A Pleasant Way to Travel
The above Is tlm usual verdict of tho
traveler using the Missouri I'actlc Hall
way between the Paei lie Coast and tho
Kind, and we believe that the service
and accommodations given merit thin
statement. From Denver, Colorado
.Springs and Pueblo there aro two
through trains dally to Kansas City
and St. Louis, carrying Pullman's lat
est standard electric lighted sleeping
earn, chair ears and up-to-dato dining
cars. The sumo excellent service in
operated from Kansas City nnd Bt.

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

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

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

gardens of tho city have "put their

Arcntio ties Champs Hlysees have lit
their "mimic chandeliers." Flowers aro

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

CIHUOUS MACIUNK INVKNTHD IIV A FHKNCHMAN IN 1770.
l'hu tlrst automobile offers a wonderful contrast to thoso In use today.
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.

is the highest monument In tho world,
nearly twice as high as the Washington
