BULLY For JOHN.

The Western Life says that Lea.
venworth youth who enlisted in the
army two years ago to work his
way up to a commission and who
has spent all that long time on the
other side of the globe alternately
studying and going on hikes for
Uncle Sam, has recently returned
to Leavenworth to take an examin-
alton for a commission. He has al
ways been one of the most popular
men in the younger set and his
friends upon learning of his return
set about showing him a good time,
but were warned off with these
words: Il appreciate all this, fell
lows, but / have come half way
around the world to take this
examination and for the present l
am going to give the examination
my entire attention" Bully for Ser
geant John West, and If he isn't
wearing shoulder straps in a few
weeks, we miss our guess.

NAPOLEON Az THIRTY.FOUR

He Was the Porsonifcation of rrance 10
She Was at This Time.
Bonaparte was now thirty-four. Thus
far he had been neither the tool Of fate
nor the architect of his own fortunes;
he was both. In Corsica his immature
powers had been thwarted by condi-
tions beyond his control During the
revolution he had caught at every
straw which would spare his life and
give him living. Until his marriage
he was q soldier of fortune, and for
tune made it difficult, either by profes.
sional excellence or political scheming
to grasp any Of her favors. Accord
ingly he went without them, suffering,
erring, dreaming, philosophizing. OBJ
serving. and gathering the experience
which made him mature ut the age
when most men are still boys The
observer can descry no revolution In
his character when fortune began to
smile and opportunities began to open.
There Is the same INSCRIPTIONS enter
prise, the same determination to seize
the chances of the hour, the same abil.
ity to make the most of circumstances
but the grist is now wheat and the re.
sultant output is -four.
Every success is made Introductory
to another and there are no evidences
of great scheming, except as similar
evidences were observable in the over
weening self-confidence of his boyhood
ut Milleli Only now his plans unfold,
not in the child blasts.of ha bitual fail
ure, but in the mild breezes of the
prospecting ia Influences amid which they
are formed 1t becomes very easy,
therefore, to proclaim, as many his
torians do. the existence OF great life
scheme extending forward to the en-
pire and backward to his earliest
youth-to declare that with satanic
powers the boy had arranged every de-
tail of his manhood. OF this there Is
not the slightest proof. All that Is
clear is the continued use, by great
mind sharpened in the fires of expert
ence, of greater opportunities as they
arose.
Like all men of commanding ability,
he belonged, not to one age, but to all
ages. His elemental nature made the
time and place and conditions in which
he actually lived a means to his end.
exactly as another century and an
other environment would have been.
Whatever else he was either before Or
afterward, he was the personifcation
OF France as she was at this time,
when he arrived, by her desire and
connivance, at the height Of his power.
His future, then, is, like his past, the
resultant of his own and the national
personality interacting one upon the
other. Prof. Sloane; in Century.
