PERFUMED AIR IN A HOTEL
About the Limit Even in This Age
That Is UnrivaIed in Its
Luxury.

The ultra" of scientific hotel ac-
commodations has reached Los An.
geles Soon guests of the Hotel Alex
andria will not breathe the ordinary
air which circulates the highways and
byways.
No, indeed, monsieur and madame
must be made comfortable; therefore,
the dining salons and foyers of this
hotel will be equipped with perfumed
air.
And to make this innovation in the
hotel business even more complete
the orders which reach the nostrils
of Alexandria guests will vary with
the seasons.
For instance, according to Manager
S. ]. Whitmore, spring will announce
itself to the city dweller who never
visits the byways by delicate aroma
of violet; little later the scent will
change, and the delicate "parfum" Of
the orange blossom will be de riguer.
With autumn will come the Indian
summery fragrance of pine needles
the virgin forest. With winter, be-
cause this is southern California,
roses.
Exhaust fans which pump in cool
air through a rainstorm of scented
waters will make this possible. All
grill and the banquet hall invisible
supply fans will constantly keep
new current of perfumed air in circu-
lation among the diners and loungers.
Should monsieur wish to give a lit
tie dinner in a private dining-room
and have fancy for the scent Of Law
ender, then it will be supplied to him
throughout the meal.
1T is our object" said Mr.. Whit
more, "to give our guests the most
attractive environment. After care.
full consideration we find that the per.
fumed air for our dining-rooms will
be a pleasing touch for all those who
wish to enjoy it. The only danger,
of course, would be in overriding the
thing. None would want to take a
meal in a salon saturated with the
odor of orange blossoms, for exam
pie. Our tinctures are to be delicate,
however. The perfumes will give
natural aroma; no more. Los An.

SHOULDN'T TAKE HIM LONG
Mark Twain's Occupation, According
to Little Daughter, Would Have
Been Brief.

Mark Twain, about the time that he
was working hard upon one of the
earlier books that brought him fame,
sailed for tour of Europe with his
family.
He kept up his writing on shipboard
and only left it at intervals for brief
recreation.
One day an approaching storm drove
him inside the cabin and he went
back to work, leaving word with his
daughter, then a very little girl, to ex-
plain his absence.
"If they ask for me-" he said to her,
say that won't be long-I am only
going to write an anecdote."
A little later the child was accosted
by a passenger.

the inquiry.
He won't be long" lisped the child.

On the second floor there are two

Most Civilized Nation.

The question, (which is the most
civilized nation on earth?" is difficult
to answer. Civilization is very elias
tic term and is, understood differently
in different times and places. In sci
entific attainment, education, wealth
and all the things that go along with
wealth, the United States, Great Brit
ain and Germany would appear to lead
the procession, with some other ma
tions following closely. But, taking
all things into consideration, eliminat-
ing the sole matter Of wealth, the most
civilized country on earth is probably
Norway. In that far northern land
the ideal civilization, that, is, the civil
lization that rests on common sense
and justice, seems to have matured
to greater extent than it has any
where else.

TERMS OF THE WILL
by GEORGE MUNsoN.

The news OF Uncle WINS death was
great shock to me. read 1t in the
morning papers. He was among the
killed in the accident on the Pacific
South-Central railway. The train had
left the tracks while travelling along
the bank of the JUDY river In Colo
rado, and five cars had plunged be-
meath the swirling torrent. There
was no possibility of rescuing any
one; the death Of all the occupants
had been immediate.
Uncle VIII must have had a pre-
sentiment Of his death, because, an
hour before leaving his office on the
way west, where he had to attend a
conference on some one of those ma
tional movements in which he was
always interested. He had dictated
new will to his stenographer. Miss
Clarke. Miss Clarke had typewritten
1t and two OF the clerks had witnessed
his signature.
Tho relatives were summoned to
meet ut the house of Mr.. Brewster,
the family lawyer. Brewster smiled
when he saw me and Marjorie enter.
Il wish you luck, my dear fellow"
he whispered, before the formalities
began.
l had always been a prime favorite
of Uncle Win. He had left me a good
round sum, was sure. If he had died
the year before l should not have
been so sure, because he was deeply
mortified when Anne Clafidge and l
broke our engagement. 1t was Anne
who wanted to be free, but Of course
Uncle VIII, in his pig-headed way
had thought was to blame. He had
always been fond of Anne. Even
after Anne married Jim Thornton, a
month later-which ought to have
shown Uncle viii where the blame
lay-he was suspicious of me.
"A man who breaks an engagement
TO a girl wants a lot of justification, "
he said to me.
l couldn't persuade him that l had
wanted to marry Anne. believe he
cut me out of his will about then.

Beechnut Season.

This is the beechnut season, and
when beechnuts are ripe no city man
bred in the country knows perfect rest
of mind. He wants to go back home.
The beechnut is diminutive, but it is
full of meat and flavor. Some folks
say that the jay bird and the red
headed woodpecker haven't any sense.
They have sense enough to prefer the
beechnut to any other edible which
grows. The jay is more than human,
anyway, and he has a lot more sense
than a good many humans, and so the
wonder constantly grows why it is
that the man who is not up to snuff is
called jay. The beech tree does
more for man than to give him its
nut-brown October offering. Its gray
bole shines warmly when the sun
strikes it. It's sight suggests warmth
in winter and GOODNESS in summer
The shade of the beech's dropping
boughs is one of the grateful bounties
of August.-Chicago Post.
