occupied the front seat.
The horses were just jogging along
Washington avenue, when they took
slight fright at a pile OF building ma

seconds later the animals SHE'D at an
other pile and the driver yanked on
the reins, with the result that one of
the reins broke.

that the driver jumped out. believing
that he could stop the horses. He made

Mrs. Rogers became scared and cried

stated in The News she struck on her

in directing the horses, where they
stopped. Mrs. Langdon then alighted
and lifted out her child.

PICKING BILLIONS OF FLOWERS
Work of Women Where the Perfume In
dustry Es Carried On In France.


Grasse, in the southern part OF
France, is the center of the perfume
industry. There women and girls may
be seen. with broad hats on their heads,
gathering flowers from 8 until II a. m.
and then returning with their fragrant
burdens to the houses, where they
pluck the leaves from the blossoms
and pass the rest of the day in prepar-
ing them for the work OF extracting
the essences Of essential oils, which
contain the perfume itself In March
they begin plucking violets, from which
violet water is made, and from the be-
ginning of May to the end Of June
they gather the jessamine, roses and
orange blossoms. as well as the tube
roses in July, the mignonette in Au-
gust and the cassia in September. The
nimble fingers of the women must
move rapidly to pluck the millions and
billions Of leaves that go to make up
the 100000 Kilograms of rose leaves
alone that are used each season. Be-
sides there are a million Kilograms Of
Jessamine to be plucked, and violets
and orange blossoms to the extent of
two million Kilograms a year. To give
an idea Of the number of plants that
are raised for this huge result, it is
calculated that each stalk Of jessamine
yields two Kilograms Of blossoms a
season. So there must be at least FIVE
hundred thousand stalks to yield the
million Kilograms required. But the
gathering Of the blossoms is only the
beginning Of the work, for then the
flowers must be picked apart and all
the spoiled leaves thrown aside. Then
the making Of the perfume begins. The
leaves are spread one by one upon lay
ers Of pure lard that cover plates OF
glass. Three or four times these /
nower-layers are renewed before the I
lard has absorbed all Of the perfume
that 1t can hold, for the fat has a pc I
,uliar attraction for the essential oils
1f the flowers. This perfumed lard is
he pomade Of commerce. not the pom
ade used for hair or beard, but the I
crude material out OF which this Is
manufactured. The lard I
Is then shipped as Il Is 70 other manu-
lecturers. or put into alcohol. which I
iraws on the perfume from the fat
having a stronger attraction therefor
han the lard. and the result is the En-
st eau de cologne. Most Of this
'omade is shipped as It stands to all |
parts Of Europe and America. but some
n It is reserved and the oils are ex-
racted By distiiiing processes, making
he purest extracts.

| know you will doubt my word
when | tell you that this month is
wheat harvesting in that part of
the Republic. The fields are ripe
with wheat and you see the Mexi-
cans cutting it by hand with an
old blade like a brier hook. only
saw two reapers and they were of
the first make, old and very clum-
sy, and for 100 miles was a solid
wheat field The way the most of
them thresh is like they did in
olden times, MAKE a floor of rock
and build a wall about four feet
high and round shape and then tie
from ten to twenty horses close,
together and start them to tramp
ing and when its windy day they
pass the wheat from one pile to
another and the wind blows away
the chaff There is only two
threshers in this part of the coun-
Try and they are little old tramp
wheel with one mule like they
used to be in the states and the
Mexicans cannot wait. for they
could not get around before time
to begin sowing again also saw
the Mexicans herdiug sheep in the
valleys just as the bible describes
them in old times.

bitter as well as sweet, must say
! shall always cherish those mem
ories, for | believe you all TO be
my dearest friends, outside OF my
dear old mother and father, which
you know a mothers love for
child.
You asked my intention of

here, but il one is up 70 the Mexi-
can tricks he can hold has own.
But its no place 10 work for wages,
and unless one has money they |
had better stay in their own coun-
try. There are other great draw
bscks here, the language, unless
one can speak Spanish they are in
a hard row, but l manage to make
myself understood, though its
hard language 10 learn. There
are a good many Americans in the
city, but in smaller cities very few.
