AN EARTHLY PARADISE.

where Even the Wind Is Tempered 10 the
ShOrn Lamb.
Whatever may be the proportion Of philO-
sophie spectators and of conscientious oppo-
nents Of gaming TO invsterate gamblers and
cursory punsters who risk . few louis now
and again, ''Just for the fun Of the thing"
the fact remains that Monte Carlo has be-
come an earthly paradise, says the London
Standard; that the gardens, with their sub
tropical vegetation, are enchantingly beau
tfful: that the views from the terrace are
more than Neapolitan in their soft lowell
ness; and that the drive from Nice along
the Cornice road AND through Villefranche,
Beaulieu, Rochebrune and Monaco IS almost
unequaled in its bright picturesqueness.
The hotels Of Monte Carlo, 70 thoss who
know how to choose their domicile, are not
more expensive than those Of Nice; the res
ident doctors are skilled and moderate In
their terms; and, II the population be not
about the happiest to be found on the con-
tinent, the blame assuredly does not lie at
the door either Of the paternal Grimaldi or
the more than paternal Banque de Monaco.
The Monagasques pay no takes, are subject
TO no consumption, enjoy the advantages Of
excellent paving, lighting, drainage and
sanitation, and run no risk Of being injured
in pocket through the vicinity Of the Casino,
seeing that a paternal government does not
allow the natives OF the principality to play
at the tables. Health seekers again, are
arriving ct the conclusion that the climate
Of Monte Carlo 10 in winter warmer
and more staple than that Of Nice;
that the cut-throat 'mistrar' rarely
careers over the bay Of La Con-
damme; and that the little town is alto
gethere more sheltered than the great
blazing, windy, dusty, Mediterranean
watering place. Then, again, for persons
in really delicate health, the amenity OF
Mentone is easily accessibles and beyond
the Rivera in it's Italian section, opens up
whole chain of delightful winter resorts be-
tweenv entimiglia and Savona, which, twenty
years ago, were never heard Of in England.
San Reno, Bordighera, Alassio and
q score more pretty and genial sea-
side hamiets have now their regu-
lar complement OF wealthy patrons
from England and the States, and every
season spacious, elegant and clean hotels
and s'pensions' continue to spring up, SUE
