The climate alone would have killed
| Napoleon. But in addition, the knowl-
edge that he was deprived Of his free
dom by what he called treachery, his
| feeling that he was abused by his cap
| tors, and the loss Of the companion
ship of his friends. all contributed to
the fatal effects of the disease which
probably had already sown its seeds
before he left Europe. Finally on May
5, 1921, five years and seven months
after he left England, Napoleon breath
ed his last in his bedchamber at Long
wood, on the Isle of ST. Helena.
On May 3, his remains were given Il
military funeral. The procession which
left Londwood passed the troops drawn
up with arms reversed, and as the
procession passed they fell in and fol-
lowed up in the rear. The cortege pro-
ceeded to Rupert's Valley, and there
beside a spring that Napoleon visited
frequently and for which he appeared
to have some love, he was buried. A
tomb was erected over his remains,
and in 1S40 his ashes were brought
back to Paris, where they were laid
after one of the greatest funeral pro-
cessions ever seen in Paris, in the
church Of the Hotel des Invalides.-

| Today widows do not eat rice or
drink milk. 1t is wrong for widow
in the Central Australian tribes to
speak. In India the British govern
ment has had the greatest difficulty
in preventing Hindu widows from

Indians of California where a widow
was killed for going out to gather
clover before 1t was proper time.
| Conscience may make curious de-
mands, but the demands always ex-
ist The lowest moral wretch has
depths of shame beneath which he
would not sink. The feeling Of duty
exists. 1t cannot be evaded.
A visitor from Mars might readily
figure that the greatest happiness
would come to the individual who
avoids trouble, shuns anything that
seems likely to engage his sympathies
and has nothing to do with adventures
for lofty ends. But human nature
doesn't work that way. Men are al
ways doing things that involve per-
sonal sacrifice without any hope Of i'm
mediate personal gain. They take
part in wars, they devote themselves
to causes they accept martyrdom-
and they find their highest happiness

The fact is that we are not isolated
| individuals, separate atoms in the
world. A child brought up alone,
with no social intercourse, would not

We can't draw a line and say, "On

terests always overleap. AS our con-
Germs broaden our real self enlarges
1t requires more to satisfy it. At

] actly the same interests that met our
needs at twenty.
The feeling Of duty, the imperative
command of the inner voice, the
sense of the Ought" is simply self
consistency 1t is the effort to work
out our own largest purpose. Some
of our interests are larger than our
family, larger than any small COM
munity, larger than any single life

what our largest self needs and what
we have come to feel il must have to
go on with it's purposes and realize its
deepest longings.
Sometimes we are mistaken in our
ideas of our needs. Sometimes the
! things we set our hearts on are trivial
or even bad. But they stand for what,
in our blindness we suppose is good,
and so duty, stern daughter Of the
voice Of God. appeals to us on their
behalf.
But doesn't the very fact Of the ex-
istence Of this larger self. reaching
out into the ocean Of life. beyond this
bourne Of time and place. hint at an
unseen world that we really build our
lives on? Don't we find that our ac-
tions imply that we belong to an or
der that extends beyond what our
senses reveal?-Kansas City Star.

