Parisians say that their beloved city
is being ruined by the automobile fad.
which is ten times worse than the BIZ
cycling fever ever dared to be. Luck
lily there are not so many automobiles
as bicycles, for they are expensive.
The sights, sounds and smells resulting
from the carriages propelled by petro-
leum are driving people from the bou-
evards
Half an hour after an automobile
has passed traces of petroleum linger
in the air. The beauty of it is that
the drivers of the vehicle cannot smell
lit infiicts itself only on the passers-
by.
Some stunning toilets are to be seen
on the pretty women who have desert
ed their bicycles for the automobile.
Sometimes the carriages are uphol-
stored to match madame's favorite
gown-in gray or crimson broadcloth,
with parasol tops and soft cushions fer
dainty shoes. The fact that she has to
guide her carriage successfully before
a critical judge, who passes on her pro-
ficiency in the art before she can get
license to wheel wherever she will,
has no effect on madame's determina-
ton to join the merry throng on the
bouleyards.
