But how am TO tell which il is without

Why, I've told you which one it is"
There isn't anything whatever the mat

Charley Cuspid, II you think you know

Il am If you Will let me-"
II will let you? When l am doing all

Il won't? You're disputing my word.

First you won't do anything l want and

II never asserted anything. II was you

BY this time Charley, who was not alto

their ways suddenly rose up in his might
He took the ring, forced II back on MI

"Minetta Granger, you don't need to have

But Minetta only opened II far enough
to give Charley an ardent kiss. Then she
burst into tears. Then she kissed him
some more. Then she said
You are just as sweet as you can be-
Charley, only you should have shown fight

burden Of deciding how complete the rest
cure" shall be rests with the physician
for it is he who must interpret and inspire
and measure out for each case.
If Americans do not wish to establish
a national disease they must pause In their
strenousness and bark back to the old
Greek ideal of a sane mind in sound
body. We need to cultivate equilibrium by
securing a balance between work ana play
exercise and rest, hand and brain, express
sion and inhibition, to add to our daily
prayer and petition, From the sin OF
OVERRIDING good Lord, deliver u.s." to look
well to our neutral capital and to keep a
reserve. If the account threatens to be-
come overdrawn curtail expenditures. This
curtailment may have to be begun very
early in life by parents and teachers. II
may mean curtailed ambition, and for
tunate for mankind If II does. We would
do well to remember that we are a part Of
nature and living under her laws, which
are more memorable than mans. They ad-
init OF no appeal or exception.

THE French "Qlcoolique'

THE quantity of rose petals required
to make even a small bottle of scent
Is very surprising. The flowers used
Tor this purpose bloom late in the
spring. They are first cut close to the
blossom and heaped up in baskets. They
are carried to an enormous shed, streWn on
large table, when girls. with extraor-
binary skill and quickness, tear the petals
from the stem
A warm bath of melted grease follows.
Here they lay until the petals are dry and
shr1veHed. The greasy liquid is then
strained OF through a sieve into another
vessel, and the first stage in the process is
over This goes on until each pound Of
grease contains the sweetness and aroma
OF rose petals, The smell is then almost
overpoweringly sweet and resembles a very
rich pomade. Afterward the grease is put
away into dark. ice cooled rooms.
As some factories use over 1900 pounds
or petals in a day, all this takes some
time. When out OF the freezing room the
frozen pomade Is chopped into little
squares and thrown into a vessel contain
ing alcohol. Then the mass Is put In a tub,
placed on a machine, and revolves around
at dizzy rate for four days. BY that time
all the scent has been infused into the
alcohol. Then tap is turned and all the
highly scented, greasy liquid Is drained
on, when 1t is again taken to the refrig-
Grating rooms.
AS the alcohol cools It gives up ali the
grease. which is carefully skinned on
Then comes the altering. From large NJ
ters the thick liquid passes to small ones,
until perfectly clear and beautiful, highly
scented liquid results. The scent Is now
ready to be packed into huge phlals and
sent away. After leaving the warehouse
It is poured into beautiful cut glass bot
ties.
Nearly every perfume known Is a blend.
Most flowers need drop OF musk or am
bergrls to bring out their sweet fragrance.
Heliotrope scent contains nothing OF that
beautiful flower whence II gets its
name, but 1t Is principally extracted from
the vanilla pod. Altar of roses comes
from Bulgaria, and Is so concentrated that
a single ounce Of II often contains the ex-
tract of more than a hundredweight OF
petals. Considering that many women
spend as much as 5000 per annum On
scent alone. one may justly suppose that
the scent industry is in a hourishing con
ditlon. Needless 20 say, II is from France
that the best scent comes.

BAILEY is WRITING.
Debating His Promised Statement to
stenogrspher at Austin.

Austin, Texas, Dec. Sat a late
hour tonight United States Senator
Joseph w. Bailey began debating to
a stenographer his reply to the open
letter addressed to him last week by
Attorney General Davidson. in which
the senator was asked many questions
about his relations to II. c. Pierce and
the Waters Pierce Oil company. The
prospects are that the statement will
be quite lengthy and that it will not
be ready for the press until tomorrow
night.
Senator Bailey left Washington last
Friday with the announced purpose of
reaching Austin on Monday to testify
in the Waters Pierce Oil company's
case. Subsequent to his departure
from the national capital the case was
continued, but upon learning of this
fact he nevertheless decided to come

Yesterday evening he left Gaines
vile for Austin. The Santa Fe train
was late, and the International and
Great Northern morning train came
on to Austin without waiting at Mi
lano for the Kansas City sleeper,
upon which the senator was travel
ing. Upon awakening in Milano this
morning he found he was marooned.
There was some talk of stopping the
st. Louis-Mexico special at Milano to
pick, up the sleeper. but that train
sped over the interlocking switches
and through the town. A later train
picked up the special This train was
due at Austin at $40 o'clock this af-
ternoon. It was an hour late.
During the day it was rumored that
Senator Bailey would call at the at
torney generals Office to PROFOUND
some questions, or would address a
letter to that official asking him for
certain information. There were sug-
gestions made by some of his friends,
but they were not acted upon.

be given due consideration.
