A Professional Beauty.

For a number OF years Nine. Gautreau
has posed as the unrivaled professional
beauty in Paris. She is said to closely
resemble Diane de Poitiers, and it is the
prayer of every rising artist that she
will sit to him for portrait and thus
bring his name to public notice. Her
figure and her nuque are regarded as
beyond any comparison beautiful;
therefore, no salon is considered COM

that heightened, if possible, her radis

SCRAPING THE PAM
We have often been told of the unall'

We have often been told of the unalloyed
bliss
Shared alike by the simple and wise,
That has come to each one in his bright
childhood days
The making of tempting mud pies.
But it seems to me strange that the sweetest
and best
In our young lives should not be forgot
The frolic, the fun and exquisite joy
In scraping the pan or the pot.
In the long-shadowed life what is left is
but dregs,
More bitter the older we grow;
Then we think, with sigh, of the cake in
the pan
That we scraped In the sweet long ago.
Could l. from the years full of hours gone by,
Choose one to live over again,
would take that dear hour from my child
hoods best days,
On mothers old kitchen floor, when,
After waiting so long, with a hungering
taste,
At last, with goodness benign,
The old ebony cook put the cake in to bake,
And the pan, all unscraped, thenywas mine.
