and writing. A little fairy story which
she wrote in verse and Illustrated at this
time, was full Of poetic as well as artistic
promise. and although no doubt the poster
fad has aided in the rapid development OF
her decorative ability, it was very pro-
nounced in her as a child, when her only field
for il was paper dots. Miss Hills tells me
that she used to make dolls so fascinating
with their flowing lines and graceful curves.
their big hats and slceveS-when both were
quite unknown to fashion-thcir striking
originality, that even she used to beg for
and treasure them.
Though Miss Reed is decidedly of a rU-
mantle temperament, she has a deep. rich
abundant nature. at the same time simple
and serene. She is one OF the young wo-
men who never chatter, and unless She
really has something to say, takes refuge
in perfect silence the sort OF temperament
that offers many surprises to those
who know her. She once took the
part of an intense. passionate young We
man in some amateur theatricals in her
native town, and enacted the part with
SO much warmth and color that scarcely
one in the audience recognized her as the
cold statuesque young woman with whom
they were acquainted. And though she un-
consciously sheds a certain fascinating air
of mystery about her. She is au fond, sweet
ly simple. She is passionately FOND of mu-
sic. and her first ambition was to be a
voGnSt, but the stronger desire to paint
seems for the time being to have grad
ually forced this aspiration into the back
ground. In fact, the windows of her youth
ful sopl are open to impressions from ey-
cry Surce, and literature, music and art
must yield of their best TO nourish and
stimulate her brilliant Imagination.
Miss Hills has just completed minia-
ture of Miss Reed. which, with another of
Miss Hills Incompatible miniatures, has
Just been accepted by the Society of
American artists and will be exhibited
in New York from March % until May
9. Miss Reed, with her large green eyes
looking out from under beautifully arched
eyebrows. her fine pallor, with sometimes
just a tinge OF pink coming and going about
the temples. her abundant soft black hair
growing in the most bewitching way about
brow and neck her strong throat and per
fectly rounded curves is Il subject whom
artists joy to paint. She Is, above all
things, plastic, and poses so wonderfully
that Miss Hills says since beginning this
miniature she has wanted 70 do her in 100
different. positions. She also says that.
though she has painted her many times
over, she still has To struggle against Il
tendency TO paint her too tall; that there
is that in her nature, her character, that
gives one a sense OF unusual height
Philip Hale, her fiance, is wenty-eight
years old, and is the son of Edward Everett
Hale. He is an artist Also having studied
at the Boston Art Museum, the New York
Art League, and seven years in Paris
during which time he had numerous exhibits
at the salon. He now holds a profesSorship
in the Boston Art Museum.
The young artist lovers expect to be
married in the early spring, and will go
Immediately abroad, making Paris their
temporary home.

A Word About Wells.

The success Of The veil depends upon dis
crCtion in choice of pattern and its method
of adjustment. Indeed, the art of putting
on veil is Il difficult one, atieast to Eng
iish women. Our Partisan sisters pos
sess the happy knack visiting voluminous
lengths OF ret or gauze around their heads
with an effect altogether delightful.
To the careful study, then, of veil adj
justment would we direct our readers, and
also draw their attention to choice or de-
sign and color. The sallow compleXioned
woman should fly frCm the blue veil, size
Of roseate checks frCm the red, the bust
ness woman from the impractical white,
and so on, while undoubtedly the smartest
and most becoming veil of all is The black,
of soft fine Quality and fascinating design.
