beauty that he forgot his own trouble and
gloom in looking upon the angelic face before
him.

for my studio. Win you come to my room

The little boy was glad to 60 and see the
pictures and pencils and curious things in the
artists room, and he was still more pleased
when he saw what seemed to be another boy
looking Just like himself smiling from the
artists canvas.
The artist took great deal of pleasure in
looking at the sweet, innocent face. When
he was troubled, or irrtated, or perplexed,
he lifted his eyes to that lovely image on the
wall, and its beautiful features and expression
Gained his heart and made him happy again
Many visitor in this studio wished to pur-
chuse that lovely face but though poor, and
often in want OF money to buy food and
clothes, he would not sell his good angel as
he called this portrait.
