PERFUMES AGAIN IN STYLE.
For Several Years Scents Were in Dis
favor, But a Reaction Has
Now Set In.

The smart woman of to-day has her
own special perfume, and, if she is par
ticularly fadCy, she has a special man
distill it from special flower after q
special recipe. For the last five years
it has been considered in wretched taste
to wear the slightest suspicion of scent,
but the reaction has set in, and now
the toilet water, toilet powder, bufea u
drawer, note paper, hats, soaps, face
creams, and all the belongings of the
1904 girl are permeated with her special
brand. And why not? Beauty has long
ago set its approval on the practice. and
many famous woman of history had
her choice scent. The memoirs of Re-
camier, De Stael, La Pompadour, Du
Barry, and hosts of others mention par
ticularly the fragrance that surround
ed the rooms and person of the old time
beauties. To be sure, the fastidious
woman of our day does not saturate her
hair and handkerchief in odors She
will not even use liquid perfume. But
by the discriminating use of fragrant
satchet bags we'll distributed in gowns,
hats. coats and gloves delicate aroma
is waited that is extremely agreeable to
the most fastidious of noses.
Some of the best-liked. scents are Par
ma violets, white rose, and that newest
favorite which is called water lily. This
last is an oriental mixture of powders
which is very lasting, and possesses a
peculiarly foreign perfume that is very
pleasing

OUR NEIGHBOURS MOTIVES.
It Is Better to Risk Guessing Them
to Be Good Than Think
Them Evil.

A life is composed of motives as a
sentence is composed of words. Our
neighbours life is written in a language
not exactly our own. 1t is a foreign
tongue, which we too easily flatter
ourselves we understand, and which
we too presumingly profess to inter-
pref. But every conscientious trans
lator knows the danger of free guess
ing at the meanings of strange words.
From the context, says the Sunday
School Times, he may guess rightly
four times out of five, and from the
very forms of the words themselves
he may often successfully dispense
with his dictionary. But once in a
while he will be lured into a false
guess that will warp the real meaning
or absolutely invert the authors inten-
ton. So it is with our neighbours mo-
tives. It is easy to fancy ourselves
master of the language of his life 1t
is easy to put many correct interpre-
tation upon his deeds. But guessing
at the secret springs of a soul is haz-
ardous business-when the guess is
damaging. Many a life that is strug-
Cling to do better is crushed and bro
ken by false guess at its meaning.
If a motive must be attributed to a
problematic action, it is better to risk
guessing it to be good than guessing
it to be evil. ..

THE FAMILY LINEN CHEST:
It Should at All Times Be Kept Per-
fumed" with Appropriate
Sachet Powder,

A dainty housekeeper always takes
pride in the arrangement and freshness
Of her linen closet. The faint fragrance
of lavender blossoms about the bed
linen is always delight inexpensive
sachets made the length and width of
the closet drawers are sometimes used
as Innings, in preference to the ordinary
white shelving paper. These satchets
should not, of course, be strongly per-
TUNED, but Simply made of one layer of
cotton batting over which a little vio-
let or other satchet powder is scattered
A few dried lavender blossoms are es-
pecially nice. The cotton batting is
covered with cheesecloth in any soft
color the housewife may fancy. The
satchet is then tufted with embroidery
silk and tiny bow-knots of narrow rib
bon.
Sometimes fastidious housekeepers
make sachet strips of white butchers
linen, eyeleted at either end, and run
with No. ribbon. The perfumed pads
of cotton batting are slipped into these,
and may be taken out when they are
sent to the wash.
The simplest way Of arranging the
linen chest or the bedroom bureau
drawers is to line them with clean white
shelving paper, and place a small
sachet in each one. If these sachets are
made of glace or India silk in deep
colors, they do not become so easily
soiled as when made of cotton. If a
sachet is to be filled with dried rose
leaves or rose sachet powder, dull rose
colored silk should be used. Lavender
colored sachets are filled with dried law

WHEN. TOGO WAS YOUNG.
Example Of the japanese Admiral's
Alertness of Mind Given in
Boyhood Days.

A retired English naval officer, who,
when a lad, was on board the training
ship Worcester, at the same time as the
future Japanese Admiral Togo, accord
ing to the Rochester Herald, tells the
following "reminiscences:
Togo was constantly the victim of all
manner of chaff from the young British
ers on board. who called him 'One-go-
two-go-three-go.' Disliked at first,
perhaps because he was unlike his
mates, he grew in popularity on account
of his remarkably alert mind and agile
body, until at length he became a gen.
eral favOrite with officers and boys.
He stood all chaff with a certain
amount of bravado, unless it touched
on his resemblance to the Chinese. To
one fellow sailor who dubbed him a
Chinaman, he said. with emphasis:
When l am ''the" admiral, l hang you
to The yardarm.' ..
> ''One day Togo had his leave stopped
for some small offense. Liberty boys
to 60 ashore was piped, and the boys
went up to him and said: Are you to go?'
No. he replied. Immediately the young
sters got around him and pinched him,
for telling lies, shouting at the same
time: You are Togo
His praenomen being rather difficult
to pronounce, Togo was told by one of
the boys to shoot his godfather and god.
mother on his return home. We do not
shoot gods in Japan was his reply"

ENTANGLED HEART DESIGN.
How to Make a Sofa Pillow That Is
Unique in Conception and Pretty
in Appearance.

Nothing could be more novel and at
tractive than the design of entangled
hearts on this pillow. Make the cover
of blue linen and cut out a number of
white linen hearts of various sizes and
scatter over the background in a sug-
gestive way. When you have them
placed in position paste each one neatly
to the foundation. Now with silk but
ton-hole stitch around all the edges,
some with blue, some with white flo.
Over the whole design lay heavy piece
of white fish net, or outline the net in
white linen or mercerized floss. Edge
