NAPOLEON SLEPT THERE.

The French consul at Warsaw, the
capital of Russian Poland, recently re-
ceived a request from peasant that
he aid him in repairing his cottage.
which was falling into ruin. 1t was ia
this cottage that Napoleon Bonaparte
spent a day and a night in December,
1906 The cottage stands five versts
from the fortress of wageorgiewsk.
in the village of Okuniw. on the bank
of the river Narew. It was while SUI
perintending the passage of his troops
across this river that Napoleon occu-
pied the peasants cottage.
Above the door these words are
carved deep in the wood: ''Palais de
PEmpereur, lie 90 Decembre, 1906 An
other inscription, this in latin, is
carved upon a black marble slab set
in one of the walls of the house and
conveys substantially the same mean
ing. It is not known by whom the tab
let or placard was placed or who
carved the words over the door, but it
is asserted that they date from the
time of Napoleon's visit. The present
occupaut of the cottage is a direct de-
scendant of him who entertained Bon
aparte beneath his roof, and the report
made by the French consul says that
the peasant tells with enthusiasm the
details of the imperial visit, which had
been handed down from generation to
generation, and that he exhibits to
visitors a statuette of the emperor
which shows him seated upon a throne
with the world beneath his feet. This
statuette is very old and the peasant
regards it with the utmost reverence.

emerald has always been held in the
highest esteem. It's peculiarly rich and
delicate color has charm that is ever
new, and its cool green tint is said, by
many authors, to be restful to the eye.
EHneralds are usually cut in simpler
forms than diamonds and the corun-
dunn gems. The form preferred is what
is called the table-cut-a square or OBJ
long, with large fat face and bev-
eled edges the lower surface being
cut in long narrow facets parallel to
the sides. Fine gems command the
price of fine diamonds, and the phrase,
"A fiaWless emerald is classic.
The immense emeralds reported by
ancient writers. as carved into statues,
etc, were plainly other green stones
COMPOUNDED under the same name.
Fine emeralds have always been rare
and highly esteemed. The emerald is
the softest of the precious stones, and
although in not so great demand from
1915 to 1890, it was never cheap. With
Its recent return to high favor for
tunately new finds have been made,
and many fine emeralds sold. Those
of rich color, cut on ca'bochen, are es-
pecially appreciated at present.

1T MAKES a DIFFERENCE.

Johnson owned dog. Thompson
lived next door to Johnson. The dog
howled all night seven nights week.
Thompson said to Johnson: Look
here, we have always been good friends
and neighbors, and l thought ] would
tell you that the bowling of that dog
of yours is driving me and my family
mad for want of sleep. My wife has
lost nearly five pounds in weight"
That's queer" said Johnson. 81
havn't noticed him making any noise"
One evening Thomas came into the
house leading the obnoxious dog by a
string. Now said he to the aston
.shed Mrs. Thompson, 1--WE will soon
settle the dog nuisance. l didn't like
to kill the dog while he belonged to
johnson, so I bought the beast. There
is nothing unneighborly in killing our
own dog. I'll get some chloroform to-
morrow"
Johnson said to Thompson, one day
chloroformed the dog yet"
mo" said Thompson, "the truth is
we have become rather fond of the
little fellow. He is so lively and play
full"
But doesn't his barking at night an
noy you?"
Haven't noticed it at ALL
''H'mw said Johnson .'The brute
keeps me awake for hours with his
yelling"
Which fable has been written to
show how easy it is to put up with the
noise made by our own dog, and how
difficult to endure the noise of our
neXt-door neighbours dog.

FRESH FACTS ABOUT ANNALS.

Some entirely new facts about the
habits of animals were observed. not
very long ago, by Mr.. w. II. hudson,
an Enghshman, and even such a vet
eran naturalist as Mr.. Alfred r. Wal
lace expressed surprise and delight over
the revelations. Mr. Hudson's CbserVa-
tons were made principally among the
PampaS of South America, but some
of the animals whose habits he studied
have very wide range. The puma,
or American lion, for instance, is found
all the way from the straits of Magel-
Ian to British Columbia, and it ex-
hibits a remarka BILE Indifference TO eli
mate, dwelling alike in the heated low
lands and high UP among the mountain
slopes and precipices.
The most interesting fact Mr.. Fud-
son has to tell about the puma is that,
although the animal is a fighter and a
conqueror. overcoming i'll personal con-
fiict the jaugar on the one hand, the
grizzly bear or the other, yet it would
not attack a human being unless fore
ed to do so in self defense.
The natives of the PampaS have so
much confidence in the puma, which
they call the friend of man. that they
sleep unprotected and perfectly fearless
on the plains where the animals are
known to be proving about, and 1t is
asserted that a little child NAV be left
upon the plains in absolute security so
far as any danger from pu1nas is con-
cerned. Yet the animal aoes not appear
to stand in fear of man, but "a Their to
take pleasure in his being near.
Mr. Hudson has studied what we may
call the amusements of birds, With in
teresting results. He has watched such
birds as hawks, ibises, vultures and
gulls circling about in the air in fiock5
for an hour or more at a time, perform
ing e,volutions as regular and graceful
as those of dance by human beings,
the birds all the time exhibiting indica-
lions that the mere delight of the aerial
, motion was all they sought.
Such things are within the reach of
everybody's eye, but it is only now and
then that man like Mr. Hudson comes
and having observed the facts with the
keen judgment of the man Of science.
turns about and communicates what he
has learned to a world which is only
too glad to listen.-Youth's Companion.

FAST LIVING AMERICANS.

We new world people are fast livers,
and in nothing is this more observable
than in our reckless irregularity as to
sleep and diet. We alternately starve
and gorge ourselves, doing each in the
most irregular and hasty manner, with
out regard to the nutritive value of the
food consumed, or the deleterious eff
fects upon the digestive organs or the
terrible tasks imposed upon them at
the most unreasonable hours. 1t is lit
