(Part II) lawyer to plan a world empire, nowadays, would be sheer Insanity. But in Napoleon Bonaparte's time and country almost anything was possibly to the man who knew how to use his chances. Tavern waiters became field marshals; servant* rose to dukes. For the tlrst time in France's LL>tory it was the man, not his ancestry, that counted. Bonaparte, being the greatest genius In France, rose highest In the mighty upheaval that followed the overthrow of old customs. Haying, as first consul, set matters to rights at home, he drew sword against all Kurope. Heretofore long, time-wasting campaigns and acres of red tape had marked every war. Bonaparte changed all this. Whirlwind campaigns and defiance of all outworn military traditions formed the keynote of his warfare. On May 13t 1800, he hurried an army across the Alps, captured 'Piedmont by a brilliant victory over the Austrlans at Marengo, June 14, and dictated peace terms to Austria. Other countries, scared by the example, followed suit, and, for the first time In many years, universal peace seemed established all over the civilized world. Meantime, in France, Bonaparte was forwarding his personal ambitions to such good effect that, when the project of crowning him emperor of the French was broached, it was carried by a popular vote of 3,000,000 to 8,000. He sent for Pope Pius VII to crown him at Paris amid Imposing ceremonies, December 2, 1804, but at the last moment he snatched the Imperial diadem from the pope's hands and crowned himself. He then placed the crown on the head of Josephine, his wife. The following year he became king of Italy as well. And now came a change of character so remarkable as to support the old rumor that Bonaparte the general and Napoleon the emperor were two different men. From being shy. lean and silent, Napoleon grew assertive, fat, talkative. The rigid, temperate simplicity of early days gave way to court etiquette, pomp and imperial splendor. His court was brilliant and extravagant. Jgngignd, resenting certain «f France's annexations declared w%r, and Napoleon prepared to Invade Great Britain. But Russia, Austria and Sweden formed an alliance with England and the plan was changed, jtfapoleon, with 180,000 men, crossed Bavaria, took Vienna ana met Ine combined Austrian and Russian armies at Austerllts. Bach of |he tly^e £rmles was Commanded "by an emperor. After a long and bloody battle Napoleon defeated the allies with fearful loss. He then thrashed Prussia st Jena and Auerstadt and captured Berlin. Russia's army was marching to Prussia's aid, but Napoleon met and ovei whelmed It at Frledlasd, June 14, 1807, and forced the czar to sue for peace. Be nesrt conquered Bpaln and Portugal, and extended his conquests throughout the continent of Burope. He made his brother king of Bpaln and his brother-in-law king of Naples, and lavished similar royal, honors on others of his family. Spain, dissatisfied that s low-born Oorslcan should rule it revolted. England and Portugal allied themselves with (he Spaniards and the "Wax of .the Peninsula" began; the English amy being commanded by Sir Arthur Wellealey, afterward duke of Wellington. Austria took this time to rise against Napoleon. The emperor hurried an army across the frontier and inflicted a crushing defeat on the Austrian host at Wagram, July 6, 1800, and dictated humiliating terms of peace to the beaten country. Nearly all the world was now at the Oorslcan genius' feet. Yet he was ft* from satisfied. He saw that be held his sovereignty through Sheer strength; Austria's action had taught him that the instant his back was turned the beaten nations would spring at him like wild animals at their trainer. He knew that, even while kings and countries cringed to him, they secretly despised him as an upstart. Only so long as he could overawe foes by active, aggressive power could he hope to retain his mastery. He had no son to Inherit his title. Moreover, he now saw his boyish mistake in having married a stupid woman of the people. He had long since outgrown his early adoration for the fickle Josephine. He calmly proceeded to, divorce her, and on March 11, 1810, ne married the Archduchess Marie Louise, daughter of the emperor of Austria. The proud Austrian monarch had no choice but to submit, and to sell his daughter for the sake of his country's welfare. Marie Louise cared nothing for her Imperial bridegroom, and In his later days of adversity promptly deserted him. They had one son, who, while in his cradle, was proclaimed king of Home. This son died of consumption at twenty-one. The years 1810 and 1811 marked the flood-tide of Napoleon's prosperity. His dominions extended from Naples to Denmark. He was proclaimed ruler of Bpaln, Italy, Switzerland, Holland and most of the German states. Rus Bin Austria and other nations were at his feet England alone held out against him. Never before or since has such tremendous authority been vested to one man.

JOHN BOYLE, 6-2 Highway Commissioner; OUR ADVERTISERS OFFER YOU MANY MONEY-SAVING VALUE x , uLi.jiiiiiuiiii iiiqnn9i!i>uiMi -- Anatomy of One Reel Comedy e ^ 'J* Br MNQ LAltlMrapl To the Editor: In a recent letter I give my readers the story of a friend of mine name Joe Cooper that was not getting along •0 good In his regular Job and finely began to take correspoqdence courses by mail In other lines like short-story writeing and expert acct and cartoonist and etc, and after a wile he got so as he was knocking out close to 50 thousand per annum for his spare time. ^ Wile theys still another field yet that Joe hasn't went In It and that Is writeing photo plays and great big money is promised for good ones because god knows they are a rare bird and if they Is some of my readers that finds trouble makelng both ends meet the other and could use a couple 100 thousand a year extra earned in their spare time, why here 1s the field to go into. 7ou can pick up most any magazine and find a dozen ads of correspondence schools that learns you how to write photo plays or movies as 1 have nicknamed them, but how are you go- Ing to knew that the people that runs tliem schools has ever wrote a photo play tbemselfs and for all as you know you may be paying your tuitions to a bird that ain't done anything all their life but pluck pimples off a putting green. So In order to protect my readers from these kind of vipers I have made It up In my mind to start a school of my own along these lines and my qualifications is that I have wrote 2 photo plays and they both flopped like the sure thing and my system of teaching will be to learn my pupils to write photo plays opposite to like I wrote.
