Improved WhiteWash.

It is not the American fashion for
people to &c to their government to
learn how to do things. Perhaps, how
ever, the making of whitewash Is an
exception. That recommended by the
lighthouse board of the treasury de-
partment for the outside of build
Ings is cheap and durable. We give
this recipe, believing it to be one of
the best: Stake one half bushel of
stone lime in boiling water; keep it
covered while being slaked. Strain
the whltewash and add one half peck
of salt dissolved In warm water,
three pounds of ground rice dis
solved in boiling water and into q
thin paste, one-half pound Spanish
whiting and one pound of clear glue
dissolved in hot water. Mix all
these together and let the wash
stand for several days. Keep in
kettle and heat it before applying.
1t can be put on with paint or
whitewash brush. The glue and
other ingredients prevent this white
wash from scaling off, as 1t viii do
when made with lime alone.-Rurat

NAPOLEONS ARMY.
The Forces With Which He Fought The
Battle of Waterloo.

The army of Napoleon was COM
posed entirely of veteran troops.
1t was also in excellent order and
condition. 1t was a homogeneous
army; all the men were FreEchmen.
The troops were eager to fight, re
trieve the reputation of the French
arms, to recover their lost renown.
1t was prepared for a desperate
struggle. The emperor in his ad-
dress to the army dated at Avesnes
on the l4th of June, had reused the
spirits and determination of the SOL
diers to their highest pitch. He had
reminded them that this was the an
niversary OF Marengo and Friedland !;
he had pointed out that they were
about to encounter superior num-
bers; he had told them to conquer
or die. Nevertheless it is mistake
to call this army, as many writers
have done, the finest which Napole-
on ever took into the field. In two
points, especially this army was not
the equal of that, for example,
which he commanded at Austerlitz.
In the first place, 1t had not the in
estimable advantage of being led by
those brilliant officers, then in the
early prime of manhood, who had
been brought to the front in the tur-
mol of the revolutionary struggle.
OF the two who were at Waterloo,
Ney and Soult, one, Soult was per-
forming the functions of chief of
staff. Ney was the only one of the
Marshalls who commanded troops in
that fatal field. Not that the corps
commanders lacked experience or
devotion. They were "uquestiona-
bly, excellent officers, who had seen
many years of faithful service. But
Napoleon's earlier exploits had been
to large extent rendered practica-
BILE only by the exceptionally able
men who were his own contempora-
ries-Massenna, Lannes, Davout,
Murat and the rest. Secondly,
there was in this army of 1915, and
there could not but be, a certain
amount of distrust, of lack of entire
confidence, on the part of the sol
diers toward their superiors, the re-
suit of the so recent overthrow OF
the Empire In 1914, which had been
associated in their minds with suspl-
cions of reasonable conduct On the
part of certain officers Of high rank.

sign of dry weather.
If the clouds be of different
heights, the sky Icing grayish or
