The course for the coming fall and |

spect. In the first place, it comes
from the Rice Bureau, which every
one here has learned to know sends
out nothing but the very best of tal-

course have been selected for this
season with a view, based on past
years of experience, to what this town

him at the head of the army in Italy.
I saw him crossing the bridge at Lodi
with the tricolor in his hand. I saw
him in Egypt, in the shadow of the
pyramids. I saw him conquor the
Alps and mingle the eagles of F rance
with the eagles of the crags. I saw
him at Marengo, at Ulm and at Aus-
terlitz. I saw him in Russia, when
the infanliy of the snow and calvary
of the wind blast scattered his legions
like winter’s withered leaves. I saw
him at Leipzig in defeat and disaster,
driven by 1,000,000 bayonets back up-
on Paris, clutched like a wild beast,
banished to Elba. I saw him escape
and retake an empire by the force of
his genius. I saw him upon the bat-
tlefield of Waterloo, where Chance
and Fate combined to wreck the for-
tunes of their former king. And I
saw him at St. Helena, with his
hands crossed Ebehind him, ga ng
out upon the sad and solemn sea. I
thought of the widows and orphans
he had made, and of the tears that
had been shed for his glory, and of
the only woman who ever loved him
pushed from his heart by the cold
hand of ambition. And I said I
would rather have been a French
1 peasant and worn wooden shoes. I
would rather have lived in a hut.
