On our way, writes a French correspondent, we indulged ina brown study as to wiy Paris- jans have a reputation above every other.nation in matters of the tollet. It is not beeause they are extravagant in the cholce of materials, as 2 people. The Almericans and English, probably, spend twice as much in this res] . Therefore, we have come to the conclusion that the secret of their success lies in these two points: taste in selection and combination and extreme at- tention to those niceties other nations consider unimportant.
