Water pump??

I have to add coolant about every two weeks. My 300 has 140,000 miles on it and has original water pump. I can smell the coolant occasionally when I walk around the truck, but there are no visible leaks. No puddles, no steam, no dripping. There is no coolant in the oil either, so I ruled out head gasket. I always top off radiator, and fill resivior. Resivior empties in just a few days. Any ideas?
