A FUNNY FBENOHMAN
Hla Project for Gotting Evon With
Porfidiouo Albion
Translated from Le Journal Paris
France
Lot it bo understood that I have
to my honorable correspondent tho
responsibility of the very lively ex
pressions which occasionally sparkle
in his interesting correspondence
Ed le Journal
Dear Sir
You who wore born in a 6oaport
in tho West you will understand
mo
Sons of Bretous a Breton myBolf
I imbibed when very young the uu
contradictable milk of the most reso
lute anglophobia and a long time
before I had the power of saying
papa and mama I growled out pigs of
English
I ought to add that since that
blessed era of tny infancy Perfidious
Albion has done nothing with a view
of winning my good graces
On the contrary
Let us not recall the sorrowful
history of Fachoda nor the more
recent incident of Mascate let us
not recall them but recall ourselves
Bah the English
We can at least worry them con
siderably and if we wished to avail
ourselves of tho opportunity means
are at hand which cannot fail us
Take tho Gulf stream for exam
pie
You aro aware that the Gulf
Stream is that current of hot waUr
which flows from the Gulf of Mexico
touches our Brittany and then goes
to warm over the old coasts of old
England Old England tailors for gentlemen-
What is there to prevent us after
it has discharged its services to us
from making this current again cold
andof lowering it to a temperature
of almost froezing point
The cold industry has to day ar
rived at such a point of practical
perfection that this operation would
bo childs play to our engineers
And then imagine the looks of the
English when one fine morning they
found that in place of the warm and
blessed gulf stream there had ar
rived a current of frozen water
Probably this swift change in
British heat would cool the bellicose
ardors of fat John Bull
Afterwards since we aro in train
to manufacture cold on so vast a
scale what would there bo to pro
vent us some day when tho English
had their ear warmers on from
firmly freezing the straits of
Dover and marchiug over one or two
army corps
You smile
WbyT
Do wo not remember that under
the first Empire French dragoons
gallopped over the ice and captured
at tho stroke of the sabre the whole
of tho Dutch fleet
If only for the fun of tho thing
we ought to try this Bcheme Dont
you agree with me
Accept etc etc
A True Breton
I ask for nothing better but it
must be understood that Sir Ed
ward Monson might say and not
without some grounds for it that
France takes au iuimioal attitude
towards his country

English Thirst
Tho quantity of alcoholic bever
ages consumod in England during
the year 1898 represented tho valuo
of 151480931 pounds sterling or
772404070
In liquidp this sum represents
41751755 gallons of spirits 35063
764 thirty six gallon casks of beer
16616615 gallons of wino aud 15
135000 gallons of cider
The mean cost a head for the entire
population including women and
children reached in 1898 316s or
518
From 1874 to 1878 it was 48s or
22 from 1879 to 1883 393 or 17-
25 from 1884 to 1888 38s or 1700
from 1S94 to 1898 316
And here it must be said that iu
England there exist more tliau 10
000 temperance bocioties who drink
water alone
Frankly before they attack Frauce
on the charge of alcoholic drinking
the English had better compare
