The oars were of silver, and swayed in time to the soft throb of music. The sails were of purple silk and so riohly perfumed that their fragrance reached the shore. On @ divan, under a cloth-of-gald canopy that covered part of the deck, lay @ woman, red-haired, decked out {n priceless jewels and arrayed to represent Venus. Boys, dressed as Cupids, fanned her. On either side of her diva reclined courtiers, apparelled like mermaids, dem{gods and other mythigal personages. The red-halred beauty on the divan was Cleopatra, Queen of Rsypt. She was salling to Tarsus to confront a stern judge—Mark Antony, ruler of half the world. | Rome had grown mightily since the days of the early kings. It had ynow long been a republic. Julfus Caesar had strengthened and enlarged jthe State, making himself dictator of most of the civilized earth. He had been slain by assassins. Mark Antony, his closest friend, had formed a league with Octavius (Caesar's nephew), and together they had punished. the assassins and made themselves masters of Rome. Antony, the stronger af the two, seemed about to oust the young Octavius and selze the reins of |World-empire for himself. But while he was in the East something hap o~ @ pened that wrecked all his splendid career. Cleopatra, The “Judge” { Queen of Egypt, was aecused of having aided Caesar'a slayers.

At one of them Cleopatra dissolyed and drank a million-dollar pearl. They wandered (disguised as workman and chambermaid) into the slums by night. They pretended to be a god and goddeas and made their flatterers adore them as such. Antgn: enemies at Rome, headed by Octavius, made the most of ali this to en the farmer hero's power. Once or twice Antony was roused from his lethargy and, returning ta Rome, tried to forget Cleopatra. But always he hurried back to her. His wife was dead and he married the sister of Octavius. But he soon deserted her and rejoined Cleopatra. Lit tle by little all the fame and power he had won fell away from him. Finally Octavius, seeing that the dnce mighty leader was no longer to |be feared, declared war on him and Cleopatra. Then for a moment An- tony’s former martial genius flared up.
