FRENCH GO BACK TO CANDLES
Scarcity of Materials Used for Light ing Has Led to Revival of
 an Ancient Art

While the war has wrecked some in- duStries in France, it has at the same time created new ones and revived older crafts. An excellent and inter- estiug example of the latter is the art of eandlestiek making, which has taken on new lease of life Even in some of the big towns there are houses which are not supplied with gas. where before the war petroleum or spirit was used for lighting purposes. Now that the use of these is restricted closely. recourse has to be made to the old fashioned candle.
 his Is true ill the country especial " where candlesticks are in great de mand. and every one is buying them according to his means or fancy.
