which made him famous, a group Of
the prettiest women in Paris gathered
around the new conqueror. None of
them were more bewitching than his
own sister, Paulette. When many
women were striving to reach high
station, Paulette had just one mission

She turned so many heads that the
account has been lost. Then Napoleon
forced General Leclere ts marry her.

But this could not last and he was

black-eyed, a siren If one ever lived.
Henry was vanquished. But Henri

about marriage. Henry demurred.
Then her family carried her of from

The QUEEN WHO BECAME

NTE THINK Of little Sweden today

died in 1892 and his six-year-old
daughter Christina became queen.
She was a strange child. She rode,

any girl and most boys in Sweden At
eighteen she took over control Of the
kingdom and broke Of & match which

Although it would have taken a

involved in difficulties and the power

found herself unable to stem the tide.
She was a king in name only. lacking
