Paris and Its Dressmakers.

Paris is the city where the dressmak-
ing trade fiourishes as 1t does in no other
spot in the world.
In 1850 the number of couturieres, as
given in the Annuaire du Commerce, the
commercial directory OF those days, was
only 15S. There were beside g. shops for
the sale of ready-made feminine apparel,
but there were none, as there are to-day,
which sold lingerie, or certain articles
exclusively.
In the "Bottin." as the Paris directory
is Familiarity known, of 1895, there are
1,636 couturieres and 296 commercial
housese for the sale of ready-made gar
ments, beside many establishments which
manufacture and sell ''jupons de desous."
or under-petticcats alone. The number
of working dressmakers in Paris Is esti-
mated at 5000.
In all France. according to NJ. Georges
Michel, the industry Of manufacturing
the various articles of womans dress is
in the hands of 81, 400 male and l43, 64s fe-
male owners of shops or factories. These
furnish employment to 700.S01 persons of
whom over half a million are women.
In addition to these there are e25 SIS per-
sons who make their living from indus
tries which are tributary to that of the
manufacture of feminine apparel. The to-
tai value of the product of this labor
from so many hands is estimated at 60

HUNGER AND CANNIBALISM.
The Horrible and Unnatural Appetite II
Stronger at Sea Than ON Land.

Inc Horrible and Unnatural Appetite Is
Stronger at Sea Than ON Land.
From Science for All.
Then again II comes to pass when
the moment of keenest agony is reach
ed, that the starving man begins to
eye his companion with the wolf-glare
OF beast of prey. His pangs become
paroxysmal. During their greatest in
tensity there springs up within him a
fierce impulse to STAY his neighbor that
he may feed on his flesh and slake his
thirst with his blood. This terrible
prompting to cannibalism, ii may be
noted, is, however, rare, save in cases
of famine from shipwreck
Although 1t is customary to regard II
as common feature of starv alton and
to make thrilling statements of the
frequency with which even mothers
will, under the goad of hunger, kill
and eat their children; and though
startling assertions to this effect have
been made by historians Of great
sieges, yet IL ought TO be said that as
general rule, well-authenticated
cases of cannibalism among civilized
people will be found to occur only at
sea. They are very rarely found on
land. And what is more curious still,
whenever famished, shipwrecked men
set foot on shore. no matter how desc
late and barren may be their rock of
refuge, they seem as II by magic at
once to Danish from their minds the
very idea of anthropophagy. or man
eating, and that, too, though they
might have been resignedly contem-
plating it as an imperative necessity a
few hours before.
In the case of Ensign Prenties of the
S4th regiment and his companions who
were wrecked on the barren island off
Cape Breton in $780, the difference be-
tween famine on shore and on sea is
curiously exemplified. Prenties records
that they were able to endure the most
fearful pangs of hunger without ever
so much as a thought of resorting to
cannibalism for relief. so long. how
ever, and only so long as they kept on
land. But when they took to their
boats-and II was not once merely that
they experienced this-in order to es-
cape from their rock-bound prison,
though they were not a whit worse off
for food than they were on land, yet
the moment they put to sea with one
accord they began to think of killing
and eating one of their number. On
the other hand, when they found their
attempt to escape futile and put back
to shore, whenever they landed, the
horrible idea of cannibalism seemed to
vanish
