    Monsieur J.W Alexander
              Dear Sir; 
                 I am an American from Boston Mass. having come to Paris to perfect myself in conversational French.
       I am very much interested in Aesthetics and would be much pleased to see something in the line of " Delsarte", if such a method exists in Paris.    I have not found anything of this nature in the city and a few days ago expressed my regret to a person.    After a few moments consideration he said; " If you consult Alexander, I believe he will direct you-if there is anything of the kind taught in Paris he certainly knows it."
