CLEAN PARIS KITCHENS.

Go Ashes or Garbage There, Says Lecturer
Clarence Cook.
What becomes Of the ashes and gar
oage in Paris was question raised and
partially answered by Clarence Cook in
IN address delivered at the regular meet
ing Of the League For Political Educa-
tion on Little Housekeeping In Paris "
The Paris which Mr.. Cook talked
about was that of some 25 years ago,
when the differences in domestic life in
that city and this were much greater
than at present. Since then New York
has adopted the fiat system in all it's de-
tails but there were still differences,
chief among which was the handling of
garbage and ashes. In the apartments
which Mr.. Cook occupied in Paris, and
which he described as being delightful
ly situated, though "on the wrong side
of the Seine," according to the ideas of
fashionable friend of his in the Amer
lean colony, there were no ashes that he
could see. The stove consisted of an iron
top, with six circular holes in it. When
ever anything was to be cooked an iron
basket Of charcoal was put into one of
these holes, and the food placed over it.
When the charcoal was burned, what
was left fell through the basket and dis
appeared.
In the way Of food everything came
to the apartment fully prepared for
cooking. In a mutton chop there was
nothing but meat and bone, and when
the meat had been eaten the bone was
deposited ON the charcoal fire. Potatoes
were bought already peeled, carrots
without their green tops and all green
vegetables without any of the superfu-
GUS outer leaves or husks or skins which
would go to make up garbage. All of
this cleaning and peeling was done at
the markets, and the resulting material
was saved in clean condition. Even
coffee grounds, Mr.. Cook said, were
used after leaving the fiat.
No one in Paris ever bought enough
of anything to be left over, and no one
was ashamed to ask the dealer for q sin
gle mutton chop or small portion Of
any article of food. If there were any
garbage Or ashes in Paris, Mr.. Cook
said, no one ever saw either Of them,
which was certainly different from the
experience Of New York woman he
told of, who after years residence in
the city wrote to friend that life in the
metropolis meant the taking care Of an
ash barrel. New York Times.

Even on the spot where it is manufac-
tured it is extremely dear, because it
requires 100000 we'll grown roses to
yield hut lS0 grains of altar.
Its high price causes it to be often
adulterated with some essential or fixed
oil or with spermaceti. However, the
adulteration may be detected by testing
it in watch glass with a drop of sui
phuric acid. If the altar be pure il will
remain colorless, for pure altar of roses
is colorless, but if it be adulterated it
will become darkened.
In rosefields, where the roses are
grown for the purpose of making the
altar, the bushes are planted in rows
In the early morning they are laden
with beautiful roses, but ere noon comes
they are all gathered and their petals
distilled in clay stills, with twice their
weight of water.
The water that "comes over" is put
into perfectly clean vessels and is then
carefully covered with damp muslin
cloths to keep out dust and insects. 1t
is afterward exposed to the night air or