retary, he began to write his memoirs.
These valuable papers began on this
voyage to the lonely isle in the South
Atlantic, were continued after Napole-
on's arrival at ST. Helena, and when
they were printed some years after his
death by order Of Napoleon III, were
found to be considerable. They amount
ed to about four bulky volumes. and
Illuminated to no little extent their
writer's wonderful career
Once on the island, ii became neCes-
sary to provide suitable quarters for
the distinguished captive. Napoleon
brought with him party, including
the wives and children of three Of his
suite, and the servants, of % persons.
Sir Hudson Lowe, who became gov
ernor of the island after the following
April, managed to irritate the party by
his attentions and by the end Of two
years there were few OF them remain
ing with the captive. Some had been
sent back to England, and others left
of their own accord.
The first dwelling assigned to Ma
poleon after his arrival was a small
structure about two miles from the
town, and known as the Briars. The
search for a suitable residence result
ed in the selection Of Longwood. at a
considerable greater distance inland,
and regarded as offering no opportuni-
ty either for escape or rescue, both of
which steps were regarded as eventu-
alities by the allies and the British
parliament.
Longwood was a kind Of summer
pavilion on a place at one time used
by the deputy governor Of the island.
1t is situated on a plateau in one Of
the highest parts Of the island. 1t is
constantly wind-swept, and although
mists nearly always obscure the sun,
the rays are so hot that vegetation
suffers.
Like Gagged Lion.
Napoleon felt like Gagged lion. The
efforts Of the governor to invite him
to dine, or to a dance only seemed to
irritate the captive. Once the govern
or, Sir Hudson Lowe, sent him as
present fowling piece. Napoleon re-
fused it with scorn, saying that it was
an insult to send him a gun where
there was no game. He also objected
to the fact that he was called General
Bonaparte, and he and his suite came
into conflict on the score of dignity
frequently to the effect that Napoleon
finally refused to allow Sir Hudson
Lowe to enter his presence.

There is Only ONE Best

Every man who has ever been
talked to by life insurance agent,
will, no doubt recall, that one Of the
claims that the agent made was that
the special company he was represent
ing at the time, was the BEST in the
business, and issued the most liberal
contract, etc. 1t Is a FACT that there
are a number Of good companies in
business today and that most Of them
issue very liberal contracts as COM
pared with those issued previous to
1906--before the great upheaval In
New York State, when laws were en-
acted that forced all companies that
should do business in that State, to
Guarantee in their policies what the
Mutual Benefit Life Insurance Com
pany Of Newark, n. j., had been Guar
anteeing Voluntarily for Many Years
Previous. 1t is a fact that the New
York law was based on the voluntary
practices of the Mutual Benefit and 1t
did not have to change word in its
contracts to comply with the law. II
has always, during the 81 years 1t has
been business. been recognized as the
leading policy holders company, and
is so recognized today. 1t is the Best
Company and issues the Best Policy,

- Columbia Record, Wednesday: That
the election in Sumter county on the
liquor question, held last August, is IL
legal and that the state board Of can
vassers was correct in declaring
the election void was the substance Of
an opinion by Associate Justice Hy-
drick handed down Wednesday in the
supreme court. On a motion Of the
petitioners, l.. d. Jennings, ]. II. Cliff
ton and others, a writ Of certiori was
court directed to the state board Of
canvassers requiring them to certify to
the court the record in the matter Of
the contests growing out Of this cleo
ton. The Sumter county board of can
vassers reviewed the contests Of both
sides and declared the result to be 40
votes for the sale and 466 votes against
the sale-a majority Of four in favor Of
the sale. The result Of the voting, as
returned by the election managers was
474 for the sale and 4S9 against the
sale-a majority Of Is votes against the
sale Both sides appealed from the
findings Of the Sumter county board Of
canvassers to the state board Of can
vassers. Hearing the appeals, the state
board found and declared that the ir-
regularities in the election were suff-
cient to affect the result, and that they
were unable to determine whether a
ma ajority were cast for or against the
sale, and that the election was illegal.
The form of ballot was held also to be
illegal From the findings Of the state
board of canvassers the matter was
appealed TO the supreme court on a
writ Of certiorari. The supreme court
of canyassers was sustained by evil
dence introduced, and dismissed the
petition Of the plaintiffs asking a re-
versal of the state boards findings In
it's opinion, the state board said: we
are unable to find that majority or
the votes cast at said election were
either for or against the sale Of alco-
holic Liquors and beverages. Said cleo
ton was so close that existing irregu-
larities are sufficient to affect the re-
suit, or make it doubtful and difficult
to determine. In fact, it is impossible
to do so, as we can not positively say
on which side each and every illegal
vote was cast; and when such irregu-
larities and illegalities are Of such
character and extent as to leave 1t
doubtful whether the result has not
been affected and especially when it
appears that illegal votes have been
cast. sufficient in number to affect the
result and the polls can not be purged
Of them, 1t would be trevesty on pop
ular government to sustain the cleo
ton, said Judge Hydrick in deciding
the Wright case, which opinion was
affirmed by the supreme court. This
within itself is sufficient to justify us
in declaring that there has been no le-
gal election expressing the will Of the
qualified voters"

