Rosa Bonheur earned her first mon
ely in copying the paintings of old
masters, working early and late, help
ing to support her family. Her first
animal picture was goat, which
pleased her so much that she gave up
copying and took up animal painting.
Models being too expensive for the
slender purse of the young artist, she
would tramp miles to a farm, carry
ing meager lunch in her pocket, to
sketch an animal. When only 10 years
old she sent her first picture to an art
ed a genius.

A living tree gives out perceptible
warmth in a dense forest. The sur
face is covered with snow, and it's
roots, even those that are nearest the
surface, are in unfrozen soil, and even
in the coolest weather send tiny veins
of sap up to the tree as the promise OF
what spring shall bring. Thus each
tree gives out a little warmth, and
each helps not only itself, but all the
trees near it. Rivals as these trees are
in summer, each one trying to get the
most foothold and the most sunlight,
they are far more companionable and
friendly in winter, when common ad-
versity has hard hit them all.

Miss Ellen Burdlett, a young Amer
lean woman, is said to have purchased
the Pompeiian Palace in the Cours la
Refine, Paris, built by Prince Jerome
Bonaparte forty years ago with the in
tention of turning it into a restaurant
during the Paris Exposition, where
American visitors may find American
cooking. The decorations are to be
as much as possible and the
mattresses, all of them pronounced
brunettes, will be dressed in ancient
Pompeiian costume.

In an uptown fiat on the west side
of New York city lives a very quiet,
middle-aged woman, who has originat-
ed the profession of voice tuning.
What the piano tuner is to that mus
zeal instrument this woman is to pro,
fessional singers. She takes them in
hand, corrects their faulty or defective
notes, and keys them up with the same
skill employed by the tuner, whose
work is purely mechanical. Profess
sional singers, it appears, grow rusty
from one cause or another even while
in constant practice. The fine sensibil-
ity of the ear becomes dulled, or the
vocal organs refuse to record the nice
ties of musical expression, and the
tuner becomes a necessity.

hear?' and he turned on her with
cleaning eyes, and an air of manly
authority that checked her mirth mid
way.
''Roger Howard, by what right do
you interfere with my pleasures?'
For a moment he was taken aback
at this first glimpse of rebellion in the
gentle nature he had known so we'll,
and when he resumed it was in calm
er tones.
"Kitty, by the right of lifelong

"Love," murmured the girl, and was
silent.

1T was long past midnight when
they neared the old homested, where
one solitary light still burned, one
restless watcher awaited their coming.
They parted, as lovers part who hope
to meet again, and then the girl
rushed into the lighted room, flung
aside veil and wraps, and in a
breathless sort of way cried out
kitty, my DEAR consider yourself
engaged; the man actually proposed,
and I-I-accepted him."
