like invincibles. Musketry, grapeshot
and shells from the lines and the angles
moved down the fierce riders of the des-
ert, and with unparalleled desperation
they forced their horses through the
deep ranks, then backed them out to
clear a pathway with their iron heels.
Failing in that, they hurled upon the
solid ranks their pistols and poniards,
while those who fell endorsed crawled
on the ground and slashed at the legs
of the French soldiers with knives and
scimiters. But the barbaric valOr was
wasted. The bands one by one deserted
and plunged into the Nile. Then the
slaves abandoned the trenches, and the
French rushed to the bank of the river,
keeping up the slaughter until only Mu-
rad and a bodyguard Of a few hundred
horsemen remained. Thus, at a swoop,
was destroyed the finest body OF horse
back fighters ever seen upon the earth.
Napoleon, viewing the wrecks of the
once mighty host, declared, Gould

French infantry, l would have reck-

Their overwhelming defeat struck ter
ror to the Moslems, and Napoleon was
named, in memory of the rolling flash
of his musketry and cannon yolleys,

On the tedious march Napoleon strobe
on ahead, giving his men an example
of hardihood and determination. Though
his face was habitually gloomy and
sphinxlike. his restless activity could
but arouse enthusiasm, and enthusiasm
was needed. The soldiers grumbled at
their hardships, and the officers openly
expressed disgust. Marat and Lannes,
the future favorites Of their chief, trOd
their cockades in the sand and rallied at
the mad folly Of the expedition.
Finally the column reached the Nile
and united with the flotilla. Seven days
later it reached Cairo, where Murad
Bey, the chief of tho Mameluke horde,
had assembled IL, 900 followers, each
having two armed slaves to fight on
foot. The latter, numbering "a, 900, We're
placed behind intrenchments on the
western bank of the Nile, covering the
city opposite. After deploying his
squares en- echelon, or like steps, with
tho right flank of each refused, Napo-
leon marched upon the trenches, but
discovering that the cannon Of the
Egyptians were in stationary rests and
not on carriages, to be turned right or
" left, he directed a flank movement to
escape their direct front fire.
Murad Bey instantly saw the danger
and gave the order TO charge. With
yell the Malnelukes swept from their
places On the TANKS of the batteries and
circled around the advancing lines. Ma
poleon allowed them to ride up within
half pistol shot before opening fire.
Meanwhile he harangued the legiOns
calling upon them to stand fast. To thu

claimed, SOLDIERS, from yon lofty sum

for Christians. Isn't that a glorious
privilege. We OF the faith are not to
be Judged, but win pass into the ran
somod host at the right hand OF God
without a question being asked. An
other thing, we need to see Christ as
our leader, our guide. When one gets
salvation Chris, does not say 10 him.
4 have given you a good start and you
must go your way alone but II you will
only keep your eyes on Him He will
lead you direct to heaven. He will go
before and scatter the imps Satan
sends to block a Christians pathway
IL is not until We turn our backs on
Him that we begin to stumble and
fall All We must do Is to walk In his
footsteps. Peter never denied his Lord
MS long as he could see Him. Paul was
victorious because he kept his eyes
fixed on Jesus. stephen, who was ston-
ed to death, was courag eous because
he walked In Christ's footsteps and kept
his eyes on him. Just before you sin
look up into Chrlsts face. Just try
that, my friends. when you are about
to say an unklnd word or commit an un-
charitable act BE full OF the Spirit
and you can sing always Christ has
promised 10 come again and He will.

try It may therefore he interesting
to many readers OF his sermons to
learn how Dwight l.. Moody rose to

hard working farmer. The father died
when Dwight was a mere child, leav-
ing q widow and a large family OF

TO become tho great evangelist worked
at home until he was II years of agc.
About this time he went to Boston.
where he had an uncle He obtained
employment there. and began to nj
tend church, lie knew very little of
the Bible then, but Joined a big sun
day school class and began to study
The first lesson he was called upon 10
rectte was source Of much mortiHc1-
ton to him. \ kindness OF his teach
err was all that carried him back. This
teacher in pointing out to him the
location OF one OF the books OF the
Bible probably made Christian of
