Domestic Life i'm Paris

Life in Paris means what it does in

writes Edward w. Box In The La

making people; their very natures
seek and crave enjoyment. But their
amusements are, therefore, not
low the ken of respecta bility
1t has been my pleasure to
see something of French domestic
life, and to hear more of it, from
sources away from prejudice. The
affection which exists between the
French father and his daughter is
beautiful and almost spiritual.
Home and family mean as much to
him as they do TO the resident of any
other city under the sun. The
French mother is not only cook par
excellence, but perfect type of
housekeeper. By nature, she is quick
and she accomplishes much more
with less exertion than does
her English sister. The ed
ucation of her children is as a
gospel to her. Her religious faith is
strong, and she instills ii into her
children at the domestic board and at
eventide. The parents live out of
doors, but it lie rare indeed, that you
see children on the streets OF Paris
after reasonable hours. They are
taught to find their chief amuselnents
in the home; and everything is done
