told by one who appears TO have made a con-
seientious study of all the records concerning
the Nazareue and the history and habit of the
Jews and their Roman rulers at that time.
The description of Mary, whom Jesus loved.

who was an exception. She came into

time hitting every one around her with
her sharp elbows and umbrella handle
besides getting the large flower in her

She finally got her ticket. and after
giving it to the conductor she continued
her talk.

The Artist.

studio" not a real first class studio,
but one OF the little upstairs places
where the walls are whitewashed dirty
blue and the skylights are too little &c
let in much light. As the photographer
makes speciality Of tin types, lovers in
Vulnerable stumble up the steps to sit
together blushing and happy before the
camera.
1t was from one Of these pairs OF low
ers that the artist OF the family learned
her lesson. l said "from one Of these
pairs OF lovers" To be more exact
shoald have said two pairs; or to be
moro exact still, pair and half.
They came one afternoon in Fair
time" the girl with her plain, white
dress, dusty from half day spent at the
fair grounds. She was pretty little
thing, rosy checked and flaxen-haired.
She and her lover talked in some Ian
guage that the artist could not under
stand, Swedish, perhaps, or Danish.
The lover was tall and smiling and awk-
ward.
They sat very close together, while
the artist busted herself behind the
black hangings OF the camera. They
thought, Of course, that she could not
see them, and just as the artist had fin
ished adjusting the lens the boy leaned
suddenly forward and kissed the pretty
girl on her lips.
1t was mean OF the artist. But the
kiss was 30 long and lingering. The
camera was all ready, and one extra neg
alive cost so little.
When the kiss was over the artist
withdrew her head from the camera and
said calmly that she was ready now;
would they please smile and sit very
still while she took the picture. After
wards they went away-the girl staying
behind a moment to whisper: HE gOss
away. home again. soon. Dat is Wy we
have the picture"
The whisper ended in a tremOr and
tears gath, BRED in her blue eyes. The
artist smiled alphabetically and stood
quite still as the two walkeJ down the
stairs. She felt just little guilty a.
she developed the two negatives. But
she wanted to chow the kissing scene to
Frank.
She smiled happily when she thought
of Frank. After all those other two
were lovers just a. truly az she and
Frank were. II they paid less attention
to the little conventionalities OF high
society, the difference was one Of degree
not OF kind. Undoubtedly there was
higher society whose niceties were be-
yond Frank and herself.

would feel il Frank were going away.
The kiss picture came out very we'll,
not quite clear because Of the short ex-
posture. But it could be identified.
Frank had good laugh over it. 80 the
artist was satisfied and set it up on the
table in her room.
The two in the picture could hardly
be expected to observe very carefully
what was going on around them. But
they had such chance.
1t was pity they had to be 60 wrap
ped up in themselves. They could have
seen the artist stare at herself in the
glass sometimes with pale, dishearten-
ed face. They could have seen her one
evening, burn three letters over the
lamp. They could have heard Der in
the middle Of the night cry with her
face buried in the pillow. But they
were absorbed in their own love affair.
They stood there on the table and kissed
each other steadily all night till the art
list woke in the morning and came and
turned them to the wall. Since Frank
did not love her any more, she could not
bear to see the other two lovers kissing
each other and happy.
The picture was turned to the wall for
six months. The artist came and went
with never glance at the little Swede
girl and her lover. She almost forgot
them. She had Other things to think
about. She was learning to make her
work in the gallery fill her life 30 that
she would not miss the other things that
