AN HONEST ARTIST.
He Would Not Paint n Lie Even For
q Napoleon.

Napoleon.
There was no love lost between the
Emperor Louis Napoleon and his cousin,
Prince Napoleon, whom the Parisians
called "Plon Plon. The prince used to
| make abusive speeches against the EN-
peror. which people were only too ready
to repeat to him. ''Let him alone, :"
Louis Napoleon would reply. "He is
too well known. No one would turn me-
out to place him on the throne.
The emperor was correct, for no one
said a good word about ''Plon Plon. ="
He was commonly believed to have
shown the white feather in the Crimea
and never exposed himself where the
lead was falling. An English lady, who
in her young days mingled with French
society, tells In her "Foreign Courts
and Foreign Homes" story as discred-
liable to Prince Napoleon as it is hon
orable to French artist.
While the artist was painting the
historical picture of the battle of the
Alma, which the emperor had ordered,
Prince Napoleon called at the painter s
studio to make known to him the facts.
On leaving he said he wished the prom
inent figure in the battle to be himself
mounted on his white charger. He sent
the horse to the artist so that he could
paint its exact portrait. When the pic
ture was finished and invitations were
sent out for "private view, the
white charger was seen, a prominent
figure in the battle, but without rider.
On hearing of this terrible omission
the prince sent an aid-de-camp to ask
the reason. The honest artist said the
horse should remain if the prince wish
ed but no rider would be on 1t. "Tell
the prince have never yet painted a
lie. :" The hint was taken. The prince
ordered the horse to be rubbed out.

LIFE OF ST. PATRICK.
IRELAND'S PATRON SAINT a
KIDNAPPED FRENCHMAN.
Captured by King Nia1-Held in Slay-
cry and Forced to Perform Mental
Labor-Later He Converted All the
Natives of the Island.

II is a curious fact that st. Patrick,
the patron saint of Ireland. was born
in France. In some quarters the exist
ence of such being has been ques-
toned, owing to the eXaggeration OF
his oyerZealous biographers. but 1t Is
susceptible of proof that there was a
ST. Patrick. and that he was a wonder
worker in his time.

rather resented 1t. He also ouarreled

to England. 1t was upon arriving in
New York from an ocean voyage tina!
he contracted the cold that led to his
serious illness.
Kipling is not a favorite with all
readers. A great many do not under
stand his humor. Women as rule dc
not enjoy his writings. His boldness
and subtleties are mainly masculine
He wrote one great poem, 1.-The Recess
sional," and this will probably live as
long as England lives. 1t Is a prayer
an admonition:
Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet,
Lest we forget, lest we forget.
His latest effort In this line Is his
masterpiece on expansion: "Take UI
the White Mans Burden"
Perhaps no one writer receives as
large a price for his work as kipllng
For eight short stories he has received
nearly $4,000. Payment from Other
countries nearly doubles this sum. liz
addition to this he receives royalties
which swell his aggregate yearly in

As the poet of Imperialism, "rbs
White Mans Burden gives him tba
most typical expression. The mos,
quoted lines are these:
Take up the white mans burden
Send forth the best We breed
Go bind your sons to exile
;, To serve your captives' need
The ports We shall not enter,
The roads We shall not tread
Go, make them with your living

The poet makes no secret OF his
methods of work. He says: do you
