dents occurring here" said one OF the
young men employed at the public Ii
brary. "Books are asked for that we
never heard of, and many that have nc
existence. The other day young lady
came in and looked over the catalogue in
a very knowing way. When she couldn't
find what she wanted she came over tt

for mamma, but I don't find it in the

An intelligent setter is that owned by
Editor Crosby, of The Boston Advertiser,

Life in Paris.

This fiat method of living cuts off the
people from any out-of-door life except
that Of tic boulevarIs and the public
parks, and yet no people love the open air
like the Parisians They spend but little
time, summer or winter, in their rooms.
The bouIevards are full from eight in the
morning until after midnight; and
women take their work and go off with
their children to spend the whole day in
the parks. The Champs Elysees is al
ways full of nurses in caps with babies in
their arms. You may see peasant women
knitting In the garden of the Tuileries
and in those of the Luxembourg palace.
Girls take tacir sewing to the great park
of 2, 900 and more acres Of forest known as
the Bots dc Boulogne, and found quite
a colony of women chatting and working
in the grotto Of the Buttes Chamont
within sight of the grand cascade and al
most in the spray Of the cool water. This
last park is a little gem situated in one Of
the poorest quarters of Paris.-Frank G.

T.."np-::, :,,n oi .insh;ng n dog, drying,
and .,roonl;n'; h:.l occupies from fifteen
mjnIt.s t. IN hour or more, and it costs
FROM ;5,Jtr - cent. The dog is placed in the
tub, which has been half filled with cold
or lukewarm water tinged with ira
grant compound which is used, they say,
for washing sheep in Australia. Then he
is soaDcd until he presents the lathery and
scared appearance OF pug-nosed man IN
the hands of q shampOOer, rinsed, rubbed
dry, and finally combed brushed, and an
ointed with choice scent. Occasionally
uneven coats require clipping. Some
dogs, indeed, are clipped twice and thrice
during the summer season. But bathing
and grooming are the specialtieS OF the
establishment.
The habitueS of tn place are, as is the
case with mankind, of different DISPOSE
tions. An aged and hideous French poo
die, of large dimensions and appalling ug-
illness, who requires three baths week to
be presentable, walks up to the tub and
Jumps into it with evident satisfaction.
A genuine bulldog has to be carried into
the receptacle and muzzled and held fast
while the operation is in progress. The
affectionate and delicate little Yorkshire
and Skyes put on an air OF resignation,
and the pugs submit stupidity to the
bather's manipulation. Some owners
bring their dogs once week to be washed;
occasionally lady shopping leaves her
pet and returns from her tour to find it
sleeker and glossier than ever. From
three to q dozen dogs are thus washed
daily. But the bulk of the business is
transacted by visiting employees. These
wear uniform cap and carry small
valise with the utensils and perfumes re-
quired for the operation, the opulent
dogs having generally bathrooms of their
own. In Brooklyn every Saturday one
of the operators has fifteen residents to
visit. 1t may be worth mentioning that
this particular official is an admirable
French scholar whose engagement was
made imperative presumably by the in
creased foreign element in the quadru-
pedal population of the city.-New York

CANINE UPPERTENDOM.
HOW THE DOG OF THE PERIOD GETS
HIS SHAMPOO AND BATH.

Mans Four-Footed Friends Fare Better
In New York Than In ANY Other City
on the Globe-Bathing, Grooming and
Clipping.
The fact has often been recognized by
tourists that New York is fast becoming
O modern Capua. All the luXuries OF the
south and east are found within its linn
its; one can battle more agreeably than
In Turkey, eat as daintily as in Paris,
dress as well as In Vienna, and within
hundred miles of the metropolis, have in
the season as good sleighing as one can
get in the outskirts of St. Petersburg.
But 1t is less generally known that even
mans four-footed friends fare better here
than anywhere else on the face of the
globe. The general treatment of his
horse is far more kindly than in the Old
World; except the stables of royalty,
there are none that can be compared with
those of several American millionaires,
and now the dog is coming to the front
and advancing claims to comfort and
superfiuities that would make all but dog
owners smile. The high toned CANNES
of the metropolis do not yet possess
Hammam of their own, but this Will
come in time They have, however, a
bathing place specially devoted to them,
and for the aristocratic poodles and col
lies that shun the contact of the dogs
that have no ancestors there are skilled
employees who call upon apprehension and
| look after residents weekly or fort
nightly, as master or mistress may elect.
Beyond sign that dogs are washed and
groomed at small expense, there is moth
| ing In the external character of the place
where the operations referred to are car
ried on to indicate its purposes. 1t Is
situated, however, in the direct vicinity
of the uptown theatres. and the crowds
that pass it daily have long ago become

The opportunities for ladies to find employment
that's both suitable and remunerative are IL
mited; their pay is usually poor as compared with
the salaries paid to men in same lines of occupa-
ton. But there are some very noted exceptions;
the drama, music and the Platform Of
fer equal advantages to men and women; and there
is one occupation n which women are generally
more successful than men, and that is in the ma
nagement OF special agencies By special agen-
eies we mean, they are given the exclusive con-
troll of the sale of special articles that can not
be bought at the stores and if the articles have
merit, and are in demand, they are sure source
OF profit to the special agent if properly handled.
In this line the Cincinnati Suspender Company
are offering inducements to ladies that we think
