James Seymour, the artist, was born
In London in 1902. He displayed a
fondness for drawing and painting in
boyhood and subsequently gained ce-
lebrity by his skill in designing horses.
Once the proud Duke OF Somerset en-
ployed Seymour to paint room at his
seat in Sussex with the portraits of his
running horses. Having admitted the
artist to his table, he one day drank to
him, saying:
Cousin Seymour, your health"
The painter replied, MY lord | real
ly believe that | have the honor of be-
ing Of your grace's family"
This hurt the pride OF the duke so
much that he rose from the table and
ordered his steward to pay Seymour
and dismiss him. Finding, however
that no one in England could complete
the pictures begun, he condescended to
send for his cousin. The painter re
sponded to the message in these words
my lord, | will now prove that am
Of your grace's family, for l won't

old man who had been a servant at

told many interesting stories.

Tho Re,rss. From MOSCOW.

Napoleon's army for the invasion Of
Russia numbered over 100000 Only
10000 returned. During the retreat
thousands Of horses lay groaning on
the route. while thousands OF naked
wretches were wandering like spec
ters who seemed to have no sight or
sense and who only kept reeling on till
frost, famine or the Cossack lance put
an end to their power Of motion. In
that wretched state no nourishment
could have saved them. Innumerable
logs crouched by the bodies Of their
former masters, looking at their faces
and bowling their hunger and their
loss. Besides their suffering from the
cold and for the want of food, they
were assailed on all sides, not only by
Russian soldiers, but by peasants
through whose country they passed.
Altogether. Napoleon's retreat from
Moscow was a complication of misery.
Of cruelty, of desolation and Of dis
order that can never have been ex.
ceeded in the history Of mankind.

Here is a strange yet absolutely true

rious part: 1t was a small American
timepiece which stood on a mantel-
piece in sitting room in Liverpool

the timepiece fell from the mantelpiece
to the floor. When picked up it was
found to be quite uninjured and still
going, as if nothing unusual had hap
pened. There seemed to be absolutely
no reason why 1t should have fallen.
but an hour later when the builder
came home to his midday meal he re-
marked that at 11:30 he fell from the
top of building, but happily without
sustaining any injury. His wife then
described how the clock had thllen at

There is always more or less talk
current about abolishing position and
dispensing pelf. The trouble is to
know just where to begin the destruc-
tive reconstruction and to find reform
ers who are willing themselves to be
reformed. An English great lady was
once entertaining the Labor member
Of parliament, Henry Broadhurst, the
Duke of Argyle and others at her coun-
try seat. She was a strong Liberal,
and one evening inveighed against the
house of lords. 1t would be swept
away if it did not reform, she said
