PARIS DRESSMAkERS.

There Are Enough of Them to Form
 Good Sized Town.
 Paris is the city where the dressmak- ing trade fourishes as it does in no other spot in the world. In 1850 the number of couturieres, as given in the Annuaire du Commerce, the commer- cial directory of those days, was only 158. There were besides CT shops for the sale of ready-made feminine appar- el, but there were none, as there are to-day. which sold lingerie or certain articles exclusively.
 In the Bottin (as the Paris direc- tory is familiarly known) of 1885 there are 1886 couturieres and 296 commer- cial houses for the sale of ready made garments, besides many establish ments which manufacture and sell jupons de desous or under-petticoats alone. The number of working dress makers in Paris is estimated at 6;,, ,,00O
 In all France, according to M. Georges Michel, the industry of manu- featuring the various articles of wom- ans dress is in the hands of S1 400 male and 43,648 female owners of shops or factories. These furnish employment to 700,e01 persons, of whom over 500,- 900 are women.
 In addition to these there are 925, 1855 persons who make their living from in dustries which are tributary to that of the manufacture of feminine appar- i el. The total value of the product of this labor from so many hands is esti- mated at s 50, O,OOO,OOO.

LlNcoLN'S WIDE SYMPATHY.
Treated All People Alike in . Courteous
 Manner.

Manner.
 Horace Greeley once said: I doubt whether man, woman or child, white or black, bound or free, virtuous or vi- cious, ever accosted or reached forth a hand to Abraham Lincoln and detect- cd in his countenance or manner any repugnance or shrinking from the prof fered contact, any assumption of supe- riority, or betrayal of disdain.'
 Frederick Douglas. the orator and patriot, is credited with saying: MT. Lincoln is the only white man with whom 1 have ever talked, or in whose presence I have ever been, who did not consciously or unconsciously betray to me that he recognized nay color
 George Bancroft, the historian, al- luding to this characteristic, which was never so conspicuously manifested as during the darker days of the war, beautifully illustrates it in these mem- orable words: As a child, in dark night, on rugged way, catching hold of the hand of it's father for guidance and support, Lincoln clung fast to the hand of the people and moved calmly through the gloom.'"

WHY ENGLAND IS GREAT.
Native Offers an Explanation-Britain'
 Naval Superiority.


 Naval Superiority.
 How was it that Ealf an island over which Queen Elizabeth ruled developed into the worldwide empire over which Queen Victoria reigns? First and fore most, says Blackwood's Magazine, it must be referred to the qualities of the race, their energy and adventurous spirit, their capacity to colonize, to rule subject races, and to administer their affairs. That race was sprung of sue cessive seafaring invoders of these is lands who were trained for generations in the arduous defense of these shores, and taught to achieve naval superior ity as necessity of their position.
 AS early as Edward III. the sover. eighty of the narrow seas was asserted, and conceded as {. 1-dUter of course by the people of the low countries. As centuries rolled on, the insularity of our position became more marked as our possessions, in Europe dwindled away. The drill sergeant, who is the artificer of German fortunes, has had no ascendency in these islands, whose preoccupations have rot risen from mil itary empires on their boundaries. Maya. superiority has been the guarantee of our shores, and at the same time the foundation of an empire which has grown up beyond the seas. The same qualities which achieved ordered liberty at home spread commerce, settlements and empires abroad.

Few Children Tn France.

Of all the peoples of Europe the French have the fewest children an1 the Irish the most. The average French family numbers 3.03 persons and the average Irish family 5.a In England the average is 4.s and in Germany it is Al. The Spanish and Russians closely approach the Irish in prolificness. Con- trasted with the French in Europe, the French in Canada are the most prolific race in Christendom.

Much Bean Porridee.

A family, residing in Lakeville, Conn.,, were visited by relatives residing some distance off. One of the visitors re- marked that there had been a great quantity of bean porridge made in his mothers family; enough said he, "to float 74-gun ship. Don't you think so, Uncle John ?''-appealing to one of his relatives. "Yes, yes" replied that uncle; land the ship could float 24 hours and not hit bear."

MYSTERIES Or THE LOUVRE.
Vague Stories of Imperial Crime Reach
 the Outside World.


 Everyone who has 'done" the Louvre will remember the low-pitched and somewhat gloomy halls in which are stored the treasures of Egypt. Beneath these lie yet more darkly mysterious vaults, inaccessible to the public, though approached by wide and hand some staircase, such as would lead one to imagine that it communicated with apartments of some importance. Yet one finds at the bottom nothing but broad passages disposed in the form of cross, and without any sign what ever of door or window.
 A recent examination, however, of the solid walls gives experts reason to believe that the masonry IS more recent than the rest of the structure in this, the oldest portion of the fortress pal ace. M. NaugneuN, {, "ell-known critic. believes that many of the bodies of victims killed in the revolution of 1890 were immured here, ard that the gov ernment was afraid to reveal the facts when the remains of their comrades were collected beneath the Colonne de Iuillet
 'On the other hand, Nj. Blondel, the architect of the building, and NJ. Nor mand, the secretary of the Society for Protecting Parisian Monuments, hold the opinion that these subterranean passages led 10 the oubliettes into which Catherine de Medic;s cast those who were uDfortII- ate enGurh to incur her hate or fear. A iudicicus explora. tion would clear up the matter, and settle, too, several doubtful points as to the foundations of Lescot's original citadel. Unfortunately, the annual grant does not provide for any such archaeological research, and it would be necessary to appeal for funds to the generosity of the chamber.-London Chronicle.

 Addition.

But, notwithstanding they are now in tn city itself, there are few lots for sale yet at prices corresponding with the "Sound Money Doctrine of President Cleveland and his cuckoos, which means that kind of dollar which will buy two dollars worth of property. These lots are near the new elec- tric car line which is now in operation. The lots are in the city and their occupants do not need to ride into town, but the presence of electric street cars is popular and adds market value to the property.
