Poverty and Drink.
The General Secretary of the Neigh-
borhood Workers' Association, Toron-
to, a Family Welfare Organization,
gives the following .''gores in his an-
nual reports:—In 1919, nine cases of
need were due to intemperance,
amounting to 1.all cases. 'g 17 % of es. In
1920 the percentage,was 1.27%, where-
as in 1921 and 1922 the p»rcentage was
.08 of all cases in need. Previous to
prohibition, in 15 to 18 per cant, of
families, the cause of poverty could
be traced to intemperance. In the re-
port this statement is made, "Before
prohibition came into effect, not only
was intemperance a problem in itself.,
but a factor in most of the other prob-
lems. To -clay intemperance is prac-
tically a negligible quantity, as a,
cause of poverty."
The last annual report of the Board
of License Commissioners for Ontario
states: "Intoxicated men are rarely

Previous to the Referendum, a morn-
ing paper; in an editorial calling the
temperance people to arms, said, "An
Ontario in which no drunkard's child
shall be afraid of his father's home-
comings, and no drunkard's wife
ashamed of the man to whom she look-
ed for happiness; in which there shall
be no hospitals, prisons or asylums
filled with the human wreckage of the
soul-destroying traffic—surely that is
an end worthy of the best endeavor of
every man and woman of humane in-
stincts," The results already obtained
in many directions indicate that the
end of the endeavor is a practioal is-

In a City of Scent.
Of all the world's industries;, scent-
niaking is one of the most pleasant.
It is also one of the most fa.scinatin•g.
The greatest centre in the world for
making perfumes is Grasse, on the
beautiful •Cote d'Azur, in France. It
is from here that the great perfumery
firms of London and Paris obtain their
supplies and the demand for Grasse
•Irroduets is continuously increasing.
Enormous quantities of flowers have
to he grown in order to keep this lldei
industiy going, and Grasse is
surrounded by field after field of won-
derful blooms o,;,all kinds.
Every morning large lorries tiled
with picked blossoms rumble through
the streets to the factories, where they
unload and return to the fields for
more.
Inside the factory there is a scene of
glowing color and an almost over-
powering perfume of many flowers.
Girls and women are seated before
long tables, surrounded by great heaps
of blooms, The first proceeding is to
take out any stalks or leaves that have
been overlooked by the expert pickers
who collected the flowers In the fields.
The stamen is also removed from
each flower as it is useless for scent.
The petals and the pistil are the real
providers of scent and are retained.
The blooms are distilled in giant cope
pets with just sufficient water to cover
them. When orange blossom is dis-
tilled an essence known as "neroli" Is
obtained and this is used as a base for
making the world-famous Eau -de -Col-
ogne..
The distillation of roses yields "rose
essence" and "rose water." In order
to get one kilogramme of actual rose-
perfume, 10,000 lbs•, of flowers are re-
quired, and this explains why this kind
of scent is so 'expensive.
These fascinating factories not
-only make scents and perfumes but
also pomades for toilet purposes. The
flowers are dipped in some fatty sub-
stance, usually grease or olive oil. This
absorbs the smell of the particular
flower dipped and later is put into the
bottles and boxes in which it is to be
sold.
The most difficult of all blooms from
which to extract perfume is the honey-
suckle.
Some idea of the importance of the
scent industry here can be obtained
from the fact that more than 5,000,000
lbs, -df flowers are gathered annually,
The greater part of this great total is
composed of roses, orange blossoms,
and jasmine.

YOUNG DAUGHTER
MADE WELL
Mother Tells How Her Daughter
Suffered and Was Made Well by
Lydia F. Pinkhalin's Vegetable
Compound
Vancouver, B. 0.—" My daughter is
young girl who has been having severe
pains and weak and dizzy feelings for
some time and had lost her appetite.
Through an older daughter who had
heard of a woman who was taking it
for the same trouble, we were told of
Lydia E. Pinkliam's Vegetable Com-.
pound. My daughter has been taking it
for several months and is quite all right
now. It has done all it was represented
to do and we have told a number of
friends about it. I am never without
a bottle of it in the house, for I myself
take it for that weak, tired, worn-out
feeling which sometimes comes to us all.
I find it is building me up and 1 strongly
recommend it to women who are sutfer-
ing as I and any daughter have,"—Mrs.
J. McDommn, 2947 26th Ave. East,
Vancouver, B. C.
From the age of twelve a girl needs all
the care a thoughtful mother can give.
Many a woman has suffered years of
pain and misery, the victim of thought-
lessness or ignorance of the mother who
should have guided her during this time.
If she complains of headaches, pains
in the back and lower limbs, or if you
notice a slowness of thought, nervous-
ness or irritability on the part of your
slaughter, make life easier for her.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com-
pound is especially adapted for such
conditions. C
