ANCIENT PERFUMES.
They Were Almost at Times = Part
of the Life of the People.

They Were Almost at Times . Part
of the Life of the People.
Perfumes have played an important
part in the Identification Of the peO-
pie of all nations and ages. Egypt
was the great mart for all perfumes.
Even the dead were not forgotten, for
the embalmed mummy was saturated
with spices and scents. and sweet per-
fumes were burned before their stat
ues. Those who could not afford this
had scent bottles painted on their
tOmbS.
Most of the perfumes were thought
by the ancients to have a medicinal
value. Thyme was thought to have a
tonic quality and lavender a soothing
one. Patchouli was cheering, jasmine
stimulating. while heliotrope was irri-
tating unless used in small quantities.
Some people today believe that sandal
is tonic, and it's virtue was known to
the Greeks, who anointed themselves
with it when they. entered the Olym-
plan games.
The Jews excelled all in their love Of
perfumes, for night and morning they
burnt sweet incense of myrrh, and
their beds were perfumed with aloes
and cinnamon. So indispensable were
scents considered for the bridal toilet
that one-twelfth of the dowry was set
apart for the purpose. The trade in
perfumes was enormous in Greece.
Like the Egyptians, they understood
the destinations Of flowers, and an
Athenian not only perfumed his house,
but scented his drinking vessels with
in Arabia. To such an extent was the
love Of perfumes carried that each
part Of the body had its special per-
fume. The hair required wild thyme,
the neck and knees sweet marjoram,
the cheek and the breast palm oil, the
feet and legs sweet ointment.
The perfumers' shops in ancient
Athens were the rendezvouses for the
beaus to discuss politics and intrigue
The love of perfumery spread to the
Romans, and the business became so
great that bunch of sage denoted
their shops. A Roman lady frequently
kept one slave to sprinkle her hair
Nero had rare device of ivory leaves
which shed sweet scents over his
guests.
In the time of Elizabeth perfumes
were very rich and numerous. Civet,
scent taken from the civet cat, and
musk are often mentioned in the liter
D]y
We're in vogue then, and the queen had
her portrait scented with them. Even
her shoes were made of leather STEPPED
IN scented oils, which permeated the
skin.

that the stalwarts may break through.
The stumbling block is the candloacy
for governor of Speaker Lenroot a La
Toilette lieutenant of great force ana
ability in legislation, but whose canoi-
dacv does not seem to take. Inc
other candidate is Governor Davidson
who. upon La Follette's assumption OF
the toga. announced his candidacy.
Davidson's aspirations take first rate
and being in he has the advantage OF
all outside opponents.
The situation is that Lenroot ana
Davidson may so divide the halfbreeo
strength as to let the stalwart candl-
date slim in at the primaries. On the
other hand if Lenroot withdraws Da-
wilson will be strong enough to be in
dependent of La Toilette, who already
distrusts his successor. Governor Ia
Wilson's platform, however, is 1dentlcai
with that of La Toilette. The Wnole
fight appears to be to secure the sue
cession to the governorship to a man
who will acknowledge the chieftaincy
of the Junior senator. This comes
very near projecting La Toilette ma
chine on the Objectionable grounds
which La Toilette denounced In the
stalWartS.

WILL Mr.. ARMOUR REPLY?

Mr. j. Ogden Armour. head of the
Armour Packing company, and looked
upon as the head and front of the beef

day Evening Post a series of articles
defending the beef packers. He very
earnestly denied that there is beef
trust and was especially emphatic in
his denials of a private car trust and
also that there is unspeakable filth in
the preparation of packing house prod

Sinclair by name, it was quite evident
that Mr.. Armour had Mr. Sinclair's

Charles v. and the C0bbler.

