The lack of children in France, after the teeming populations of English towns, is, in fact, quite remarkable. Whatever may be the political disadvantages of a falling birth-rate, the small family in France evidently makes fo r greater domestic pros­ perity and comfort, and a higher general standard of cleanliness among the people.

A visitor arriving unexpectedly at a a small English village inn can usually obtain little but bacon and eggs, and cookery "of the most primitive ;" but in La Manche the humblest hostelry can generally produce a first-rate omelette, with perhaps some fish, soup or salad, and well-cooked vegetables.
