lier than usual. Swarms Of Cossacks
surrounded the Frenchmen, harassing
them at every chance The invaders,
worn out. were thrown into disorder.
The remainder Of the retreat of Ma.
poleon's army has no parallel in his
tory for the various sufferinKs and hor-

time he had reached the Berezina, his
army had dwindled to 1000 men. In
the retreat from Moscow alone 90, 900
had been lost. In the whole campaign
some historians have estimated that
$4,000 had been slain. 132 900 died Of
fatigue and hunger and cold and 1884,
600 were made prisoners. Napoleon
was cow reinforced by $4,000 men,
and he made his way across the Bere-

In that terrible march from Moscow
in the fall and winter Of the year 1912.
The main facts of the French retreat
from the ruins OF the great Russian
city are as follows: Napoleon had en-

country through which his route lay
devastated and abandoned as he ad.
vanced. with no enemy to make a
stand against him. He had to leave
large bodies Of troops along his line of
march and to detach forces to threat

At the battle Of Borodino. Sept. z, one
or the bloodiest in history, the losses
probably aggregated 10000 on each
side. The loss to Napoleon. who could
get no achievements. was fatal.
But still he pressed on and entered
Moscow, Sept. IA. to find himself
robbed OF the fruits Of his victory by
the terrible confagration which broke
out two days later. Yet Napoleon
fingered in Moscow until Oct. 10. Then
he marced southwark to Kaluga. ho-

ANIMALS THAT LIKE TOBACCO
Terrier Grew Fond OF His Pipe-Monkey
Addicted to Snuff.
Ero,n T;f-Pis

Most animals have an utter adherence OF
tobacco in any shape or form, says the pro-
prietor OF q menagerie. have myself made
even really ferocious dog turn tail simply

But to this rule as to all others. there are
exceptions. and numerous instances are
known of animals possessing positive love
for the fragrant weed. Dogs. 1t is we'll kno wn,
can be tau ght to do almost everything but
talk. ana in my early days l was connected
with a circus which possessed the unique
attraction OF q terrier which, among iother r
tricks. had been instructed in the art of smok-
ing clay pipe. Tho curious point was that
the animal actually got to enjoy its pipe
and would insist on having II at the usual time
every Sunday. as In the performance on
week days.
The parrot is perhaps Of all birds the most
apt to take up bad habits A friend of mine
has one which is passionately fond Of eating
and chewing tobacco. II given a sufficient
quantity the bird will make itself positively
drunk with the nicotine, and will stagger
about Its ca &c In exact imitation of the actions
OF an intoxicated human being. Long prac-
tlse has made the bird somewhat Of a con-
nolsseur respecting its favorite luxury. and
1t now treats 6ne cut tobacoos with contempt
Its particular delight is tho rum soaked plug
affected by sailors.
1t Is among the simian tribes that tobacco
loving auadrupeds are most frequent. This
| is probably owing to the monkeys over
| powering faculty for imitation. which soms-
times gets 1t into trouble. ! remember an
| amusing instance. man after pufflng at

a monkey which had been Watching the

1t up and pufred gravely for few minutes.
Then a look Of intense bewilderment stole over
Its face, and throwing the cigarette down II
retired into corner. evidently very i'll.
