It doea not figure in tl 3 gni;'ebool and
ia not among tba pi act of interest tbat

ia of greater interest tban many of tbe
thiuge tbat come within tbia clasa.
This boose baa entrance at 85 Roe
Radaivill and at 18 Rnede Valoia. It ia
iu tbo quarter of tbe Palais Koyal that
palace now given up largely to res tan
ranta and cheap jewelry shop, and once
the residence of the most licentious of
French princee, tbo regent d 'Orleans.
Tbe qnarter is one of tbe most central
in Paris, and all Americans wbo bare
been in Paris know it, bat the house.
which is a few steps from tlx Palais
Koyal, tbe Roede Hivoli and tbe Louvre,
e?cnpt-e general attention bocnune it faces
on durk and narrow streets.
Each staircase begins on opposite sides
of the central sptaoe of the bouao and is
continued separate right np to the roof.
They aro in a graceful spiral form. Tbe
house is nine stones bigb, a very con
aiderabla height fur oun so old. As yon
lock np tbe wall yon can hardly realizo
that there is more than one stairway.
The result of this arrangement ia that
one stairway lakes you to tbe first floor
apartment on tbe right, the second floor
on the left, and so on. Tbe other stair
way takes yon to tho first floor on tbe
left, tbe si-cond floor on tbe right, and
on. ion mart bo very careful to
cbocse the right stairway wbon you are
going to an apartment, otherwise you
may mount as far aa tbe sixth floor and
find yourself on tbe wrong side of the
hoc?. It is joat as well then to go to
tbe top and come down by the other
stairway.
It is difficult to describe the puzzling
effiart of this contrivance on tboee wbo
1 it for tbe first time. No moro in
genious coutrivance for exciting pro
fanity and causing -confusion was ever
designed by architect. The beauty lies
in Ita simplicity, which gires it an ad
vantage over secret doors and such la
borious drii-ea.
