Vandamme, who was to head OE the retreat near Kulm, a hundred miles to the north, the Emperor gave a. sharp cry, clapped his hand over his stomach, and doubled up completely, unable to think or. act.~ . Napoleon had the stomach-ache. You laugh at this; but let me tell you there is nothing more demoralizing than pain. ' wrecked more than one great cause. Men who can withstand armies have surrended to the toothache. Napoleon was never victorious on the sea, because he was always too sea-sick to command in person. Napoleon could not endure pain, and lost his crown througha. stomach-ache. For the cramp -- that caught him that day at Pirna kept him frOm pursuing his routed foes, and with that failure to act began the con- queror’ s downfall. At all events, he gave up his plan of- conducting the pursuit in person", He returned to Dresden. Disaster fell upon his generals whenever they fought with- out him. Oudiuot was beaten at Gross- beeren; Macdonald was overthrown at' Katzbach; Vandamme was captured at Kolm; Ney was routed at Dennewitz. The allies turned back.,, With fresh troops swelling their recovering ranks,’ they drew about the man they had sworn to destroy. His vassals forsook him; his tributar- ies deserted him. France was left all alone, and, yielding to the adviceof his, -‘ marshals rather than followinghis own. judgment, Napoleon gave up his plan of ' marching upon Berlin. His enemies drew about him; they inclosed him in a... ring of steel, and on the 16th of October, 1813, the Emperor and his men stood at bay under the walls of quaint old Liep— sic—a handful againsta host, That bloodiest battle of modern times has been called the Battle of the Na- tions. It was France against all Europe. For three days it raged. Ninety- -four thousand men Were killed or wounded. Then the Saxons 1n the ranks of France went over in a body to the enemy.

In Greece, in the days when men and women took better care Of their bodies than they ever have since, every boy, and girl. too, was taught, to run, just as the American child is taught to read. And as far as we can judge by the statues they have left behind them, there were very few hollow-chested; spindle-legged boys among the Greeks. The Persian boy was taught to speak the, truth, run, ride and shoot the bow. The‘English boy is enCouraged to run. In- fact, at some of the great English public schools, boys of thirteen and fourteen years of age, like Tom Brown and East at Rugby. can coversix and eight uniles cross—country in the great hare-and-hound runs. Every boy is turned out twice a week, out of doors, and made to run and fill himself full of pure fresh air and sunshine, and gain more strength and life than any amount of weight pulling or dumb-bell work in stuffy gymnasiums would give him. See the, result—the English boys, as a whole, are a stronger set than we Amer- ican boys. Every English schoolboy is to some extent an athlete. And that is What American boys should be. Not because football, baseball and tennis are valuable in themselves, but for the good they do in strengthening boys’ bodies. By playing ball every day for hours in the openair; by exercising his arms, back and leg muscles in throwing, bat- ting, running and sliding; by going to bed early and giving up all bad habits in preparation for the games, a boy stores up strength, which he can draw on all his life long—that is why every boy should be an athlete. But not every boy can play football or baseball. He may not be heavy or strong enough; he may never be able to acquirethe knack of catching or batting the ball. can become a. runner.-—-St. Nicholas. .- Why Thunder Storms Sour Mllk, During a thunder storm the electri- . city in the atmosphere accele1ates the conversion of the sugar in the milk to lactic acid, which conversion is the sour- ' 111g of the milk. The action of the electrified air upon ' the milk sugar may be explained, that the air contains more ozone, and there— acts more oxidizing; or- it may be that the microbes in the milk, which are the medium for the conversion, are re« freshed by the electiicity and thus made more active; or it may boa simple elec- trolysis of the milk sugar. _ Decadence of the Horse. Our former invaluable friend—the horse—that looked on the bicycle as the forerunner of his coming doom, will doubtless 'feel that doom sealed by the reports Of the race of horseless car- riages in France. The steed of the future for uses of both pleasure and labor, Will doubtless be an automanton, driven by, electricity and managed by a touch. Yet with all the advantages of such a system there will be something missed even by the unsentimental in thephonest affection and unquestioning loyalty of our dumb living servants. —letimore American.
