G'tmaz:s shlow their dislke of the Fteuchz riitairy men. The correspondent walked into a eigar store the other day, while a French ollicer was attempting to make the woman in charge understand the brand of cigarettes he wantked. She see:-ed absolutely at a loss to under stand him when the correspondent translated the otlicer's request in Eng lish. After the officer had departed she told the correspondent in -purest French: "I understood him the first time but I would not give himI the sat isfaction." Many shopkeepers have forsaken good sales by the same reluc tance to speak French. Few women in Dusseldorf, flubhort or Duisburg will be seen in the com Iany of a uniformed French soldier or officer in the streets. The few wio transgress the unwritten law arc promptly catalogued at the German city ieadat orters and are marked for reprisals. In some Cases the diliculty is avoided by the occupziyilg swain adopting civilian clothes, Which seems to be satisfactory all arounzid. In thie 'wizne cellars of lie iost fashi onable restaurants of Diusselzorf, there is a corner called "the occupa tion corner." There are diosited all the 'bottles of w ines which have been refuzsed by the German eistomers as having soured owing to defectlive corks. When a party of Frencl oli cers puts in an appearance the-y are alw-ys served with two or tzree bot ties of the special wine wliclz they Srbm~ t rly reject, as a Frenchman's taste for wine is infallible, but 1)y the time a real good bottle of wizze is reached "tlhe 'French cannot taste tize good of it'' as one leadwaiter put it. The oentrance of a party of "ien chi ollicers in a beer garden causes the temiperattire to descend to the f'reez ing point. and stirrounding tables to be vacated as promptly as they were by llelgials inl their cafes wlen German ollicers came march ling in. Overt in sults are avoided as carefully as they were in 'Ielgiitim but acts in Contra Veitioni with the decrees of the occt 'l)yilng forces a re treated by the "renlch as thoy were 'by the Gerinans in '3elgium. Fines are imposed in ma rks. The Belgians and the French sif fered oceipation of territory more stoically than the Gormans and witi less self pity. Tle owtier of the pa I latial home recently I'etlisitioned in tisseildorf for the general staff of General Degoutte, the French coim mander, wept bitter tears as lie de .parted from his nouse.
