Eau de

How many of those who use eau de
cologne from Cologne daily, one might
almost say hourly, are aware Of the
fact that it was invented by an Italian
and not by a son of the Fatherland,
which gives its name?
Almost 200 years ago an Italian
priest. Giovan Maria Farina, eked out
his modest fortune by selling perfum-
cry, little art objects and SO on at Do
modossola. In 1902, happening to be
In Cologne and making use of some of
the finest vegetable productions of the
country, he discovered the secret of
the miraculous perfume. which has
never been revealed to this day except
to his descendants. He soon devoted
himself to the sale of his invention,
which was so satisfactory that, need
ing help in its manufacture, he had his
brother and nephew join him from
Italy.
The increasing fame of the water
brought increasing difficulties Of rival
ry. New firms who stole his name, his
trademarks, stamps and S o on sprang
up like mushrooms, but they could not
steal his secret.

Next to the difficulty of comprehend
ing the wonderful senses of the deer is
that of understanding how one looks in

taken from pictures or from stuffed

almost certain to be looking for a deer,
whereas you might better be looking
for anything else. In the woods you
seldom see half of a deer and generally

London. Oct. 2s.-The report cabled

visit the st. Louis exposition in 1904

occupied a prominent place in all the

expressed in official circles at the ones

At York House, the residence of the
Prince and Princess of Wales, the cor.
respondent was informed that nothing
was officially known on the subject.
From inquiries in other quarters, how
ever, it was learned that while no off,

is incorrect. and the n%argh.le. so

CHILE is first to dip your tobacco IN
water. squeeze the water out and place
the soaked, damp mass in the pipe
bowl. Then you take a lump OF burn
ing charcoal and set it on the top of
the wet tobacco and begin to smoke.
The tobacco itself, you see is not really
alight; it's the charcoal that's alight; it
is the burning charcoal that eats the
tobacco up. This is the secret OF mar
Chile smoking. And a narshile, SMOKED
properly, is delicious-makes, in fact,

We are living in. an age Of fads, re-

follows:
There is no particular advantage to

u the voice of nature telling US that
the system needs food and, like all Of
natures warnings, should be needed.
To be sure, a great many, we might
say the majority, Of people eat too
much as well as too often. But the
entire abstinence from food is an ex-
ceptional remedy if it is used at all.
In cases where ones stomach is filed
with germs 1t is far better to fast than
to 60 on eating in the usual way, but
even then 1t is not necessary, for one
can get all the benefits of fasting and
more without discomfort by subsisting
for a time upon a fruit diet. In this
way the germs are starved out, the
fruit juice acting as a disinfectant.
Usually n or two days Of this kind
of fasting is all that is needed, and
it is not always necessary to use the
fruit entirely alone even then. Some
dry SteriliZed bread, such as zwieback
or gltanosc. may be taken with it with
out interfering with the purpose Of the
fast. 1t is really wonderful what can
be accomplished by the use of fruit in
Kidding the digestive tract of germs.

STORY OF A FAMOUS POEM
How Gray's "Elegy' Made Its First
Public Appearance.

How Gray's "EleEy" Made Its FIRST
Public Appearance.
One of the most celebrated of eight
eenth century poems, Gray's "Elegy,"
made it's first public appearance in the
shape of a hurriedly printed pamphlet,
which was sold for sixpence. This pub
LEGATION wac the result of a curious
race for priority. Gray completed the
poem some time in 1850, but had no
immediate intention of publishing it.
A copy, however. found its way into
the hands of a Mr.. Owen, the publish
er and proprietor Of the Magazine of
Magazines, a recently established peri
odical, and he wrote to the poet stat
ing his intention of printing it in his
magazine, and asking his cooperation.
The proposal was not at all agreeable
to Gray, but, seeing that publication was
inevitable. he wrote at once to Horace
Walpole explaining the circumstance
and asking him to get Dodsley to print
it Immediately, but without the au-
thor's name. Walpole handed the
poem to Dodsley on Feb. TO- 1851. and
on the Goth a copy was in Gray's hands
at Cambridge, so that it was probably
published in London on the 18th or
10Th. The Magazine of Magazines for
February, according to the then Gus
tom, was published toward the end of
the month, and may have come out on
the same day. The rival editions must
have appeared, it is pretty safe to say,
within a few hours of each other. The
action of the magazine editor was
hardly justifiable, but it laid the read
ing world under a debt of obligation
by forcing the poem into print. Sew
eral original copies of the "Elegy" in
the poets writing are in existence.
One. which was sold for 81, 100 at
Sotheby's tn 1915, was especially in
teresting from the number Of correc-
tons and erasures MADE by the au-
thor's hand. In this manuscript Gray
had substituted "Cr"mwcli' and MIL
ton for Caesar and fully" as he had
originally written. His friend Mason
is said to have suggested this altera-
ton as we'll as the title of the poem.
which Gray Vat first simply called
"Stanzas."-Golden Penny.
