them by It's brilliancy. Floating on the
surface they see great deal OF sayety
and folly and vice, and hastily conclude
that this il French morality and French

do they see but very small part Of Paris
They have no access 10 French society OF

himself from this first impression If he
would Judge justly OF the real character
Of the French people.
Leaving aside these frivolities of gay
capital, and seeking the French In those
interiors which are generally closed 10
foreigners we find their is very strong
feeling OF home In both senses of that
word FIRST, the love of place of fixed
habitation--what phrenologists call the
organ Of locality-is largely developed in
the French nature. They love their coun-
try, and never leave II but with reluctance.
Hence they make poor colonists. While
the English and Germans emigrate the
French can hardly be torn from their ma
tive soil And not only the country but
the province, the city, or the little village
which gave them birth, Is always dear to
them. Go into the country and you find
families that have always lived In the
same place. Generation after generation
has come and gone and still they cling to
the old spot. Children and children's
children are born and die on the same
farm IN the same moss-grown cottage, be.
meath the same matched roof where their
fathers lived and died. This single fact
the love of fixed abode--speaks much
for the home feeling of the French, es-
pecially 10 Americans, since it appears in
such strange contrast 10 the migratory
habits Of their countrymen.
With this love Of the birthplace, the de-

go to Paris 10 find employment, always
have II at heart to return to their native
village. The popular songs which the
workmen sing ut their tasks almost all

they have left, and TO which they hope
some day to return. This is their safe.
guard amid the temptations of great city.
Out Of their little savings they send back
