Comfortable Berths.
Wolves have long been extinct in France, yet there are a hundred lieutenants de la loureterie whose nominal duty it is to keep these animals under. Among the 'holders of this office are aristocrats, such as jthe Prince' d'Arenberg and the Marquis de Clermont Tonnorre, and millionaires -like the Qomte Greffulhe and Monsieur Paul Lebaudy. They draw no salary, but the State provides them with a showy uniform, the'buttons of which are adorned with wolves' heads. Tli© distinction, is keenly sought after, as tHie lieutenants de la louveterie have shooting Tiglits in all the State domains;* and thus enjoy some of the I best sp'ort in France.
