First Meeting Of tho Tw" Great Artists
In Gay Bohemia.
We first met in Antwerp in the class

studies in Paris, where in the Atelier
Gleyre had cultivated the essentially
French art Of chatting known by the
name of ia plague Parisienne," and
now was able to give my less lively
flemlsh friends and fellow-students
the full benefit Of my experience. Many
peasant recollections bound me to
paris, so when heard one ia!

granted that he was Frenchmap.
addressed him in French. We we're
soon engaged in lively conversation,
asking ape answering questions ABOUT
comrades IN Paris, and sorting the
threads that associated us with the

Poynter? he asked, exquisitely
Frenchifying the name for my benefit.
mentally translated this into equally
exquisite English, my version natur-

Later an American came up. with

Du Maurier. And what the deuce are
you,' l rejoined. And we then and
there made friends on a sound inter-
national basis.
1t seemed to me that at this first
meeting Du Maurier took me in at
glance-the eager, hungry glance OF
the caricaturist. He seemed struck by
my appearance, as we'll he might be.

1t has always been a source of legit-

Providence to sharpen Du Maurier's
