In a Perfume Factory.

Musk is perhaps the most valuable
and delightful of all perfumes, yet the
refner, as he opens the musk pods,
must wear thick cloth over mouth and
nostrils, so repulsive is the odor that
the pods emit Indeed this odor inhaled
for any length of time causes nose.

Civet, karagulnc and ambergris have

Successful Root and Herb Remedy.

The study of roots and herbs, their
character and power over disease, was
what led Lydia L. Pinkham of Lynn,
Mass, to produce for woman's ills the
most successful remedy the world has
ever known, and while she passed to her
reward some years ago, her work among
suffering women is still carried on by
trained assistants, and many tons of
roots and herbs are consumed annually
in the manufacture of the now famous
Lydia i. Pinkhams Vegetable Com
pound, as originated by her.-Advt.

A woMAN's GREAT WORK
Toward Quieting Foolish Noises in New
York City.

In the Interesting People depart
ment of the February American Maya
zine appears an account OF Mrs. Isaac
Rice, u woman of wealth and position
who is the moving spirit in the So
ciety for the Suppression of Unnecessary
Noise. IL is astonishing how much this
powerful and energetic woman has been
able to accomplish in the way of quiet
ing foolish whistles and other noises
that make life hdeous in a great city.
Following is an extract;-
at was in 1905 that Mrs. Rice,
woman of wealth and position in New
York, taking notice OF the extraordinary
excess of night noises on the Hudson
river, began to investigate and tabulate.
/ She discovered that for one given list
ening area the river would produce an
average of about three thousand toots a
night, but that there was no law against
them; the river Tas a free soundway.
She set about personally collecting evi.
dence and petitions. appealed to the de-
partment of health and the collectors
office, visited Washington and convened
with authorities, and effected reform.
"This has always been Mrs. Rices
method OF proeedure-doing the work
herself The next year, 1906, when she
had organized the anti noise society, she
still did the work. When she promu-
gated the quiet hospital zones PROPOSE
tion--then unheard of and unthought of
she visited all the hospitals and con-
suited with the physicians, and visited
the various city departments and con-
suited with the officials: she wastes no |
time in working with impracticable tools |
She organized the children into humani- |
tartan brigades and got Mark Twain to
head them.
"When this movement in the interest
of the sick naturally led into a more
specific crusade against the customary |
noises of our Fourth of July ceebra-
tions, and then against the needless sac
rifice of life and limb each year, Mrs.
Rice pursued her usual tactics. She her
self struck at the roots, collected Stats
tics, prepared pamphlets, wrote maya
zine articles, wrote Internationally
thousands of them,-visited the schools
and talked with the children, planned
substitute celebrations and helped carry
them out. !
''Her working day varies from six to
sixteen hours, six days in the week.
She rises at half-past five and takes
4 long walk; in this she kills two birds
with one stone by getting her exercise
and noting the early morning noises,
their character and excuses.
"She even presses her children into
service flor Mrs. Rice is not one OF
hose present-day women of achievement
who have no time for home or (
amily; she has perfectly maintained
home and an exceptionally
cared and talented group OF six chill
renl, and puts them TO tying up pa
,ers or letters for reference or distribu-
ion.
1T is impossible to chronicle briefly
What she has done, what she is doing,
II how she does it: she is marvel of
ystematized energy and enthusiasm.
Ind with her it is labor of love. There =
re not many women who would work J
S hard as she does, and as persist
ntly and consistently, just for the love
+ doing it and seeing the results"

His Idea of Looking Wise.

"What was the matter with you while

Why, nothing. He was talking about

Buys Ensilage Cutter.

The Hudson Houston Lumber com
pany has received an ensilage cut
ter to be used with the Common
Sense silo which they are selling.
The cutter is a very simple arrange
ment and can be set to chop cane,
kaffir, maize or any other feed that
is to be stored in half inch or inch
lengths, and suction pipe or wind
stacker is so arranged that the cut
feed or ensilage is sent to the silo
without being tSuched with the
hands. Mr.. Hudson bought with his
line of yards and 100 machines were
purchased at the same time. The silo
has come to stay. Every farmer who
has tried one is pleased, in every
state more silos are being sold
every year. They belong to every
farm where stock is kept. One of
these cutters will prepare ten to fif-
teen tons of feed per hour and 1t
will do the work for ten farmers 1t
is mounted on wheels and can be
hauled quickly from one farm to an
other. BY several farmers dividing
the cost the expense falls lightly on
all.
