erandee of the first class and was
presented with fine estate.
Portugal hailed him as the Duke of
Victoria, marques OF Torress Vedras
and count of Yimiera. After Water
loo the British Parliament purchased
for the duke the estate of Strath-
| fleldsaye at cost of $260, 200. The
king of the Netherlands, grateful for
the restoration to his throne, created
the victor prince of Waterloo and
presented him with large estates.
Other distinctions included the Orders
of the Garter and Golden Fleece and
the rank of field marshal in eight
European armies.
! Marlborough is remembered as the
only other British general to attain
the rank of duke-won in the war of
the Spanish succession. Blenheim
palace, the estate of Woodstock and
a pension of $4,000 year were the
tokens of the country's appreciation.
A foreign title, that of Prince Min
delheim, represented a further tribute
to mis- prowess.
Elevation to the peerage has long
| been the form of rewarding the most
distinguished military service. and
, the roll of the house of lords has
been enriched by the addition of
many illustrious names. In no quar-
ter of the world have these titles
been won so frequently as in India.
One thinks of Robert Give, to whom
we owe very largely our possession
of that great dependency. For his
tvictory at Plassy Give. received the
somewhat inadequate reward of an
Irish barony. A later genera ton felt,
/ apparently, that something more was
due to his memory, for his son was
advanced to the earldom of Fowls
At later date Sir George Harris
won peerage for his conquest OF
Mysore. The Sikh wars of the early
forties of the last century, resulting
in the annexation of the Punjab
brought viscounties to Sir Hugh
Cough, the British commander, and to
Sir Henry Hardinge, the governor
general. Hardinge, peninsular hero
and grandfather of the present vice
roy, showed fine spirit by accept
ing service under Cough as second in
command. Cough received a pension
of $1,000 a year. to be continued to

Honors for Balkan .Victors

History provides many precedents
for the handsome rewards which. we
may be sure, will be accorded their
generals by the Balkan states
The triumph the highest honor
known to the Romans, was not lightly
given. The victor must have attained
certain rank; the war, definitely con-
Guided, must have effected the extern
sion of the state boundaries; at least
5000 of the enemy must have been
slain. Granted these conditions, the
streets were dressed with garlands
and amid applauding crowds drove
the general, seated in a four-horse
chariot. ROBBED in purple and gold
and crowned with laurel, he held in
his right hand a laurel branch and in
his left an ivory scepter.
The records of modern warfare con-
tain nothing more romantic than the
story of Napoleon's marshals. Men
of the humblest birth, they joined the
French army as priyates. Yet, by
virtue of genius which still dazzles
the world, they conquered Europe
Napoleon, whose success was largely
their creation. was prompt and lavish

dukedoms were showered upon these
sons of peasants. Two of their num-

and Sweden. His descendant is to-

garet of Connaught. The titles con-
ferred upon the marshals did not
lapse with the downfall of Napoleon.
Several are borne today by their sue
cessors. In some cases the marshais,
so far from suffering indignity, were
created peers of France long after
their leader had gone TO st. Helena.
II was the ablest of these Illus
trious men whom wellington was
called upon to combat in the penin-

are familiar with the names of Mas

Rivoli (who began life as a cabin
boy), and of Soult, Duke Of Dalmatia.

victors on so many fields, and finally
against their master, accounts FOL

EVIL SPEAKING

If YOU wish your child not to ac-
auire the habit of evil speaking you
must form the resolution never to
deal lightly with the reputation of
another; never to repeat Islander;
always to exercise that charity which
you wish your child to show toward
the erring.
Without this course upon your part
all yourecounsels will be as naught
If you delight in dwelling upon the
faults Of others, If you put aside the
mantle of charity that should be
made to cover the infirmities of your
friends, your example will nullify
all your teachings, and your admoni-
tons will be worse than lost.
