Turning to the European working class
In Iunisia, the best part of which Is Italian

lcally and send all their spare cash home

the Italian mason, who may earn 8h francs
per day. He nourishes bodily on macaroni

day. putting by the 8 francs profit on his

The employers of labor engage the Cheap

Then we come to the administrative or
numberless administrations. Without doubt
they do give no end of work in making
commerce as difficult as possible with their
restrictions and formalities in the way of
all new enterprise. The mistake is made
by substituting such big undertakings az
railways. mail boat service, etc., by guar
anteeing their profits at a certain figure.
The result is that these subsidized under
takings realize that the more they gain the
less subsidy they receive and consequently
they are content to do just what they have
undertaken to do for the subsidy and give
themselves the least possible "ennui' with

STRANGE TRADES IN PARIS.
Dog Barber Flourishes in His Stand on
the Banks of the Seine.

From the Golden Penny.
It Is astonishing with what zeal every
means of earning an honest penny Is piled
in Paris. No city in the world has so many
queer little trades by which those practic-
ing them scrape together enough sous to
make living. The king Of this class is, Of
course the ragpicker. He starts out before
the dawn armed with a lantern and long
hooked piece of iron, and explores the rub
bsh boxes placed outside every door In the
capital before the municipal carts come to
carry off their contents. Then there is the
man who goes around with the spiked stick
picking up the cigar and cigarette stumps
which lie round the Paris cafes. There are
men. too. who search the streets for fallen
money, and who generally find enough to
keep them from starvation.
One of the most Characteristic OF these
strange tradesmen is the dog barber The
favorite dog of the Partisan is the French
poodle, or "mouton, he is popularity
called 1t is chiefly for his benefit that the
dog barber exists. His headquarters are
body can be found at all times, though In
the summer some go about the city carry
ing on their occupation from house to
house. In the hot days one continually
de chiensl" and meets the familiar figure
of the dog barber. with his box of instru-
ments slung over his shoulder. Many of
them have their regular customers. whose
houses they visit at stated intervals to
make the toilet of these privileged poodles
for the Paris mouton is the "spoilt child
among dogs. He is clipped brushed,
combed. perfumed and generally has his
"top-knot' fastened with a pink or blue
ribbon. Some even wear gold or silver
bracelets round one paw.
The result has been the development Of
the dog barber artist. He clips and
shaves his customers dogs In most elabo-
rate fashion Some are left with shaggy
names. with tuft at the end Of their tall,
to initiate a lion. Others, again. are clip
ped in strips. making them look like black
zebras. and others have their faces clipped,
and nothing but pair Of fierce mustache
left, with fluffy bracelets Of hair round
each foot. At any time Of the day, as long
as daylight lasts. the dog barber will be
found at work on the Seine embankment
Seated on campstool, and generally sur
rounded by an admiring crowd. he clips
and shaves according to the directions
given him by the owner. The banks Of the
Seine have been selected for his operation
because the river is handy to battle the
animal after he has been clipped and
combed.

Where the Fines Go.

Chief Clerk Stone of the second assistant
postmaster generals Office said today that
the fines imposed against railway mail en-
ployes reverted to the fund appropriated
by Congress for paying the salaries of
such employees.
Congress appropriates 80 much money
each year for the payment Of the salaries
Of railway mail Clerks Mr.. Stone explain
ed when 1t becomes necessary to impose
a fine against clerk he gets his salary
minus the amount of the fine, which re-
mains In the appropria ton fund, just the
same as If the whole amount of the ap-
preparation were not needed"
The total fines collected for the fiscal
year 1902 amounted to $3.50. For the fiscal
year 1901 they amounted to 1901, while
for the fiscal year 1900 3,32S was collected.
A proposition has been made to set aside
the fines thus collected as a beneficiary

in railway accidents while performing their
duties. but noting Tangible in that direction
