THE FRENCH PRESIDENT

M. Falheres will retire from the Presidency of the French Republic early next year, and he has already made his plans with regard to the future. M falheres has decided on installing himseli in an apartment of a house that ne owns on the Boulevarde Saint Germame, also situated on the "rive cauche." The flat which M. Fallieres is reserving for himself consists of a saloon a dining-room, a study, and three bedchambers—just the ordinary t suite—and he will content himself with a couple of servants, a cook and an Housemaid, as he seems to be' as averse from having a man to wait on him as was Victor Hugo, who could never tolerate a butler or a valet M Falheres, as may be added, has taken a very wise precaution. Since noisy neighbors! are the chief drawback to a -Fans flat, he has made the tenants who occupy the apartments immediately above and below the one which he has selected for himself promise, in their leases, that they will not keep any animals^ or play the piano from morning to night, or, for that matter, from night to moriing.
