City Comptroller McCardy submitted
to the assembly last night the resolu-
ton fixing the city tax levy for the
year 1896. It will be noted, in COM
pairing it with last years city levy, that
the rates are higher throughout the
city. This is necessitated by reason Of
the large reduction in the city's as
sessed valuation.
The assembly was at first disposed
to refer the resolution fixing the levy
to a special committee, but finally
adopted it. It is as follows:
Resolved. by the common council OF the
city of st. Paul. that the tax levy upon each
dollar of the assessed valuation of the real
and personal estate within the limits OF the
city of st. Paul, Minnesota, for the year 1885,

HEgIenie Value Of Perfumes.

DR., Andres of Philadelphia few
years ago made the discovery that the
ozone in the atmosphere, which is the
great purifier, was mainly supplied
from blooming flowers, and for this
reason blooming plants we're healthful
in dwelling houses, as well as attract
tive. Some interesting experiments
with the odors of flowers have been
made in the old world, and it is found
that many species of microbes are
easily destroyed by various odors.
The odor of cloves has been known to
destroy these minute creatures in
thirty-fve minutes cinnamon will kill
some species in twelve minutes; thyme
in thirty-fve. In forty-five minutes
common wild verbena is found effect
i've, while the odor of some geranium
flowers has destroyed various forms of
microbes in fifty minutes. The es-
sence of cinnamon is said to destroy
the typhoid-fever microbe in twelve
minutes, and is recorded as the most
effective Of all odors as an antiseptic.
1t is now believed that flowers which
are found in Egyptian mummies were
placed there more for their antiseptic
properties than as mere ornaments or
elements in sentimental work. Hos
