Jusserand's Tribute

A very eloquent Frenchman, Ambassador Jusserand, has paid this handsome tribute to the American army in France: “A valiant army, the praise of which is on every lip; a youthful, goodhumored. cheery- .army, whose every soldier is welcome in castle or hut, and is offered just as heartily the best cake or the last crust; an immense army that grows ceaselessly—month after month you-senFover-donble-the number of men Napoleon had at W aterloo. Many French names written on your map recall our prjjseilt-e here at the time of your fight for independence, chief among them that of Lafayette. Many American names will in aftertime recall the splendid part you are taking in the deliverance of France and of the world.”—Youth’s Companion.
