym nasties - for ..the olfactory .tract- which' he has found an aid in treating rhini tis and neuralgia.. - He. intimates that the-fresh odors of outdoor- life. for tu-1 bercular cases by stjfmulating respira tory and cerebral activities, may have something to dqjvith general improve-, . ment ; they! certainly encourage deep breathing. In commenting on this the-' sis, tho London Lancet suggests that the pretty competition' of Japanese tea parties, which consists in identify ing a series of odorA burnt as incense,, may have a hygienic significance. But ul uio . iud auusi, ui mt3 pleasures' ui eating are erroneously attributed ' to the sense of taste, to which in reality we owe only what we like In sweet,' sour, bitter, . &t saline substances; all. the hundreds of flavors, aromas, bouquet, we enjoy as olfactory sen sations, obtained, mostly,- by exhaling through , the nose while eating..; Now the more we practice this exhaling deliberately, the more are all the di gestive organs stimulated, and thus the cultivation of the cense of smell helps to improve the general health.
