( NAPOLEON TO JOSEPHINE. Prom tbo first Josephine was a heart-breaker. In girlhood 8he had one or two love affairs in Martinique. Then, while still in her teens, she married Vlscomte Beauharnais. The union was not happy. Her husband was beheaded during the French Revelation and she only escaped through winnning the heart of the all powerful Barras. Josephine waB 3 2 year8 of age when she met the young Corsican officer. Napoleon Bonaparte. She was the foremost love of his life. He adored her from the moment thoy met. She eared little for him, for there was little about him to attract women. But Barras told her the young Coral-j can had every prospect of a great' career, so Vith Barras as go between the marriage wa8 arranged. Bonaparte at the time was compelled to be away from Josephine frequently and for long periods, but no lovesick swain ever wrote more fervent love notes than the man who all but conquered the world Undoubtedly to the woman he married and later divorced for ambition's sakfel he gave all the passion of bia life. Three months before their marriage Napoleon wrote to Josephine as follows: i "I awakened this morning filled with thoughts of you. Sweet and incomparable Josephine, what a strange spell have you cast over my heart? When y ou are annoyed, or I see you sad and anxious, my heart is bruised with Borrow, and there is no rest for your lover, but is there more for me, when giving way to the deep feeling which masters me. I place on yourj lips, on your heart, a flame which burna me? You leave at noon; 1 shall see you in three hours. Till then, moi dolce amor, a thousand kisses, but don't give mo any, for they inflame) my blood". Thig was to Josephine, the betrothed. Five days after their marriage, when Nupooleon was compelled to leave her because of war's demands, ho wrote her from Chanceaux. March 14. 1796: ' ' Each instant separates me further from you. adorable one. and at each instant I feel that I hnvte less power to bear being separated from you. You are the perpetual object of my thoughts. Write to me, my tender love, and receive the thousand one kisses from the truest and tenderst of friends." Napoleon was ever jealous of Jophinc and her letters to him were never full of the fire that his disposition demanded. He became frequently piqued and this is shown early in their marriage, as early as one month following, when he wrote her: "The fear of not being beloved by Joaetphlne, the .idea of seeing her Inconstant, of her being?but I am making suffering for myself. There is so much that is real; must one manufacture more? You cannot have inspired a boundless love in me without sharing it, and with your soul, ycur mind, and your intelligence, you could not give in return for utter devotion, a death blow". When Napoleon was absent in Egypt campaigning he heard that Josephine captured the heart of Mr. P.liorKafi a mllltarv /lanHv Tn iaalnna fury he rushed back to Paris, swearing he would divorce her. Josephine wept and declared her innonce and she w&s forgiven. But never again did Napoleon love Josephine as before. In spite of her silly, insincere mind Josephine loved Napoleon, and when she died on May 24. 1814, her very last thoughts were for the ambitious man who had broken her heart. He had divorced her, seeking to strengthen his position by a more advantageous marriage?with Marie Louise of Austria. But he gave her an allw&nce of $400,000 a year and let press, but oddly enough Napoleon Bonaparte's star began to set from the moment h? divorced Josephine.
