Some Sweet Odors

dating from the time of the Emperor Nero.
In maceration, the primary substance is
softened by pounding, and then dissolved py
steepinp in a LIQUID, usually alcoholic. In en-
Aourage the odors are extracted by immers-
ing the flowers or plants in grease Inc lat
absorbs the odors, and to remove 1T the tat
is placed in alcohol; the odor then leaves the
fat and enters into the spirit, which thus
becomes scented.
In the manufacture OF perfumes art mas
improved on nature, and the perfumer must
he good chemist. Such odors as Jockey
Club. West End, Mousselaine, Milefieur and
a host of others have no counterpart in gar
den or grove.
The delicate heliotrope, for instance, is
scarce and Improbable to the perfumer. He
detects in it's odor, however. the aroma of
camilla combined with the sharper scent OF
bitter almonds. -
Therefore. he adds to tincture of vanilla
small quantity of otto of bitter almonds
and rose and orange flower essence, and thus
easily makes extract of heliotrope.
The magnolia has pleasing perfume, but
the odor is initiated to perfection without
using the flower at all, because it is too large
to macerate with success. So the magnolia
perfume is furnished by mixture of orange
flower, rose. tuberose and violet essences,
Indian lemon-grass likewise gives extract
of yerbena" With rose as foundation
and dash of verbena, the perfume of the
delicate and heeting "sweet-brier" is obtained.
OF the animal substances, amberrgis, the
secretion of spermaceti whale, gives mel
Ilowness and pernanency to mixtures. Civet,
secretion Of the African and Indian cat,
has an odor harmonizing with floral COM
pounds.
Musk is found in the small pocket or pouch
of the musk deer of China, Tonquin and
Thibet 1t is so powerful, aromatic and per
sistent that one part of musk will scent more
than three thousand parts of inodorous pow
der.
OF the spice SERIES caraway and nutmeg
are largely used and cloves enter into many
perfumes with high-sounding, names. Cinna-
mon or cassia is largely used. Cinnamon or
cassia is the bark of tree. Cassia comes
from China. the true cinnamon from Ceylon,
and the two odorous grasses are natives of
India; one is known as the lemon grass"
from which all our EXTRACTS Of yerbena" and
"verbena water are made, a little addition

benefit of it through chain OF consumers,
ending with themselves, but beginning with
vegetable feeders.
Many of the dwellers in the deep sea have
no eyes, and are, therefore, comparatively
unaffected by the absence of light; for others
that have eyes the gloom is relieved by the
luminous organs which they or their neigh
bors possess.
The temperature, we may be assured, is
well suited to the permanent inhabitants of
each region, so that those surrounded by wa
ter nearly at the freezing point would not
thank us for warming it for them, any more
than the Esquimau is pleased when a rise of
temperature sets everything adrift in his
pavilion of ice.
Thespressure, too, however stupendous to
our imagination. is evidently borne without
concern by creatures which are themselves
permeated by fluids of the same density as
the surrounding medium.
Though also to our taste the chemistry of
sea water is unpalatable. we know that most
marine animals cannot live without it, and
while terrestrial life is limited in it distri-
button, and often put to sore straits by the
scanty supply of fresh water, to the denizens
of the sea the resources for the quenching of
thirst are always at hand, neverfailing and
practically infinite.

And then he hesitatingly related his ad-

"Oh, WELL" said the master, "it is right
after all, for the inscription was the name of
the one to whom ! intended giving it"
"No Runi," was the response. "Not all
of good is found in books, my boy, and you
have richly deserved the prize. The last
day has emphasized my judgment"
Runi's good fortune was the, wonder, of the

The early Egyptians knew the use OF the

odorous principle from fragrant plants, but
the most ancient odors were drawn from nat
llral gums, such as oamphor. myrrh and Gin
namon.
Sweet odors are of three kinds--the floral,
the aromal and the balsamic. The first group
includes all those derived from sweet-smeii-
ing flowers and plants; the second, those
derived from musks and resins; the third,
those derived from leaves and gums. The
otto, or essential oil of perfumes, is obtained
in three several ways -distillation, macera-

In distillation, the. odorous principle is
purified and separated from the grosser parts
by evaporation and subsequent condensation

well known, famous poet, and to
him in his youth Walter Savage Ian

He had no sons, however, never hav-

family name, disappears.
The De Veres were early friends of

that the poet took the name which he
made proverbial and symbolical of a

Lady de We're, the only Lady de We're
