Paint Lick Against Paris.

Colonel Henry Watterson's news
paper, the Louisville Courier-Jour-
nal. last summer selected 40 young
women representatives of the Blue
Grass state to go at it's expense on
tour of Europe. 1t is true these
ladies were chosen, not for their
beauty, but for their popularity as
determined by the ability to swell
the subscription lists of Marse
Henry's able paper. Nevertheless,
all Europe was advised to await
their coming as a demonstration o.
Kentucky's fairest womanhood.
Paris especially was on edge with
joyous expectation. "The Kentucky
peaches" the gay boulevardiers
called them-that is, before they
saw the actual exhibit. "The Ken
tucky lemons" they called them
later.
