Longwood Old House, the prison
home of Napoleon, Is about four miles
from Jamestown, the capital of SL
Helena. Dismally unattractive, the
place ia In about the same condition
that It was in the emperor's time. A
low rambling one-storied farmhouse,
once the dwelling of a peasant farmer
of the island, It is hard to connect the
place with the one-time master of the
Tuileries and Versailles. But Long
wood has an air of romance and mys
tery of its own. for it was the death
place of Napoleon.
The house is badly lighted and 111
ventilated. The rooms are tiny and
musty. The so-called billiard room
could never have held even the small
est table and the players at the same
time. The reception room into which
the emperor was moved when dying, Is
the pleasantest spot in the place, for
It boasts of more than one window. It
was in the space between the two win
dows that the death bed w’as placed.
Here today Is a bust of the emperor.
Visitors to Longwood sign the ancient
visitors’ book In this reception room,
while the aged guide tells the story of
Napoleon's last days.
Above the first floor are the garret
rooms, little more than cubby holes,
where former statesmen and marshals
of France lived during their exile with
their master. Outside is the tiny gar
den and the emperor’s favorite arbor.
Here Is the fishpool built by his own
hands. At the foot of the plateau Is
Geranium valley, and the emperor’s
tomb. It was by Napoleon’s own re
quest that he was buried here. The
famous willow tree of fiction and his
tory stlil shadows the emperor's tomb.

There Is not much mystery, or even
any at all, In the dislike of "experts”
that is fe|t and expressed by not a few.
The expert man Is a man who goes to
other men and tells them that the
way In which they are doing their work
is not the best way—that it Is a bad,
costly, or even stupid way—and that If
they will only listen to him and follow
his advice their work will be Improved
and their efficiency Increased.
None of us takes pleasure in hear

When Alexandre Dumas, the French
novelist, was a young man, he was
evously Insulted by a man whom he
ad regarded as his friend.
n Everyone expected him to punish the
«offender severely, but Instead he began
looking upon him with more consider
ation and apparent friendliness than
he had ever shown before.
At length, three years later, when
the erstwhile friend was to be married,
the novelist was asked to serve as best
man. and did so. When the ceremony
was over and the guests were leaving
someone remarked to Dumas: “I have
often wondered at your kindness to
