And this French Colonial Goctlon Is a marvel of beauty abd of charm for other nml higher reasons. superb reconstruction of a little known and mos’ gorgeous life and revelation of a colonial empire poscreaed by France of which the hulk of the people have llt’le or no adequate Idea Pranee >■ firrst f ulonlal Power. It la safe to say that the average man taken unawares without time to rabsa. k books or maps, would say that France as a colonising power was qulie out of fha reckoning We have got so used to talk French do adence especially as con trasted with Anglo-Saxon expansive en ergy. that It comes as a surprise to oe reminded that the French colonial em pire is the hneat fn the world after the English That is the cold fact, which statistics will prove to you If you be of that order of man to whom statistics prove digestible and nourishing And It Is a fact which takes on anew and living meaning and a very picturesque and fas cinating aspe-t when you Impress It on your mind not by turning over geog raphies or blue hooks, hut by vl|tln* the French colonial pavilions and there studying colonial Ilfs, almost at first band Algiers, French F'.udan, Senegal French Congo. French West Coast of Africa, the Ivory Coast. Dahomey, Tunt sle. Madagascar, Cnmbodge indo China, Guinea, French Oceana, Ouadelope. Mar tinique. New Caledonia taking some of the names so. at random, whae a wealth of romantic association they suggest' Examined In detail the handsome pavil ions. built and arranged each after the fashion of the country ihey represent, tell ■ story of on immense material wealth also. I* Is. of course, a wealth not yet fully developed sometimes scarcely as much as touched yet. hut looking round In the Trocadero palaces one sees that It ts a wealth certain, enormous, all but In exhaustible. It has sometimes been said that the French colonies In Africa con sist of Bird desert and virgin foress. the last utterly unfit to support a colonising population. Look at the big map that hangs In the Saudanese pavilion and you are reminded that the arid desert, fhe Saharuh, Is fhc center of Northern Africa, almost the strategic key to the whole continent, a perpetual barrier to, say the English, who would like well to paint the whole African map red and who s hundred years hence will certainly bitterly regret that this vast territory Is not under their dominion. For the despis ed virgin forest, there I* not a single pa vilion which does not help to convince the visitor that all that timber will one day prove of priceless value. In every exhibit. North Africa. F.ast Afrlra. West Africa, one sees superb specimens of native woods, stout nnd resisting (good for houses and ships on.l paving purposes! exquisite In grain er.d color, lending Itself admirably to artistic uses Some of the native wood-carving, which Is shown abundantly in every pavilion. Is of o most remarkable beauty of detail. The forest has creates! art'sta among Its dark skinned Inhabitants, the Dahomese, the Soudanese, the Congo and Ivory coast blacks. As time go* son and nil this na tive skill gets to work more and more regularly anil productively the gain will be very' great. In none of the pavilions does one see signs shot the African wood produce has l>een used for paper making but it Is certain that before many years the increasing demand will force manu foeturers to begin to tap the African for ests for their raw material. A AAenlth of I’rndncts. And one learns In the course of an In spection of the dolontal exhibits that It ts not by any means only sand and forest that the French have acquired Their poeeesslnna yield a thousand products of the greatest commercial value. There Is Ivory, great toeka of which arranged In fantastic patterns g.eam at the il<x>rs of all the African sections lieft natives .Working with primitive lords fa'hon th 1 r.* bef ur your eyes the daintiest Ivory trl flea and monumental cups ami howls an I vases.

If you irs not proof against their earnest eloquence In all the African pa vilion*. too. one sees grains of all kinds, wheat ami mall*, and rice, and countless strong waters made out of them The savage mind, by the way. despite our Ideas ahout Its primitive Innocence-. seems to have needed no Influences from civilisa tion to teach It how to go# multlfarkius ly Intoxicated In queer bottles, and cases of at range fashions, there are shown prob nbaly some fifty different kind! of flerv liquor mad" from the various useful grains lavishly growing on these rich vir gin soli* Scarcely n colony either that docs not show coltec.

And so it Is all around; sugar and tobacco and silk and cotton are shown everywhere In the Troondero :ml ace*, proofs of the extraordinary fertility and potential wealth of the Nt-w French co lonial empire.
