NAPOLEON AS A CooE.-The following

Paron Meneval beautifully illustrates the
social spirit of Napoleon, The remem.

omelet. While she was occupied in that
important culinary operation, the Empe

The Empress, little embarrassed, en-
deayored TO conceal her preparations.
"Ah, 7 exclaimed the Emperor with a

nothing about it. / will show you how
it is done He immediately took his
place at the table, and went to work
with the Empress, she serving as assistant

one side ofit fried. Now came the diff
