France Fleury was made colonel Of
the regiment OF Pondichery, and a few
years later was promoted To be mare
chal de camp.
Dark days were dawning now In
France. days so dark that even the
blithe spirit of Francois Fleury must
have been affected. The land he loved
was entering upon that terrible period
OF blood and terror that makes up one
of the most awful chapters of the
worlds history. AS soldier Fleury's
duty was to the government. AS
nobleman his Sympathies probably
would have been with the old regime
had 1t not been for his republican
training in America.
In the days when France, after gull
lotlnlng the king. was assailed by
nearly all the powers of Europe, F'leu-
ry fought in the army of the north.
He was the same coed soldier of the
republic of France as of the republic
of the United States, But he was a
noble. and as such, in the reign of
terror. was under suspicion. No one
was safe Robcspicrre ruled, and he
was athlrst for blood. France was a
slaughter house. and men and women
were turned savage On the eth of
June, 1874. Francois Fleury. as CHEEKY
a soul and as brave heart as In all
that once smiling land. ascended the
scaffold. In the tumbril just behind
him was the Prince de Broglle, an
other nobleman who sought fame on

Across the narrow causeway the men
waded waist high in the tide. They
had not proceeded far when they were
discovered by tho pickets. In an in
stant the alarm WAS given. and soon
the roar of the British guns awakened
the echoes of the night. But no re-
sponse came from the Americans,
There was to be nothing that night
but the bayonet. From the causeway
one column swung to the right and
another to the left. Then the advance
guards tore away the outer abattis
and began the desperate climb up the
steep and broken promontory. Here

ably was unkind IN his judgment when
he said he did not look upon 1T as
loss when Ducoudray was drowned, on
Sept II, 1777, less than week after the
battle of Brandywine. Fleury prob
ably was the only one in the American
army who sincerely mourned Ducou-

character. were the warmest of friends.

INFLUENCE OF THE MOTHER

 Children.

IL IS hard for young mother. who has not yet overcome the wayward tendencies of her own youthful nature. to realize the influence she exerts over her little one. She is constantly surrounded by critical imitators who copy her morals and manners.
 As the mother is, so are her sons and daughters. If family of children are blessed with an intelligent moth CT, who Is dainty and refined in her manner, and does not consider it nee essary to be one woman in the draw ing room and an entirely different per 9oh in her everyday life. but who is a true mother and always a tender. charming woman. she will invariably sec her habits of speech and perfect manners repeated in her children.
 Great. rough men and noisy, busy boys will always tone down their voices and step quietly and try to be more mauneriy when she stops to give them a kind word and a pleasant smile. For a true woman will never fail tc say and do all inc kind. pleas ant things she can that will in any way help to lift mp and cheer those whose lives are shaded with care and toll.

Pennington was lying in state in his church. the statue vas unveiled at night by the donor and sculptor, Percy Fitzgerald.
 Today the bronze image of the worthy doctor may be seen looking down his beloved Fleet street. The stronglY-marked features and burly form, from the full bottomed wig to the firmly-planted shoes, have been faintly suggested by MT Fitzgerald with the air of Sir Joshua Reynolds,s portrait and the bust by Nollekens Boswell and Ms. Thrale have their place in the bas-reliefs on the pedestal.
 What DF Johnson would have said about this statue of him can be imag- ieed by any one who fes seen it. As a work of art the statue is an atrocity; and 1t seems most appropriate that it should have been unveiled at night. Furthermore, even the best examples of the sculptor's art, Johnson was apt 10 disparage. The labor consumed in painting. he once said. was not dis. proportionate to the result; but a fel- low might hack half year at block of marble and only produce something that hardly resembled a man. The value of statuary, he argued, depend ed solely on its difficulty.
 On the other hand. it might have pleased Johnson to know that poster fly would in a special way associate his name with a place of worship that be so regularly attended.
