Why Perfumes Are Not Over
) ? Popular in Amefica.
Writer Seek C?UW for Congratulation
In th? Fact That Heavy Artificial
Odorc Art Not Needed Here,
ae In Europe,
'Ihat IM'liSf of Miiiell is xiuliy nejj
Iec(wI is au opinion e^prestfod gyery
once in m while by those who |>t*li|et
themselves on m highly cultivated ol
factory fut ility. Juki iio* other day a
perfumer ?aoiii|>iHit?f(i mImmii the lark or
appreciation uf (ha pleasures of ?Q)e|l,
especially among Americans.
Well, for our own purl. we are glad
that Americans are lacklug In the
cultivation of this mo.si neglected of
the seuses. We are especially thankful
that the men of our race Mud coup try
almost entirely neglect the ute of
perfumes. ,
The perfumer who is inaklug the
complaint point* out the fact that,
while we cultivate the sense of sound,
touch, taste, to a certain degree, and
the aense of sight, we leave that of
smelling practically uncultivated. Well,
there la thin difference?that the man
Or womau who Indulgea her apprecia
tion of odors by wearing perfumes
necessarily inflicts these ody on all
who couie aear her. fiven the woman
who wears bright and clashing colors
does not do thla, for we can look
?way?but there It no way of avoiding
a perfume. While we breathe we have
to use our smelling facultlea.
Can't you recall how often your
pleasure at the theater and your
powers of concentration at church 01
the lecture have been well nigh de
atroyed Simply because of a nearby
perfume? No ma tier how artistic the
perfume may be, If It Is kept In
a close audience or near to you foi
long at a time it is sure to become au
uoylng, not to say really sickening.
As a matter of fact one reason why
we Americans go In so little for per
fumes is because we are of all nations
the most free from unpleasant odors.
Our cities, our houses, our theaters are
sweet to the nostrils compared to the
cities and public places of Europe. In
Italy, where no one can visit Venice
or Florence without being shocked by
the smells of the city, one fluds h high
appreciation of perfumes.
In the Orient, where the faculty of
smelling Is developed to a fine art, the
impression of the city odora is some
thing that the occidental traveler
never forgets. The characteristic odors
?f Bombay, of Calcutta, of Constanti
nople and Hong Igong, made up of a
marveloua complex of mistakes of
sanitation, 1* something that the trav
eler cannot describe, but the recollec
tion of it Is unpleasantly vivid all
For our own part we like the Anierl
can way heat. The most desirable
fragrance that we can find In our
cities, In our drawing rooms or thea
ters, Is the fragrance of fresh air, air
so fresh that It Is sweet to the nostrils.
And what can compare with the
smells of the country? The pine tree,
thte fresh-mown hay, the hillside after
a storm, the breez.es tbftt blow over
3,000 miles of ocean, the apple orchard
aflid the grape arbor? These are the
smells that the Americans appreciate
and love.?Buffalo Express.
Early Booksellers.
The first book seller's catalogue in
the English language, so far as Is
known. Is one' bearing a date of 523
years ago. It was Issued by Andrew
Hannsoll of Lothbury, England, and
contains an elaborate dedication to
Queen Elizabeth. The first baok sellers
In- 'England were migratory peddlers,
who carried their small stock on their
backs, and thus may more pfoperly
be called pioneer book agents.
In the coarse of time some of the
more prosperous hawkers of literature
set up small stalls or booths and thus
became known as "stationers," This
is the origin of tba word stationer, now
generally'applied to dealers in '/sta
tionery/' which has come to mean wait
ing materials, paper, pens. Ink and
similar articles. . Booksellers In Eng
land were for centuries treated as
near-criminals and subjected to many
restrictions, which .were not wholly
removed until 1768. ThjS booksellers
of both England and America now have
powerful association*, the former dat
ing from 1820.

Four-year-old -John tvns visiting his
untie. Now, he had npt Intended
Staying so long and had not brought
an entire change of clothing. So he
was much distressed about not being
clean.
The afternoon before his uncle was
to, take him home auntie took Mm
to the first vaudeville show he had
ever visited. And the comments ha
made were loud and amusing to the
members of the audience around him.
But nothing exactly startling was said
until a young woman in black tights
came on the stage to do some acro
batic stunt*. Then his clear little
voice called out so that most of the
people there heard him. "Oh, auntie,
she has on a dirty n0!on sutt too."

Spread of Copra Industry.
Prior to the hit* eighties, .the vast
groves of the coconut palm In the
Philippines were not utllluid In a com
mercial sense, but about that time a
Urttisli firm in Usnlla brought over
Samples pf dried copra from Singa
pore and the people ef Manila and
Cetou were shown the process of can
verting the fresh coconuts Into copfo
From that ttaite the making of copra
apraad rapidly , in the islands, hot doe
te a lack of proper organlaatton and
supervision, the product did not haeas
are up to the standard of other die
trlcts snd the Philippine goods were
not' considered as good as that pro*
duced in other districts. By 1006 the
Philippines produced 17 per cent of
the copra in the world's market, and
by 1911 the islands yielded approxi
mately one-third ef the world's sup
ply. Since that time the industry has
grown by leaps and bounds, and from
one mill in *1918-there developed In
1018 over thirty of them, with a dally
Capacity of 1,800 tons of coconut oil, or
an annual consumption of over 800,000
tons of copra, If run to full capacity.
The exports of coconut product*
from the Philippines are in the form
of oil pressed from the fresh coconuts
and shipped in barrels or tank steam
ers, or "copra" or the dried coconut
meat, from which the *1T can subse
quently be extracted.
Tears.
She was crying unrestrainedly. Not
a sound came from the pretty trem
bling Hps, but the great tears rolled
down her cheeks.
The man seemed to enjoy the sight.
A sarcastic smile plsyed about his
cruel mouth as he watched her; In*
deed, he looked as if he could never
have smiled any other kind.
The girl's beautiful eyes looked up
pleadingly to his. Hie tongue seemed
to lash her like a whip as a torrent
of words came hissing from his mouth.
Then ,she crumpled up and gave way
entirely to her grief.
"Fine, finer the man cried to her.
"Two hundred feet of that is enough.
Now we'll shoot a little of the next
scene, where you hang by one foot
from a five-story building."
Whereupon the lovely girl chucked
the onion overboard.?St. Louis Globe

Many Useful Marine Pisnts.
The useful marine plants are ststed
by a French report to be vareca, al
gae. brown algae, and Laminarla. Va
recs or Zostera supply wrappers, pa
pers and cellulose, and Iodine la
chiefly extracted from the algae. Eu
ropean countries?France, Great Brit
ain and Norway?collect about 400.000
tons of green weed annually, an
amount that could be increased from
the new discoveries continually being
made. Tl,?e 400.000 tons of weed yield
about 175 tons of Iodine, 10,000 tons
of potassium salts, 3.000 tons of crude
sea salt, and 7.000 tons of lye; but sug
gestions have been made for increas
ing the amount of Iodine and potash
extracted.
