* Tlio most potent of all perfumes, nvi'V '

East, but aro too powerful, especially the |
former for European tastes at the pre?eat

scent of that most elegant of royal ladies,
the Empress Josephine. Down to the
epoch of the destruction of the palace of
tit. Cloud by nre during the war of
1870, tho dieaaing room of the suit she
had been wont to occupy aud especially

highly scented with it, especially wiicu '
the sun shines unon the ruius. This ex*
traordiuary durability of the scoot producing
quality has brought about various
interesting experiments. A French '
chemist ouco exposed a small quantity of
uiusk after weighing it to the ruys of tho I

WONDERFUU NATURAL CURIOSITIES
IN ARIZONA AND NEVADA.

Whole Mountains ot Suit?Strange
Petrifaction, Subterranean Hirers
and Prehistoric Remains.
TN the State of Norada and the Territoiy
of Arizona occur the most
extensive natural stor?3 of salt in
V* tbo United States. Not only are
there salt springs, wells, lakes and ponds,
with fields of salt in the deserts, but
tlso immense deposits of rock salt. In
the early days of silver mining on the
Uomstock lode salt, for uso in the amalgamation
of the ores, was brought over
the Sierra Nevada Mountains by teams,
is it had been seen by tho emigrants to
California in crossing the plains, but the
5 w tiers of the teams could not be induced
to venturo ouc into those great wastes
and waterless tracts. In 1862 camels were
brought to the Coinstock mines for use
in the deserts, and a train of fifteen of
those animals was cmployod in packing
salt from Sand Springs. This was in a
desert of <?nnd aud alkali, about eighty
miles cast of Virgiuia City. "Wagons
being used in the transportation of salt
from this deposit, ns well as the camels,
the price of the article was soon reduced
to $60 a ton. Soon the occupation of
the "ships of the desert" was gone;
prairie schooners" crowded them to the
rocks. They wcro sold to Mexicans,
who used them in packing wood down
the mountains. Among the rocks the
poor brutes became footsore, and by ill
usage were rcducol to mere skeleton*.
They were then Bold to a compassionate
Frenchman who owned n ranch on the
Carson Kivcr. Their new owner turned
mo Minimis out to roam at win. in#
'oitter and prickly shrubs cf our deserts
being tho same as or akin to thoso of
their native deserts, tho liord soon increased
to over thirty, great and small.
They were at last sold to parties in Arizoua
to be used in packing oro from the
mountains to mills in tho valleys. Tho
Ariz ma men soon turned tho whole hord
loose to shift for themselves in tho wilderness.
At last accounts they wore
running wild on tho Giln River, whoro
they find n congenial home.
Great quantities of petrified wood are
seen in many places. In tome localities
the trunks of wholo trees, three or four
feet in diameter, lie stretched along the
ground. These oro now solid stone.
Cloudbursts, sweeping tho soil out of
ravines and cutting through mountain
:lats, havo often brought to light thick
strata ot logs and boughs, or long lines
of stumps of largo trees standing at they
grew, the roots and all parts thoroughly
petrified.
It is evident that at ono time trees
and vegetation must have been abundant
in tho Great Basin Region, as it was tho
home of animals uow only found in the
forests and jungles of tropical countries.
Under a stratum of sandstone about
twenty feet thick at tho Stnto prison
quarry, Carson City, in a layer of fine
grained stone that appears to have onco
been the soft, oozy margin of a lake, are
to be seen hundreds of tracks of various
kinds of animals aud birds. These tracks
look as fresh and distinct as those wo
frequently see of domestic animals in
the mud at and about ponds after J&sT
soft material. htttttedOti - tho
heat of, th0 aun. There are tracks of
e'eplfflhta, rhinoceros, horse, doer, lions, I
y#Jfors, wolves, hyenas, of many kinds of
birds, large and small. There arc also the
tracks of what is supposed to have been a
man ot prehistoric times. The tracks
are such as might have been mado by n
big-footed man. The tracks of all tho
larger anima's lead in one direction and
all were evidently moving toward the
same object, which object must have
been water?a lake or a spring. As tho
soft mud, all now stone, is seen to havt.
been squeeze I up or splashed aside by
the feet of some of the heavy beasts tho
tracks cannot lie far from where lay the
ancient lake or pond, and by stripping
the superincumbent strata for a short
listanco further some woudcrful discoveries
might be made.
The greatest single deposit of salt in
Nevada is that which is sometimes
:al!cd "Salt Mountain," and is u range
if hiI!8 of pure rock salt situated in the
unithu-pntprn p. lrnp.r of tlii> Stits. in T.in.
ula County. This mountain man of
ock salt is of unrivaled purity and posesses
the solidity of marble. It lies on
ho Uio Virgin, a tributary of the Coloado
Itiver, in the northern portion of
he Colorado basin. A solid wall of
wit is cxtio3od on each sido of Cavo Hill
Janjon, which is so hard that it is necissary
to blast it down. It is worked
ike an open quarry and the salt is token
>ut in large blocks, which aro so transarent
that a newspaper can be read
:'.irough them. From this mountain
fidge of salt might be quarried an
imount of that article sufficient to supply
the whole United States for ajos.
In several places in this rogiou, Lincoln
County, Nc?\, and the adjoining
coun'ry about Death Valley, Cal., ore
found traces of former occupation by
some race of civilized people, probably
the Spanish. In the Kingston range of
mountains, on the eastern face of Clarke
Mountain, near its summit, is a perpendicular
clifl of limestone 250 feet in
lioight and with a smooth surface. On
the face of this olifiF, at a height of 100
feet from its base are engraved the foUlowing

