In the Auvergne region Of France n
large amount Of carbonlc acid gas
comes from the soil and Is one of the
last traces OF the former volcanic ac-

the water to rise. One Of the Mont

ALTAR OF ROSES.
How This Delicious and Expensive
Perfume Is Aiade.

Is Nlnue.
The word "attnr" is from the Arab
''itr" and means perfume SO altar of
roses Is simply perfume Of roses. It Ia
brought from Turkey and the East In.
dies In small Walls and Is very costly.
Even Oh the spot where 1t is nanufao-
tured 1t is extremely denr, because 1t
requires 100000 well grown roses to
yield but 1870 grains Of altar.
Its high price causes 1t to be often
adulterated with some essential or flx-
cd oil or with spermaceti. However,
the adulterntion may be detected by
testing 1t In II watch glass with drop
of sulphuric acid. If the altar he pure
1t Will remain colorlcss, for pure altar
OF roses Is colorlcss, but If II be adul-
terated 1t will become dnrkcncd.
In rose fields, where the roses nre
grown for the purpose Of making the
altar. the bushes are planted In rows.
LII the early morning they are laden
with beautiful roses, but ere noon
comes they are I'LL gathered and their
petals distilled in clay stills, with twice
their weight Of water.
The wafer that comes over" Is mt
into perfectly clean vessels and Is then
carefully covered with damp muslin
clothes to keep out dust and insects. 1t
Is aftcrwau exposed to the night mir
or to artificial cold. BY morning n
film Is swept off with II feather nnd
very carefully transferred to smnll
vial. Night after night this process Ia
repeated until all OF the precious oil ia
separated from the water.
