One of the most famousof these charming al fresco rendezvous is, w^ithout doubt, the JARDIN DE PARIS. At the unique concert performances given at this renowned establish-ment there appear in rapid succession the brilliant artistes whohave won pre-eminence on the French Variety stage. A highlyefficient orchestra, a frequently varied programme, brimming overwith chic and vivacious items, thousands of multi-coloured lights, alfresco refreshment tables, and a general environment of brightnessand hilarity, together constitute an attraction of its kind that hasno parallel even in Paris, well provided as it is with dainty enter-tainment places.
