AN HISTORIC CURIo.
The Attempted Suicide OF Napoleon I. ri
Fontafnebleau.

The Attempted Suicide of Napoleon L. at
Fontafnebleau.
1t is not, perhaps, without interest mt
this moment, when President Carnot
establishes his residence in the palace
of Fontainebleau, to recall one of the
most curious affairs of history attached
to this famous house.
1t was during the night of April l2,
1914. Already the allies occupied Paris.
Napoleon. giving away on all sides
under the formidable pressure of the
enemy, took refuge at Fontainebleau,
not knowing to what extremity to re-
sort, and, on account of the despair of
the master, the chateau was plunged
into gloomy silence. Suddenly, in the
middle of the night, the long corridors
of the palace were all animation. The
domestics OF the chateau were ascend
ing and descending. the lights of the
departments were all lighted, the
Wallets were on the ''qui yive."
One knocked at the door of the room
of Baron WAN, surgeon of the en-
peror; one awoke the grand marshal,
Bertrand; one called the Duke de
Whence; one ran to seek the Duke de
Bassano, who dweft at the chancery.
All came and were admitted successive
ly into the bedroom of the emperor.
Groans aud sobs escaped from the room
and echoed along the gallery.
Finally DIR. IVAN came out, descended
precipitately into the court, mounted a
horse which was fastened to post and
galloped off.
What drama has just taken place?
The following is the report of an
eyewitness:
''At the epoch of the retreat from
Moscow Napoleon had procured in case
of accident, the means of not falling
alive into the. hands of the enemy
Surgeon Yyan had put up for him a
package of opium, which he wore On
his neck when in danger; since then
he had kept it in secret drawer of his
cabinet. That night it seemed to him
no other source was left. The valet de
chambre, who slept behind his half
opened door, heard him rise, and heard
him stir something in glass of water.
drink, then lie down again. Soon pain
wrung from Napoleon the confession
of his approaching end. 1t was then he
called the favorites of the court. IVAN,
learning what had just happened, and
hearing Napoleon complain that the
action of the poison was not prompt
enough, lost his head and fed quickly
from Fontainebleau. A. long drowsi-
ness followed, and after a'heavy sweat
the pain ceased and the frightful symp-
toms died away. Whether the dose
was insufficient or time had weakened
the poison is unknown. Napoleon, as
tonished at finding himself living, said:
God does not wish it, and resigned
himself to his destiny. This anecdote,
related by Baron Fain,. secretary Of
the emperor, merits being better
known."-Boston Traveller.

Oddities About Memory.

The memory remains intact and in

the left side Of the brain is badly dis
eased, from which 1t may be inferred
that the right side of the bsain is the
seat Of this remarkable faculty. From
the psychologists point Of view the
power of memory is badly diminished
by. too much food, by an excess of
physical exercise, and by educationl II
this is true the illiterats has a better
memory, than the educated man of the
period. It'has also been proven that
the memory is better in the morning
