The Perfumery
Nuisance
By DOROTHY DIX.

a P f r F L NJ 2 R Y manufacturer,
~ speaking for the Perfumery
Manufacturers Association be-
fore the Ways and Means Committee
in Washington the other day. made a
pathetic protest against increasing
the duty on the raw materials from
which extracts are made. And he
said he wasn't speaking for himself.
but for the sake of the poor girls who
would have TO cut down on their use
Of scent if prices were raised.
Quoth he:
The best market for perfumery is
In the factory towns of New England.
Why, 1 know of a typewriter who
spends at least two days salary each
week on her toilet articles. l ask
that perfumery-this slice of happi-
ness-be preserved to the shopgirl
and the factory girl. for they are the
ones who enjoy it most"
Most Of us who ride in street cars
and attend theaters and other crowd
ed places wish that the price Of per-
fumery could be put up so high that 1t
would be prohibitive, and that the
women and men whose Slice Of hap
piness" consists in going about smell
ing TO Heaven could be denied that
malodorous joy. To use altar Of roses
is a breach of the peace. To dissent
nate patchouli is a crime that should
be punishable by law.
However, that is another story. So
is the instance of the girl typewriter
who spends the proceeds Of two days
work a week on her toilet articles.
If young woman prefers to put cold
cream and rouge on the outside OF her
face instead of roast beef and pota-
toes on the inside, it is her own at
fair.
A girl will have her bit OF ribbon
II she has to go without bread to get
IT, She VIII SILVER for lack of sutfi-
Client clothing to put the money in a
string of imitation pearls. She Will
90 without lunches through a whole
winter TO save up to buy a willow
plume in the spring. She will sit up
half the night, doing without the sleep
and rest she needs. to make her silly
lace trimmed garments which have no
wear in them. She puts her hard
earned money in flimsy silk stockings
and paper soled pumps that come to
pieces at the first wearing, instead OF
good, substantial stockings and shoes.
Nor Is the working girl the only
sinner in this respect. Practically all
women put ornaments and show be-
fore use. Give a woman certain
sum OF money TO furnish a mouse, anu
she will spend three-fourths OF 1t on
bric-a-brac and gilt chairs for which
she has no earthly use, while she does
without the things in the kitchen that
would lessen her labor by half. She
viii have a brocaded sofa in the par
Tor that is too good to sit upon, al
though her family has not a single
comfortable bed on which 10 sleep.
Then there is the woman who lit
orally starves her family in order that
it may make a show when II goes out
on the street. She denies her chill
dren the milk and butter and meat
that they need to make them healthy
and strong, 70 put lace on their petit
coats and fur on their caps,and she
works herself into the grave and her
husband into nervous prostratlon for
the sake of living in a little better
neighborhoOd and dressing a little
finer than they can afford.

Helen took q quick inventory Of the

about her eyes
Helen wondered what could have gone
wrong And then as she saw her glance

Enthusiastically flushed and loquacious II
was plain that he had had several
drinks before dinner And with all those
glasses before him Helen could well

Warren praised the sherry. and Mr.
Thurston insisted on having the glasses

was served
As the dinner progressed Helen no
tieed that Mrs Thurston was watching
her husband more and more anxiously.
He was drinking much more than was
good for him. After The claret had
come the champagne, Of which he had
already drained two glasses. As War

Mrs Thurstou. who had been toying

II was a humiliatlng order 10 give,
and she flushed painfully, for she knew
they had either heard or OWNED her

A few moments later Mr. Thurston
motioned toward his empty glass. How
