WHY WAGES DIFFER IN DIFFER.
ENT COUNTRIES.

In an explanation of the variations of
wages in different countries, Prof F. W.
Taussig, of Harvard, writes in the Octo-
ber Forum: The reason why wages are
very small in India and China, higher but
still slim in country like Germany, com
paratively high in England, and highest
of all in the United States. is to be found
in the varying productiveness of labor in
these countries Beyond doubt this is the
fundamental explanation of the differences
that prevail in the various parts of the
world in the money wages of laborers as
we'll as in the commodities which they buy
with the money, and which are their real
wages. The workman is paid more, but
be also produces more The product sells
for more than the product Of the same
labor elsewhere, and the employer is able
TO pay higher money wages. Not only Is
he able to do SO, but he must; for thou
sands of employers desire 20 engage in
business, and compete with each other for
labOrerS, and the result must be that wages
Will be high IN some proportion to thepro
ductlveneSS Of the labOrers"

Horse Meat in Paris.

Hippophagv seems to be progressing in
Paris. The first horse meat butchery was
opened in 1866 In 1867 2,l52 horses wcre
eaten by the Parisians; in 1874, 4,335S; in 1884,
10,3223 in 1886, Is, 10S. The siege Of Paris in-
troduced many ParisianS to horse meat, for
during that period no less than % 1000 hcrses
were killed and eaten. There ere now about
fifty butchers IN Paris who deal exclusively
in horse meat, and two slaughter houses, ono
at Pa-tin, the other at Viilejuas The butchers
buy horses that have met with an accident,
or horses that have been overworked, but arc
still in good health. For such horses thev
pay 10 to $50 francs. Hsyse tilet, piquc with
bacon and praised is more common in tho
third class restaurants of Paris than people
think Many tourist who has been dazzled
by The sp!endor and cheapness Of a Palais
Royal dinner has been unconsciously hip
pophagist, However, the greater part of the
horse flesh slaughtered in Paris and in Franco
in general is used for making saucisson, hard
sausage.
During the siege of Paris horse flesh was
sold as elephant flesh in the following cir
curlstanees: In December, 1870 the three
elephants of the Jardin d Acciimation were
sold to butcher OF the FauboUrg &c Honore
for $1,000 francs, ard the butcher ret&iled
