Even when winter wraps Paris in its mantle of nale, lavender-gray mist, the street-corner flower seiler relieve tke soft monoehrome with their bou- quets of flowers for sale. The brave- ly brilliant dots of color seem sym- bolic, for Paris itself is a sort of vast bouquet. No other large city in the world has so many public gardens and parks, and pBssibly no other city loves them mbre. Thus, when a milder day succeeded the mid-January freeze, the people of Paris flocked in tens of thousands to these gardens, and above all to the Bois de Boulogne. Encirel- ing the 'western end of the city like the greenery background of the bou- quet, the Bois is the favored haunt of Parisians, who on pleasant Sundays fill every ome of its 2115 acres almost to overflowing, picnicking under its magnificent trees; promenading along its broad walks or riding thtough its miles of bridle paths.

Britain who hate the task of peeling their own potatoes may now have it done for them, A firm of potato-growers has recently started an experimental service, which delivers potatoes, ready peeled, in a glass jar containing cold water, to homes where labour-saving is wel- comed. This is a service which might be ex- tended to other vegetables--onions, peeled and sliced, are an example which comes to mind at once--and which enterprising greengrocers might find profitable, so long as prides were kept low. There is one objection, however, which must not be overlooked.
