How gutters were kept clean in Paris about 1901. Old woman sweeping in front of Miss Alice Green’s house, 39 Rue de Villajuste, corner of the Avenue du Bois de Boulogne. What looks like a fence at left is really a series of small barriers to keep people from riding their horses on the part of the Avenue reserved for walking. A person could go through easily but not a horse.
