NEW RULES FOR THE GAME OF LIFE.

Mr. Harry J. Greenwall, the Daily Exprese correspondent in Paris writes:- Returning to this city after an absence of some months, I find it the same old Paris-with some exceptions. My collengus Beachcomber " referred the other day to the shortage of small change in faris. It is the bane of one's life.

Foolish people board them, just to see how many they can collect, and this, of course, adds to the soaroity, but undoubtedly there is an fillegal traffic in silver coinage and the French Government is very perturbed about it.

ALL CHANGE.

Stamps, very much the worso for wear, and books of tickets for the Underground, very stained and soiled (both the tickets and the Underground are rolled), are legal: tender, except in post offices. Although the clerks force stamps on one when giving "change." they refuse to accept them when one is buying anything or despatching a telegram. Bars, restaurants, and cafes have taken to issuing cardboard discs, with a value of from one to three francs, but as prices in all place bere men eat and drink are continually rising, these little bits of pasteboard soon depreciate in value. Besides, one loses them, and the stamps stick to the inside of one's pocket- book, and everything beeones uncomfort- able..

Taxicab fares have doubled since I was last in Paris, but the drivers are much less independent than they were.

HOUSE HUNTING.

During the five months that I was in Lohdon I thought I learned something about the house shortage. but it is only in its infancy in your country.

Of course, the price of every commodity is something fantastic. And yes people seem. contented and quite cheerful. There is a lot of paper money about, and the shops in the Rue de la Paix have no caNKO to complain of bad business. The race- courses round-Paris-are-pecked at every 24 meeting, and the betting hooths have never taken so much money as they are doing, this year.

Certainly one hears underground rom- blings of revolution, and to the very poor the sight of so much extravagance must be maddening, The Montmartre restaurants have to close at eleven, which is passing strange for Montmartre, which never went to hid before cock-crow, but still I hear that all the little boxes," they are called, do the most wonderful business.

EMPTY CHURCHES.

"In many places the church is nothing more nor less than as ecclesiastical refri- gerator: there is no sense of comradeship or brotherhood," says the Rev. H. G. Peile, Vicar of South Acton, and formeriy of Singapore, explaining why churches are empty He gives many other rea sons, including the following:

Church-going is no longer a social cus

The Church is terribly conventional and respectable.

The motto of the average church-goer is, As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be. It ought to be "For ward with the times."
