Do you love perfumes? -1 am sure you
do, or else, -as we 'say In-French, we
could not be "sympathetlque."
I 'simply adore perfumes. They are
everything to me. Medicine, rest cure,
stimulants, allayers of grief, soothers ot
pain and a constant delight.
In Paris on the Rue de La Paix there
Is a house with a large court yard, and
pn the, far side of the court yard 'you
enter a pretty little white" door which
leads to the most graceful blue and sli
ver salon. It doesn't look the least little
bit like a shop, but it really Is a most
exclusive store where perfumes are tsold,
and where people go to have new per
fumes made for them especially. The
great chemist who lives 'above this -blue
shop will combine the most wonderful
odors or concoct new ones to .suit your
taste, and you can buy ot him the entire
output of one particular perfume that
suits your fancy.
I was very anxious to preserve the odor
of some beautiful roses which were sent
to me on a cold winter's day directly
from Nice, and I took them to this per
fumer. A few days afterward he had
made a perfume that was the most ex
quisite odor of roses I have ever smelled,
and just exactly like the roses I had
brought him. This special brand of rose
perfume Is made only for me. But while
paring a paper on "Emerson the Philos
opher," for the meeting. Other members
of the club will report on "Sanborn's
Estimate of Emerson" and "Emerson ant
Trancendentallsm." Emerson's "Compensation"-
and "American Scholar" will
be studied. The current event's session
of the meeting will be In charge of Miss
Ada Stiger.
The social meeting planned by the
Imogen club of Florence for Thursday
has been postponed until December 12.
It will be an evening altalr at the home
of Mrs. F. H. Reynolds with the' bus
bands of the' members as guests.
Professor Paul A. Grummann will In
terpret Ibsen's "The Vikings," and lec
ture on "Grtmanic Goddesses" giving
parallels In classical mythology, at the
Young Women's Christian association
Monday afternoon.
The Story Tellers' league will hold Its
annual election of officers and plan Its
work for the coming year Thursday
afternoon at the Public library. Th
program committee of which Miss Emma
Roslcky Is chairman will submit an out
line ot miscellaneous stories for th
league's approval.
The children of th member of the
Mothers' Culture club are going to pre
pare a big Christmas box of toys and
goodies for a family of boys and girlx,
the oldest ot whom Is 13, out In Cook
county. This was decided at a called
meeting of the club Saturday afternoon
at the home of Mrs. W. 11. Indoe, the
president of the club.
Mrs. John King Van Rensselaer of

"I LOVRTHE FAINT AND DELIGHTFUL OD.OR OF APPLE BLOSSOMS."
I love to use only one perfume at a time,
and I don't think anyone else should use
more than one, I soon grow very tlrod
of the same odor, and so I change from
roses to violets, and then back to freslas
or the faint and delightful odor of apple
blossoms, according to my mood. No One
should ever mix perfumes. My old chem
ist told me that, and the reason Is that
most perfumes are not made of real flow
ers, but of chemicals. - If your perfumes
were all distilled from flowers),' the odors
would blend just as the perfumes In a
bouquet do, but with chemicals you never
can tell, so I want to warn you In per
fuming your wardrobe especially, not to
mix scents.
My perfumes are made up In two dif
ferent ways, as a liquid and as a sachet.
The Hquld Is UHed for toilet purposes, and
pieces of flannel are dipped Into the
strong essence and used in various ways
among my clothes. In my hats, for In
stance, under the lining and sometimes In
the new toques, forming the entire bun
deau, the strongly scented flannel la
used. This keeps the hat from exhaling
the curious odors of felt or beaver or vel
vet, and feathers which always are most
dlHagreeable, especially in damp weather.
Besides that, it perfumes the hair, which
I find quite delightful.
The liquid perfume Is used In the bath
diluted with spirits of cologne, aud some
times when I am very Ored my eyes are
She is at present sorting out a large
collection of - Interesting ccids , for the
Historical society of. New York. She
gave years ago a large assortment to a
museum in Gln Island, N. Y., a" town
not far from the ancestral liome of . the
Knickerbocker Patroon Van Rensselaer
and his descendants. "The Devil's Pic
ture - Book," by Mrs. Van Rensselaer, is
considered the highest authority on cards
and curd collections.
There Is said to be a movement on foot
to reward Miss Grace Strachan, who wen
the equal pay for equal work bill for
the teachers of New York, with a fund
of $200,000. Miss Strachan says, fiowever,
that she Is not personally aware that
any such effort Is being made and that
she would not accept any such glfrt from
the teachers.
Miss Harriet Dickson of Piqua, O., is
state superintendent of juvenile grange
work. The farmers have their grange
meetings and their wives also go to the
meetings, taking the children with them.
The children. In a room by themselves,
are taught manner - by the - juvenile
grange leader and are also taught ele
mentary lessons in botany and in agri
culture generally.
Queen Wilhelmlna says that when she
was a child she disliked the piano and
would not learn muslj. She has declared
that her little daughter, Juliana, need not
learn music either, unless she really
cares for It, as she believes time spent
In that way is lost unless there Is a
real love for music.
Mary Anderson de Katarro Is the
"mysterious" personage who helped Rob
ert Hit-hens dramatise "The Garden of
Allah." Mme. de Navarro cam to New
York recently to help stage "The Garden
of Allah" and to b present at Its pre
miere. She declared that th tast of

bathed with my favorite perfume, which
I find very restful, and which Is said to
be an.exeellept way. to erase the slight
likes of fatigue or sleeplessness whloh
Bhow around the eye.
Very strong odors are apt to make one
tired, especially If the odor is too sweet,
and i heavy, perfume Is not good for the
voice, so that singers usually taboo It
The most delightful perfume Is that
which la exhaled by a carefully scented
wardrobe rather than by a heavy applica
tion ot scent to the handkerchief, or to
some part of the frock. All of my
clothes closets are lined with sachets
which look like thin satin quilts.- Small
sachets are sewn to the Insides of my
petticoats, and wherever I have trim
ming, such as flowers, .on my frocks,
these flowers have the natural odor which
is placed in their petals by the means
of tiny sachets.
When you are very depressed or tired,
try this way of .Boothlng your nerves:
Pour a little of your' favorite perfume In
a small quantity of warm water, saturate
a soft linen cloth with perfume and place
this over your face, while you He down
In a room where the air Is fresh. To me
my favorite perfume is far more Intoxi
cating and exhlleratlng than champagne,
and I believe It belongs to the art of
keeping young, as well as to a woman's
personal charm, to have her favorite odor
around her. .

The Garden of Allah" had not reawak

stage. Kho believed she had found

quiet home life -if rural - England than
the glory and glamour of a brilliant
stage career.
To arouse Interest In and stimulate to
action anything which . makes for the
uplift of the child Is the object of the
Cnlty Child Welfare association of New
York, of which Mrs. Frances Schroeder
