the disappointment in store for her.
She advised her to take to posing, If
she could not obtain pupils, and prom
ised her " ork.
The girl was confident of success
then. When the steamer stopped at
Staten Island she leaned complacently
over the rail and said condescendingly:
Why, New York is quite a little
place, isn't it?"
However, she soon learned. One day
she knocked at Miss Phelps studio
door, sad and discourage. Before long
she had become the rage among the
artists.
;cw England Maid.
Then there was a sweet little New
england maiden who came to New
York a few months ago to teach the
authorities at the celebrated Pratt In
stitute in Brooklyn something entirely
new in free-hand water color sketch
ing. She anticipated that 1t really
wouldn't be week before she had
convinced them how superior her way
was to theirs, and had formed classes
which would pay her snlendidly for
their enlightenment. Alasi She was
the one to learn. She learned that her
work was neither new nor creditable--
llidt BIC was dl the iUETCy OF a strange
city without the slightest knowledge
that would help her to earn a cent.
She had pretty figure, and was Of
fered money to pose for a class at the
institute. Then the teacher, taking an
interest in her, gave her list of sew
eral artists to whom she might safely
apply for work.
At the first studio at which she
knocked the artists wife came to the
door. Recognizing the child as one
who had had the best of home infiu-
ence, the lady asked her in and induced
the artist to engage her for the morn
ings. Meanwhile she persuaded the
girl to study stenography during the
afternoons and take an Office position
These are only three out of dozens of
interesting stories; but they illustrate
the cause of scores of young women's
taking to the profession of posing, and
why so many girls of excellent social
standing are among the models of to-
day. 1t is looked upon as an easy way
of making eighteen dollars a week, as
a thing which requires no training, and
often in an emergency is the thing
which tides girl with a pretty face or
figure over until she has learned a pro-
fession or gained regular position.

not as yet obliterated a very human

swarm like butterflies on the college

in the matter of froclIs and frills, and
taking pretty advantage of their youth
they all wear their hair low. The front
hair, for morning or evening academic
frivolities, is pompadoured deliberately,
and the full roll over the brow is softly
waved. The length of hair is drawn
over a cushion, and. unless you are a
real old girl'' of twenty, you tie this
hair with a broad satin ribbon at the
nape of the neck, and thence let it
flow. Some girls. whose hair is a

a day. She decided to journey thither,
and go on the stage.
BY a singular chance, a few weeks
before leaving home, Miss Middleton
happened to read an article in one of
the magazines of the month upon the
work Of an artists model. 1t de-
scribed how many models posed for
one thing only-hands. face, neck and
shoulders, arms or fgure-whatever
was most beautiful about her. Miss
Middleton has the most wonderful red
hair-hair with natural wave, which
never leaves it, even in the dampest
weather. And she said to herself
then:
''Well, IL I don't succeed in getting
on the stage in New York, need never
starve, for can make my fortune pos
ing for my hair"
She little thought at the time that
this was a jest in sober earnest. But
months afterward, when she had tried,
and tried in vain TO get a position be-
hind the footlights, and when IL be-
came necessary to earn money some
how, she remembered the magazine
article, and started out among the
studios to look for work.
After all, it was her hair that proved
her fortune. AS she was going down
on the elevator in the Sherwood Build
ing on the first day of her quest Of en-
plcyment Miss Helen Watson Phelps,
the most celebrated woman painter of
the nude in America, happened to pass
in the hall and caught a glimpse of the
FURNISHED gold beneath her hat. Every
one knows Miss Phelps preference for
red hair in her pictures. She ran over
to the grating and called down to the
man running the car: 'If that young
lady is a model / want to see her at
once" Such was the beginning of Miss
Middleton's success.
From the West Indies.
Another model who owed her start in
life TO Miss Phelps was a beautiful
young woman, a native of the West IN
dies. She came to New York thinking
it would be an easy matter TO earn
her living teaching French. She was
as ignorant of the great competition
she would meet in this line as she was
of the fact that her French accent was
simply atroclous. Miss Phelps met this
young woman on the steamer coming

1t is always spoken of as the Mod

is its official title. And, as a matter Of
fact, the membership is almost as
largely drawn from among the promi-

sexes in the metropolis as it is from
among the young women who pose for
their pictures.
The association is purely one of COM
bined business and social interests, as
any other club might be. 1t was or
ganized to bring the young women of
this profession together. 1t is entirely
in sympathy with their work, and for
its encouragement. AS for reforma-

Take, for instance, the story of Miss
Julia Middleton. who has been one of
the most popular models among New
York artists this year. She was a West
Virginia belle, and comes from one of
the most exclusive families of that
state. When her father, a prominent
lawyer, met with reverses a year ago,
she was obliged to become a bread
winner. Like many another girl. her
thoughts turned to the metropolis as
the place where fortunes are made in
