Should Another Napoleon Arise?

norance and unrest prevailing in Rus
sia, and th babc-i and intestine strife
o: the Aus'roHungarlan empire, pre
clude the idea c: a Slav. Czech or Mag
yar Napoleon. Italy. Spain and Eng-
Izni are equally unlikely to produce
.3 successful military trant. and we .
. theretore assume that the Napoleon of
the future w:ll be a German soldier,
The first task of a German Napoleon,
after completmz nis career o: con
quest on land, would be the subjuga
tion of England by the organization of
sea power. The destruction of Brit
ish sea ;ower would be to a modem
Caesar an imperious necessity. Na
poleon placed commerce behind agri
culture, which he considered to be
the basis of national health
and '

AN ATMOSPHERE OF HEALTH.
Preservation cf Most Precious Boon
Not a Hard Matter.
Talk health before the lit lie ones.
Also live and act normally. This
world, bad as it may be. has much
good in it. Humanity is so valuable
that the Sav.or died for its redemp
tion. The child must live his life :n
the wond and with his fellow man.
Education is to teach him how to re
late himself to both so as to get and
give goodness and happiness.
The inteilietnt. loving parent is ?.l- !

of the contagious diseases, such as
measles, whooping cough, scarlet
fevtr. diptheria. etc . are most fatal
-i iue iiisi uve years oi me. ui
measles more than half the deaths ,
occur under 5 years of age. In i
whooping cough the death rate under .
2 years often reaches su per cent. ,
There is also the same percentage in
scarlet fever and diphtheria.
la healthy children after 10 years
of age the death rate and seventy of
these diseases !e-sen very nmh.
After children are sent to school it ,
is not always possible to ke-p them
from exposure to contagion, but while i
they are at home it requires but the ,
proper sanitary precauTioas on the '
part of the parents to kp t&em '
from those infectious disorders until
infancy and early childhood are pass

Often the writer has seen ' the
nursing baby die from whoopinir
cough, scarlet fever cr measles when
its older brothers ard sisters were
scarcely i!! enough to :ro to bed.
Tuberculosis is also easily con
tracted in early life. It ma- be of

When Port Arthur fell the Japanese

Underneath. wri"en in the Russian
language, was the legend: "Port Ar

the happy new year we have the honor
to announce this with hearty greet

Liuchangtun. AtSxed to the tail was a

Complirr.snt to Irish Race.
James Russell Lowell and Prof.
Mahaffy met for the first time at z
friend's house in Birmingham, Enir-

"Well, that's one of the most delight

did so. and Mahaffy received the com
