Under the title OF "Virlities," collec-
tion Of sayings Of Napoleon | has just
| been published in Paris Here are some
Of them:
A man never rises so high as when ht
does not know where he Is going.
A fool has one great advantage over
man OF intelligence. He Is always pieaseo
with himself.
Generals who keep fresh troops for the
morrow of battle are always beaten.
| Abstractions wear out the heart far more
! than the most brutal facts. Soldiers are
/ worth more than lawyers.
Il Courage is like love. II lives on hope
Those who can no longer be rewarded
must be disgraced.
Republics are not made out OF old mon
arches.
! A revolution is an opinion supported by
/ bayonets.
