EAU DE COLOGNE.
Invented About 200 Years Ago by an
italian Priest.

Rome Correspondence Pail Mall Gazette
How many of those who use eau de CO.
logne, from Cologne, daily, one might al
most say hourly, are aware of the fact
that it was invented by an Italian and not
by son of the fatherland which gives II
name?
Almost 200 years ago Italian priest
Giovan Maria Farina, whose name is seen
On every authentic bottle, eked out his
modest fortune by selling perfumery, little
art objects, and so on, at Domodossola In
1lO2, happening to be in Cologne, and max
ing use of some Of the finest vegetable pro-
ductions of the country, he discovered the
secret of the miraculous perfume, which
mas never been revealed to this day except
to his descendants. He soon devoted him
self to the sale of his invention, which was
so satisfactory that, needing help in it's
manufacture. he had his brother and
nephew join him from Italy.
The increasing fame of the water brought
increasing difficulties of rivalry New
firms. who stole his name, his trade marks.
stamps and so on, sprang up like mush-
rooms but they could not steal his secret.
The difficulty Of the name they overcame
by importing peasant from Italy who de-
clared his name was Farina, and made him
head of the firm. One of the distinctive
marks of the true Farina cologne are the
words Opposite Julich PIatz" The spuri-
Gus manufactures come as near as aossible
and put near next, behind before"
Julich Platz, or Opposite" a platz with a
somewhat similar name
These maneuvers of course in the lapse
of years have had their effect, so that half
of the cologne bought In the city of it's
birth is not made according to Giovan Ma
ria's receipts. In buying your cologne al
ways look for Opposite Julich Platz."
Those are the magic words which will en-
able you to breathe your cologne as the old
priest intended, to the glory of his own
fatherland and the enrichment of his adopt
ed country.

Breeding Army Horses.

Pretoria Corr the Pail Mall Gazette.
The British authorities have decided to
have immense stud farms here. beginning
with horses and afterward extending the
breeding establishments to cattle, sheep,

for brood mares will be given in this eoun-
try to the military authorities, who will sell
them to the civil authorities. 1t is ascer-
tanned that 1900 mares are thus to be &C

time these will be imported from good
stock, but there is plenty Of blood in the
country to make a beginning.
The mares to be handed over by the mill
tary authorities are mostly acclimatized

mare breed, a hardy light little animal.

Englishman's Use of HOLIDAYS.

People may argue that there are too

he studies maps and railway guides for

he even buys new pair of brown shoes
for its greater glory. ALI these things
may appear as vanities in the eyes of the
busting American. who cannot be per-
suaded that men were intended for any
purpose In the world other than one OF
hard and grinding labor But people
have come to think that the expectation

themselves In the character and quality
of the work. That is the theory, at all
events OF course, where such festivals
are celebrated by british debauchery they
are occasions of evil, but the working

to free themselves from the charge that
they cannot keep holiday without getting

it during the year. and that 1t has main

and high efficiency
General Haywood recommends the erec-
ton at Philadelphia Of fireproof depot OF
supplies at cost of $150000, the present
leased quarters being entirely inadequate
and unsafe. Preliminary steps have been
taken to erect new barracks at Norfolk,
Va, at cost of 100000 General Hey

that Congress appropriate literally for ma

desirable.
In the Philippines, it is the policy Of
General Haywood to keep the officers and
men of his command only two years and a
half, returning them, after such service to
this country. The general hopes to reduce
the term of service of marines in the
islands to two years. that being as long as
1t is advisable to keep them in that climate
During the past year, while there have
been practically no demonstrations in the
Philippines by organized insurgents, the
marines, says General Haywood, have done
excellent work in Kidding the islands of

The Marine Barracks.


In chapter about the marine ba:ra oks in
this city Gen. Haywood says:
1.-The buildings at this post are very old
and insanitary. and do not afford sufficient
accommodation for the number of men
which it is desirable to keep at the post
The headquarters Office building, foi which
Congress appropriated $4,000 on March ),
1901 and which is now nearing completion
has been converted into quarters for the
use of the enlisted men, by direction or the
Secretary of the Navy, owing to the fact
that the present barracks has been Con-
demned by board of medical officers Of the
navy Modern fixtures, ventllators, ssea m
heat and electric lights will be Installed IN
the new building in the near future. and all
other steps will be taken to make the new
quarters comfortable and healthful for the
command. 1t is thought that the building
will be ready for occupancy IN about one
month The building can be mace highly
satisfa Glory, modern, fireproof barracks. to
accommodate about $50 men. This building
was planned with view of putting on an
extension, which will give sufficient modern
quarters for the command, SO that the old
quarters can be torn down.
1.-The decision of the department to have
the headquarters officers kept uptown Is
gratifying to me, as the location OF SUCH
offices in proximity to the Navy Department
has been found to greatly facilitate the
transaction Of business.
In conclusion General Haywood strongly
urges the enactment of the measure intro
duced at the last session of Congress pro-
yiding for an increase in the officers AMI
