away, ana tne ARTIST was alone. lie sat
by window, alternately contemplating
the beauty of the clear autumn day and
turning his attention to his completed
work. He had wrought upon ii until he
could do no more. He was satisfied with
the result of his labors and felt confident
that his patrons would be pleased
Soon he heard footsteps outside, and in
a moment Mr.. and Mrs Harlow stood be-
fore him. Long and silently they stood
and gazcd ut the picture. Not Il word
was spoken until after several moments
Gerald said in low tone, hcSitatiug to
disturb their thoughts:
Are you satisfied with my work."
As he spoke he noticed that the tears
were slowly gathering in the lady's eyes.
She could not speak. Mr.. Harlow was
also deeply moved. Turning to his wife
he said
I'VE know now more than ever what
we lost"
The lady could no longer control her
agitation and sinking on couch close
by burst into tears.
At that moment Gerald opened the
door in response to a rap, and Isabel
Warren now stood before them
Mr.. Harlow and his wife looked at her
in dumb amazement. The lady was the
first to speak.
How is this, Mr.. Marston? Who is
this young ladyE' she asked.
Before Gerald could reply Mr.. Harlow
said:
Il see that this is your model, Mr.
Marston. Let me congratulate YOU As
for ourselves. what has seemed to us
a wonder work of imagination and divi-
nation is in reality but painting of this
young lady. Was it well 10 try and i'm
pose upon credulous people,
With admirable self control Gerald
said:
You are quite mistaken, Mr.. Harlow.

convince You of this Then turning To
Mrs. Harlow he introduced Miss War
ren to her and then to MIR. Harlow.
Il am much gratitiod at your cXplana.
ton. which is entirely satisfactory to
me- said MIR. Harlow, who was now
looking intcntly at his wife. That lady
had risen and, taking Isabel by the hand.
said:

dear. 1t seems as if already knew YOU
and that we were the best of friends"
The tears were in her eyes and in her
