Professional Artists, eEode1s.

Mr.. Dolph, the New York artist, said.
ave have all the models we need in New
York, and there are many excellent
female models. They charge from 81 to
So day, the hours being from o'clock
in the morning to 2 o'clock III the Ctter-
noon. The rates are about the same IN
Paris, with the difference that man VIII
often assist an artist about his studio and
even black the artists boots before the
hour Of going to work. Many models are
well posted as to pictures and costumes,
and when an artist desires a certain Co.'S
tune the model knows where he can get
It. When costumes are necessary for
picture an artist viii have to pay 81. so
a week for them I own the costumes
that use, and have about $1,000 invested
in them. The costumes of the characters
in that picture of a drinking scene were
purchased by me in Paris. They represent
the dress of the time of Louis XIII. That
leather coat cost me $50 and those boots
with wide tops were $25.
Munich is the paradise of models. Few
cities have more or a more varied assort-
ment. The pay is poor and the spectacle
of a richly-dressed model is seldom seen, )"
said an artist lately returned from Mu-
Mich. There are so many models that
an artist will frequently have four or five
visits a day from models desiring engage
ments. The ruling price there is about
10 cents an hour. The females are mainly
Germans, with a sprinkling of Italians,
Some of the poses are difficult, and one
cannot maintain the position more than
ten minutes. We painted six weeks on
one model of a man suspended from a
cross. 1t was a difficult pose and the
man was to be pitied.
Some of the well-known artists are
famous among models as exacting men,
who will endure no trifling Bougereau
is one of those A practical model will
soon learn an artists peculiarities, and if
he is easy going the model will soldier
and sag back from the proper pose in or
der to rest It is a severe task to pose in
one position an hour, as models in or
binary pastures have to do, and it is no
wonder that they shrink.
Animal and especially horse painters
are put to great expense for models. 1t is
customary to paint the horse standing
still in order to get the effect of light and
shade, and then watch the animal as it
gallops up and down the street in order to
get the position of each part. Its fore
legs serve as the fulcrum by which it
takes advantage of the law Of gravitation
in Iocomotion, and its rear legs serve as
propellers. The faster it goes the
straighter it projects its head in order to
give the air free access to its lungs, and
the wider it distends its nostrils, for a
horse never breathes through its mouth
in running

A Lunch by the wayslde.

Brakeman, inquired a passenger on
the Kankakee line as the train stopped
at Lafayette, chow long does this train
stand here2"
"Seven minutes There's the lunch
room across the street there.
In minute and half the bell rang,
the conductor shouted "All aboard, P"
and as the train moved swiftly out from
the station a man was seen running across
the street. Mud flew from his feet and
mince pie from his mouth. At his heels
barked a yaller dog, swapping for
the ham sandwich which the man
swung wildly in his left hand He at
tempted to shout for the train to stop, and
choked on a piece of bone in the pie, and
his voice was lost amid the rattle of the
wheels and the bowling of the dog The
passengers stuck their heads out of the
windows and smiled, while ladies waved
their handkerchiefs. Convulsively grasp
ing the hand-rail of the rear coach, he
hung on until the buttons were all burst
from his pants and the brakeman came
to his rescue. When that worthy had
succeeded in pulling him to the platform
he hitched up his pantaloOns, gasped for
breath and exclaimed:
"Why-why don't you gi-give man
time to eat his lunch2"
1--WE do, " replied the brakeman with
fine curl of sarcasm on his CoalsoOted
lip, "but we can't allow time for a passen-
ser to stop off and give street show.
There's some pie on your shirt-front, sir. "

Too Much Slang.

In these days of social, moral, and edu-
cational reforms there is one thing that
should engage the attention of parents and
teachers, and that is that more care should
be taken in the language of the growing
ones in and about the home circle. There
is too much slang used, the result of too
little attention as to the use of good and
bad language Grammars seem to have
been made for ornament, not use; the alb
brevations used by the youth of to-day
are denominations that should be wiped
out. There is great need for such re-
form in the parlor, the store-in fact in
every place where the young most do
congregate.

4 Subtle Poison.

The notorious NAPLES water employed
and sold freely by the woman Toffana, or
Tofania, was believed at the time to be
preparation of arsenic, and there was
another preparation of the same deadly
substance in use about the same time. 1t
was as clear as water, and five or six
drops would cause death, which, however,
would not be immediate, and of which
the best science of the day could give no
explanation. The woman Toffana is said
to have confessed to 600 murders by its
means, and is known to have used it with
immunity for half a century

Lost His Fear of Death.

When Mr.. Fawcett, the late postmaster
general, returned two years ago from the
door of death, he remarked that, whatever
else his illness had done for him, it had
at least freed him from the fear of death.
Like many men of robust physique, Mr..
Fawcett at one time entertained dread
that death would be preceded by fierce
convulsion-a vertiable death agony.
During his former illness, as he lay for
days in the last stage of prostration await
ing death, he felt entirely free from any
physical fear. The heart would simply
ceased to beat as watch that has run out
ceases to tick, and all would be over.
Death would be no wrench, but simply
the cessation. Such, at least was the
conviction which Mr.. Fawcett brought
back with him from the shadQwy confines
of the grave

Ventilation of Bedrooms.

The necessity for ventilating the bed
room may pe made very plain by a simple
experiment Weigh yourself before going
to bed, and then again in the morning
after rising. and you will find that you
have lost one or two or more pounds in
weight This loss is partly in water but
it is also partly in the car
bon of our food. These substances
have been burned up and their pro-
duct carboniZed-i e., with some ami
NAL matter have escaped into the air of
the bedroom. Now, if single ounce of
cotton were to be burned in the bedroom,
it would fill the air with smoke so as to
make respiration uncomfortable, and if
this were repeated every hour during the
night, even then it would not pollute the
atmosphere more than the breath of q
single Individual during the same time.
IF Two persons sleep in a room, they pol
Iute the air twice as much as when only
one sleeps in the same room.

A French Rogue's Expedient.

MI Poland the great London criminal
lawyer, was recently robbed of his watch
in the notorious French quarter of Lower
Soho He gave information to the police,
and was soon informed that the pick
pocket had been arrested with the stolen
watch in his possession. He went down
to Marlborough street to give his evidence,
and as he entered the door dirty French
man thrust letter in his hand 1t con-
tanned two sovereign, a two shilling
piece, and half crown-the exact con-
ventional fee for a barrister and his clerk.
With them was the following touching
appeal scrawled in the vilest handwriting:
you talk well; you will be generous; you
will defend me. 1t was only French
man who would have hit on this daring
expedient of retaining as his counsel the
man he had robbed.
