men watchmakers earn from three to five francs,
or from half crown to four and two pence, and
jewellers the same. Those workmen who re-
celve the best wages are marble-cutters and
stone cutters, their daily earnings averaging from
five to six francs, or from four and two pence to
five shillIngs. Next to them are the printers,
whose wages average from four to five francs
The worst paid workmen in Paris are the shoe
makers. Their wages vary from two francs 10
two and half francs per day. or from ten chill
Iings to twelve and six pence per week. They
are, in fact no better paid for their labor than the
hodmen who work at new buildings. or the paviors
who toll in the streets The exceeding lowness
of the wages which the shoemakers receive in
Paris, and, indeed, in all parts of France, ac-
counts for the great cheapness Of French boots
and shoes, as compared with those which are
made in England. Boots as good as those which
there cost twenty eight or thirty shillings can be
procured in Paris for fourteen fifteen shlings.

THE TRUTH, SOMETIMES NOT FOUND OU7

OUCH is often the case in regard to persons taking
y medicine. They are induced by plausible rea-
soning false representation and doctrines, to employ
medicines that, so far from being adapted to their
disease or sickness, absolutely increase the symp-
toms, destroy the constitution, rack the whole
system and bring on gradual decline, terminating
in death previous to the fatal termination, however
(but unfortunately too late the truth IS found out
that the pills, mixtures &C. they have been taking
were composed Of the most powerful and dangerous
ingredients prepared too by persons knowing nothing

mend depending altogether upon the general doc
