Oie majority of French mlniatera of
itate have at some time or another
been imprisoned at Ste. Pelade. Soino
few yeari nsru 1 went to sue M. Paul
Lafan'tie. who was then conlint'd in
this prison under a sentenue of aii
nioutli H nJtd beeu (fuilty of some
revolutionary speech, or had written a
violent iii .ip ierartlole. The prison
bore the usual somber and threatening
aspect. There were sentluola pacing
up and down with bayonets fixed to
their guilt mid jailers with great
buDihi-i of keys. Afler passing a
long number of windows I was at
last Introduced into a large, lofty
room. The first object that attracted
my attention were a number of dolla,
tin soldiers, and other toy that lay
iIiym.-.I mi the floor. Then I noted a
very li. in. home carved ouk writing ta
ble with a conifortable arm chair. The
table was covered with booksand man
uscript-. On the wall close by were
numerous charts illustrating the flue-
luiiticm- in tne price or grain in differ
IBt countries. "Yes." remarked M.
Laargue, noticing my look of oston
WtmenL "lam studying the price of
bread-lntTs and ull the 100 lal problems
Involved in the corn trade. It is a very
Important subject, and I hope to treat
It in a series of articles." "Uutsurely,"
I rejoined, "the prison authorities do
not supply carved oak writing tables?"
At this remark M. Lafargue fairly
laughed. The prison furniture, he ex
plained, was of the most modest char
acter. A plain, but comfortable bed,
with spring mattress, the simplest of
tables, chairs and withstands. But,
then, if a person was not satisfied he
could always have bis furniture
brought to him from his own house,
mi I could thu,s continue his studies and
his work with considerable comfort.
At this moment sounds of laughter
were heard on the stairs, and two or
three persons came bouncing in the
room with loud exclamat'ns. These
were ntlier prisoners, all sentenced for
Mine political offense. They were
quite five to go into each other I rooms,
and made a merry time of it. But
this is not the only society
the prisoners enjoy. There is hardly
my restriction placed on the visits
they receive from the outside. M.
Lafargue hud his wife and children
to call on him every day, and it was
tils children's toys f noticed on the
floor Tims, in common wi'tli the other
political prisoners; ho was able to
elect what company, what books,
what furniture suited him best. In
respect to food, if the prison allowance
tu not to his taste, he could send out
dranj deHoaoy he might fancy. Then
there were prisoners, common law
Senders, who, as a reward for excep
tionally good behavior, were allowed
to go and offer their services to the
political prisoners, to help to clean

It is no novelty to find vegetarians
capable of long endurance of muscular
exertion. In India, wnere tne prevail
intr religion forbids the eating of flesh
food, it is a constant subject of wonder
and remark from all newly arrived
Enirliah or Americans what extra
ordinary strength and tenacity of mus
cle is shown by the runners and portors
there, who live on rice, and bul Little
even of that.
At High Kidge, near Stamford,
Conn., there is a wife who is the
mother of fourteen children, all living,
and none of them twins. All but two
live at home, and these two. catching
the scarlet fever, went home to be
nursed. They gave it to the other
dozen, and Ihe whole fourteen were
siclc at once, and medicine had to be
mliu 1 in pitchers ar-d bread pans.

If you go to a changer he will give
you live francs iu French money, or
four shillings in English for a dollar.
But in America you are not long in
discovering that you get for your dol
lar but the worth of a shilling in Kng-
lisii money, or a rranc in trench.
The flat that lets for 4,000 francs In
Paris, and the house thut 1 rented ut
200, or 4.000 shillings in lxndou.
would be charged f I.OOO in New York,
Boston or Chicago.
The simplest kind of dress, ono for
which a Parisian of modest tastes pays
100 franca, would cost an American
lady at least 100. A visiting dress
costing iOO francs in Paris would cost
)600 in New York. A bonnet that
would be charged 00 francs is worth
50. The rest to match.
