Fixed prices are more the rule in
France than formerly. Hotel accom-
modations are good anywhere-the
prices are reasonable. Even in Paris
which is an extensive city is fair
priced. You can; get good room fo:
$3.50 to $500 per day. A hair cut costs
80 cents as ut home. Car fare is
cheaper, subway is as good as in New
York, taxi fares are cheaper, Butter Is
high, fruit is higher, than at home. or
course for jewels and silks and fine
clothes there is no limit to the price.
The vaudeville shows in Paris are the
best in the world and are clean. The
variety shows are like our musical
comedies, not a place for modest peo-
pie or children. When it comes to
disrobing they leave nothing to the
Imagination. John w. McConnell.
