NauoIeon and Home Production.

Napoleon forbade the use of cotton or of foreign wood for the furniture of the imperial palaces. He desired that the people who were invited to the drawing rooms at court should dress only ill silk, so as to encourage the Lyons manufac- tories. He declared war on Indian cash meres, but his power was impotent against the tyranny of fashion and against routine. The emperor threaten ed the empress in vain that he would throw her cashmere shawls into the fire The empress used to answer him that as soon as they could give her stufTs as light and warm as the cashmere woOlcns she would be very glad to wear them.
 The emperor encouraged the manu lecturers of French shaw nmis- stoned Isabey to make the de4 sof q magnificent woolen stuff like cashmere on q white ground, with which a shawl and dress were made. Marie Louise wore them with some reluctance. These stuffs had not the softness which they have since acquired The empress used to complain with reason that her dress ''griped" whenever she went near the fire.-Memoirs Baron de MenevaL

 He folded his strong arms around the small girl, and he pressed her hands fondly and whispered words of hope and courage.
 'Tell me just once that you do care for me just little bit, and that you won't back out of marrying me at the end of three years" he said. Our chances for getting out of this alive are few, and know if you don't answer now you never will Please. please, please, Megr' His voice was pitched loudly and shrilly.
 ''I can't promise for sure, Jim I can't even now. I'm so frightened. I know we're both going to die. The waves never scared me before" And the rest was lost as an enormous roll of water deluged them.
 No other word was said. A moment later there was a wild crashing and creaking of timber.
 The anxious watchers saw the boat tossed in among a nest of logs that lined the beach.
 Like n crowd of stupid, senseless be- ings, they gazed and wrung their hands. Then they saw tall form raise itself up in the stern of the boat He had something ill his arms that looked like a woman swathed in n piece of tarpau- lin. The boat was only a few rods from the shore and was just ready to fall to pieces. Suddenly the tall figure leaped into the water. with his helpless burden in one arm, while with the other he fought his way among the pillows and rolling logs. The watchers rushed to his assistance. They saw him whirlcd and buffetcd around much as a mouse being leased by frolicsome minded cat. He had nearly reached the shore when an enormous log flung itself against him. With mighty effort he threw his bur- den toward the frantic assembly off people.
 Then he sank and was seen no more until the next day, when his crushed and manglcd body fioated gently on the now restful waves, which finally de- posited his remains at the foot of the lit tie dock where the dory had always rugged and pulled at its anchor ropes
 And that Is the reason why q woman considered clever and gifted by the worlds critics is always sad and heart sick when she hears the moaning of the winds or tho roaring of beating. restless water. Fame and fortune have come to her.
 She is no longer a crude, uncultured creature with flying black hair and rough fingers. The world bows down in reverence to her, for her stories are read by thousands and her pictures received most favorably by all. She laughs, and her friends declare her to be the jolliest person in Christendom. But when q storm comes up, and the skies darken, and the air is filled with dire forebod- ing. she sinks into sad, lifeless being, whose eyes arc heavy with unshed tears and whose throat is choked with sobs
 At these times her friends depart and murmur soft words of pitying tender ness among themselves. Chicago News.

The variety that can be furnished by

THEY WATCHED THE HOLE.
How Hiram Citizens Thought They
Had Burglar.

But the willy Burglar Had Taken Time
by the Forelock and Escaped-Only
About Fifteen Dollars Taken.
The village of Hiram was thrown into
a state of excitement early yesterday
morning by the presence of burglar in
the village post Office.
The postmaster of Hiram is Mr.. Mon
roe Boynton, who is also the proprietor
of village store. The post Office is in
the store, which occupies the first floor,
while Mr.. Boynton, who is bachelor,
sleeps in the room above.
Mr., Boynton closed the store and post
Office as usual Thursday night, and retir-
ing to the room above went TO bed and
to sleep. How long he slept is not quite
certain, but along in the night or early
in the morning he was awakened by a
noise in the store below. Apparently
Mr.. Boynton had at some time foreseen
such contingency as had arisen, for he
got out of bed carefully and betook him
self to peep hole which commanded a
view of the store beneath.
Postmaster Boynton was not little
startled by the sight that met his gaze.
There, in the store below, within the en-
closure sacred to the postmaster alone,
was strange man, with the money
drawer open before him, and his hands
in tine drawer. The man had light of
some kind, SO that Postmaster Boynton
could see quite plainly that the man was
robbing the post office.
Mr.. Boynton at once determined to
capture the burglar, and as the first step
thereto hastily dressed, crept down the
stairs and FASTENED to warn the neigh
bors. After considerable knocking at
doors and many hurried whispers in the
dark the levy of neighbors was complet-
ed, and the force advanced on the post
office. A careful reconnoitre by the
boldest soon disclosed the opening which
the burglar had made to effect his en-
trance. Then it was decided that the
best way to capture the burglar would
be to watch the hole he went in at until
he should come out, So the postmaster
and his neighbors camped around about
the aperture until the rosy fingered
daughter of dawn began to paint the
eastern sky. Then some one ventured to
peep into the store, and it was discov-
cred that the burglar was no longer
there. A large fierce dog, that was sup
posed to be able to keep all intruders
away was comfortably sleeping in his
usual place.
1t was found that the actual plumber
which the burglar got away with amount
to only about fifteen OF twenty dollars.
