Monaco.
A PARADISE ON EARTH WHERE EVERY KNOWN
PERFUME IL MADE
[From Lady Correspondent


tFrom Lady Correspondent
Eye hath not seen nor tongue can tell" the
beauties of this paradise on earth. Its cli-
mate is several degrees milder than that Of
Nice or even Cannes, which fact explains my
having fingered here 80 long. II were ingrati-
tude to feel the aches and pains of humanity
beneath so bright q sky, with 80 blue a sea be-
fore me, and breathing such pure air, aud the
fact is that contrary to what one meets with
in other Mediterranean towns, pale faces are
rarely seen or bad coughs heard, and by re-
peated morning walks and excursions | have
learned to know and lovo Monaco and its en-
virOns.
The aromatic atmosphere justifes its titlo-
of Perfume Laboratory" and | understand
that in by-gOne days when these rocks had
little or nOvalue, they were leased never theless
for twenty thousand francs (s.5OOOJ u year to .
clover perfumer, who sold his little vials at ono
guinea apiece. To-day this ground represents
value of ten millions S2,OOO.OOO). Hotels
and villas, with tho least ground possible sup
plant past aromatic herbs but in every fissuts
and neglected corner they raise their heads
triumphantly and throw upon the soft, warm
air perfume of indignant right.
Above and around Monaco they still reign
in undisputed profusion, and the establish
ment of Monte Carlo has a fabric devoted to
pcriertimg every known perfume. Its Eau do
Cologne alone has attained reputation which
throws that of Jean Marie Fsrina quite in tho
shade. One of its reservoirs contains =. 100
litrrs, and may safely say II Is the best Eau
de Cologne made. Not only perfumes, but
liquors of all sorts, are extracted from the
Monaco herbs.

Bright threads Of happiness to wind
Along my future years.
She said, Dark cloudsnro in thy sky,
Which hide the suns fair light
But In the book Of fate zee,

And o'cr my lips there stole a smile,
And In my heart sweet rest
To think the Angel Peace would fold
Her white wings In my breast"

Her cheering words had sent my heart
Rejoicing ON Its way.
And for long months whatever clouGs

"All will come right Mt last"
But now smile halfsadIy smile,

HEAD-DREssf,s,

HEAD-DREsSEs.
Firstly. A head-dress should set of, and
should draw the eye TO, the noblest part of the
face. 1t ought to conceal bad outlne-it
should display fine one: il should not do
form the shape Of the head IL should In color
enhance the complexion, whatever IL may be,
and throw up "the hue of the hair"
Secondly. II ought, of course, to DO q pretty
object in itself, and be made of handsome ma-
terials. 1t occupies the place Of honor in the
whole toilet, aud Is not, like the skirt, liable
to collect the dirt Of the ground, nor, like tho
bodice, apt to be hidden under q bushel IL ID
always conspicuous, and has q character TO
keep up 1t might, therefore, with propriety,
be the most expensive part Of the attire.
HArR-PowDER.
There is nothing in the world 50 becoming
as gray hair-powder, both to old and young.
IL softens tho whole face, gives q strange bril-
liancy to the eyes and complexion, and makes
the eyebrows and cyolashes appear much
darker than they really are. These consider
ations probably account for the length Of time
which II has continued in fashion.
THE BEAUTY PATCH.
There is another fashion which has gener-
ally gone hand-in-hand with hair powder, and
which came Ia vogue during tho reign Of
Charles l., aud continued up to the end Of the
last century The patch, As 1t first came
in, was ono of tn. most harmless and
effective aids to beauty ever invented. 1t was
but tiny, mole-like spot of black velvet or
silk, which was used to draw attention to some
particular feature, rs well as to enhance, by con-
tr,lst the fairness Of the check. Then, II .
girl was conscious Of a pretty dimple in her
chin, or OF long eyebrows; If her forehead
formed the best part of her face or her mouth,
she cunningly placed the little patch near II,
and consequently every timo you looked al
her your eyo WAS insensibly drawn by the
patch to tho best feature. so that you partly
forgot any less handsome detail. To an nc.
customcd eye the patch gives a singular finish
to the toilet it is like the seal and letter %
the frame to picture.

The daily gazette., 1878-11-30

THE PRESSES that espoused the gold
gamblers and the brokers policy are con-
stantly asserting that the silver dollar
will not circulate and condemn it for
this. Why do they not condemn the
gold dollar also? 1t does not circulate.
In this matter the people show their
confidence. They don't want a gold
eagle when they know they can get it,.
They are assured that they can get silver,
and, therefore, they don't care to keep it..
But suppose they knew that the govern
ment was not coming silver, and there
was much doubt about their being able
to get it, would they then part with a
silver legal tender dollar for a promissory
paper legal tender dollar? No! On the
contrary these very brokers would hide
every one away until they could sell it.
just as the silver dollars increase in the
country, silver bullion will grow higher in
price in the market. And when the
government ceases to coin gold bullion
for the rich miners for nothing, and these
rich gold miners are made to pay the
government for coming their bullion into
money, gold bullion will sell in the
market at about the same rate of value
that silver bullion sells for.
