HYGIENE OF PERFUMES.
In Olden Times Medical Properties
of Varied Power Were Ascribed
to Various Scents.

Science at present shows tendency
the ancients regarding scents. Cen
| turtles ago scents were accounted more
than Injuries. 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-
cially suitable to nervous people. But
it must be obtained from the flowers
themselves, not the chemical imita.
tons.
True flower scents are obtained by
three ways-frst, by spreading fresh
blossoms upon glass thickly smeared
with pure grease, letting them stand
in the sun, and as they wither replac-
ing .hem 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 a 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
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 high
strung temperaments. 1t 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 its compounds is singularly
depressing. Neroi is the exception.
Jasmine and neroli together in faint
essence make the scent of scents for
all who have hysterical tendencies

Married.

P. G. Rich and Mary S. Study
were united in matrimonial bonds
at the home of the groom in South
Hamlin township on Sunday, Oct.
10Th. The groom was born in
Illinois but for the last % years has
been a resident of Iowa. He is
known to be a reliable, honest, up
right man in all his dealings, and
by hard work and good manage
ment has succeeded in securing a
fine farm on which he has resided
for the last ID years and which by
careful tillage and economical
changes is furnishing him an
ample competence for the support
of his family, besides laying aside
a goodly sum for the proverbial
rainy day"
The bride was born in Missouri
and in after years moved to Illinois
where she became acquainted with
Mr.. Rich when both were Quite
young, but in after years or when
he came with his parents to Iowa
their friendly relations were sever
ed and they saw each other no more,
until recently when she came to this
county and renewed their youthful
friendship which as is usually the
case terminated in mutual admira-
ton and love and the marriage is
the sequel. The bride is lady of
pleasant manners and address,
quiet, even tempered and of very
lady-like appearance, one we are
sure will make loving and
lovable wife. and Mr.. Rich is to be
congratulated on the wisdom
shown in this choice which is made
for life.
This couple go to housekeeping
supplied with most of the comforts
of life and their friends wish them
unbounded joy and happiness in
their new relation and that it may
ever continue as they journey down
the path of life.

Extra Again Wins.

Extra met the Marine foot ball
team on the grounds in West Town
last Saturday evening and were the
easy victors in the game with a
score of IL to 0.
Our team expected the visitors to
drive across but they waited for the
train in the evening and large
number of our citizens headed by
the Extra Cornet band met the
visitors who were accompanied by
quite crowd of home folks and
escorted them to the grounds.
Some of their team went up town to
dress and as consequence the
game did not start as soon as they
had hoped and it looked for a time
as if they would not be able to play
at all, as the train would return
from Audubon and they would have
to leave. They finally lined up
however with Lee McAninch of
Extra, and Prof. Louis Pelzer of
Marine, as referees.
Marine had the first kick off and
their big Center Hupp sent it we'll
toward their goal and their whole
team made gallant rush for it. 1t
fell into the hands of the best kick
off in the Extra team however, and
L
| Charley Fulton sent it we'll back to
the other goal where John Riley
caught it and easily made it touch
down. Fulton easily put it between
the bars scoring in the first
minute.
Marne again kicked off landing
the ball almost at the goal but
Leffinwell the big right tackle of
the Extra, got it and forced it back
about fifty feet. Then came series
of line breaking and end runs by
Extra that sent the ball about to
center. Marne got the ball once
but failed to make their five yards
and lost it again. The next few
minutes sent our team well toward
their goal. Another line up and
Lefingwell got the ball and by
some good interference on the part
of our boys easily made an end run
and touch down.
Marne again kicked off and the
/ ball was again caught and punted
back by Fulton, but it fell into
: Marne's hands. Their big center
got the ball back after it had
/ passed and fairly smashed through
t the Extra line and it looked for few
: minutes as though he would make
a touch down in spite of all Extra
could do, but in a swift run and
j brilliant tackle Fulton stopped him
8 From that on until the train return
] ed four minutes before the game
e was up neither side gained much.
l 1t was good clean game
a throughout. 1t any criticism coulc
