MEDIEVAL history ended with the French

MEDIEVAL history ended with the French
revolution.
The French people overthrow the middle
ages in their own country, and the French
armies overthrow the middle ages throughout
the rest of Europe.
Napoleon's gigantic attempt to set up
tyranny failed and the attempts of the re-estab-
lished kings to revive the barbarism of the past
also were unsuccessful
The history of the last hundred years has
been the history of monarchy, organized and in
power, vanly attempting to stem the rising
flood of democracy and humanity.
The issues have been confused by race an
tagonisnn-by conflicting national interests.
But in the main the contest has been be-
tween king and people, as it really is today

Napoleon got his army together with sur

France, but from Italy and the provinces
of the Rhine BY March, 1913, he had a
force of about 100000 men on the way to
the Elbe. Next month he assumed COM

in him during the Russian campaign now
returned. News of Blucher's defeat of
Macdonald and other reverses seemed to
upset his judgment completely. and his
staff was convinced that he was breaking
down mentally.
By fall the allies with increased forces
were marrying his tanks. On October

a decisive battle was fought Bernadotte,

gave the signal for retreat. Then the
Bavarians deserted. and the French found
in their path a large force, including the
latest deserters. They made short work
of them and continued their retreat to
Mayence.

fought under Napoleon's banners. The
news of his defeat in Russia and OF the

The feminine readers of The Graphic
turn eagerly each day to fiad the
column which is being devoted to the
announcement Of the Home Science
Course which is to be held every
afternoon next week in Bluff Ciiy
Club hall under the personal super
vision of Kate B. Vaughn one OF the
most popular domestic science lectur-
ers before the public today. Women
! are coming more and more TO realize
that the business of running a home
is big one and they gladly avail
themselves of every opportunity to
learn new and more efficient meth
| o.s of running this business. The
announcement that Mrs. Vaughn, who
is well-known here, will have charge
of the home economics school which
is to be held under the auspices OF
the Graphic has attracted widespread
attention and many women have al
ready expressed their intention of
attending the school every afternoon
next week. There is no doubt that
this is the best way to get the full
benefit of this course of domestic
science and cookery lessons. While
each of Mrs. Vaughn's lectures is
complete in itself, they are all in a
manner connected, each one growing
logically out of the one preceding it.
All classes of housekeepers and cooks
are invited to take advantage. OF
this opportunity to hear and see
culinary expert and to taste some of
the good things she cooks, for all OF
the good dishes prepared by Mrs.
Vaughn in her domestic science
kitchen next week will be served to
her guests and those who have at
tended the cookery classes taught by
Mrs. Vaughn in other cities and
have eaten of the good things bounti-
fully provided there are most en-
thusiastic about her cookery.
Longs To Help
Mrs. Vaughn has made thousands
of housekeepers happy by the assist
ance she has given them in straight
ening out household difficulties and
unraveling domestic tangles. Mrs.
Vaughn believes that the happiness
of the home depends in a very large
degree on the efficiency of the house
mother and upon her ability to cook
