while there he was a diligent student.
Not only did he study the authorities ON

In Latin and Greek from Mr. Rowland
Reynolds. first teacher OF the Humanities
In the old Richmond Academy. Mr.. Rey-
nolds was graduate of Trinity College,

NApoLEoN's TEMPERATE HABITS.
He Never Was . Gourmet But EnJoyd
Himself on ST. Heieos.
New York Recorder

(New York Recorder)
At no time I'm the life OF Napoleon Cid
he give himself over TO the pleasures OF
the table. He grew 10 be more OF
gourmand at st. Helena than ever be-
fore. but even there IL was impossible for
any one to accuse him OF excess During
tho campai gn OF Italy when he was max
ing history with every victory, he rarely
spent more than ten minutes At dinner,
and had the habit OF carrying In his sad.
dlebags a cold fowl, n bottle OF wine. and
a loaf OF bread. which satisfied him. even
when very hungry. lie would eas ths
chicken and the bread alone sometimes,
but oftener shared them, a. well AS the
wine, with a fellow-ofiicer.
After the thirteenth vendemaire. when
he was really In the position Of dictator
OF Paris. he had to contend against .
famine that made public distribution OF
bread necessary. Naturally the scarcity
OF food was liable TO become a serious
element in the politics of the time. II
was essential to look carefully to tho
state Of feeling In the mob. which had
so often proved itself capable OF over
throwing an administration. Napoleon
was walking along the street with Q
part Of his staff one morning. after tho
distribution OF bread had been insuffi-
cient, and tumultuous scenes we're oc-
curing in front OF the doors OF the bakers.
As the officers passed the crowds 1esfed
at them. One woman. moDstrously big
and fat. made herself conspicuous by wild
gestlculation. "All that crowd OF epau-
lette-wearers are making a Iaughing-stock
OF usr' she exclaimed bitterly. "It they
can eat and grow fat It's all the same
to them II the poor people are starving"
Napoleon stopped and interrupted her;
my good woman" he said. look me over
carefully and tell me which of us two 10
the fatter just now" tQuel est 10 plu
gras de nous deuxD
Napoleon at that time was as thin as o
rail He says himself: "I was like q
sheet OF parchment" J'etais un vrai
parchemin.) The crowd took In tho sttua-
ton at once and broke into laughter and
cheers. The story was told all over L ar,s.
and had very appreciabie influence In
calming the irritation Of . populance az
keen in taking . joke as II was reckls~-
in action after II had once appealed to lne
divine righA OF revolution.

GIVE The LADIES REST TOO.
Movement Looking to Closing Retail stores
= SATURDAY. Afternoons


The movement inauguratcd by the Ia
dies Of the Second Baptist church look
ing TO extending the operation OF the Sat
urday half-holiday TO retail as well as
wholesale business houses is one that
must commend itself 10 the public.
Their object-and II is certainly a lauda-
bic onc-is 10 secure shorter hours and
half days rest on Saturdays for the sales
ladies' and others employed in the large
dry-goOds stores as We'll as for the male
clerks In the down town establishments.
The half holiday has already become a
great thing In Richmond. and more hard
worked and tired people get an afternoon
OF rest once a week now than ever be-
fore In the citys history. Employers as
well as employees are pleased.
And II this plan works well for the men,
why should not the ladies who wait In
stores be also given the benefit of 1t? This
is Just the question that presented itself
TO the Second-c church ladies. and they re-
resolved at once 10 use their influence
toward the accomplishment of this end.
They determined not to do any shopping
after F. NJ. on Saturdays themselves
and TO appeal to all their sisters to re-
frain from making purchases after that
hour on the last day of the week.
Rev. j. Calvin Stewart, OF the Church
OF the Covenant, is so impressed with
the action taken by the ladies OF Dr.
LandruIn's congregation that be authorizes

subject to the attention OF the female
members OF his flock tomorrow, and sug-
eest that they unite in the praiseworthy
movement. 1t is not unlikely that other
pastors will do likewise.
