MUSK IS MOST
POWERFUL ODOR
Secretion of Male Deer of Pe
culiar Species Is Very
Valuable
Musk is one product of world
commerce in which China practically
enjoys a monopoly— not a large one.
to lie sure, siuce the annual output .
is at l>est only some $400,000 sold,
but the product itself is 'worth many 1
time its weight in silver, and for
that matter, sold as well, in these '
days of high exchange, says the Far ,
Kastern Review, Chungking.
About one-half of the total output
stays in China and is used especially I
by the Cantonese in compounding
pills that form the best -known rem- i
cdy in the Chinese pharmacopaeia !
for Asiatic cholera. 'The Chinese]
also use musk to keep moths out of j
furs and clothing, and as a perfume,
the odor being quite popular in the
better -grades of perfumery.

portent. Sometimes, when the road
from Sungpan to Chengtu is unsafe, j

will be taken south and marketed
iin Tengyuch to go to India. This
happened to a considerable part of 1
the output in 1!*15. when 6.590 oun
ces out of a total of 25,367 were

musk crop was $266,000 gold. In

$407,000 gold.l were shipped. re

the perfume industries. France has
been the largest purchaser of China's
must;, Uie United States being sec
ondi.bnt in 1815, the United States
forged ahead and bought more than
a quarter of the entire output.
Good musk is bought for 10 times ,
it weight -in silver at Sungpan. and
t at Chungking for 1£ to 25 times, so
there is a heavy profit somewhere.

various points along the l.ungan
road, where every coolie seems to
have some about him. and the inns
reek with the sickly smell. The
j musk is brought down in its pod.

state by its overpowering stench:

musk are rejected. It is retailed by

I loyalty in his nature it wouldn't do

WRITE TO HIM
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
I ant nineteen and engaged. A
few days ago I received a letter from
a friend of my fiance (a married
; man) saying that I should break off
the engagement at the wish of my
1 tiance and return the ring without
| asking any questions. Now, Miss
Fairfax, do you advise me to return
the ring or wait until my fiance calls
. j at my home and offers an expiana
'|tion? He has proved that he loves
I me, so I cannot make out what
I it all means.
CYNTHIA.
I am heartily out of sympathy
' with your accepting any "com
! mands" from this friend of your
! fiance. Either you or some mem
ber of your family ought to write a
dignified little letter to the man you
! were planning to marry. Tell him
t hat you feel he owes you an ex- j
plana'tion of his conduct: that the
ietter from his friend puzzled you,
and that you are unaware of nny
' thing that has come between you,
.
MARCH 28, 1918.
ycni cannot conceive why he could)
have let an outsider write you a!
letter that hurt you so. Tell him|
that you have no thought of try-j
ing to hold him against his will cr
of attempting to make him do any
thing lie no longer desires to do.
Ask him to either write to you or

of hearts; tell him that since lie
wants to be free, he shall be free,;
but that you feel strongly (anil
