AN ARTISTS ADVENTURE.

How He Came Near Running One Of
the Worlds Greatest Paintings.
The old and curiously paradoxical
advice: BE bold. be bold. be not too
bold" is sorely needed at some crisis OF
our lives Irving Montagu. an Eng
lish war artist. says that he spent o
great deal Of time during his early
training at Marlborough house. where
he covered innumerable canvases with
ambitious copies Of great pictures.
On ono occasion several art students
were strolling with me about the de-
serted passages Of the house. when /,
being of an impulsive turn Of mind,
penetrated what seemed to me q dark,
capaciOus cupboard The others in
stantly shut the door. which fastened
with spring. and raa of to continue
their work in the galleries. Thus i'm
prisoned. / remained patient enough at
first but when half-hour had elapsed
the situation began to pail on me. and
set about some means OF exit
l commenced by slowly feeling and
pushing against the walls round about
me. Greatly to my relief the back
part Of my prison-house proved rs flex-
ible as il the paper Of the adjoining
room was only strained across it on
canvas
An idea struck me; nothing could be
easier than to take my penknife and
cut a slit sufficiently long for me to
step through into tho next apartment
With this prospect of escape / was Just
on the point OF making a rent in the
canvas when I heard footsteps and a
CHEEKY voice without exclaiming:
''Oh. I say. old fellow. you there
still? We'd forgotten all about you.
This is almost too much of a joke. You
might have been there all night"
Seeing the knife in my hand. he then
asked il l had contemplated suicide
during my solitude.
Certainly not only l wasn't going
to bs shut up in such . place when ]
could cut through that partition"
Partition? What? That canvas at
the back
His look of horror startled me. Yes,
and why not?'
