Robert's mother noticed this habit of

to give him some games to play that
would make him sharpen bis senses

she knew that it was no fun to play a
game all. by yourself and so she In

afternoon!
After the children had assembled

made next to the corresponding num

to distinguish familiar smells when
they are presented, one after tha other,
and the children had great fun In try

The various bottles contained such
