FKENCH WOMEN OF BUSINESS.

Fortunes Made by Some OF Them-Mes-
danes Bouclcault and Coqueli1.
The Frenchwoman, unlike her Eng
eish sister, has, as a Iule, very good
business education. In the common
schools, says the Chicago Herald,
she has been taught household book
keeping and has been given lessons
in purchasing and useful expenditure.
AS wife, she is expected generally
to help her husband in his business,
and sometimes she manages it entirely
for him. In the small stores she acts
as clerk for him and in the larger ones
she is an equal partner. The Bon
Marche was made famous by Nine.
Boucicault, who helped her husband
found and maintain the establishment,
and after his death she took entire
charge of it. Her system was one of SO
much kindness and consideration to-
ward her employees that they called
her ''the Lady of the Bon Marche,"
and looked upon her as almost saint.
She was very prosperous in the busi-
ness, and associated with herself as
stockholders the chiefs of the various
departments who had been faithful in
their service, that they might share in
the profits. Then she wished to in
clude as many of the other employees as
possible, SO she ceded part of her
shares to a common fund subject to
their purchase. In her will she left the
rest of her shares TO the stockholders.
She also gave one million dollars of her
own private fortune for pension fund
for those of the employees who from age
or illness were unable longer to work.
There are many other large establish
ments in Paris managed by women.
Nine. Coquelin, 1t is said, vests all her
husbands money for him nd many of
the wives of the artists manage the
selling and exhibition of their husbands
works, and attend to the collecting and
paying of debts, obtain orders and call
upon the newspaper men, doing all of
the necessary work to make their hus.
bands artistic efforts profitable.
