A comical contretemps has just taken place in one of tlie provincial towns of France. < )vrr twenty years ago the w ife of a prominent citizen gave birth to a little girl who was christened Camille, and whose birth, according to French law, was duly registered at the mayor’s office. But as Camille is a name that is given to boys as well as to girls in France, the mayor made a mistake in entering the registration, and set down tho infant as Isiing a boy. Tim e passi’d on anil tho other day Mile. Camille— who was on tho point o f lieing married —received a notice to report “ himself” for m ilitary service. O wing to the over whelming red tajiei»iii o f French official matters, the |smr girl has had all the tronido in the world to prove that she is roally a young woman anil uot a man at all.
