with gay awnings, innumerable little
chairs and tables and the refreshment
facilities of a high class cafe, makes a
good place for contemplative repose.
Running along the river beside it is,
first, the unique Horticultural Build
ing "a new style of architecture this,
peculiar and delightful), and, after it,
the proud pavilion of the Paris Munich
pality. Like the Congress Palace, this
latter building has it's own popularity.
The exposition authorities never have
had an hours control of it. Inside the
Pavilion of the City of Paris the NUM-
cipality reigns supreme. 1t exhibits
what it pleases and as it pleases. 1t is
an arrogant municipality, strong in its
own knowledge of its power and worth,
defiant even of the central government,
progressive" beyond even the pro-
gramme of progress, full of theories for
the welfare of mankind, and with the
ability to put several of them into prac-
tice. Indeed, this whole northern bank
strip, between the Alma Bridge and the
new Bridge of Alexander ILL.,, might
well be called "the Midway Plaisance of
the Learned" with peculiar delights in
store for sociologists, economists and
students of municipal affairs.
Exhibit of Water supply
Take, for example, the ordinary dry
subject of municipal water works. Not
to speak of the varied pumping appara-
tus displayed in the Palace of Mechan-
les, Electricity and Chateau d'Eau, on
the other side of the river, the Pavilion
of the City of Paris is itself a complete
water works museum. Here the whole
municipal system exposed in maps,
plans, reliefs and models. The sewer
system, which is unique in Paris by
reason of its immense extent, is mapped
out and explained. AS everybody
knows, there has been, ever since the
beginning of the city in the mists of
antiquity, an underground Paris, cut
out in the living stone through quar-
rying. The immensely of this under
ground city may be imagined when it
is stated that the celebrated Catacombs
occupy only one-four-hundredth part Of
the immense underground space, while
the wonderful sewers, through which
tourists make trips by boat and rail-
way, are nothing more than sections of
certain of the ansient quarries joined
together and extended. In the Pavil-
ion garden Ian ideally shady, fiowery
spot rise fair fountains, pouring out,
for the inspection of the visitor. the
varied waters Of the Seine, the Ourcq,
the Avre and the Yanne, as furnished

charities, technical, industrial and com
mercial schools-all may be looked up in
this corner of the exhibition. There are
congresses on every one of these sub
jects. Every one of them is illustrated
in the Pavilion of the City of Paris.
One of the most curious exhibits in this
municipal building is found in the room
devoted to the supervision of butchers
and meat sellers. 1t is not a pretty sub
ject, nor a pretty exhibit, but the health
of all of us depends upon it. You VIII see
a whole room full of horrible life-like cuts
of meat and sections of slain animals, in
all stages from health to rottenness from
disease. 1t is certainly The Complete
Meat Inspector" Let us pass IN.
Many Americans will be best pleased
with the city's Retrospective Exhibition.
There is not a painted scene or portrait
that is not eloquent of the proud city's
stormy past. THE Bust of Mirabeau,'
THE Bust of Lafayette" Portrait of
Dubarry," Portrait of David" and
'"Thiers on His Death Bed" sound like
the headings of so many chapters.
There are all kinds of relies, such as the
imperial cradle presented by the city of
Paris to the great Napoleon for the infant
King of Rome-"rAiglon.'. 1t was de-
signed by Prudhon. The place is full of
historical matter. THE Plan of the City
of Paris" ecuted in tapestry in 1910. ar
immense thing, taking up the side of a
room, is attracting the attention of Paris

ing in search of truth) the closing year
of the nineteenth century may witness
the first select Witenagemote Of the
Science of the World as Sir Michael
Foster SO elegantly puts it. The object
of the international Assembly is to
bring select Witenagemote member
ship within the reach of the hum
blest.
Incidentally it furnishes all kinds
of information. 1t promotes learned
excursions Il the worthier sights of
Paris and environs. 1t provides lee
lures. 1t organizes intelligent visits

It's American vice presidents, the
United States commissioner of edu-
cation, William t. Harris, LII. D., and
Prof. Robert Simpson Woodward, of
Columbia university, with the Amer
clan secretary, Robert Erskine Ely,
who has been so active in the cooper
alive movement, have organized an
office in New York. Timid people,
without heads for organizing travel,
unaccompanied danes and damsels de-
sirous of a semi-oficial chaperonage,
young college men whose parents or
protectors would have for them a kind
of corporal guide, philosopher and
friend, and the whole army of hobby
riders may find precious in
the International Assembly. OF course
the select Witenagemote of the Sci
ence of the World must not degen-
crate into an international kinder
garten, but between that and the high
fenced, jealous learned society con
ventions of the past there is all the
progress of triumphant democracy.

and festoons that were not working,
and engaged an artist to design some
allegorical reliefs. They clapped them
to the different facades, erected pyra-
midal 1agstands on the roofs four
corners and the trick was done.
Snobisme apart, there are reasons
why Americans may find relief and
comfort in and around the Palais des
Congress. Snobisme, in the modern
Paris iargon, refers to that hunger and
thirst after Correctness in learning,
literature, art and living, which, in its
eagerness to get there" adopts and
proclaims principles even before per-
fectly understanding them. 1t is hard
to imagine a Photographic snob, but
there are certainly hygienic snobs. The
Britisher, who after an hours acquain-
lance brags to you about his manning
bawth may be suspected Of snobisme.
While it goes without saying that the
snobs of, say, hypnotism, women's
work, anti-slavery, social science and
the history of religions will find in the
Palais des Congress precious facilities
for the blowing of their little horns,
there will still be room for honest
folk with sincere hobbies.
Even the ordinary visitor, without
the shadow of a special subject, may
find it advantageous to hang around
a -neighborhood so unusually fire.
