Egypt. His parents, Milan, the eN
king, and Natalie, his queen, were
married in 1875, when Milan was
twenty-one years. of age and Natalie
only sixteen. She was very beautiful
in those days, and very charming, and
she won the hearts of all her kingdom.
Milan, the king, was not kind to hel
after little, and such trouble arose il
the kingdom that finally the king had
to resign the throne into the hands OF
his son and go away. He was really a
very bad man-cruel, selfish and dis
honorable, too. Queen Natalie was
separated from her son and not allowed
to remain in Servia, and nothing could
have been more distressing than the
family troubles of these royal people
Alexander mourning his mother and
trying to be happy without her in
Servia, where he had to play king by
himself. Some months ago the divorced
couple became reconciled, and then
commenced the conspiracy which ter
minated in the ousting of the Servian
regency and the assumption of auto
cratic power by the Juvenile ruler.
There is no doubt that ex-Queen Natalie
was at the bottom of the recent de,
ncuemcnt. and her permanent resi-
dence in belgrade; is now assured.

The Paradise of Bicyclists.

It is France, because France has the best roads of any country in the world. They were planned originally by the first Napoleon for military purposes, and the third Napoleon completed them. So perfect was the system as first laid out that few new roads are now neces- sary. All that is required is to keep in order those already built.
 It iS not so difficult to make good 1oad in France as in America for two reasons. One is that our hard freezing in winter upturns roadbed with much more violence than in the mild climate of France. The other is the cheapness of labor there. Then, too, farmers per sist here in using narrow tires to their wagons. In France all the heavy haul ing wagons and farm produce carts must have by law tires from 8 to 10 inches wide. Thus a heavy wagon helps to roll roadbcd and make it smooth in stead of cutting it into a rut.
 To build good road costs in France an average of $lO.OO0 mile. The an- nual repair of the highway afterward is no more than S7 per mile. This is be- cause the road was so perfectly built in the beginning and also because labor is cheap. On ordinary ground a stone coating is usually placed directly upon the road. In loose and washy soil it is customary to dig down and cover the roadbcd first with a depth of 10 to F inches of sand. gravel or rough stone. Above this is placed the coating of fine small. broken stone, which constitutes the mainstay of the track. No stone is allowed to go upon this upper layer that will not pass through a ring 3t inches in diameter. The top coating of broken stone Is inches thick. Upon it is sprinklcd a coating of clay or earth thick enough tu fill in the interstices of the stone. The whole is then rolled and crushed with heavy machine till the surface is as smooth as a floor. It i> not. however. perfectly level. There is slope for drainage of an inch to the yard toward the sides.
 Finally there is an official corps o1 workers who watch the highways con stautly and repair rut or wash in few hours after it is made The result i, that France attracts thousands of tour iSts through her rural regions every year who more than pay the cost of keeping up the roads. They are immense gar den paths" writes Consul Knowles O Bordeaux. No rubbish or litter is al lowed to remain upon them. They ar,
 kept as clean as is the carriage driv,
 leading to an American millionaire l country home.
