DISTILLING PERFUMES.
The Processes BY Which the Most Delicate
Odors Are Obtained.


Odors Are Obtained.
Those dainty, delicate perfumes which
the superfine and the vulgar alike enjoy
are obtained in very prosaic way.
They are produced in land where the
flowers are perennial, but the process of
manufacture include not only distilla-
ton and fermentation, but even boiling
in fat. Consul Harris, writing from
Nice, where the manufacture is carried
on extensively, describes the processes.
In distillation the flowers are boiled in
an. Theoretically sealed copper vessel.
The steam as it condenses in it's passage
through spiral coil exudes the volatile
essence drop by drop and it is collected
in a small glass vessel. The water in
the copper retains small portion Of the
scent and becomes the rose water or
orange-fower water of trade. All flow
ers are not susceptible of this treatment
and those that are produce but a minute
quantity, the orange flower, FOR instance,
giving but one gramme OF essence for
one kilo Of flowers, or but one-thou-
sandth part.
The volatile essences thus obtained,
combined and mixed together with a
certain quantity of alcohol, are used in
the preparation and as the basis of eau
lie cologne, toilet vinegar, lavender
water, etc.
The perfume from flowers which do
not contain the volatile essence is ex-
tracted by two processes. In the first
or cold process, cassie, jessamine, jon
quils, tuberoses, violets and some other
flowers, freshly gathered, are placed
upon layer of pure lard a quarter of an
inch in thickness spread over glass
trays. The flowers are changed every
twelve, eighteen, or twenty-four hours,
according to circumstances, until the
lard is sufficiently charged with per-
fume Jessamine and tuberose are
changed as often as fifty times, and the
other flowers from twenty to thirty
times. When the hot process is resorted
to grease is placed in copper vessel,
together with the flowers, and the COM
pound is boiled. Additional flowers are
added from time to time until the fat
has absorbed the requisite amount Of
perfume. By another process the per-
fumes are extracted from the fats and,
by blending these with the different
essences the numerous scents are OBJ
tanned. Certain perfumes which are of
great use in the manufacture of scents
can only be obtained by the fermenta-
ton of fruits, flowers and rOots.-PalJ

WILSON'S BAL BREAK.

Seattle Telegraph: Washlngton's rep
resentative in congress has been
noted for dignity Of demeanor or respect
fol speech. His temper is bad, his man
ners deplorahle, his methods fussy and
trivial. Nominated for congress as a
mere concession to the demands Of 4 sec
ton for representation on the ticket, his
election was accomplished solely because
Of a strong majority in favor Of his party
at the time. Any other little fellow oil
small brain and great assurance could
have been elected quite as easily. His
success was q travesty on "the eternal
fitness Of things"
His conduct at the national capital has
been such as to discredit him. He has
been offensive and impudent to 4 number
Of the old members Of the house, thereby
leasening the influence he might have
o aimed by modesty and tact. Heopenly
gu deIed some weeks ago with one Of the
senators, unnecessarily and foolishly.
BY some means be has managed to in
Rratiate himself with the press agents, 30
that bis name Is kept prominent in the
reports sent out here, and he Is thus given
q fictitious importance in the eyes Of
people who do not reflect.
He Is accused by n Of the Spokane
papers Of having entered into 4 com
bination to defeat the denomination Of one
Of our senators, and is supposed to be an
aspirant for the seat occupied by the
other; 90 that his boundless assurance
leads him to aspire to be the boss Of bis
party in the state. He has 50 persist
entity broken his pledges to his neighbour
in Spokane, and 80 insOlently treated
them, that bitter opposition TO his re-
nomination has grown up at his own
home and he is held in contempt by
many Of his fellow citizens.
Finally, he has disgraced himself and
the state he misrepresents by becoming q
braWler on the aoor Of the house Of repre-,
sentatves during the regular course oil
proceedings Of that body.
It Is unfortunate that Washington sent
a. her Hrst representative in congress q

THOMAS CARROLL.

The democrats have done well. They
have made a nomination Of which they
have cause to feel proud. They have
selected Thomas Carroll, Of Tacoma, OF
whom democrats and republicans alike
speak kindly. He was born under the
shadowof old Independence hall in Phila-
delphia, from which may be traced the
patriotic ieryor which characterizes his
every act, and which led him while yet a
boy TO enlist in the famous Old Eagle
regiment Of Wisconsin, doing a soldiers
duty until the leaden ball ~incapacitated
him for the activity Of the front, and his
services were continued as muster officer.
He has been q worker all his life. He
was a poor boy and his education was
gained under difficulties. The world
owed HIM no easy living and he has paid
for his competence with honest toll. His
struggles have taught him sympathy for
the laboring men, and with them he will
stand well.
Mr.. Carroll came to this state in 1883
and located at Tacoma, where he prac-
tlced law and honOrably served the peo-
pie as city attorney. Although a man Of
strong convictions, he has always been
Just in his dealings with the world, and,
as a result, he has gained the esteem and
good will Of all with whom be has come
in contact. He will enter the contest
hampered by no antagOnisms, and with a
clean record as an o~fice-holder and a

While the Stanley expedition was cross

several fine specimens Of this peculiar

The production Of laughter by artificial
means, 1t Is thought, can be reduced TO q
science now that the discovery Of q plant,