No one in the country knows how,
when or by whom the letters wore cut.
The Indians living io the vicinity havo
no tradition in regard to the inscription.
As the inscription is in Roman letters
and is preceded by a crois, it is sopposed
that the work was done by Jesuit
missionaries, who ore known to have setablished
in 1633 missions further south
iu Arizona. In order to carve the huge
letters either ascaflold 100 foet in height
must havo been erected or tho workmen
must have been lowered over the face of
he cliff, a distance of 150 feet.
Far dowa ia Southwestern Arizona,
near the Mexican border, there is a range
<-f mountains which appears to have but
>ne face of hard, smooth granite. The
top of this bunch of mountains is in the
lorm of a gigantic basin. Here the rainfall
has been gathering for ages, until
ignite an extensive lake is the result.
The overflow tumbles into another
1 /sin below, and so on through a series
of nine, the last one being near the
ground and on tho direct road from
Vuma to Sonoro. The lower tanks are
easy of acoess and are often drained bj
travelers and a&imals. The great upper
UoH can only be approached by circuit
OB and difficult climbing. To a atranger
Mauding below, the upper lake, of
aourrc, has no existence. In that plain
br-low are over 200 graves. Scores of
ha mar. beiogs, famishing for water, hare
eorpeoded their last strength in reaching

There is in Western New Mexico a
sort of lava formation runniusf through
an immense canyon, which shows plainly
that some tremendous upheaval of nauire
onco visited the country and probably
destroyed everything it encountered
tor miles round about. In the dry est
part of this most desolate spot a largo
?tream of water comes gushing out of a
4igh cliff, as if it came from the gigautio
uozzle of a great hoso, and falls a cataract
into the abyss below. Before reaching
tho bottom, however, the water is disseminated
into flno spray and spreads out

the wiuds. It is a strango nnd beautiful

past the'bed of a river was whore the
water merges, but a volcanic upheaval
has changed tho face of nature, sinking
the bed of the river many hundreds of
feet and leaving the water to pour from
its exalted porch into empty air.?Now

Facta About Grade Perfumes.
Musk, ia the raw looks a good deal
like axle grease, and smells worse. The
pop.tlar notion that the musk of com*
mere* is obtained from the muskrat Is a
mistake. Most of the supply comes from
the ma?k deer, a creature that is oare^
fully reared in India for the sake of the
secretion. This secretion is shipped in
the crude state; and is usod not only in
the manufacture of the , liquid perfums
soid as musk, but also in very small
quantities to give strength and staying
power to many perfumes made from the
essential- .oils of flowers.' Ourioualj
enough, the blossoms of two native
plants have a noticeably musky odor.
. One is tbe small, yellow blossom of a
creeping Tine known as tbe musk plant,
its odor is marked, and is counterfeited
in the comtnoroial perfume oaltcd mus t.
The other is tho blood root. Tbe pure
white blossom of that early spring plant
has a distiuct though delicate musky
odor. A bean known as tho musk bean
is a cheap substitute for animal musk.
Civet is a greasy and intensely strong
secretion of the auimal of that name. As
sold by the dealers ia essential oils, it is
yellow in color, and of about the consistency
of honey. Like musk, it is not
used at its lull strength, bat is dilutol
and dissolved in alcohol or used as aa
auxiliary to other perfumes.?Chicago

Coffee planters in Gautemala hare a
double way of making money," aaid Carl
F. Ebberle, of Philadelphia, at the Na- 1
tional. 4 'In the first place they have all
grown rich during recent years because
of the high price of the bean and the decline
of the Brasilian coffee plantations
upon the abolition of the monar chy. A
Tory great impetus was given to coffee
culture in Central America, and now
there is very little good coffeo land in
Guatemala that is not cultivated, but
there is plenty of land in Nicaragua.
**It costs about nine or ten cents per
pohnd to land coffee in the New York,
London or Amsterdam markets. When
it sells from fifteen to thirty cents the
enormous profit it plain. Too rich planters
spend their winters in Paris or Londop.
There are millions of German capital
invested in coffee, and the Germaus
{iractically control the trade. American
nterests are small. In all large cities in
Mexico and Central America are seen
big German commission houses and retail
stores.
The coffee planters are paid for their
product in gold. They pay their hands
and other expenses on their plantations
in silver. As thoir own silver inouey is
worth about sixty-four cents on the dollar
it is easy to see what it means to
them when exchange is thirty-six cents.
The life of a coffee planter is an ideal
one whou once established, for the plantations
are at an elevation usually of over
8C00 feet abovo the sca in the mountains
and the climate is delightful. The
profits from large plantations, and most
of them are good siaed, are princely and
the planters are enabled to travel where
tbey will, for pooplo will drink coffee and
as long as the trees are kept in bearing
the return is certain. It takes largo cap.
ital, however, to embark in the business,
since you must expend largo sums and
wait four years beforo there 19 a substantial
return."?Washington Star.

Patent Medicines, it

haying merit it has attained
a wide sale under the
name of Piso's Cure for
Consumption.
It la now a "Nostrum," though at first It waa
compounded after a prescription by a regular
physician, with no\dca that it would ever go
on the market aa a proprietary medicine. Bat
after compounding that prescription over a
thousand times in ono year,we nainod it ''Plso'i

it in a small way. A mediclno known all
orer the world Is the result.
