But France has ' goffered by ber
greatness in this respect. Wbea
tbaPru9sian force crossed tbe fron
tier io 1870, the floe military roads
were found more advantageous to
tbe invaders than tbe invaded. The
enemy profited by tbe master work
of tbeir aggressive neighbors. Tbe
roads afforded not only direct but
cxcolleut routes to tbe French cspi
tal. Tbe highways of France are
remarkable for their durability.
evenness and cleanliness. They are
swept and watered every day and
kept lu scrupulous order. Tbey are
immense garden paths, amid a mar
velous landscape .ot verdure-and
cultivation. '
Louis XIV.' bad several fine roads
made in the envirous of Paris for
his personal use and pleas-ire. They
were very wide, probably &. laid out
from simple' ostentation and paved
only -'in the. center for the royal
coaches. Shortly: after -the con
struction of these royal roads the
nation began to appreciate the adi
vantage of taved ways, aa the ose
