A FEMALE VETERAN. The oldest canti-
Mere OF the French army has just died at
Issoudun, aged ninety-four years. Therese
J0urdan, born at Besancon, in 1868, was
married in 1888 to Jean Pairu, who after.
wards became sergeant of the Sxty-ninth
brigade. She was with her husband
through Bonaparte's Italian campaigns Of
1867. After that she went to Egypt,
and was present Mt the landing Of the ar
my before Alexandria /; she was at the
battle of the Pyramids, and at Kleber's
victory near the ruins Of HeIiopolis. AZ
ter her return from the east she accompa-
MED the army to AuSterlitZ, Jena, Fylau,
Friedland, during the campaigns on the
Elbe, the Vistuia, and the Niemen. She
then went 10 Spain, whence she returned
to witness the battles Of Essling and Wa
gram. In 1912 she followed the grand
army to Russia, and was at the battle be-
fore Moscow, where her husband fell while
storming a redoubt. She returned to
France with remnant of that host, ia
king part in the campaign Of 1918; was
at Bautzen, Lcipsic, and Waterloo. When
the army was recognized she was attach
ed to the Fourth regiment Of the line, and
went with it to Spain in 1924, under the
Duke d'Angouleme. From 1880 to 1884
she was in Africa. In 1859 she went
there again with the depot Of the Fourth,
remaining till 1860. She went to Issou-
dun with the same corps-aIIowed pen
sion by the officers, idolised by the SOL
diers. Her rations were served out to
her as if she was on the strength of the
regiment. She retained her faculties to
the last, and died without pain.

Be A-MAN OF YorR WORD. When you
promise to do thing, do it, Be man of
principle in your word. Do not say that
you intend to-day to visit your sick friend
or neighbor, and then suffer the pressure
Of business to crowd it out os your mind.
He has been watching for your coming
during the week that is past Could you
have seen the bright smile that illumined
his countenance when he said, 81 hear his
voice-his footstep," you would have said
that the keeping of that promise was
worth more to you than much "choice
gold" But when the vision had diSap-
pcarcd and you came not, there was pity
and sorrow, even for you. written upon
those features. For dollars and cents had
become formidable barrier against that
priceless gem, in every mans character,
which either shines in it's own conspicu-
Gus light Of love of the truth, or is set in
the midnight darkness of distrust and
falSehood. Thin, If you wish to do good,
and WELD an influence for truth, be man
of your word.
