there are five round cupolas of the
same form that one sees In all Mo

man are dust and ashes and the love

paced and meditated are only a gar
den now. Within sight of Sun Cilo-

an old cemetery, and Inside Ita walls
the remain of a Cistercian monastery
founded by the Kngllsh Archbishop

Plan to Regild Tomb
of F ranee' b Great Son
After 28 year, the dome of the
Invalldes, beneath which He the re
mains of Napoleon, In Paris, Is about
to be restored to Ita original beauty.
A thick coating of gilt leaf will be
placed upon It, at the expense of the
French treasury, and It la understood
that special provision In the budget
for next year will call for 0,000,000
franc for this purpose. The Inst
time the dome wli gilded wa for tbe
exposition of 1000 and It required
veritable army of workmen nearly six
month to complete the work. It Is
believed that with present-day meth
od and'apeclal materials It can be
completed In month. Tim first
golden coat was given to the struc
ture la 1714 and the treasurer rec
ords show total payments of 80,000
ecus d'or, with a supplementary
dally wine ration for each of the
workers. It wa not nntll a century
later, In 1813, that Napoleon I de
cided to spend 243,000 franc for s
new coating, snd this today Is the
most solid of all, those of ViTX, 1857
and 1900 having been too lightly ap
plied to withstand Parisian climatic
changes.
