Cleopatra -Egypt's Queen
Won the Love of Two of the Greatest
Leaders Who Ever Lived.

resses? Yes, may be. So with q fair
for the dramatic, with = genius for
showmanship, she set out to meet An
tony in gilded ship with purple
sails. Surrounding herself with all the
pomp and pageantIy of the Arabian
Nights, she had little boys, painted as
Cupids, tanning her with peacock
feathers. while voluptuous maidens,
swathed in silk, danced to the wild
strains Of desert music. The fragrance
Of burning incense intoxicated the
senses; and, in the midst of all this
Oriental glamour Cleopatra lay on q
silken couch enchanting, irresistible,
posing as Venus the Goddess OF Love.
A rough, crude, vulgar soldier was
this man Antony, giving wild parties
and scandalizing even Rome. And
now, Cleopatra, a woman to the manor
born, creature of culture and re-
nnement, a woman who could quote
poetry, he'd become his mistress. His
passion for her brought into his bois-
ferrous life the first touch of beauty
and sublimity he had ever known and
1t inspired in him a devotion and
fidelity that commands our admira.
ton across more than 20 centuries.
Catered to Every Whim.
Cleopatra knew how to handle men.
She didn't nag about his manners.
She did everything he wanted to do.
She shot dice with him. hunted and
f1shed with him; and sometimes she
even disguised herself as a slave and
strolIed through the streets at night
with him, jerking chairs from under
people and playing wild pranks. Once.
when they were out fishing and An
tony complained because he didn't get
any "bites," Cleopatra had one of her
servants swim under the ship and put
q salt herring on Antony's hook.
Cleopatra catered to Marks stomach
and always kept q retinue of chefs on
constant duty, day and night, pre-
parng hot dishes, so that sumptuous
banquet could be served the instant
Antony desired it.
Antony became SO infatuated with
her that he lost all semblance of sense
He gave her the whole sea coast of
Phoenicia as a present. Then he made
her gift Of the province of Jericho.
the Island Of Cyprus, the island of
Crete. Finally as a grand climax to
all his lavishness he handed over to
her the whole province of Asia.
The news of these gifts set Rome
seething with hate and boiling with
1ury. What? Was all this territory
bought with q hundred battles and
paid Tor in Roman blood, to be tossed
away like a bauble to satisfy the
whims Of an Egyptian mistress? The
answer was war. Cleopatra's hour
had struck. She had overplayed her
hand. The day of awful reckoning
had come, and Rome rose in its
mighty wrath, destroyed the ships of
Antony and Cleopatra and routed
their armies.
Poison Method Mystery.
This was the end and they knew 1t.
Antony realized that he would be
captured and beheaded, 50 he stabbed
himself and died writhing in agony
in the arms Of Cleopatra, clinging to
her In death as he had chung to her
in life.
She vowed over and over again that
she would never be taken captive and
led through the streets OF Rome in
chains for the populace to hoot and
jeer At So she committed suicide by
poisoning.
