has upset in crossing from one

down on couches, in those days.
There's your picture: Young
Alexander, with his yellow curly
hair and blue eyes, laughing above
the fallen body of his father. He
laughed over the body of many
another great one, later on.
Another picture would show that
Cleopatra made mistake when
she got in the way of fierce Olym-
pias. Philip is murdered in the
midst of festivities arranged for
the marriage of his daughter,
Alexander's sister, to her own
uncle, King Of Epirus, nephew OF
Olympias. A vengeful soldier did
the killing. Alexander and his
mother both got the credit for in
stigating.
Without loss of time, Olympias
had poor Cleopatra's baby killed
in its mothers arms, and forced
the young woman to commit suicide
by Tightening a cord on her neck:
The Sultan Of Turkey was fond Of
that method until lately. He
would send a eunuch with a silken
cord to a faithless wife, or false
minister. That meant: "Choke
yourself"
A striking picture, that killing
of Philips baby, to make sure
Alexander should have no rival to
the throne, but his own half-witted
full brother.
A few years after being dead,
Alexander, his only son, and his
mother, the beautiful Roxane, were
also slaughtered, as Caesars boy,
Caesarian born of Marc Antony's
Cleopatra, was to be murdered
later. Probably the killing of
Alexander's son was fortunate for
the world. 1t allowed Alex Hder's
great general, Ptolemy, founder of
the Egyptian dynasty, to attain
power, permitting development of
the philosophical and scientific
schools of Alexandria that taught
the world, as Alexander had con-
quered it.
Many other pictures are in that
most exciting of fighting lives.
