WASHERS HERE AND IN PAIRS.
The Attitude OF the French Woman and
the New York Girl Quite Different.

New York woman who spends part of
each year in Paris says that the French
woman and the American have very diff
ferent ideas on the matter of street flirta-
ton.
The average French woman upon finding
that she is followed by some dler will be
troubled about it and take herself to task
for having looked about too much or worn
too noticeable garments. She considers
that the blame rests upon her, whereas
the American woman or girl adopts the
opposite view.
The American woman who finds herself
observed or followed is no whit disturbed
and sometimes even ventures to give the
offender a lesson. She will slacken her
pace, begin to survey things in the windows
and otherwise behave so as to beguile the
person into thinking she is in for lark
Then, when. believing himself encouraged
the masher speaks to the fair loiterer, she
fixes him with such look of scorn and
disdainfu propriety that he sinks Off more
or less disconnected and the girl goes home
congratulating herself that she has admin
istered punishment that cut deep.
The American girl. however discreet she
may be at home, takes chances in Paris
merely for the fun of the thing that the
native women who know their country
men would never dream of venturing.
She apparently delights in exciting admira-
tion and attention in the shops and in pub
lilo conveyances, quite assured that her
natural self-possession will bring her
through any uncomfortable incidents that
may arise
