 The old nursery story of Beauty and the Beast has just been revived by the fashionable beauties of Paris in way calculated to accentuate their charms. They are surrounding themselves with the ugliest madservants imaginable. Their constant companions are the most hideous pets imaginable. One celebrated beauty. Mile. Manon Loti, has engaged a dwarf who is described as having "a tremendous head, a malevolent express sion, and hardly any legs" and Mile. Loti takes him out walking with her every afternoon in order that his very ugliness will emphasize her own beauty all the more. Mile. Mistinguette, the dancer, has engaged as maid a Hindu woman with ringed ears and face which is by no means attractive. Other beauties are selecting equally unattrac- tive foils. and the fashion is said to be rapidlY spreading.
