the place Of the mountain sheep in the
heart of the big game hunters OF
America. To come back from the

lea with proof that you have killed

consideration. There are three regions
in which the musk OK may be hunted.
These animals roam north and east of

buffalo running wild in the United
States to hunt. But one may go way
up in British North America and try
his luck there. A herd of bison, num-
bering, according to various accounts,
from rs to $50, inhabits the region
south Of and about opposite the cen

Many well-known hunters have tried
their skill in this region, but it is not
on record that white man ever

winter 1t is practically inaccessible,

He Is Not As Easily Suited In France as
He Is in America.
Men accustomed to American clothes
are great sufferers in France. 1t is
almost impossible in Paris to get a
proper string tie French collars are
ugly in shape-too low for American
ideas-and made of heavy linen.
French collar buttons are beneath con-
tempt; they are a joke, and it is an
unwise man who has less than three
before him when he starts to unite
his thick, badly fitting collar to his
worse-fitting shirt. French shirts are
invaribly too low in the neck and have
yards of superfluous cloth in them.
1t is impossible to buy in France a
negligee shirt with collar attached, al
though some of the English places will
make them at high price. Shoes are
clumsy and dear and the shape of the
French hat is not to be trusted. That
any of these things shall be all right.
one must go to the English tailors aI1
outf1tters who have established shops
In Paris. These places, while ney3r
the equal of the London places, are
much more expensive, says the New
York Tribune. On the whole, unless
man makes periodical visits to Lon
don, he is pretty badly off in Paris so
far as clothes are concerned. A wom-
an is worse off, for she can rarely find
the things she misses in the London
shops. In regard to all cotton things,
the Paris shops are huge failures. De-
cent sheets are SO pair in Paris and,
while elaborately trimmed and hand
made, underwear is cheaper there than
here. Goodfitting, nicely made gar
ments cannot be found for moderate
price. The woman of limited means
sisAs for the American shops when her
stock of underwear gets low. 1t is alb
solutely impossible for woman to
find decent linen collar In Paris or
a ready-made shirt waist that will pass
muster. She is, indeed, fortunate if
she can get anything of this sort prop
erly made to order at a high price.
French women wear cheap underwear
and clumsy shoes; the footgear that
a French woman shows when lifting
her skirt is astonishing. Stockings
are expensive and badly shaped, unless
one pays the equivalent of 70 cents a
pair. This refers only to cotton and
lisle-thread stockings, for silk stock
ings are included among the luxurious
articles that are cheap. On the whole,
it is cotton and woOlen goods that are
expensive in France. These articles
should be cheaper in England than
they are in America, and they are; but
they are SO poorly made as to be i'm
possible for American taste. In COM
bining comfort and style with modest
price, no European country equals
America.
