She Paints Eyes for a Living.

The young woman swept her tiny camel's hair brush
across the daub of yellow paint and smeared it over one
side of the semi-globular bit of glass that was fastened to
a small bracket on the table in front of her. Then she
leaned back and looked up admiringly.
allow is that?" she asked.
The visitor was puzzled and frankly admitted it.
swell" she said, 81 suppose it is all right. 1t all de-
ponds upon what you are trying to do"
The young woman with the brush was visibly Disguised.
'My goodness she retorted, ''where are your eyes?
Can't you see that this is just about perfect? Can't you
detect the savage glare in that piece of glass? Don't you
feel as if you'd like to take to your heels and run away
from it? 1t certainly is a savage glare - she added, less
positively. cit is meant to be one, anyway. l am max
ing an eye, a cats eye, an eye for a cat that died in battle
with his tail turned from the enemy. This brave cat has
been stuffed and mounted in a most warlike pose, and |
must make the expression of his eyes correspond with his
bellcose attitude. You can't get a good idea of the effect,
though, until the eye is placed in position. Just wait
till I'm through and then I'll show you how it looks"
The visitor examined the artistic production with in
creased interest. "What a queer line of work, she said.
"Not at all, returned the young woman with the brush.
'It is very pleasant. I work at it all the time. Painting
glass eyes has become quite a remunerative field for a
woman blessed with a delicate touch of the brush. Iii a
good thing for some of US that the glazing glass eyes of
former generation are out of fashion. No first class tax
idermist thinks of using them now. The time was when
the eye of a stuffed animal was considered of minor inn
portance, and a ball of glass of almost any size or color
and absolutely devoid of expression was fastened into the
socket and the work was pronounced complete. But all
that 10 happily changed. Today the eye, instead of being
regarded as the least important factor in obtaining a life.
like appearance in a dead animal, is recognized as a valu-
able medium for conveying an impression of intelligence
and action, and much attention is bestowed upon artistic
eyes.
at requires a good deal of study to determine just what
expression of the eye will correspond with the attitude
decided upon. Then the size and color of an animals
eyes vary with different emotions. Take this cat l am
working on now, for instance. There is a direct relation
between the twist of the tip of the tail and the contrac-
ton or expansion of the pupil of his eye, and it is my
business to find out what that relation is and work along
those lines. In order to fit myself for a competent paint
er of animals eyes, I have found it necessary to become
the intimate friend Of a whole m~enagerie, from an ele-
plant down to Q trained toad. / have painted the eyes

of some of the most valuable animals that have been
mounted in this country in the past five years, and / may
confidently say that | am an expert in my line. After l
get my eyes painted l always like to superintend their in
sertion into the head, for the painting alone does not give
them the desired effect, by any means. SO much depends
upon the length of the lashes, the droop of the lids and
the angle of vision that l am never satisfied unless l
have put on the finishing touches myself.
'Of all eyes l like best to paint those of the deer fam
lily. There is a wistful, haunted, pathetic look in the
eyes of that tribe that touches my heart in a tender spot,
and | fatter myself that | do my cleverest, most ympa-
thetic work when / have a deer in hand.
'People who have animals to be mounted oftentimes
have decidedly original ideas as to position and the ex-
preston of the face. These ideas are not always artistic,
or even sensible, and in obeying directions | frequently
have to commit fragrant outrages against good taste and
natural history. Take the case of a woman over on the
West side whose dog died a little while ago, as an exam
pie. First, she selected the attitude in which she wanted
the little beast preserved, and then she turned her atten
ton to his eyes.
"I want him to have blue eyes, she said, "a real deep
