Paris, Oct. N-Boutet de Mouvel, the
distinguished French painter of children's
portraits, returns tomorrow for a second
visit to America.
You see my studio empty" he said
but many of my pictures have gone to
Vienna-not Berlin-to Vienna-where they
are to have a room by themselves in a
general exhibition"
On his studio wall is one Of the beautiful
Donosemy frescoes which in itself furn-
ishes the room. All the brilliant courts Of
Charles VII are assembled, the King alone

which disguise fails to deceive Jeanne
d Arc, who kneels unhesitatingly before

You can't imagine" said de Mouvel
what pleasure / take in executing all the
details of these stuffs and tapestries 1
have worked at this fresco most of the
time since my return from America NV
intention is 10 make them as decorative as
possible and as much like old mssals."
The result is so successful that but for
the remarkable freshness Of color thew
might be mistaken for some huge illumf-
nations of the fifteenth century, recently
discovered.
America is now the only place where
people are willing to spend large sums
of money for works of art" de Mouvel
went on In talking. But the picture
dealers take advantage of this too often
Rosa Bonheur's pictures. for example, will
not be worth anything in another twenty
five years, and Americans have paid big
prices for them"
During the summer NJ de Mouvel has
finished two portraits, one of NJ de La
zarde's son and one of Renach's son, the
nephew of Joseph Reinach who lost his
decoration of the Legion of Honor because
of his conduct during the Dreyfus trial.
He takes with him to America a portrait
of Emmons Blaine, a boy of or TO- seated
with volume on his knees of De Mou-
vel's Jeanne dare, whose varied colors
make a pleasing contrast with the sub
dued delicate tones of the picture. which
was began last year in Chicago and fin
ished in Paris
Boutet de Mouvers most recent work
is a group of Breton children in the open
air. The boys lie about on the grass
after the manner of the Brittany fisher
men, who look upon the time spent on land
as the resting time from the struggles
and hardships al sea; and the girls stand
about their sober faces bent under their
white colts toward the roll of knitting in
their hands-matrons already, preoccupled
with womanly duties. This Is one of a
series of Breton studies which De Mouvel
is preparing probably to exhibit in 1900
In New York he is to paint, among others,
the portrait of the senator from Montana.

COURTSHTP AND MARRIAGE.
1t Was scotch Queen Margaret who
Urged WOmen's Rights.


Urged WOmen's Rights.
There is quite an interesting and little
known history connected with the intro
,luction of leap year In 1888, when Queen
Margaret reigned over Scotland, this gra-
cious lady deereed that during her reign
every maiden in her realm. whether of
high or low degree. should purpose to the
man that she loved; and that if the man
we're not betrothed already he must either
wed the maid or pay heavy fine.
on the death of Queen Margaret the
women were urgent in their demands that
their new privileges should be continued.
To appease them an act of parliament was
passed which made 1t lawful for ma!dens
10 do the proposing every leap year
Not all the romantic IDEAS of our ances-
tors have been thus perpetuated and COM
paratively few were transferred by our
Pilgrim Fathers across the Atlantic. For
instance, in the good old days, il was the
custom in many towns and even villages
in England TO own a house where poor
couples, after they had been welded in
church, could entertain their friends at
small cost, the only outlay, indeed, being
entailed by the purchase of such provis-
ions as they chose 10 bring with them.
which had a large kitchen with caul-
dron, large spits and a dripping pan; also
a large room for merriment and a fur
nished boudoir. Dishes, table linen and
bed linen were amongst its possessions.
In Essex there was a house very much
like this, which was used by the poorer
folks for dining in after they had return
ed from church.
In some of the old English histories one
may read that in 1456 Roger Thornton
granted to the Mayor and community Of
Newcastle-upon-Tyn the use of the hall
and kitchen belonging to Thornton's Hos
pltal for the use of young couples when
they were married to make their wedding
dinner in, and receive the offerings and
Sits OF their friends"
AT lIameiin, there still exists a large
building. which is known as the wedding
house, 1t was erected during the second
decade of the seventeenth century.

Simple Exercises to FIJI Those TrOu-

bIesOme HOIIOws.
To fill the troublesome hollows on each
side of the collarbone a system of deep
breathing is invaluable. Take a deep
breath, hold it as long as possible and
then exhale it very slowly. Repeat this
ten times. DO this twice day.
AS it is absolutely essential that the
muscles should be developed, the following
exercises must become a part of ones
daily routine:
l. Slowly bend the head forward till the
chin touches the neck. Then raise it very
gradually
2. Slowly bend the head backwards and
raise it again.
8. Bend sideways to right and left
All these movements should be repeated
ten or fifteen times; and when you have
done this you will feel that every muscle
in your throat and neck Is aching. Then
battle the throat and neck in hot water.
Dry thoroughly, and well massage in any

THANKSGIVING TID-BITs.
Alligator Pears for Salad and

A dainty to serve with one course of the
Thanksgiving dinner is alligator or ar

Alligator pears are imported and expen-

are of no mean proportions, and one goes
