If you would be cheated out of your

The rosary business is one of tho

They are sent to the Holy City for

come into the shop to buy some rosaries
To carry back to his friends. He had

ones. and had paid the price without
bargaining AS the storekeeper wrap

out of the tail of his eye and saw
him slip. the rosaries he had selected
under the counter and put some cheap
or ones in their place. The Jesuit said
nothing, but he took up several beau

fixion ascension, each of which was
worth about twice the amount of the
rosaries he had picked out. Handing
these to the man, he told him to wrap
them in paper. and upon this being
done he took both parcels and started
out of the store. The Bethlehemite
merchant ran after him. and told him
he had not paid for the carvings. The

Maurice saw well how Isabella had

counteract her insidious morality and

succeeded in making her ashamed Of
her weakness in placing faith in such

NAPOLEON'S FAREWELL
The Most Dramatic Scene In the

The Most Dramatic Scene In the
History of FontainebIeau
1t was at Fontainebleau that Napo-
leon received the Pope in 1904. 1t was
at Fontainebleau that he imprisoned
the Pope-the apartment which served
as his prison is still shown-in 1872
and 1913. Finally, for Nemesis would
have 1t so, 1t was at Fontainebleau
that Napoleon signed his abdication
and said farewell to his army in 1914,
coming down the horseshoe staircase
at the head of Cour du Cheval Blanc
and placing himself at the head of the
guard as If for review.
For twenty years" he said, II have
been we'll content with you and you
have always been with me on the path
of glory. With your help and that Of
all the brave men who are still loyal

three years longer, but France would

Il might have died-that would have

to follow the path of honor and to
write the history of our exploits.
Il cannot embrace you all, but I will
embrace your general. Come, General
Petit Bring me the eaglel Dear

in every brave mans heart.

That surely is the most pathetic as
1t is also the most dramatic scene in
the whole history of Fontainebleau.-
