EAU DE COLOGNE
MAY BE RENAMED
French Dislike Label of Famous
Toilet Water, Invented
by Italian.

We are told that French papers are
suggesting new French names for eau
de cologne. But why not call it eau
de farina, after the name of its eigh-
teenth-century inventor? John Maria
Farina was not a German, by the way,
but an Italian, says "The Manchester
Guardian" The secret recipe is sup
posed to have been handed down to the
descendants Of his family and connec-
items. who manufacture il under his
name TO this day. Most of them are in
Cologne but not all To get the orig
inal and veritable eau de cologne you
need not deal with the enemy alien.
Some Of Farina's descendants are in
Italy manufacturing an eau de cologne
Just as original and veritable as shat
from Cologne itself.
In Englard as in other places (includ-
ing ColoCnc) there are limitations of
eau de cologne Manufactured which ex-
erts say are a. good as or better than
the real thing. The famous perfume
is a blend of the essential oils OF neroli
from sort Of orange), citron, berga-
mot two other relations of the orange
family, rosemary and the orange itself.
The citric scent chat of oranges,
lemons and limes) is obviously the pre-
dominant odor.

ment will also contain S2-foot reed
stop.
Case dimensions Of the largest organ
ever made by the Austin company are
46 feet wide, Il feet deep and az feet
high. The wind pressure on tho main
organ varies from 10 inches to 70 inches
for the heaviest reeds. The echo organ
is on 5-incb wind. For each pedal ~
foot stop will be three valves, instead
of only one, as in nearly all other or
CANA. Tho power will be furnished by
two large orgoblows. Instead OF the
bellows, which were formerly IN al
organs, the wind pressure will be regu-,
lated By the Austin patent universal
chest system.
To construct such an organ as the
one intended for the San Francisco ex-
position requires many weeks OF work.
After each part has been turned out the
organ is assembled in the large erecting
room, where the parts are htted TO-
gether TO the satisfaction Of the ex-
perts. This work is laborious, but when
the organ is finally completely assem-
bled il is taken down and packed into
huge boxes ready for its long journey.
Many of the parts, all Of which are
unusually sensitive, are packed in ex-
celsior so that any chance injury may
be avoided.
The tuning, which is the most deli
cate Job Of all, almost invariably re-
auires at least two weeks. This work
must be done when the building IS at an
even temperature Of about 70 degrees,
as the variation of eveu one degree Will
throw many Of the pipes out of tune.

care deeply what people think of me.
Lots Of stories and scandals have been
circulated about me that are not true
and they hurt me more and more with
repetition. My reputation was built
largely on the don't care" song, which
has been my tyrant. / want every one
to know how that song came TO be as
ISOLATED so inseparably with me. Sew

comedy and played the role of a happy

the refrain, 81 don't care" IL was the
girl in the play and not Eva Tanguay
who was supposed to sing 1t.
When ! went into vaudeville, shortly
afterward, | naturally looked about for
the material in which | had scored the
biggest hits OF my musical comedy
cSreer, and the 81 Don't Care" song
suggested itself to me as the best eli
max for my act. Accordingly adopted
that song and made an instantaneous
hit, but I was no longer playing the
role of the musical comedy girl and
audiences had forgotten her.

time | sang it. People now do not
realize that l am playing part on the
stage. They think that the real, sure
flesh and blood Eva is singing about

people who think that life is just one
d-n thing after another. On the
contrary, / believe that life is just one
grand thing after another.
