cinnati Art school-the youngest pupil
ever admitted. She attended on Satur-
days until leaving high school and then
studied regularly for two years.
At the end Of this time Miss Kaplan
studied at the Art Students league in
New York, becoming a pupil of Kenyon
Cox, Mowbray and Beckwith. After q
three years course she was elected a
member Of the league, which gave her
recognition as IN artist. Several first
prizes were bestowed upon Miss Kaplan
at the exhibitions In New York. Her
work has been reproduced in the st.
Nicholas, The Ladies' Home Journal,
Lite, Truth and many Of the leading
eastern papers. Her sketches are exceed.
ingly clever and show humorous appre-
citation Of the ridiculous side Of life. Miss
Kaplan has recently taken up miniature
painting and has recently executed or.
ders with great credit for several promi-
nent parties in this city and New York.
Considering the youth Of Miss Kaplan,
who is only %, her career promises to b.
a most fattering one.
In addition to her ability as an artist,
Miss Kaplan excels as a writer of both
prose and poetry. Many of her verses
have appeared in print from time to
time. Her particular forte Is children's
and fairy stories.
Miss Kaplan is a charming girl per

eyes reveal the depths of her nature, yet
lurking within one sees the happy girlish
spirit, unaffected and gracious. -Cincin-

Much has been said about mixed mar
riages in Japan. On rare occasions they
are a success, but this is not generally
the case, especially if the wife be the
foreigner.
l was much interested in a European
lady l knew who had married a Japanese
officer. They were a very united cou-
pie, and, had it not been for the hus-
bands mother, all might have been well.
But in Japan a wife is entirely in sub
lection to her mother-in-law, who makes
the most of this authority, in some cases
reducing her sons wife into a sort of
upper servant. In the present instance
as long as her husband remained at
home his wife was able to do pretty
much as she pleased. When, however,
the war broke out and he joined his regi-
ment in China, the mother-in-law entirely
regained the upper hand. The unfor-
tunate daughter had to abandon her Eu-
ropean customs, to adopt Japanese dress
for herself and her child, to sit on the
floor and live principally on Japanese
food.
So great wal the old lady's power and
influence that the western woman did not
dare to disobey, but had to submit in
silence until her husbands return home,
when, l am glad to say, life once more
became bearable to her.-Cornhill Maya

A Nasty Man Wrote 1t.


"Women are the most unreasonable
creatures in the world" said the fire in
surance mar to his wife.
"Some women" she corrected.
"Well, we won't quarrel about it, but
let me tell you about that old lady in
Shutdown who had her house insured
three weeks ago." he went on. "She
had a $1,000 policy on it, about all it was
worth, really, and We were only getting
$3.50 a year for carrying it. Last night
it burned down to the ground, and today
she was in to see me. She was fairly
sopping in tears and angry besides"

my house insured it wouldn't burn down.
You told me that, l am sure
"Oh, beg your pardon, my dear lady,
I couldn't have said that said l..

had it insured. I've been living in that
house for so years, and It never was in

before. And it wouldn't have been in.

"'But I never told you that it wouldn't

what is the good of insuring a house if it
Is going to burn down, I'd like to know?

that persistent agitation brought about:
A new street was cut through to the
%ychoclhouse so that the children were not
obliged to go by a road on which fast
horses were speeded and where several
accidents had occurred. A village rule
against riding on the sidewalk was pass
ed. Sunday baseball playing was pro-
hibited. A hill Sc steep as to be dangerous
for all vehicles, especially bicycles, was
graded. A marsh, horribly productive of
malaria, was drained by subscription, and
numerous other matters of public i'm
provement attended to, and all this with
out special influence and nothing but
keeping the matter before the people re-
sorted to. Grandma studies her 'fus-

Metals That Help Gold Production.

The better prices for lead, iron and
copper bear a direct relation upon the
increased production of gold. The
Rocky Mountain region for 1899 will
register the largest yearly production of
gold aver chronicled. 1t is due to the
higher prices for lead, iron and copper.
Lead and iron ores are used universally
for auxing purposes, and the opening Of
lead and iron mines has been an inesti-
mable aid to the smelters, a quantity of
these materials permits a larger saving
of gold and facilitates the handling Of
ores.
These mines are characterized by large
mineral bodies which usually carry gold
and silver. Thus a large tonnage is the
result of higher prices, and with this
tonnage goes millions of gold, a great
part of which might otherwise never see
the light. The same may be said also
of the increased production of copper.
If the present demand and prices con
tinue for these metals it will continue to
stimulate gold production.

The woman Of the Angelus.

Barbizon, a little village In the midst
Of the forest of Fontainebleau, a short
distance from Paris, has become a goal
Of pilgrimage for many admirers of Mil
let's work and particularly for those who
know that the woman who suggested to
the great painter his famous picture Of
"The Angelus" still lives there in a little
cottage a stones throw from where she
was born. Mere Adele's home is a small
vine clad cottage, in which she lives a
frugal but comfortable life, troubled only
by the overinquisitive tourists and by
her rheumatism. She must have been
an attractive woman ace for ever now,
although she has witnessed the passing
Of more than threescore years and ten,
there are traces Of former beauty in her
wrinkled face.
Mere Adele is a lady, though she has
worn her fingers blunt by toll, and her
form is bent under the burdens she has
had to bear. When she locks at you, her
smile is like a benediction, and the beau.
tiful things Of earth are not lost upon
her. Her name is cheerful, as one who
feels she has not lived in vain. II ques-
toned closely, she will will tell you OF
the day when the great artist came
through the dense forest with bis wife
and children, leaving behind him the gay
city Of Paris with its schools Of painting
and its models. She knows . great deal
Of the very hard days which followed for
Jean Francois Millet-the toll, the anx-
iety, the disappointments. She nursed
his Eve children and did the little field
~rocL In kha oo rdop adjoining thp cnf.
tage. When he saw his nursegirl, Adele.
and her father reverently bowling their
heads In prayer at the ringing Of the
angelus, he conceived the picture which,
II not his best work, ID yet the best
known and the one most appreciated by
the people. Mere Adele calls herself a
child Of God. She looks 1t in the paint
ing, and she lives it every day in her
humble cottage.-Edward A. Steiner In
