HYGIENE OF PERFUMES.
In O1den Times Medical Properties
Of Varied Power Were Ascribed
to Various Scents.

Science at present shows tendency
to turn back to some of the beliefs Of
the ancients regarding scents. Cen
turies ago scents were accounted more
than luxuries. Pliny records IS rem
edies derived from odorous rue, Al
whose base was mint, 80 balms from
roses, % from lilies, bulb and bloom,
and II indictments strong in the vir-
tue Of violets. Thus it appears that
the violet cure for cancer is among
the very new things that surface sci
ence scorned because they were so
very old.
Now, say various experts, one must
choose and use perfumes with an eye,
or, rather, nose, to health. So it is
worth while to set down the proper.
ties attributed to various perfumes.
Pure violet essence is said to be espe-
clally suitable to nervous people. But
it must be obtained from the flowers
themselves, not the chemical imita-
tions.
True flower scents are obtained by
three ways-first, by spreading fresh
blossoms upon glass thickly smeared
with pure grease, letting them stand
in the sun, and as they wither replac-
ing chem until the grease is as fra
grant as the flowers; second, by re-
peatedly infusing fresh petals in oil,
and, third, by infusing them in ether,
which is then distilled to dry solid.
After all the scent possible has been
extracted from the grease it is still
fragrant enough to make the very
finest perfumed soap.
All the citrine scents-bergamot,
neroli, orange flower water-are re.
freshing, and in degree stimulating,
if properly prepared. To make last
ing perfume some animal base is es-
sential-musk, civet or ambergis. If
the base is too strong, it makes the
flower scent curiously irritant. Peo-
pie who feel themselves faint in a
crowded room are often the victims of
several scents simultaneously attack
ing the nerves. A single odor, no mat
ter how strong, after awhile deadens
the olfactory nerves, whereas combi-
nation keeps them active.
Lavender is peculiarly suited to hi gh-
strung temperaments. It is soothing
as we'll as refreshing, without being
unduly stimulating. Jasmine should al
ways be used pure. Alone it tones
and braces the whole system, but in
almost all it's compounds is singularly
depressing. Neroli is the exception.
Jasmine and neroi together in faint
essence make the scent of scents for
all who have hysterica1 tendencies

Corn and Bran for Calves.

Prof. Henry, of the Wisconsin sta
tion, recommends a combination of
two parts of bran and one part corn
meal for calves as a good growing ra-
tion. Bran is fine muscle-forming
feed, but corn alone is too much in
clined as fat former. Thus the ad-
visibility of the combination of the
two. 1t is expected in connection with
this that the calves are securing good
supply of milk either direca from the
cow or skinned milk. This combina-
tion is so proportioned that the calves
may be given what they will clean up
two or three times a day. If this feed
is given properly the calves should
make excellent gains all the time they
are consuming milk. The calves should
grow thrifty and vigorous.

PRINCESS OF MOROCCO.
Eastern Society IL Pleased with Visit
OF Oriental Beauty, Whose Danc-
Ing In Exquisite.

For some weeks the most exclusive
set in the Back bay, Boston, Mass,
have been entertaining and have been
entertained by a youthful princess CT
Tangier, Mile. Torquia of Morocco.
For purposes of incognito the prin-
cess prefers to be addressed as Mile
Torquia. She is not yet "a years of
age and is a perfect type of oriental
beauty. Dark of eyes and hair, 1.-THE
of form and with skin the complex
ion of sun-kissed peach.
A marvellous woman is this beauty
from the orient. She speaks English.
Spanish, italian, French, Russian,
Swedish, Egyptian, Algerian, Danish
and the dialects of the desert, such
as Skellah.
She sings a pure contralto that
suggests the land of the cypress and
myrtle, and she dances as only the
oriental can dance.
The dancing of Princess Torquia,
however, is not the hopping motion
of the limbs familiar to Europeans,
nor the salacious muscle movement
introduced by low order of oriental
entertainers.
1t is wonderfully graceful sway
ing of the limbs, arms, feet and legs,
with which the body keeps rhythm.
1t is dance that tells story with
the clearest of pantomime. 1t fea-
lures love and hate and ambition and
despair. It gives majestic history
pictures.
It tells of civil war. OF the hus-
bandman watering the ground with
blood, plowing it with swords, root
ing out weeds, plucl1ing flowers, fell
ing trees or sowing it with ,corpses
1t tells of monarch assembling
his armies, making war, taking pris-
oners, inviting his subjects to fes-
tival or citing them to judgment.
All these dances are done to orient
al music, of which the west has read
but only it's travelled ones heard.

