to the Oil and vaTnish department, in the
main building. At O'Clock the whole vast
Establishment was one sheet of fire. The
water poured on the burning building made
no perceptible impression. The fire was con-
nned TO the block In which IL originated.
About 9 O'Clock the walls on Pembroke
street fell, knocked down at least a dozen
spectators, half Of whom were taken from
the ruins dead or seriously hurt. John kim

What Is il To be A Christian.

1t will be great help if at starting you
have a right idea Of what it really is to be n
Christian. Do not look at it first as some
thing that is going to make you happy.
Think, rather, that you are aiming to be the
best and noblest kind of man and woman.
You are going to be faithful, and brave, and
unselfsh and lovable. You are going to
think more Of other peoples happiness than
of your own. You are to live like child
of God, taking him for your father, trusting
him for everything, seeking through his help
to be like him. In word you are to try to
live like Jesus Christ lived. Never forget
that to be Christian is to be like Christ.
Perhaps to some Of you the words "to be
like Christ" have a kind Of beautiful sound
but not very clear meaning. Let us start at
the beginning, then, with something so simple
that all can understand it. The first thing
is to be like Christ, and the great thing, is to
be faithful to everything that we know is
right. That means a great deal. 1t means
something different at every hour. In school
time it means studying ones lessons faith
fully; at play-time, it means being generous
and gentle and fair; when we are at home,
it is to be watchful for the comfort and hap
piness of every one in the house; when we
are tempted to any kind Of evil, by other
people, by our own thoughts, it is saying no,
and sticking to it. 1t is a thousand such
things that make up Christian life.

Miscellaneous.



He was born a king, if to command the
obedience of men be the whole art of king
ship, which may perhaps be doubted. lie
seems in general to have acted on the plan
of Frederick the Great; that is, he demand
ed nothing but success from his lieutenants,
and was careless of the means they took to
obtain it. Only failure he would never
forgive. 1t was a favorite saying of his that
he never judged men but by results. It was
to no purpose that Massena gave excellent
reasons for his defeat by Wellington; Ma
poleon wanted victories, and not explana-
tions. There is foolish story, to which so
eminent man as S5uthey could give cred
ence, to the effect that Admiral Villeneuye
was assassinated by order of the Emperor
after his disgrace at Trafalgar There can
be no serious doubt that the unfortunate
commander committed suicide in sheer ter
ror at the idea of an interview with the stern
master whose plans he had caused to miscar-
ny.
1t is fair to add that those of his captains
who were successful had no need to COM
plain that their services were insuiiiciently
appreciated. Even Mlssena had acquired
an income of 100000 while his star was in
the ascendent. Soult had $50 900 Il year /;
Ncy nearly $4,000; Davoust $3.50, 900 /;
while Bertier, Prince of Neuchatcl, enjoyed
a princey revenue of some $27O, 900. "Thcy
will no longer fight" Napoleon once ex-
claimed in a moment of detection, referring
to his generals. 81 have made them too
rich"
1t may be suspected that it was rather from
motives of policy than of gratitude that Ma
poleon thus created the fortunes of his mar
shals in day. He was anxious to establish
as a support to his throne powerful aristoc-
racy which in splendor and TO do him JUS
tice) in the brllancy of its achievements
should rival the old nobility of France. He
forgot, however, that though monarchy and
democracy can exist and have existed with
out prescription, an aristocracy to be vener-
ablemust absolutely bear the seal of antiquity
In none of his projects had Cromwell failed
more hopelessly than in his attempt to re-
construct the House of Lords in England.
Napoleon, it is true, did not propose to con-
fer legislative functions on his mobiles as such
nevertheless he intended them to be priv
ileged class, and this alone was more cour-
ageous than wise idea on the morrow of 1889.
