PERFUMING THE SKIN.
Women Have Found Another Use for the
HyPOdermIc Syringe

Women Have Found Another Use for the
HypOdermIc Syringe.
From Paris comes the news that per-
fumes have been restored to favor.
The use of hypodermic injections Of
violet extract is the latest freak of the
Parisienne. This method is said to inn-
part lasting fragrance to the skin It
is already quite easy to select among
the women at receptions those who are
addicted to this habit.
The plan originated with a Paris
druggist, who communicated it to
few well-knovvn women. They eonfded
in others, who in turn told their
friends. Now, it is asserted, half the
society women in the gay city use the
needle and the delicate extract
This is all the more surprising from
the fact that, until very recently, the
use Of scents has been considered ex-
ceedingly bad form Women of re-
fined taste avoided everything in that
line except a delicate sachet powder,
which was allowed to find a place in
the handkerchief box and clothes clos
ct. Most Partisan whims find enthusi-
astic supporters here, however, and it
is very probable that with the Ameri-
can morphine hend and cologne drinker
we shall have the perfume faddist.
Extracts have increased IN value, and
exorbitant prices are asked for so
called permanent fragrance" The IA
vorite distilled doors are violet and Law
ender Horrible to relate, musk is
being waited abroad, and a new mix
ture of this penetrating scent is known
as s'Frou-Frou" sachet.
Every woman who uses perfume of
any kind has her favOrite. The one rule
is that there must be no mixing of OdOrs.
The contents of hypodermic syringes,
sachet bags, atomizers and toilet water
bottles must be one familiar perfume

For moment Rae looked at him,
then he slowly put his two little hands
behind his back and held them tight.
His grandmother noticed the action,
and, taking advantage Of the occasion,
promised to give Rae a tool chest all
his own if he would neve- suck his
thumb again. The child was very quiet
and thoughtful all day. Occasionally
he would Jerk his thumb out Of his
mouth and hold his right hand tight
with his left, as if determined not to
forget again that he was to be car

his hands under his pillow. He was
