time of late painting from life. She

easily sketched from the windows
while at their posts.

adorned by many of his own paint
ings.

association of Russian women in re-
duced circumstances, who are almost
constantly employed for embroidery
for ecclesiastical purposes OF for court

that incident one of the pleasantest

and on the steamer coming home
really let myself out. Everybody was
a bit seasick, and I--well, even l had
times when / thought I'd rather own
an automobile than any kind of a
yacht. One day we all foregathered
on deck and talked about what we'd
gone through-you know how people

the Washington Post.
"'My DEAR said she, I'm so much
