and tried with various feminine arts to
win back the errant fancy of her lord

her smartest frock. Notwithstanding,
the bridegroom's repulsion was growing
to violent hatred, when accident re-

Going to a wardrobe In which his wife
kept musk, the sensitive bridegroom

it was found that Dorothea had been
using perfume in which musk pre-
dominated, and that this was also
largely used in the face powder Toilet
accessories were given up, and Carl and
Dorothea were once more the loving
couple Of old. On such small thing
does the happiness of a lifetime hang.
The reason given by DR.. Jaeger for
the peculiar dislike most men have to
musk is that only vegetable scents, such
as rose, violet, lily etc, are agreeable to
the masculine mind; while others, such
as aInDeTSTlSs ClVce, S1Stoi, niiS WI 90
animal perfumes, are particularly re-
pugnant.

it's power or penetration is such that

scale will in a year or SO fill large hall.

ton, another clerk, barely missed being
shot through the head. The injury to
Manning is on the right side just
above the kidneys, and is regarded as
dangerous. Wicker was shot in the left
arm above the elbow.
Before the maniac could fire a third
time he was overDowered by James J..
Dawson. a messenger. In required the
combined strength of half a dozen men
to finally subdue the man. Prominent
among them was Lieutenant General

him and also the papers in his pocket.
Majors Kean and Ireland of the sur
geon generals staff were hastily sent
Cor. and gave first aid to the injured
men before they were taken to the
Emergency hospital.
O'Brien, or Duffy, came to the war
department early in the day and hung
around the building for over an hour.
He then went upstairs and was escort
ed to the mail and record division by
Charles Gennon, one of the clerks. The
man was introduced to Charles Brandt
the chief of the division, and expressed
dissatisfaction with his discharge pa
pers. Then, without a word OF warm
ing, he drew the pistol from his pocket
and aimed it directly at Mr.. Brandt's
head. Brandt ducked and the bullet
entered the arm of Mr.. Wicker
O'Brien then turned the weapon or
Miss Saxton and fired. She, too, dodg-

was heard. Women rushed from the
rooms screaming, and were JOINED

This was diplomatic day, and half {

PERFUME AFFECTS MARRIAGE

Theory Of Famous German Doctor
Scents to Avoid.
At a time when SO many women,
young and attractive, are left lonely,
and deploring the fact that the men Of
the day are mot matrimonially inclined
it may not be aniss to mention one of
the causes for this celibacy as assumed
by d learned professor from that coun-
try whence come so much light and
learning.
Professor Jaeger, that famous German
hygienic prophet, informs us that as
long ago as the eighteenth century it
was discovered that the scent Of musk
had been known to have dire effects, be-
ing particularly disliked by men and
that coming from one beloved, it had
even been proved to change affection in
to aversion.
He quotes case in which two pas
sionate lovers had actually been eter-
nally separated as a consequence of a
little musk on the lady's Handkerchief.
1t is a matter of regret that this sub
ject should not have come before the
public before, for the heart saddens

maidens doomed in past ages to
perpetual spinsterhood, all for the want
of a little guidance in the choice Of what
was once known as toilet water"
DR.. Jaeger cites another case also
which may throw a new and astonish-
ing light on the persistent demands OF
the day for judicial separation between
husband and wives and the increasing
growth OF divorce cases.

A. J. Patterson, proprietor Of the
Hotel Patterson, tonight expressed the
belief that the Darlington building
stood on a bed of quicksand and his
statement was communicated to the
district attorneys office. Mr.. Patterson
said that when the ground for his hotel
was being excavated the men came up
on two beds of quicksand, whcih neces-

HEALTH FADs ON THE BRAIN.
Are They Not Becoming a Mania With
Some People?

SOInG EeUple
To get all sorts of health fads on the
brain is disease in itself. It is a very
prevalent disease too. With a few fool
ish rules to observe, a whole lot of by
geinic quirks to adjust to and schedule
of superstitious sanitary notions dill
gently followed by day and dreamed of
by night is a malady which begins as a
mental arrangement and ends in a COM
plete physical fizzle.
No room left for a spontaneous life, no
place for free joyous liberty. Not a
minutes space for rollicking disregard.
Everything fixed, every minute disposed
of introspections without number. Fore
bodings, misgivings, lowering vaguely
about the mind, like flocks Of carrior
crows.
Such a life is not worth living. One
might a thousand times better go back
