. 1t revolts him to see people lose their
modesty witheat losing their Judgment. and
to see the people 1amiably wicked without
the excuse of tipsy heads: He himself could
wish to be rellicking. ''fin-de-siecle" and
even amiably wiclsed-but not with a cool
brain and deliberate purpose That would
sicken him. The thought makes him blush.
Here is the root Of the trouble. The diff
ference in disposition is perhaps even a
greater barrier than ignorance of conversa-
tional French. though that in itself would
be sufficient to shut him off from every
thing.
People seldom get drunk in Paris. Drunk
enness was never French vice. There is
no tendency to it in the blood or the en-
vironment, as with the Anglo-Saxon or the
German or the Swede; and the whole tenn
per of French life is against 1t. Do YOU
know it? These people will not spend the
money to get drunk! They would rather
buy useless trif1es, like jewelry!
That generosity or carelessness which In
America manifests itself in treating is
a virtue almost unknown to Parisians.
Again, the presence of women of some kind
is everywhere to be found; and this alone
would keep the French young man clear
headed. His personal vanity is safeguard

Jenny Lind Sang for Him.


Edward v. Eccles, the veteran musician.
who died within the past week at his home
on North 18th street, was fond of telling
this anecdote of his youth: at was about
the beginning of the war;" he Invariably
began. II was then clerk in a large
music publishing house on Chestnut street.
One day well-dressed, quiet little woman
entered the store and asked me to show her
some music Of a classical nature We
struck up quite a conversation, in the
course Of which I asked her If she had
heard the great Jenny Lind, who was then
the talk of the town. She laughed and
said: oh, yes; I have heard her Have
you? I told her that I hadn't had that
pleasure, and that I had very little pros
pect of hearing her, the price of admission
was so high. She laughed again, and then
she handed me song she had picked out,
and asked me to play the accompaniment
for her while she tried 1t. She sang so
beautifully that I played like one in a
dream. When she had finished she thank
ed me. and, with rare smile she said:
You cannot say now that you have never
heard Jenny Lindr She thanked me again,
and left me dumfounded."

Making Collins of Glass.

From the Chicago Inter Ocean.
The revival of the idea of making collins
from plate glass is attracting a good deal
of attention from local dealers I'm the two
articles which II is intended to bring to-
gether, namely, glass and collins Coffin
dealers, while they take the matter serious
ly enough to refrain from ridiculing II, I'M
dertake to point out its impracticabIl!ty.
The chief objection urged against collins
made of glass is that they would retain for
an indefinite period the decomposed ele-
ments of the body. This is an objection
which applies well to metallic collins
the use of which is required by law in
many cases of contagious diseases.
The chief advantages of collins made OF
glass, according to a prominent glass jobber
on Wabash avenue is their cheapness. A
good coffin could be made of glass, he said,
at one-fourth the cost of the low-grade
wood collins. The attempt made by an Ohio
concern about fifteen years ago to manu-
facture glass collins failed mainly because
of the relatively higher cost of glassmaking
as compared with the cost today. Glass is
now put to a large variety of uses. Among
other things il is made SO as 10 initiate
wood very closely, so that burial caskets
constructed in this way could be made to
have the general appearance of casketa
made of very costly woods.

Now there is another establishment along
these lines that, like the Char Noir, once
made money and a reputation and then
closed, now to revive again-the Mirliton.
Who has not heard of Aristide Bruant and
his noisy artistic den? 1t is a mean ard
aret'' in the neighborhood of the Moulin
Rouge. Bruant, its proprietor, the Brown

black verses and insult each newcomer as
he assigns him seat.
What has he gained by coming to the
Mirliton? He is impatient of these people,
who sit about and conduct themselves so