Hints About Raising Calves.

If we did not have milk for calves un-
til they are three or four months old
we would not undertake to raise calves
in competition with the fellow who
has. There are limits to the calf-rais-
ing problem, and we state them as we
see them. If you expect to grow a calf
worth feeding with corn or other valu-
able feed, let it have the full milk until
it is ten days old, then gradually change
it over in the next ten days to separated
milk, fed warm and sweet, with some
ground OATS, or, better still, ground
faxseed, to be fed after the calf is
through drinking. For the next 80
days give it cornmea1 and oats with it's
milk, and after it is GO days old give it
skimmilk and shelled corn.-Wallace,.

CHARMED BY EDNA MAY.
Fascinating New York Actress Nnn

Edna May, the fascinating New York

Rajah kumar, the son and heir of the
maharajah of Kuch Behar, one of tho
wealthiest of the Indian princes and

Kumar has become absolutely Edna's

while every evening he sits admiring
her from the stalls.
He has loaded Edna with splendid

The other night she made decided
sensation at the Savoy hotel by ap-
pearing in very smart frock blazing
with all the Kuch Behar crown Jewels,
valued at nearly $4,000, 900, which were
presented to her by the rajah.

Cultivation of Cocoa

A traveller in South Africa, where the
cocoa tree is largely cultivated, speaks
of the great care with which the young
plants have to be protected from the
sun, which if very strong is fatal to
them. To secure this protection tho
planters shield them by banana trees
and plantain trees, the broad leaves
of which give them the needed shade.
And even when they are fully grown
they need protection, which is given by
trees known as "immortels," or, as tho
planters call them, 'sthe mother of tho
cocoa" Thus the whole cocoa plaut>-

Earmarks of a Good Farm.

But wherever he lives, north or south

characteristics, earmarks, so to speak,
by which the farm of the up to date
farmer is quickly recognized. It has a
tidy appearance, the fences arc in or

swing free. There are no weeds by the
roadside. His house and barns are
painted. The doors of his barns are

Do NOT ADVISE

Payne spent several hours with Presi-
dent Roosevelt yesterday and discussed
with him the entire political situation,
having especial reference to the con-
ditions in the western states which
the president is to visit on his ap-
preaching trip. The parties to the
conference were very reticent after
they returned from Sycamore hill, but
1t can be stated on reliable authority
that 1t was decided to make no at
tempt to revise the tariff at the COM
ing session of congress; that the pres
ident is to maintain his position as to
the trusts and further that he is to
insist in his demand for reciprocity
with Cuba. 1t is understood that he
will fully outline his policy regarding
this latter question in some of the
speeches he is to make on his west
ern trip.
It also can be stated on excellent au-
thority that the coal strike was not
discussed.
The presidents purpose, in having
this conference was to ascertain IL
there had been any marked political
changes in the different sections of the
country during the past year. The
conference yesterday, it Is said, showed
that there had been none.
"The conference was entirely har-
monious," said one OF the gentlemen
who participated in it. but who de-
clined to allow his name published.
No differences of opinions developed
and the presidents position on the diff
ferent questions discussed was in
dorsed. We talked. over the entire
political situation, especially that in
the states through which the presi-
dent is to pass. The coal strike was
not talked about"
The senatorial delegation arrived at
12 20 p. m. coming from Long Island
City in the private car of President
Baldwin, of the Long Island railroad.
The senator's refused to see a number
of newspaper men who were on the
train. On their arrival here they
were driven at once to Sycamore hill
in President Roosevelt's traps. They
left in the private car at 1910 p. m. for
Long Island City. Postmaster General
Payne came over earlier in the day
from Centre island. He left at 6:35
