finely proportioned,a and disposed in an
easy and graceful manner. The arms
are folded across the breast, and the
fugers clasp a bunch of leaYes, re-
sembling oak, which are reproduced
with great fidelity to nature. The
figure is partially nude, mantle or
scarf crossing the breast and falling
over the loins in graceful folds. The
face is one of great strength and beau

decidedly Israelitish. The head is
covered with a winged cap or helmet.

Children are often puzzled by ques-

Germans and French we're petition

Presently, as nobody came, she turned
away from the window, and made slow
pilgrimage round the room. The cab
inets were full Of handsome old cbins
and old Indian curiosities, at which she
peeped in for moment, but saw moth
ing that interested her mich. At the
farther end door was standing half
open, and Mabel looked into small
room, with another door into the hall,
which was shut. The evening sun made
his way into this room round some COR
ner, and it was full of low. yellow light,
making it all the brighter in contrast
with the room beyond. This might have
belonged to a lady; there were little
tables and low chairs and looking-glasses,
some pretty water7colors ON the wall,
modern china and books, flowers here and
there.
Mabel advanced step or two, and
thought it the prettiest little room she
had ever seen. She wondered if the
General would let her spend her time
here. There was photograph-book
lying unclasped on the table near the
door, and she. opened it at the first page,
on which there were two portraits. One
was of a dark, young-looking man, whose
expression was anything but pleasant,
though his features were handsome. Ma
bel turned her eyes away from him. But
the other she thought charming. 1t was
of a lady, very much dressed, with frills
and necklaces and bracelets. She was
leaning her head on her hand, her lace
sleeve falling back from q very pretty
arm. Perhaps people more experienced
in faces than Mabel might not have felt
quite sure about this one, attractive as it
was. But she admired it thoroughly,
and thought it sweet face, frank and
pleasant, and almost beautiful The
lady was looking full at her, with a slight
smile, and yet great deal of earnestness.
Her hair was cut across her forehead, a
fashion which Mabel admired, having
never been allowed to adopt it herself.
She stood bending over the photograph
till General Hawke came along the
drawing room and Joined her, having
caught a glimpse Of her gown through
