Napoleon’s Bad Manners.

Napoleon was rude. His manners were coarse, and when at table he ate as fast as he could chew and swallow, shoveling the food into his mputh with his knife and using his fingers whenever they came into more convenient employment. When talking to his officers he often; as a friendly favor, pulled t/heir whiskers or pinched their ears. To women he was almost invariably offensive, sometimes uttering language so coarse as to bring a flush of shame to their cheeks and tears to their eyes.