TWO GREAT MYSTERIES
Star Lit Heavens Above and the Moral

1.-TWO things wrote Emmanuel
Kant, I'LL the mind with ever increas-
ing awe and admiration-the star-lit
heavens above and the moral law
within" His wonder might have in
creased if he had foreseen the results
of modern investigation into the GUS
toms Of savage tribes. No matter how
low and primitive the tribe. it has its
moral code which cannot be violated
with impunity.
Perhaps the code requires members
of the tribe to devour their dead par
ents. Then cannibalism becomes a
duty which must be observed. The
Australian bushmen regard it as wrong
to kill the animal which is supposed
to be the protector Of the tribe. In
old Japan it was right for man who
had been seriously affronted to kill
himself on the doorsteps Of the Of

the father. had led her into the be-
lief that they had been married in IL
linois through the courts" and had

husband. Rymer is said to have also
deceived members OF his own family
by sending them portraits of himself

EXPECT LARGE CROWD
TO GREET MARSHALL

Democrats will hold another rally
at the Oliver opera house tonight,
Vice Pres't Thomas r. Marshall being
the principal speaker. 1t is antici-
pated that as large and perhaps even
a larger crowd will hear the former
HOosier governor as that which at
tended the Shively- meeting
Wednesday night. The prominence of
the speaker and his relation to Indi-
ana voters is expected to attract mem
bers of other parties in addition to
democrats.
Immediately preceding the meeting
at the Oliver theater a parade, similar
To that conducted Wednesday evening
will take place. 1t is probable that
the automobiles Will make a tour of
the east side of the city and the prin-
cipal business streets. Arrangements
have been made for a band TO furnish
music for the occasion. The commit
tee in charge of the parade antici-
pates even more automobiles to par
ticipate than did Wednesday night.
This Will be the final big meeting
by the democrats before election, al
though a number OF ward rallies are
planned. Both Saturday and Monday
night speakers and county candidates
Will address meetings over the city
and county in behalf of the demo
cratic ticket. County Chairman Ru-

FIND THREE MISTAKES
IN MACHINE BALLOTS

Three mistakes on the machine
ballots for the election TO be held
next Tuesday. which might bring
about embarrassing complications if
not rectifed, were brought to the at
tention of County Clerk Frank Chris
toph, member of the board of election
commissioners, Friday. These mis-
takes were not discovered until after
all the machine cards and sample
ballots had been printed and deliver
ed and practically all the cards had
been placed on the machines over the
county.
Probably the most serious error
was that in the name of democratic
nominee for commissioner of the
western district The nominee for
this office is James w. Miller while
the machine card carried the name OF
John w. Miller" There is a man
by the name of John w. Miller re-
siding in the western district, but he
| is not a candidate for office. The
name of Arthur r. Wolf, democratic
candidate for auditor, was also mis-
spelled. an "e' having been added to
the last name. The name OF Matthew
is. Denaut, nominee for state repre-
| sentative on the progressive ticket
was spelled 'Danant.'
1t is probable that the election
commissioners, who are County ClerR
| Christoph, Lawrence ROmine and
| Cyrus Z. Pattee, will have small
| stickeTs prepared in order 20 rectify
! the mistakes. When the errors were
| discovered Friday morning there was
| considerable stir among the various
| candidates. the election commission
ers and others interested in the mat
ter.

statutory crime by Mrs, Minnie Evans
policewoman, were found guilty in
city court Friday morning and were

to have occurred in September, and
Brown before his case was called after
its first continuance, jumped his bond
and went TO Toledo.
His attorney and officers brought
him back To this city and after mis-
bond was raised from 500 to $500
he was placed in the county jail until
his case was disposed of. 1t was
brought out in testimony Friday
morning that he had persuaded Mrs.
Hawkins To come to Toledo while he
was there.