A pleasant story is told of the Emper-
or Charles V. One night he strolled in
to cobbler's shop to get his boot mend
ed. 1t happened to be the festival of
st. Crispin. The cobbler was making
merry with his friends and declared
that no work could be done on that day
for any man, even though he were
Charles himself, but the stranger was
cordially invited to join in the merry
making. He did as he was hidden.
Here's to the health of Charles w."
said the cobb1er. do you love him"
asked the emperor. Love himY said
the cobbler. II do. 1 love his long
noseship well enough, but should love
him more If he taxed us less" They
finished st. Crispin's day very pleas
antly.
Upon the morrow the emperor sent
for the cobbler to the palace and great
ly surprised him by thanking him for
his hospitality of the previous evening,
asking him what reward he would like
best The amazed cobbler asked for q
night to think of it. The next day he
appeared before the emperor and re-
quested that the cobblers of Flanders
might bear for their coat of arms a
boot with crown upon it.

ment inspectors are subject only to the

which the packing house is located.
The Chicago inspector who tried to in
ject kerosene into the condemned car
casses in order that the meat couIo
not be palmed off on the public, sud-
denly found himself out of job
Mr.. Armour also offers as a defense
the claim that if such things as Mr..
Sinclair relates actually happen, the
packers would be subjected to unlim-
tied blackmail. Mr. Sinclair retorts by
offering sample case wherein Mr.
Armour did pay man $4,000 not to
make an affidavit contradicting a for
mer affidavit, setting forth some disgust
ing details of the meat packing bust
ness as conducted in the Armour plants,
and follows it up with the charge that
Mr. Armour is constantly paying black
mail in order to prevent exposure.
Then, to clinch the matter, Mr.. Sinclair
offers in evidence the court records
wherein the Armour Packing company
has entered a plea of guilty and paid
fines for adulteration of meat prod
ucts. At Shenandoah, Pa. on June 16,
1905, the Armour Packing company
pleaded guilty to adulterating "block-
weirst' and paid fine of $50. 1t paid
a fine of $50 at Greenburg, Pa, for
selling 'preserved' minced ham. And
in addition to the court records, Mr.

BRITAIN FOR DISARMAMENT.

The liberal government which came
into power pledged to a number of So
cial experiments in government has
found itself handicapped in the attempt
TO satisfy the little England element
which elected it by the tremendous ex-
penses for the defense of the empire. So
long as Great Britain maintains the ma
val policy of having as many effective
units as the next two powers there will
be little loose cash for old age pen
sions, payment Of legislators, state
schools, free breakfasts and numerous
other projects which appeal to the la
Dor and nom conformist elements which
are the backbone of present day lib
eralism.
1t is therefore not strange that so
renowned statesman as Sir Edward
Gray, whose presence at the foreign
office was hailed as a guarantee that
the empire would not be sacrificed, is
compelled to welcome a motion inviting
the attention of the powers to the ques-
ton of disarmament Sir Edward Gray
declared that the matter ought to be
discussed at the next Hague conven-
ton and that the motion of Mr.. Wv
ian, a labor member ought to be con-
sidered an invitation from Great Brit
ian to take up the question.
Of course disarmament is mere
dream so long as Great Britain main
tains her policy of supremacy. France
and Germany by acceding to it would
be merely confirming Great Britain's
title to the mastery of the seas at less
cost to the British taxpayer. By push
ing the margin of difference they con-
stantly compel Great Britain to build
at a higher rate of speed than they
have set for. themselves with the
chance always that a smaller navy may
beat a larger one as happened in the
late war between Russia and Japan.
Mr.. Bellaire, a liberal member, IN
moving an amendment to the motion
declared that the only hope of stopping
the mad race was in an Anglo-Ameri-
can alliance. These two powers, he
;said, could guarantee each OTHER
against attack by any two powers.
Undoubtedly such a program would be
very nice for Great Britain, but it
leaves out of account the fact that
America is not in the alliance business.
Our policy toward Europe is to trade
with all nations and treat all alike.
Our navy is for defense. 1t menaces
no European power and while we have
surplus steel to sell we are not vitality
interested in stopping navy building
abroad.
