THE WORLD'S COSMOPOLIS,

Surprisingly Large Alien Elem ont fu the

Popalation of Vari-«.

Some surprising facts about the cos- mcopolitan character of the populatica o° Paris, especially the enoz:inous num- Ler of Germans in the city, have been learned by M, Bertiilon, the inventor ef the anthropometrical system oi iden- t:fying crimiaals. He tinds that scar- cely more than one-third of the inhab- itants of the gay city were born with- in the limits of its fortifications.

In St. Petersburg the native popula- tion does not aMount to more than °2 pe: cent. of the total number of innhabi- tants. In Berlin it reaches 41 per eont., in Vienna 45, while in London, which hitherto has been looked upon as one o* the greatest cosmepolitan cities of the. voorld, iféuot as the greatest, the number of ithabitants born in the capt- tal of Great Britain reaches 65 per cent. of the total population.

M. Lertillon learns that the majority of the inhabitants of Paris come from the departments in close proximity t» the capital. For foreigners, nowever, thc most interesting part of M. Bertil- lcn’s researches is that relating to the alen population of Paris. No large Eu- tcpean city contains so many foreign- ers, in London there are but 95,600 f@r- e'gners—that fs to say, about 22 per theusand; in

St. Petersburg thete are 2.600, or 24 per thousand; in Vienna, 34,060, or 22 per thousand; in Berlin, 13,000, or 11 per thousand. But on the bunks of the Seine there are 181,000 fereigners, or 75 per thousand.

What is looked upon as the great “discovery” of M. Bertiilon; is the number of Germans who of recent yeors have made Paris their home, whereas. in Berlin, there are but 397

French citizens. In Paris there are 26,- 862 Germans, without reckoning those who have, for some reason or other, failed to disclose their nationality. Af- te: the Germans, the most numerous among the foreigners are the Belgians, with 45,000: the Swiss, with 26,000; the Italians, with 21,000; the natives of Luxemburg, with 13,000; the English, with 13,000, and the Russians, with 9,- 0066 The number of naturalized for- eigners also shows a decided upward > ndency.

M. Bertillon lays particular stress on the fact that of all the foreigners in Paris only 8000 are able to live on their ir.come, or own land or property in France. Twenty thousand are heads of fi'ims, or shopkeepers, or have some business of their own; 16,000 are em- ployes; 57,000 are workingmen; 17,000 are servants, while the remainder are the wives and children of those who precede. ;

It is dificult ta explain why there are so many foreigners in Paris. The arnual insufficiency in the number of births in France is perhaps one of the rain causes. Forcigners come into the ceuntry to work, because unable to make a living at home. M. BPertillon thinks that.the presence of so many fcreigncrs on French soil is Hable at seme period or other to be a cause of much embarrassment to the Govern- ment, and fears lest it become a real danzer.

PUBBER-TIRED CABS.

The Londener Now Glides Over the

Streets Without a dar.

Dancing has bcen described as tiie yoetry of motion, and perhaps it was at the time the. description was pen- ned, but that wes some time ago. To- day the poetry of motion is found !n driving in a rubber-tired hansom er cover a weod-paved Londor street. For niles you glide along, scarcely scious that you are moving, until your ccurse is arrested by a biocking cf teams ne _r Hyde Park @ roer, No con- versation is ever interrupted by a drive in London. Indeed, if you want a few quiet words alone with a friend, the test way to get them is to take a cah. I don’t know how many harsom cabs there are in London, but I know there are at least 15,6445, for I saw that num- Ler on the back of one. So that- you are never at a loss for them,

London cabbies. as a rule, are very amiably disposed toward their “fares.” They may sometimes overcharge rou, but they do it with a deprecatory air that makes it impossible for you to re- fuse their demand. A London cabbie, whom I asked to take me a five-mile fistance one day, and surg«srtcd that I engage him by the hour, expostulated «ith me so convincingly that I at once ycelded to his superior wisdom,

“You won't gain nothing by engac- ing us by the hour,” said he. “When ve has our fares we loafs, but if you tike us by the mile we don’t waste n» time gettin’ there.’

I liked his candor, and there was s‘mething about the editorial “we” that divided the responsibility of what o:herwise might have been re-arded as a personal peculiarity, which was re- assuring.

In the polar regions seal oll is burted in the ground in bags of skin. Meat is heaped upon platforms built among trees, which are peeled of bark in or- der to keep bears from climbing. up them, Little sticks with sharp points upward are buried in the ice to dis- tract the attention of the tears from the provisions overhead. Another kind of storehouse is in the shape of a strong pen, the main supy orts of which are standing trees, with brush and tices piled on top to keep cut wild animals.

During the salmon-catching season in Arctic Alaska the heads of the fish are cut off and put into a hole in the ground. When they are half putrefied they are dug up and eaten, being es- teemed a great delicacy.—Pearson’s Weekly.

The Onietness of Death.

Rack in the seventies a report reach- ed army headquarters that the Indians in Idaho had swarmed down on a lit- tle village and murdered every inhabi- tant. A second lieutenant, who had just received his commission, was dis- patched to the scene to ascertain the authenticity of the rumor. A few hours after his arrival in the village he sent this dispatch to the commandad- ing officer: “Everybody is quiet here.” Whereupon the commanding officer re- plied: “Your report is unintellizible. We have it from responsible source that Indians have massacred every in- babitant.” The lieutenafit answered: "Report is correct. Everybody has Leen massacred, Every body.’’—The Argonaut. 3 ~o—— REAL MERIT is ine character-

CHRONIC HEADACHE. Tae change in ‘my Mother's condi-

tion marcellous. Scott's Sarsaparilia is a Boon.

Monrrear, August 29th, 1895. GENTLEMEN :--There ‘is such a change in my mother’s health that I cannot s1e- strain myself: from ee you. She sutfered for years. past with a chronic \j@adache, accompanied with a disordered stomach. She was weak and. irritable, and we thought she was going into a de- cline. For. three wecks she has been takinz a course of. Scott’s Sarsaparilla,

which was recommended to her by Mr, |

McGale, Druggist, Montreal. Her head- ache is now but a memory, her appetite is good, and she has gained five pounds in weight in twelve days, She is a different woman, and I feel that you, in God’s hands, have been the means of re- storing her to health. 1 shall always recommend Scott's Sarsaparilla to suffer- ers from head or digestive troubles. Thanking you again, I close. Yours sincerely, Hortense Gaviliere. . Scott’s Sarsaparilla is a concentrated extract, pleasant to the taste, and is taken in sma!'!l doses. It is the finest remedy ior disorders of the stomach and liver, palpitation, screiulous sores, ¢czema and skin diseases arising from impurities of the blood. It bu.’ds up the weak, the strong it maintains ia health. $1 of all druggists.
