travels he may have stood uncovered
within the classic shelter of Sans
Souci where Potsdam unites the ven
Grated dead with the virile living,
but as he looked upon the lean and
severe outlines of Frederick the
Great | fancy there was a sort of con-
descending compassion which caused
him to feel that Frederick had died
too young. His rugged figure may
have bathed in the ineffable light
which 1llumines every atom of silence
in the tomb of Napoleon; his sibilant
voice may have stilled in the hush
which breathes the memory of mill
tant France, but as he leaned over
the balustrade that guards the sacred
Siberian porphyry and calls up the
thrilling scenes of life of the Little
Corporal I dare say there was not
battle, from Lodi to Ligny, from Aus
terl1tZ to Waterloo, which he could
not have met and won. He may have
paused in the pulseless air of ST.
Pauls and gazed upon the funeral
car of the Iron Duke, wrought from
trophies taken by that illustrious war
riOr, but there is no doubt, were it
possible for the living to speak to
the dead, he would have pointed out
how Waterloo could have been ended
at the Chateau Hougoumont. He
may have stood at that very conges-
ton of immortals, Westminster Alb

the assembled riches of England's il
lustrious dead, but no patient poet

churchman could have spoken from

dead He may have enjoyed the
placid surroundings of the scholarly
Sorbonne and reioiced in the distinc-

height of letters and learning, but

OF this classic center could restrain
him from urging an immediate in
crease in the families of France. He
stood in stately Guild Hail. garner

ancient years, and while they, with

From Africa to Oxford, from the
wild reaches of the valley of the Nile
to the gentle slopes of the tender
Thames, he did not meet a savage or
a savant, rhinoceros or a regius
professor, an elephant or an elemen-
tary principle which he did not at
once endeavOr to reduce to his own
strenuous standard. From the voice

from the palace of the Khedive to

with a civilized principle which he
did not amend.

local physicians said was only what

a number of physicians have to be
called before One-can be found to re-
spond instantly.
