PARIS CHANGES FROM OTHER DAYS Now One Finds Conditions Much Difierent Washington, Aug. 20.—Americans ly have been reminded on authority that they will find many things that are different in Paris, and that it is the part of courtes; as well as common sense, to accept the Parisian ways of doing things when one is in Parie. There is no doubt about the dif- ference in many customs. Some- times the Parisian way seems most welcome, at other times it seem: strange, but in either event, one has | not far 'to look to find there is a | n back of every custom. ovel Meal Check Device At times the Parisian seems to | | ordinarily means that the taxi is ny Lave outdone his American friends in efficiency.

Each plate and cup bears a price mark—b0 centimes, one franc, and so forth— ind the refreshments are served in containers bearing the proper cost mark. If a second eup of chocolate is ordered, the empty cup will be set to one side, and another cup bearing the price mark served.
