To the New French Empire the Consular
Republic contributed one fact of trans
cendent Importance. That was the Code
Napoleon-a work which the Emperor re-
garded to the end of his days as his great
est gift to posterity Before the Revolu-
tion, France had had as many laws as
provinces. The cynical Voltaire declared
that In his country the traveller must
change his code as often as he changed
horses.
The question of unifying and national
izing the statutes of France had been be-
fore the States General at Versailles. BY
that body the measure was remanded to
the National and Constituent Assemblies;
by these, to the Convention; by that, to
the Directory; and by that, TO the Consul
late. Here, then, had arisen n power at
last that was able to revise and reform. A
commission was appointed by the First
Consul, headed by the great lawyer Iron

France.

The Bird Did Not Fall.

People who were walking along a
San Francisco street not long ago sud
denly heard piercing cries from the
upper story of lodging-house. A
woman was leaning from window,
and for moment it was thought that
some brute was trying TO throw her
out. A second look, however, showed
that she held in her hand bird cage.
She had been hanging it out of the
window to give her bird the sun, when
the bottom dropped out The startled
bird was futtering about the top of its
prison, and the woman was screaming:
''Oh, he'll fall! My poor little birdie!'
This was only for moment. With
great presence of mind she turned the
cage upside down, so that her pet
could not drop out and be dashed upon
the cruel pavement. And the captive
went sailing away over the tops of the
| buildings. For some reason he did no,

But an hour later she condcscended

1t was a lovely day and the park was

not very well say my sisters nurse

any such person; nor could he answer
that he did not know, which was the
literal truth, and so he looked glum,

Maintain tho Proper Style.
Owing to the expenses of regimental
life it is every year becoming more and
more difficult for the sons of profess
sional men and of military officers es-
peciaJly, to enter the British army.
There is no longer any room for the
sons of poor gentlemen in tie army,
and it is time for parliament to inter
fere, for under existing circum-
stances, it is hardly possible for a
young officer to serve in British line
regiment without an outside allowance
of an least $50 to elOo a year. Parlia-
ment has made some half-heartcd eff
forts to reduce regimental expenses,
but strict regulations alone can pro-
| duce the needed reforms, and we trust
that the new commander-in-chief will
effect what may be regarded as one of
the most urgent of all military reforms
The cavalry is going 10 pieces be-
cause it officers are all drawn from the
idle rich, and the infantry is in fair
way to similar degeneration owing to
the exclusion of the right sort of Off.
GERS The British subaltern is paid at
the modest rate of IS 81 per diem, and
when advanced to the rank of lievten.
ant his pay is increased to Gs Cd day,
but it should be borne in mind that
such promotion is usually very slow in
times of peace. Should the regime nj
see active service the promotion is of.
ten accelerated, but for ten years OF
more an officer can scarcely expect
higher pay than 6s 6da day. Pay in
the junior grades compare unfavora'
bly, with any civil calling whatsoever
yet the expenses are really much more.
The mess bill of the average subalterr
amounts to about el3 month. Foi
breakfast he is charged Is, for lunch
con Is l. and for dinner 2, 6 lin all 5,
a day for actual food, Notwithstanding
the advantage of service ration
which the officer enjoys in common
with the men. Thus mere living in a
line regiment swallows up considera bly,
more than the young officers actual
pay, leaving nothing over for uniforms
and other expenses. London Court
