Mahogany hams and wooden nutmegs
having had their day, the thrifty and
industrious sons of Connecticut have
turned their attention to other pursuits.
AS of old, these ingenious New Eng
landers excel in their undertakings.
Their latest achievement in the indus
trial arts has been the manufacture of a
superior German cologne. The aroma
of the indigenous article is said to be
fully equal to that emitted by the i'm.
portations from the land of the Teutons;
and the only objection urged against it
is, that its sales are forced under the
false colors of foreign labels printed by

things appear to be what they are not
as in the little affairs of the hams and
nu!megs; and second, to cater to the
American prejudice against domestic pro-

patriotic fellow citizens prefer whatever
comes from abroad to what is made at

with German cologne and French cham.

connections with it the New York Nation
says: People like Park do not make such
bargains for nothing. He did not lend
Gen. Schenck $4,000, and at the same
time agree that he should get IS per

which, in his opinion, was worth what
he gave. The equivalent was the name

the most astonishing impudenoe or ignor-

This sounds well and is commendable in
a private American citizen, but as the
