He Fixed the Picture.

On one occasion when the we'll known
English painter, Mr.. Val Prinsep, r.
A., was engaged at the Royal academy
in vanishing picture he unfortu-
nately upset high box ON which he
had been standing. with the result that
the sharp corner made Its way through
a picture Immediately below his own,
causing a large and jagged hole in the
canvas.
Horrified at what he had done and
dreading to meet the artist to whom
the damaged picture belonged, Mr..
Prinsep sought the academy secretary
and begged for permission to repair
the canvas. His request was granted.
The severed threads were stitched to-
gether, the seam was covered with
paint, and so skillfully was the tear
touched up that the picture was sold
at the private view on the next day.
Fortunately the painter of the pic
ture. when affairs were explained to
him, was rather more amused than
annoyed at what had happened.-Lon-
don Chronicle.

The knight of Ehrenburg now spoke
up calmly, as was his custom.
"'Tis serious matter" he said, "for
a man to take another's word touching
action of his majesty the emperor. You
have clerks here with you. Perhaps,
then. you would bid them indite doc

so that should the emperor take Of
