in unity there is strength. The Warrior and the Peasant A LITTLE while ago I stood by the grave of the old Napoleon—a magnifi-cent tomb of gilt and gold, fit almost for a dead deity. I thought of theorphans and widows he had made—of the tears that had been shed forhis glory, and of the only woman who ever loved him, pushed from his heart bythe cold hand of ambition.
