NAPOLEON'S name illl.s more pages in the world's solemn history than that of any other mortal. This famous painting shows liiin a captive, on
board the English 'ship ISclIcrophon, gazing out across tho solemn soa toward France, where he was once Emperor. He realizes that his
dream of Universal Empire Is at an end, yet is unconscious that he is sooon to bo banished like an outcast a thousand miles from shore to the
lonely and barren rocks of St. J Menu. This famous picture from Hidpath's History illustrates but one event 'out of thousands which moke
up tho history of every empire, kingdom, principality and power, all accurately and entertainingly told in the world-famed publication.
