IMAGINARY TALKS IN FRANCE Attitude of Rich Americans Toward French People le Said to Be Thue Revealed. Oil Dlaa report* an Imaginary con versation at the Deauville Casino, the participants being William K. Vander bilt. Prank Gould. Clarence H. Mac key and James Gordon Bennett, says the Cincinnati Commercial Tribune. "What attracts me to France," says one, "Is the charm and ease of life the traveler finds here, which, how ever, Is not at all real French life. Do yon suppose all French people pass their time as we do during our visits, dining amid flowers and black coats?" "Certainly not,** replied the second, "French life, except at the gay re sorts. Is moat quiet and well regulated —even economical. Tbw Wench know bow to live at home, and very pru dently when It Is necessary, but they know bow to live outside of home amid elegance and gayety when they chooee." •Then the real Frenchman Is not here In Deauville?" comments the third member of the party. "If only Frenchmen, such as we see here exleted." said the fourth, "there would be no more France. This same Frenchman whom you see favored by fortune will go home In the evening, quietly put on his slippers and dine on a round steak and a bottle of min eral water. The Frenchman knows how to enjoy life without going to extremes. I remember many restau rants la foreign countries where Rue elans, Englishmen and Germans Ig nore the art of hearing themselves with grace and neatness. Not so with the Wench. Amused, gay and frivo lous at times In appearance, they nev er lose their gracious smile and air of distinction. Whether at a luxurious place like this or on the boulevard during a popular fete the Frenchman always preserves his good humor, for ho knows how to live." Gil Bias leaves the quartet, saying. "Guess which part of the conversation belongs to each?" and Incidentally re marks that the expressions represent the combined wisdom of 93.000.000,- 000. Qualities of a Lady. One of the first qualtles of a lady Is a low voice. Not a whispering voice, one must speak loudly enough to be undentood. One reason why some people have to talk loudly In order to make themselves understood la that they do not articulate plainly. Pro nounoe your words clearly and careful ly. round out each syllable and even though you speak in a low voice you will be understood. Do 'not talk too rapidly. A lady never gives the ap pearance of being hurried, and be cause she Is leisurely the cultured woman never forgets the little courte sies which she owes to others. The courtesies are shown In n very qntet. unassuming manner, for the lady never cares to attract attention to her own actions. Neatness of dress Is one of the hall marks of the lady. The girl who wears fashionable top clothes and torn, untidy underclothes need not expect to earn the title of lady. The refined girl keeps her per son and her possessions nest, no mat ter If they are not seen by another person beside herself. Bhc always dresses In good taste. Both her dress and hsr manner are quiet and re served In public.—Exchange. Laws Govern Austrian Service A new law for lower Austria, con taining various regulations concerning servants, has gone Into force, replac ing one over a century old. The first provision of the new law decrees that servants must no longer be called "servants," but "employes." The em ployer must feed the servant proper ly, and the servant la forbidden tc chatter or gossip to other servants about the private affairs of the family. It Is not stated how this provision shall be enforced. Girls are legally entitled to go out for seven hours once n fortnight. The nT*tress of the house Is no longer forced to write a "character" of "truthful, honest and Industrious" In the "book" of s dismis sal servant In the past failure tc do this meant possible proceeding! for libel. The mistress may now leav# "character*’ blank. New Potato Disease. A serious canker disease Is reported to have developed in the potato crop of Great Britain and Continental Eu rope, which Is not only affecting the farmlands on which potatoes are grown, but Is also decidedly Injurious to the health of the consumers of af fected potatoes. The disease Is char solarised by nobnlnr excrescences, which are often larger than the po tato Itself. Bolling does not destroy the Injurious properties. It Is known that n potato canker has found Its way Into Newfoundland with potatoes Imported from Europe, but no such disease baa yet appeared In Canada, nor, eo far as known. In the United States. Woman’s Misdirected Talents. Ex-Chlef of Police Byrnes, the fa mous New York detective, says that he "never knew a better man" than Miss Ellen E. R. Peck, which, trans lated from the police vernacular, sig nifies that In all his varied experience he never had to do with a more skil ful swindler than the woman, now in her elghty-eecond year, whose latest sentence of ten years Imprisonment was been commuted by Governor Dlx. She would probably have made a first class "captain of Industry" If her tal ents had been so directed. DECEMBER 9, 1912. T®CRYSTAL Where Everybody Goes M VAUDEVILLE * MONDAY.
