If under the French constitution
there is no provision permitting the
president of the republic to be useful.
ample opportunity is afforded him to be
ornamental. The treasury places at
the disposal of the pref ident yearly
allowance of $3.50, 1000 all told, and he
lives in the palace of the Elysee. Be
sides. he is entitled to get his vegeta bles
and flowers from the palace gardens Of
Versailles and Fontainebleau, and to
ride and hunt in the royal forests. The
details of the presidents daily life are
dictated by an official body known as lie
protocol. 1t is the gentlemen of lie
protocol, presided over by a sort of Off
cial Ward McAllister, who say when
the president shall wear a frock and
when a dress coat. when he shall don
the grand Gordon of the Legion of
Honor, and when the simple rosette,
when and where he shall attend the
theater. to whom he shall extend his
hand and to whom he shall merely nod
and the number of kisses he shall be
stow upon visiting royalty. They Sc
lect. of course. his guests at dinner, and
the menu as well, and it is by recent
decree of theirs that in the presence OF
the president no one shall speak until
spoken to. ~

on the old stones marking their graves,
dating back to 1904 one reads the names
of Randolph, Herbert Poythress, Came

known. On some OF the slabs are CHS

Here are still to be seen the high,

Among the many interesting old tomb
stones here. the Oldest is that of Robert
