PARIS TOO FRIVOLOUS.
ARCHBISHOP'S DENUNCIATION.
Tho Archbishop of Paris, Cardinal Ametto, makes a powerful protest against the frivolity and pleasure-seeking habits of Parisians at " a period when the pall of war has hardly been lifted." Ha especially deprecates the departure from sobriety in dress at religious services, and particularly at marriages, and bitterly condemns those who " deliver themselves with abandon to all pleasures, despite the Buffering and mourning causod by the war." The Archbishop also denounces vigorously those " dances of foreign importation which so violate good taato ana modesty that no Christian man or woman can' conscientiously indulge in them."
