 The talk was on "The Call of the New Crusade" and Dr. Polling told of his wanderings on foot, in automo- bile and train of the devastated re- gions of Belgium and France,

The question forces me into equivocation that, to say the least, is annoying. think the time has come to announce publicly that Dr. Fe1ter and I have been legally separated
 'f the matter is public,' said pr. Felter, there is no use in my deny ing it. My wife sued me for a, sep { aration in Duchess county in 1917. There is no justice in this country for Q man.

Persian Perfume.

Persia saw the earliest development
Of the perfume industry. The priests
In Egypt, who were the sole deposi.
tories of science, knew the secret of
aromatic substances and prepared
them. Egyptian perfumes acquired
great celebrity, especially those made
in Alexandria. Reserved originally for
religious rites, perfumes subsequently
became of current use among the
wealthy classes. During banque.s they
were diffused through the halls and
were burned In profusion. The Israel
ties during their sojourn in Egypt
adopted the use Of aromatic sub
stances primarily for religious pur-
poses and afterward for personal
usage. The Jews were fond Of cos

the face. All those perfumes were ex-

Away at the south end of the small
city of 5000 population the huge tents
of the Mammoth Three-Ring circus
were pitched. A strike that had tied
up transportation somewhere along the
line was responsible for the Nam
moths sojourn there. for it was big
city circus. The circus would be there
for a week, too. Surely this city of
Windsville was getting to be Won
derful place, the astOnished natives
thought. a.~
But that was not all. In the glamor
and confusion that had arisen with the
arrival of the Mammoth, the citizens
of Windsville had forgotten that the
Puritan Brothers One-ring circus was
billed for a one-day stop in their midst
that very week.
Even when the Puritan did arrive
and pitched its one small tent on a
northern lot at the outskirts of the
city, the residents in the North end
were the only ones to show any inter-
est; a very weak interest it was, at
that.
The Mammoth people were not 60
ing to get out of practice just because
they were marooned in q small town.
With all their splendor they launched
out for their grand street parade on
the day that the Puritan thought it
was the center of attraction. So en-
crossed and \ enraptured were the
Windsvilleites. with the wonderful pa
rade- that they failed to notice the
rllain of poorly painted wagons that
net the big parade In the center of the
city and had to turn down side street
to avoid q collision.

the side street took their eyes from the
main attraction long enough to iden-
tify the rumbling wagons as gypsy

dead as the brothers 1t was named
after, and they had been dead for Atty
years. 1t was hard for Mona Millson,
star performer and owner Of the Puri-
tan, to make up her mind to this fact,
but the clash at Windsville decided 1t
for her. Her venture was failure. AS
a circus owner she was q good clown.
OF course, they wouldn't have an
afternoon performance. Even the
North end residents deserted the
nelghborhood in favor Of the Mammoth
as the matinee hour approached.
Mona's disappointment knew no
bounds. She had hoped against hope
that this stop would net receipts suf-
ficient to keep the creditors of until
the show could get on a better footing,
