SAYS PARIS OF PAST GONE FOR TIME AT LEAST Writer Observes Underlying Change Defying Customs of Old. NIGHT LIFE THRIVING NEW YORK. Teb. I.—When by government edict an engineer pressed a button New Year's eve and flooded Paris for tbe first time since the war with her old pre-wefr electrical brilliance, the orchestras on the boulevards and the Montmartre fairly burst themselves trying to do Justice to the occasion and champagne corks popped as they had never popped since 1014, Taxis honking on the streets outside took up the retrain and students in the Latin quarter went singing in serpentines around the lampposts—just as they did before the war. At that moment Paris from the standpoint of surface appearance once more became the gay old city of tradition. But in the real sense, it was not the same Paris. It was anew Paris, going through many of the habitual gestures of the old. For the old Paris, as hundreds of thousands of American tourists and students knew it and loved it, Is gone—gone for a generation at least. The war changed the people who made Paris and not until these people are gone and another generation has taken their place can the old pleasure capital be herself. PHYSICAL REVERSION TO 1914 COMPLETE. Physically, Paris has completed her reversion to 1914. Menus are no longer stinted. The wine caves are full. The “guides of the night” are back on the Place de l’Opera with thair "most interesting show around the comer." The boulevards are fragrant with feminity. So far as the Cook's tourist knows it’s the same old city revived. But the “Old Timer” knows that the people he sees are dlfTerat from his cronies of 1914, and frequpently even a new type of Frenchman altogether. First, the H. C. of L. has lifted the price scale between 800 and 400 per cent. Parisians, who In 1914, could afford to dine with their ramilies In the case, no longer people the boulevard restaurants. Their places have been taken by newlyrich and foreigners with high exchange rates. Longchamps, where France’s elite used to display Its finest gowns, has *>eeu virtually boycotted by the real ar.scocracy. The only fashion show there is at the races now is kept up by, flashy “parvenues,” or women of easy fortune. The war worked a remarkable psychological change In the French people. It made them a nation of stoics. NEARNESS TO WAR CHANGED FRENCH. While the glamous of the crusade on foreign soil unlocked the emotions of the British end turned staid London luto one of the most demonstrative cities in the world, tbe long years of trench warfare, midst the mud of their own country, among the ruins of their own homes, developed in the Frenchman a dogged selfrestraint that he had never been thought capable of. Hundreds of thousands wept fn White Hall on Armistice day. Paris crowds looked on in almost expressionless silence es their unknown poilu was escorted to the Arc. Among the multitudes who deposited wreaths I do not remember seeing one shedding tears. This new mentality has seized the entire nation. It is reflected In all classes, for all were in the war. Behind the bright eyes that invite you ■o appealingly on the boulevards, often throbs a broken heart of a youthful widow or flJncee who lost her lOTer out there. A surprising number of the merrymakers in the really Latin rendezvous of Montmrtre wear mourning on their coatsleeves. Thug Paris could not, even if she weuld, be the old carefree effusive city of pre-war days—not for a generation, at least.

HE DARKENED HIS GRAY HAIR Tells How He Did It. Mr. J. A. McCrea. a well-known resident of California, who was called Daddy and Grandpa on account of his white hair, and who darkened It with a home-made mixture, recently made the following statement: “Any one can prepare a simple mixture at home that will darken gray hair, and make it soft and glossy. To a half pint of water add 1 ounce of bay rum, a small box of Barbo Compound and l* ounce of glycerine. “These ingredients can be bought at any drug store at very little cost. Apply to the hair twice a week until the desired shade is obtained. It does not color the scalp, is not sticky or greasy and does not rub off.” — Advertisement.
