'PARIS, THE INCOMPA._RABLE +“Learn One Thing: Every Day.” ' No. 4. NOTRE DAME Copyright, 1913, by The Assoclated Newspaper sflmol Inc. ‘When Julius Onglgr led his . con- quering Romans “into what is now France he ‘found a tribe called the Parisii, whose chief settlement Wwas upon an island in the Seine. It is re- corded that they were brave fight- ers and resfsted the invaders till the last man of them was killed. The island of the Parisii, the site of their ancient capital, is now called “La- Cite,” and was for centuries the prin- cipal part of the city of Paris and the home of the Roman emperors on their visits here. was not until 1796 that it was again opened. It was restored in 1845, Its facade is said to be one of the finest, as well -as the earliest, of its kind in existence, and - has served as the model of many other cathedrals. in Northern France. Among {ts notice- able features are . the weird: and grotesque carvings of animals and monsters that encircle the building high above the. third story. For more than seven hundred years Notre Dame has been a place of wor- ship.’ It has seen royal christenings, weddings, and coronations; it has seen dynasties come and go; and with the fall of the monarchy it suffered in common with the palaces at the hands of the mob. Today it is one of ‘the|Arbor show places of Paris, where the tra- ditions of centuries have been pre- served. 3 Every day a different human inter- est story will appear in the Pioneer. You can get a beautiful intaglio re- production of the above picture, with five others, equally attractive, 7x9% inches in size, with this week’s “Men- tor.” In “The Mentor” a well known . |authority -covers the subject of the It is on this island that the Cathed- ral of Notre Dame of Paris stands. It was founded in 1163 on the site of a former church that was built in the fourth century. The foundation stone of the present church was lald by Pope Alexander III., then a refugee in France, and the edifice was com- pleted in the thirteenth century. The original plans showed a tall and in- spiring building. For several reas- ons the cathedral does not impress one in that way. The towers, which ‘were to have been surmounted by lofty spires, have been left without them; and then, too, in all these centuries the surrounding ground has been gradually raised by the dust and refuse of ages until it is on a level with the floor of the cathedral. And still it is a beautiful and effec- tive fabric of pure Gothic design. The three deep entrances at the front are adorned with carvings, and the ironwork of the doors is fine. Above is beautiful rose window, whose stained glass throws a soft glow over a large part of the interior. At the time of the Resolution in 1793, Notre Dame was converted into a Temple of Reason. Its sculptures ‘were mutilated. The statue of the Virgin was replaced by that of Liber- ty. A Greek temple of philosophy was erected within the church, and a bal- let dancer represented the enthroned figure of Reason, receiving in state the worship of her votaries. The wild orgles that took place in the ancient edifice led to its being rlosed, and it Sunshine pictures and stories of the week.
