Cause of the Roman Empire.
' Tbe reason "why the Roman empire
succeeded tbe republic" was that
there was felt to be an urgent need
of a strong central power. For many
years the republic- bad been desolated,
and the cry of tbe wboie people was
for peace peace' at almost any price.
Now. peace could be secured, only by
tbe ascendancy of a single man. rul
ing with absolute and irresistible
sway. So the )eop!e acquiesced In tbe
change. Tbev even balled it with Joy,
A few patriots like Brutus and Cato
gave up in despair, but most men were
pleased with tbe revolution which

TACT; OF EUGENIE.
Ofplemacy of the French Empress as
a Question of Braes.
A curious instance of tbe diplomatic
methods of tbe ex-Empress Eugenie
ts worth recalling. ''
'.When Queen Victor!; Prince Albert
and tbe princess royal were about to
visit Napoleon III. - and tbe Empress
Eugenie It was feared at tbe French
court that tbe young princess royal
would not be dressed In a style fiat
would harmonize witb French taste.
Tbe question was now to beguile ber
royal parents into dressing the.caild
In a suitable manner.
, In this difficulty tbe empress bad a
really brilliant Idea. Tbe height and
other measurements of tbe , princess
royal were obtained and a doll of ex
actly tbe same size procured. Tbe dol
was provided witb a large and exquis
itely finished trousseau, and It was
then dispatched to Buckingham pal
ace as an imperial gift to tbe princess.
The expected happened. Queen Vic
toria, enchanted witb the doll's ward
robe, transferred most of tbe oater
garments to ber daughter for see dur
ing tbelr visit to the emperor and
empress. The result was that tss
princess appeared at ber best, and ev
