ON the stock Exchange.
Most of the French journals haye-a
sale dc depeches, where bulletins are
displayed and museum of relics Of the
paper is kept. French journalism is
much more personal ia regard to its lit
eraTy composition than that Of England
or America. A large proportion of the
articles arc signed with the names of
the writers, even when the work is
more or less of routine nature, such
as the sporting or law departments of
the paper. On the other hand. the own
ership of newspapers is less frequently
lodged i'll single hands than is the case
in America. Very many of the French
papers are owned by companies or asso-
Citations, while the stock of several of
the best known. such as The Figaro and
Petit Journal, is bought and sold daily
ON the Stock Exchange, the quotations
appearing as regularly as those of rail-
way shares or Government bonds.
The circulation of all but very few
of the Paris papers varies enormously,
according to the contents. II a paper

and drop again rs soon as the special

memoirs, its circulation went up five
fold, although the price of the paper
had been doubled in order to make hay

The French press is much more con-
centrated i'll the capital than that of
other European countries In Germany,
for instance, it is not the press of Berlin
that has the largest circulation or the
greatest influence. In this, as in many
other matters, however, the French
press only bears out the saying that
paris is France. '-Chautauquan.
