Origin of Absinth.
Absinth, the green fiend that satu-
rates fashionable France, was original
~ an extremely harmless medical
remedy.
1t was a French physician who first
used it. His name was Ordinaire, and
he was living as refugee at Couvet,
In Switzerland, at the close Of the
eighteenth century. Like many other
country doctors at that time, he was
also druggist, and his favorlte RENE
dy was certain elixir OF absinth of
which he alone had the secret.
At his death he bequeated the for
mula to his housekeeper, Mile. Grand
pierre. and she sold 1t to the daughters
Of Lieutenant Henriod. They cult
waited in their little garden the herbs
necessary for concocting it, and after
they had distilled certain quantity of
the liquid they sold it on commission
to itinerant peddlers, who quickly dis.
posed Of it in the adjacent towns and
villages.
Finally. during the first decade Of the
nineteenth century, wealthy distiller
purchased the formula, and very soon
afterward he placed Oh the market the
modern absinth, which differs greatly
from the old medical remedy, since the
latter contained no alcohol and very
little absinth.

What is the best telephoned city in
the world? San Francisco seems to be
the answer. In that city, with popu-
lation of 342,7S2, there are q, 1924 tele-
phones, or sixty-two per thousand. In
Europe, Copenhagen is probably the
best telephoned city, with 1871 tele-
phones to its 312,s59 Of population,
equal to forty-nine per thousand. In
Copenhagen, too, the best conditions
for the public exist. although the rates
are relatively as high as those in Amer
lean cities. London compares very un-
favorably with these figures. At the
beginning Of this year there were A.
Ill telephones to q population of more
than 100000, or a proportion of sew
en- to every thousand people. New
York, with population of 1850 600,
had 54,647 instruments, or twenty-six
to thousand.
