 A disquisition upon the student of Paris seems hardly necessary after all that has been written upon the subject, yet 1t is the English and American student of Paris of whom we know most. and he is not to be confounded with the French student. for the latter leads his own life among his own compatrfots and rarely makes friends with foreigners. He gem orally has a narrow contempt of them and their ability. and some jealousy of the money they are able to spend freely, yet he is pretty well satisfied with him. self so far as the true affections of the women of his country are concerned. Have they not confided in him that they hate the American who always makes love in a hurry as if he would say, Hasten and tell me that you love me, for tomorrow l must go back to york; and have they not whispered to his van ity that the English lover is a brute and a dolt?
 To the French student Paris is the eternal city of hope and ambition girt about by the hay blue dreams of youth Yet the French student himself in his attitude toward the world Is far less of a dreamer and more industrious than those of other lands. He is poorer, more economical and studious than the rest. He knows how to live in a ridiculousiy cheap fashion and can manage with lodg- ings that our young men would not con- slider.
 We often throw 1t at the French that they have no name for home or wife. but their word for mother encomna ssaa the Frenchmans domestic religion His mother Is always sacred in his eyes, and he comes as near as 1t is possible for a child to come in reciprocatlng and under standing the mothers love for her off, spring.

Sir Thomas Lipton has been accom- plishing smart things all his life. Who but a preternaturally enterprising young. ster entirely on his own account would have left school at years old and taken a job as errand boy to help home finances?

 Leaving the ship, he escaped the hotel runners at the quay side, and made for one of the boarding houses. He saw a friendly proprietor standing outside, and immediately entered into bargain with him. The proprietor, it was suggested. should give the boy free lodgings and board if he on his part brought to the house forty passengers from the ship. Young Thomas-then only sixteen-went back and canvassed his friends of the steerage with such success that he easily completed his part of the contract. During the first trip to, America he ac-

The Parisian coaehman knows his Paris as a Daughter of the American Revolu- tion knows her family tree, and he calls your attention to every beauty of land and sky as he takes you sightseeing
 Talk to the cabman about art and he can tell you of all the exhibitions the pictures in the Louvre and Luxembourg and the famous bronzes and marbles in parks and gardens. Nor is he the only humble art connoisseur in Paris The simplest workman, who needs no such knowledge in his business, knows quite as much.
 It was an humble plasterer who moved an American artist to change the back ground In one of his most famous pic- tures The workman came into the stu dlo to make some repairs when this painting, nude study of a woman with an Oriental background. was almost completed. The plasterer in his blue smock and trousers and big white hat, dusty with plaster and cobwebs, stood before the canvas critically. The artist was amused and asked: Pray, mon sieur, have you any criticism to make?'
 Yes, if you will pardon me- answered the workman; T might suggest that the nude you have painted is too pure for before 12 o'clock.

complished plucky act, which is prob ably scarcely known to American read ers He owned a good violin, which he had brought from Scotland with him, and which he loved beyond any other of his few possessions. His delight in music fostered an acquaintance with a store keeper at New Orleans and in his shop young Tom nearly every night played the old Scotch airs so dear to his heart. One evening when he was on his way there when he heard the fire bell and saw the people running in the street. Turning the corner he discovered to his horror that his friends shop was in flames. The violin was in the storel
 Tom dashed through the fire lines and reached the place The building was all in a blaze. but the door stood open.

 The only exception the French officer ever makes in favor of a marriage with out wealth is in his espousal of one of the little orphan maidens of the Convent of St. Denis, which is associated with the Military Academy of St. Cyr in the minds of all Frenchmen, just as a rose Is associated with sturdy garden hedge.

 The French priest is not particularly different from other men of his cloth save that in high-class French families he acts as a sort of male governess. The boys of the aristocracy are always tutored by priests, and these holy fa- thers accompany their charges every where, for boys of sixteen years old are never permitted to go out alone any more than their sisters. This is something that foreigners seldom seem to notice, but 1t is French custom to bring youths up in as much ignorance of the world as girls.

 Of the French husband the French wo- man Is best able to speak, but a number of American women who have married them seem to like them very much in deed. These women do not belong, it goes without saying, to the class of Americans who have bought little Frenehmen with large French titles. but they are women who have drifted natu- rally into French marriages to some kin ship or utilization with French people Such American wives of Frenchmen de- clare that the gentleman of France enters more into his wIfe's pleasures and ann bition than any other husband.
