Napoleon was snuff taker i'll a mild
way, smelling of the tobacco rather
than snuifing it, but never learned to
smoke Once only, according to his
valet, Constant he tried pipe. The at
tempt, of which Constant gives hui
morous account, was on this wise;
An eastern ambassador, Persian or
Turkish, had presented the emperor
with n handsome oriental pipe, and one
day the fancy took him to use it. Con-
slant, at his masters request got every
thing in readiness and applied the fire.
1t remained, of course, for the emperor
to set the tobacco alight by drawing III
his breath. So his valet told him.
But" adds Constant, lat the rate
his majesty went to work the thing
would never be done. He contented
himself with opening and shutting his
| LIPS without breathing the least in the
world"
Finally he put the pipe into the Wallets
| hands and commanded him to light it,
which the valet did and returned the
pipe to his majesty. Napoleon took one
good puff and was as awkward this
time as before. The smoke got into hi'
windpipe, and instead of being expelled
through the mouth it came out of thu
nostrils and eyes. So Constant says q
all events.
The emperor was nearly strangled
and as soon as he recovered breath Ii,
cried:

recovered his equanimity, and that wa
