Memories of Josephine.

Frogl the London Globe.
Now that Malmaison has reverted to the
French nation. possessors of objects once
associated with 1t all the world over are
showing themselves quite eager to restore
them to the place so inseparably associated
with the sad romance of Bonaparte's unfor-
tunate empress. The Bonaparte legend
may be dead enough: the Josephine legend
is not. Her harp Is the latest object to find
its way back.

not a more patient, orderly or
