During the Revolution .it was used to house debtors and poli- tical prisoners—some quite famous: It became a woman's, prison in 1868, and at one time uc fewer than 7,822 women crowded in its tiny cells ;sad' stuffy dormitories. Within recent years it guarded, while awaiting trial; the beautiful Mme. Steinhell alleged to have been perpetrator of tis "studio crime"; Mme. Caillaux, wife of the former Premier, who slew Gaston Calmette in the office of Le Figaro, and the Anarchist girl, Germaine Berton, who shot dowfl. Marius Plat- eau lateau in the office •of Leon Daudet. . The principal defenders of the old prison have been the antiquarians; its principal enemies, the hygienists. Some months ago the latter succeed- ed in having the Ministry remove all the prisoners to other places of de- tention. Now M. Paul Fiearot, President of the Conseil General of the Seine Department, has submitted a proposal that the site- of St. Lazare should be used for a new boys' school. This the Government has ac- cepted, transferring the historic edi- fice to the Ministry of Education, which will immediately begin its de- molition.

Isere lives the apemane, a bird -eat- ing spider, attaining a length of• from eight to ten inches, whose poisonous bite is Sometimes fatal. It has a body resembling a ball of wool, with black hairs on its body and red ones on its legs. Its eyes are black and quick moving, -with a most malevolent ex- pression. It is very active and jumps about two feet at a .single bound. The pale Santo ant, a fire ant, which lives In hollow -stemmed trees, is com- mon here. A touch on this tree brings down a' shower of the ants, ;whose bites feet like red-hot coals, the sting lasting for hours. Other plagues are the zapntama, an almost Invisible insect which lies in the grass, bites the legs of men and causes an almost intolerable itehing; the guanaco, a bug which lives in the sand and whose bite is usually fatal; the baregui, a sand fly with a painful sting; sweat bees, which suck the perspiration from die hair; tlio ano-, pheles or malaria -carrying mosquito,, anti wasps, ticks and jiggers.

There the slaves and lower classes could go comfortably:throughout the year with- out protecting their feet, but the use of shoes for the upper classes develop- ed at an early date. The primary. consideration was to protect the bot- toms of the feet. Therefore,the san- dal was the first type of shoe to be invented. It was merely a flat piece of some protective .material bound loosely to the foot. Since wood was difficult to obtain both in ,the Nile and in the Tigris -Euphrates Valleye, sandals of crudely plaited straw and' reeds were first used. Later the Egyp- tians made sandals and light shoes of beautiful workmanship from leather and kid.. "In. Palestine the ancient Hebrews wore sandals made of a heavy piece of leather, of cloth, or, less frequently, of wood. A few of the latter, for rough use were shod with iron. Tia Greeks t 1 Romans, starting "with a simple tandal,.improved on it in time by adding edges which turned up along the thongs passed over the top of the foot and around the ankle, foreshadow- ing the closed shoe. The thongs be- came sheet's of leather and shoes and boots were born in Europe. "In central and northern Europe the cold winters made it necessary, of course, to cover the feet and legs when out-of-doors. In early times, crude sacks of stains were made. Grass was stuffed hi under the soles of the feet and around them td add warmth. Later, well -made boots of leather replaced this crude footwear. "Tho greatest single factor in the development of modern shoes was the iuventiou of shoe -making machinery. American inventors were first in this field and, as a result, the United States leads the world in shoe produc- tion. In 1026 more thaq 324000,000 pairs of boots and shoes were turned out by the factories of the United States.
