HEROIC VETERANS Napoleon's Famous Fighters, the Imperial Guard. LIVED UP TO THEIR MOTTO. Even at Waterloo the Survivors of the Old CoiatNi Fought The Way on Their Retreat and Nose Surrendered. Their Shameful and Pathetic End. ' Probubly- no housebeld aliope or bodyguards in the world ever acbievetl the reputation of Napoleon's Imperial guard, and they had their origin in a manner that shows tbat imperial guards, like inventions, generally are often mothered by necessity. It was during his elilan campaign. in the days of the republic, while Na- poleon was still General. Boutlparte. that the Austrians nearly captured the Little Corporal. If they had succeeded probably the whole history of Europe would have been different and Water- loo would ee still waiting for a reputa- tion. He was passing along the bank of a river with a small escort lent from the divisions of Auguereau and alassena. An Austrian corps was hastening up the banks of the same stream to join Beau- lieu. After General Bonaparte had rid- den some distance in company with Au- gueresu he then returned to Valeggio, where he stopped. Ile had been suffer- ing from headache and believed that a foot bath would effect a cure. So during his stop he pulled off his boots and sought to bathe his feet at a house in the village. While he was thus engaged the Austrians appeared They came so rapidly that there was scarcely time to sound an alarm. How- ever, the alarm was sounded, the gate; of the carriageway closed, and the post began to make adefense. Pulling one boot on one leg and fear- ing to spend the time to boot the oth- er, Bonaparte rushed out through a back way and thus made his escape on his horse. He rushed as hard as bis horse would carry him to Messina, and, although bis troops were at mess, they were quickly gathered and start- ed oil after the Austrians. who, wben they were met, were forced to flee. But tbe experience taught Napoleon a lesson. He found that it was perfect- ly possible for a commanding officer to be taken prisoner witb comparative else. and be soon found n way to make this more difficult. He organized a command, at first ealled guides, whoseprineipal duty was to protect the commanding officer. By degrees this body was increased, and under tbe consulate it was known as the Garde- Consuleire, receiving that title in Me. At tbat time it consisted of 13775 men and was a mere body of household troops, although naturally with a man like Napoleon it was a combatant force and not for ornamen- tal purposes. In 1304, witb the creation of the em- pire, this body became the Imperial guard. It .grew in size and importance, and in 1809 it was divided into the Vielle garde and tbe Jeune garde. It Was a place of honor. To be admitted the soldier must have served in three campaigns. Consequently it was known as the elite of the imperial troops. Ev- ery man was a veteran. It could be depended upon to do its utmost. ID 1814, wben Napoleon abdicated for the first time, the Imperial guard had been increased to 112,482 men of all branches of service. It was owing to tbe fact that this army, called the imperial guard, was composed of veterans, men who had seen service and were old campaigners, that Napoleon believed them to be un- conquerable. The brunt of battle al- ways had to be borne by the imperial guard. alley consequently were al- ways fearfully cut up. Only a rem- nant of the guard returned from Rus- sia, and at Waterloo their ranks were cut down until few of the old -guard remained. It was their motto that the old guard never surrenders, and those who were able to walk away from the battlefield at tbe foot of Mont St. Jean fought their way on their retreat, and none surrendered. .After Waterloo the old guard was treated shamefully. As many as could be caught were court martialed, and the remainder were regarded as so many banditti. General Lallemand brought 200 of them to America and with them founded a colony in Texas, then not United States territory. This settlement. which was unsuccessful, was named Champ d'Asile, or Field of Refuge. The Mexican government compelled them to leave, and they next sought refuge at Galveston, but again were made to move on, and finally, after a few months, the 47 of the 200 that survived arrived in New Orleans. They came here in 1818, and it was not until 1820, when there were only a few survivors, that a sum of 80,000 francs reached the exiles. -Exchange. Saturday was the last day of busi-. nese transacted in Merner's stare un- der the name of J. J. Merner. Mr. Merner has been connected with the mercantile business in the village of Zurich for many years and in that time has made many warm friends in Pis dealings with tbe people. The store has been closed for a few days this week owing to stock taking and when opened will be in the naive of the new owner, Mr. T. L. Wurzel. c'PERT PARAGRAPHS. If we pay for pleasure in agony a fine case of neuralgia must mean that there is a high old time coming to us. The woman who daily makes al- lowances for her husband should be re- warded at least once a week by receiv- ing one from him. If the eight of understanding were suddenly to pour out upon some hearts an amazing lot of old juilh would be revealed. Our consciences are not ant to be overfatigued by the way we work them in forgiving oar enemies. .lG.�l9.SA�:I�As3l�lLl.��A�,l�i Toronto, • •. r ...,t(>ss rr CAST OR.I',l it Butler and Bishop.

TF overeating is the cause Of most our human woes The danger isn't very great For me. you may suppose, For at the modest boarding house, To which each meal 1 turn, If there is anything in that We should have health to burn. If men get gout and rheumatiz Because they live too high, Appendicitis and such things. From which they almost die. I do not think I stand a chance To pay a doctor's bill Because the feed. while there is some, Is almost net to nil. It used to be quite high enough Before the era when In any little grocer shop To turn round cost you ten. But since they've ceased to give you change. No matter what you buy. The groaning board has ceased to groan, Its weight is far too shy. And so since tnere is hardly food Enough to shovel in We revel in the choicest health, And that is how we win. No chance to corner a disease; No danger on that score. I wonder, though the price is high, They do not charge us more. Knew It Did Not Look Well.
