Extravngant Americans.

1t is passing strange to the French
why this, the year of great depression
in America. isn't felt more by the
Americans who are travelling. Ii is al
ways the Americans, who travel first
class; they who stop at the tirst-class
hotels, and ii is for them that the shop
keepers deck their windows u in their
rarest treasures.
And o that the season of.American
shopping is nearly over, the shopkeep-
ers declare that they have had more
than a usually successful year.
AS for the couturieres, they have
their W private opinion of the de-
pressed state Of finances in America,
and it would take a great deal TO con
vince them that Americans hadn't more
money than they knew what to do
