NeroIt,

Essence of neroli is obtained from a
species Of orange tree grown in Prov
ence. The trees-are grown for their
flowers, but are cultivated as are fruit
trees. The flowers are picked by hand
every two days, in April and May, for
high-priced perfume essence. Full
blown flowers are gathered either In
linen sheets or in pals. The 20
pounds weight of flowers gathered by
q good workman in one days work is
sent to the distillery in bags. About
1000 pounds of flowers produce two
pounds of essence.

face without leaving a scar. Pimples
broke out all over my face, red and
large. They festered and came to
head. They itched and burned and
caused me to scratch them and make
sores. They said they were seed
warts. At night was restless from
itching. When the barber would
shave me my face would bleed terri
bly,. Then scabs would form after
wards, then they would drop of and
the so-caIled seed warts would come
back again. They were on my face
for about nine months and the trou-

Look back at your childhood days. Remember the "dose" mother insisted on-castor oil, calomel, eathartics. How you hated them, how you fought against taking them.
 With our children it's different. Mothers who cling to the old form of physic simply don't realize what they do The children's revolt is well-found- ed. Their tender little 'insides" are injured by them.
 If your child's stomach, liver and bowels need cleansing, give only deli cious California Syrup of Figs" It's action is positive, but gentle.

Little Paul Porpare had heard the mules laugh, or at least make noises that sounded like laughter, and so when he saw a sad-faced jack stand ing loose near a stable at Cypress avenue and Troutman street, Brook lyn, he decided 1t should be cheered up. Little Paul-he Is five years old and lives at 31 Wyckoff avenue-got a straw and tickled the mules ear. The mule sort of grinned and shook Its head, but didn't hee-haw. Then little Paul tried again. This time the mule whirled about quickly, raised his heels and the next sounds that little Paul heard were the clang of an ambulance bell and the hee-haw of the mule, com bined.

 Mexico City.-At the close of the elections held in Mexico the indica- tions were that not sufficient votes had been cast to constitute a legal choice for the presidency to succeed Gen. Vic toriano Huerta.
 It was unofficially estimated, judg- ing from the results in the capital, where it was expected the vote would be up to the average, that less than 10000 of the S0,000 eligibles in the republic went to the polls. It would be no surprise if congress, the mem bers of which also were voted for, de clared the elections void when that body is organized and revises the re- turns.
 The leaders of the Catholic party claimed a long lead, although they were unable to estimate the number of votes boiled for their candidates, Federico Gamboa and General Rascon
 If this claim is correct, it is gener- ally thought that Gen. Felix Diaz and
  eral candidates, Manuel Calero and Flores Magon, had no printed ticket their supporters being obliged to write their names on the blank ballots.
 President Huerta did not vote. He spent the day at Popotla, his suburban home
