I "No, sire, not with you."

"Then why should iliey not be forgotten by

, "Yuu misunderstand me, lady,", lie said,
quickly rising from Lis-eat and leaning against

but everything for France."
"Is it for France, Napoleon," s!.s said, draw*

Napoleon gazed almost in terror at her who
stood like a prophetess gazing out with eyes of

clouded almost to sickness, he turned away and
and left the room without h word.

Mr. Henderson said thai if no State govern
