From hero It Is a step to tho Hank of France, nlth precious cellars stocked with dia monds and bullion carefully guarded. Then comes the garden of the Palais Iloynt. Where Is the splendor always arscchited with this romantic name? Here Is revealed a tragedy of departed g'ury. Theie Is u promenade beneath small shade trees; there Is n basin of u.itei which docs service as u foun tain; there ate one or two (lower beds. There are sculptures, too, and In the afternoon, when the band Is playing, the court takes on somewhat of a fes tive air. Hut by morning light, when nearly deserted, It Is dreary enough. Tho trinket shops around Its borders show cheap nnd tawdry wares. Tho ciifrs which ocriinv tlm Kwnuil flnnr nro good for their Inexpensive kind. Here m me entrance to me oiu vauucrino theater of the Palais Koyal. In tho garden are occasional bencho. It would bo Interesting to stay until noon when the little cannon placed behind tho statue of Hurydlce Is 11 red automatical ly by means of a burning glass. An essential element lu tho charm of Putin Is the abundance of flowers. Tho larger flower markets, at the Madeleine, lu tho Place do la Itepublhiuo and on the Quill aux Flours, nre supplemented by the flower kiosks scattered nt Inter vals along tho boulevards, by tho big baskets of blossoms which one neon car ried on the backs of men and women porters, by tho bouquet of flower girls, nnd the gorgeous window boxes which light up by day the Avenue do I'Ojicra, tiie Kuo Itoyulo, and the Hue do la Pa'x. Pnipilu's windows fairly flamo w'.th living color. The maples In tho gardens of tho city have "put their roni'i- on." Tho Hlncs wave their pur ple plumes. The ncaclnn are all out lu bloom, and tho chestnut trees along the Arcntio ties Champs Hlysees have lit their "mimic chandeliers." Flowers aro mi cheap that anybody can afford to buy then., nnd almost everybody docs. Many countries have contributed to the splendor of that palatial odlllce of art and pleasure, the Opera House. M.irblcs from Italy, from Spain, from Scotland and from Sweden embellish It, from Finland even, and from fur Alge ria. In front of It great bronze can delabra stand. Tho facade" la beautiful, and there are Interior glories of red nnd gold, of mirrors, starry ceilings, spark ling with rows of lights that look like strings of Jewels. Many tourists lunch nt tho restantant of the Klfel Tower. Tho view Is line nnd tho ascent easy, Tho visitor can walk tip tho 720 steps to tho second landing, but It cost as much as It does THE FIRST AUTOMOBILE.

Th's llrst motor was tho Invention of a Frenchman, N. J. Cuguot, In 1770, nnd were It not for the French Itevolutlou; widen turned men's minds nwny from this form of mechanics. Cuguot might have anticipated George Stephenson, tho father of the steam locomothe. Cuguot's machine consisted of a wooden chassis, with three wheels. Tho boiler, n kettlellko contrivance, was In front, nnd tho slnglo forward wheel was driven by two cylinders. Tho steering arrangement wns not unllko that of the present day, This curious machine still exists and Is now In ono of the museums of Paris. MODERN VENUS OF MILO.

Naturally, any woman would like to have tho grace, dignity and beauty typltled In this statue nnd no higher compliment can be paid to woman than to say she resembles the Venus of Mllo. And this Is the compliment paid to Lady Beatrice Pole-Cnrew, tho most beautiful woman lu KnglamL Lady Polet!arew U called "tho modern Venus of Mllo." ller beauty Is world-famous.

Tho upper half of tho way 1m j elevators of a French company. It is the highest monument In tho world, nearly twice as high as the Washington column nt our own capital, but little Is said about tho magnificent reaches of Its base. Underneath' It Is a good sized i:uk, with line trees In It and a lake. Wrsalllos seems stupid after Paris. Lmi'I houses In u deadly town, a heavy palace, and n garden most solemn threi gh tho evidences of Its frivolity. The show places of Versailles oppress by their artificiality. Horrible to And geography, geometry, astronomy work ed out laboriously In hedges, to see tree distorted out of all their beauty lu u degenerate effort at a new effect of opulent magulllccuee, and all of It ginrlng lu the noonday sun. This Ls tho Impression which Versailles makes, un til the tourist has visited the palace and is lost lu Imaging mentally all tho splendor of Its long ngo, tho formal cer emony of the rclgtw of Louis XIV. nnd XV, the courts of Malutciiou and Du barry, of Mario Antoinette and her friv olous ladles, who knew no better than to dauco and 'sing and play nt living while the people stnrved. Then tho cu riously elaborate surroundings seem more reasonable, more lu keeping.
