HOUSEKEEPING IN PARIS.
The burdens Are Much Lighter In the Gay
Capital of France.

From the Home Journal.
The burdens Of the h~ouseheeper in
Paris, writes Lacy n. Hooper. are a good
deal lessened by the fac that so much of
the work Is done of the premises. There
Is no washing, nor baking, nor stair and
hall sweeping exacted Of your own SER
wants. For the first named, the services
of two washer-women are required, one
for the best and table linen and the other
FOR the family garments. Among the first
named articles figures a large lot of dish
cloths, for no French cook, no matter
how moderate her pretensions may he,
will consent to wash out even one of those
necessary adjuncts to her work. From
four to six dozen ''torchons'-as the
French dish-cloth, OF rather house-cloth.
Is termed,hgure among the most neces-
WI purchases OF u family going to house
keeping. These when soiled are thrown
n a large box, with n close fitting lid,
supplied Tor the purpose, to await the
weekly arrival OF the washer-woman.
The prejudice Of French servants
laundry work is invincible. I once knew
a housemaid who left the employ of a
family with whom she had lived for six
years because her mistress gave her some
silk stockings To wash. She performed
her task, and immediately gave warming:

diguant remark. In the same way, no
cook, however skilled, will consent 10
make bread or pastry. That is the
baker business, she argues, and IL Is
none Of hers. Yet she will turn you out
any amount OF dainty desserts. buildings,
creams and j%ellies, Charlotte Russo Or
pancakes or ~fritters, but never a loaf Of
bread or n good American pie.
One OF the trials OF the American house,
keeper IN Paris il the extent to which her
power Is subservient tai that of the cook.
That functionary must and will do
the marketing. She gets her per.
centage on every article she pur-
chases, and N called upon TO relinquish
these perquisites she will incontinently
take her departure. II she be honest, the
extra expense will be but trifiing, a sou
on every franc that she expends being the
recognized amount, but II she las made
up her mind To rob her employers the
prices Of all kinds OF marketing will be
found to increase with extraordinary RI
pidity.
One thing that tends to make living i'm
Paris very delightful is the fact that Mrs
Grundy" has never taken up her residence
there. h Is to ay, you can live rs you
