Napoleon's Memory.

Napoleon had a wonderful memory.
When emperor, he once surprised his
council with his intimate knowledge of
Roman law and was asked how he had
obtained it. He stated that when a lieu
tenant he had once been placed under
arrest andwas in prison for two weeks.
During that time the only book at his
command was a treatise on Roman law.
He sat down and in two weeks mastered
the volume so completely that 20 years
later he could repeat long passages from
its pages. He never forgot face or a
name and would often greet private SOL
diers by their names, sometimes allud-
ing to the march or the battle where he
had seen them before. He kept in his
head all the details of his military
movements, and it was said of him that
during the march to Italy and Marengo
he knew where every pound of the sup
plies for the use of the army was located.
1t is said that he remembered the name
Of every officer to whom he ever issued
q commission

"I.iviny Stones Of Falkland.

Tho most curious specimens of vegc-
table or plant life in existence are the
so called Living stones" of the Falk-
land islands. Those islands are among
the most cherries spots in the world,
being constantly subjected to strong
polar wind. In such climate it is i'm
possible for trees to grow erect, as they
do in other countries, but nature has
made amends by furnishing supply OF
wood in the most curious shape imagi-
nablc. The visitor to the Falklands sees,
scattered here and there, singular shaped
blocks of what appears to DO weather
beaten and moss covered powders of
various sizes. Attempt to turn one of
these "bowiders" over and you will
meet with surprise, because the sup
posed stone is actually anchored bv roots
of great strength. In fact, you will find
that you ere fooling with one of the
native trees. No other country in the
world has such peculiar forest
growth, and it is said TO be next to i'm
possible to work the odd shaped blocks
into fuel, because it is perfectly devoid
of grain. and appears 10 be nothing
but twisted mass of woody fibers. -

Swordsmanship Against . Tiger.

Sir James Outram, known as the Bay
ard of India, was a mighty hunter"
and an accomplished swordsman. He
once performed the hazardous feat Of
killing tiger with his sword and from
the back of his horse. General Nichol
son performed a similar feat.
He rode round and round the tiger at
a gallop, gradually narrowing the circle,
until at last he was near enough to de-
liver his blow. He had only the one
blow, and il he had failed to kill the
tiger he himself would have been slain.
The explanation Of the feat is that
the tiger does not spring upon the horse
man during the circling process, because
he is watching his opportunity. As the
circle draw closer and closer upon him,
he becomes bewildered by the strange
maneuver, so unlike that of any hunter
no has ever encountered. - Youths

DON'T TUB TOO MUCH.
Professor Cheeky Advances the idea That
1t Is Injurious.

Professor Cheeky Advances the idea That
1t Is Injurious.
Bathing and the use of SOAP" says
Professor Cheeky, lis 40 per cent more
injurious to the human race than any
other form of stimulation to which peo-
pie are addicted. If I should batho q
man in proportion as much as he drank,
I'd kill him in one-half the time. This
is called the age of hurry and feverish
excitement; critics complain that people
are unwilling to take time for any
thing. As a matter of fact, hours of
precious time are worse than wasted
daily in the bathroom. If men would
preserve their health, there are three
things they must do-first, leave soap
alone; second, get the skin loose from
the tissues of the body; third, get rid of
the idea that regularity in the matter of
sleep and meals is necessary to physical
well being"
What are the objections to the use
OF soap:" asked a reporter to whom the
professors original views were a reve-
lation.
There are vital objections, was the
reply. 1.-THE skin, it is acknowledged,
bears q most important relation to the
body. First, it acts as protective
agent, covering the sensitive tissues Of
the flesh. Second, it acts as the agent
of the mind, conveying all sensations
Of heat, cold, friction and the like.
Third, it directly aids all the other or
gans of the body, taking up the work of
each in turn when for any reason they
become unable to perform their func-
tons. The skin assists all the organs Of
secretion and excretion in the entire
system, and for that reason great atten-
ton should be paid to keeping it in a
healthy condition. Although realizing
Us important functions, people, instead
Df protecting this wonderful covering
of theirs, try by every means in their
power to destroy it. Soap does not
cleanse the skin. When the skin is dirty,
it is unhealthy, and the organs within
the body can never be cleansed by all
the soaps in the world. The only stains.
blots, ETC., OH the surface of the skin
that people need to get rid of cannot
be removed by soap. Some other chem
ical ointment or fluid has to be resorted
10 to obliterate them. As far as regards
the dust and dirt which naturally adj
here to the body, dust and dirt, being
earthly and material, arc much better
brushed off than washed off, and soap
does not aid i'll the process. ''-Philadel-
