What do you want with it," he

David" she said, land pray to Christ
for Greece"
He took down the image and hand
ed it to her, and she left that day, the
last day of the sittings, staggering
under its weight.
The statue was finished and sent to
Greece, and the thought of his model
passed from his mind. She was a
little of a mystery to him, but Paris
held many such mysteries, or what
seemed to be mysteries, in those days.
and models, to David Dangers, were
simply models.
That was the story of the Marcos
Botzaris monument. David had been
sufficiently young to be enthusiastic
and sufficiently presumptious to i'm
agine he could do something which
had never been done before. He had
succeeded. With the aid Of the spirit
of Missolonghi, he had succeeded.
In after years. when he departed
from France, exiled by Louis Napo-
leon, a wanderer on the face of the
earth, the irresistible desire to behold
once more his masterpiece finally drew
him to Greece.
Long before the vessel anchored
he caught a glimpse Of the tumulus
erected at the foot OF the bastion In
honor Of Botzaris. 1t made a small.
dark spot on the horizon. but above it
was speck, small and white, with
another dark speck beside it. He
knew the white speck was his statue
of the young Greek girl, but 1t was
not until he had landed that he knew
what is now a matter Of history
that his statue had been mutilated
almost beyond repair.
AS he reached the tomb. he wept like
a child, for. lying across the marble
figure was the unknown girl who had
originated the masterpiece. and who,
having journeyed to Missolonghi to
behold the composition once more,
and having found the right hand OF
the statue broken, the index finger OF
which pointed to the name, after try
ing to hide the cruel, vandal break
with a bouquet of flowers, had died
Of a broken heart, and, with her still
warm clay, for one brief hour was
taking the place Of the marble efigy
she had inspired to the memory OF
Marcos Botzaris and his fall at Misso-
longhi.

The clinging grace and picturesque
ness of the various princesse styles
are largely responsible for the marked
favor they command for wedding
gowns and elegant evening dresses.
The continuous, unbroken lines from
shoulder to skirt hem at the back in
variably impart length and slender
ness. and the fronts this season show
more than ever very youthful anu
charming effects. Satin royal, creped
satin, peau de sole, crepe de chlne'
chiffon over MORE, silk-warp yelling,
lace, net, and brocade are among the
fabrics most favored for princesse
gowns this year, and pretty silk and
wool fancies are employed for less ex-
pensive developments of these models

The Man Who Wins.

The man who wins is the man who
works.
The man who tolls while the next man
shirks:
The man who stands In his deep distress
With his head held high In the deadly
press
Yes, he Is the man who wins.
The man who wins is the man who
knows
The value of pain and the worth of
Who lesson learns from the man who
fails
And a moral finds in his mournful walls,
Yes, he Is the man who wins.
The man who wins Is the man who stays
In the unsought paths and the rocky
ways:
And perhaps who fingers now and then
To help some failure to rise again,
All! he Is the man who wins.
And the man who wins Is the man VINO
hears
The curse of the envious in his ears,
But who goes his way with his head heio
high
And. passes the wrecks of the failures
by
For he is the man who wins.

pointed hour, but never a word did
she vouchsafe as to herself or her an
tecedents, and David, engrossed
with his composition, grew to
think of her less and less.
as his composition neared its compile
ton and he grew to thinking of the
statue more.
On the wall of his studio hung a
very handsome bronze crucifix, on a
velvet panel. He often found her
watching it. 1t seemed to have a fas-
cination for her, and one day,when the
child was dressing. after two or three
hours of hard work, when he had
spoken to her again Of payment for
her sittings and she had again de-
clined the money. she exclaimed, with
a glance at the crucifix:
IF you insist upon paying me. M.
David, you may give me that"
The crucifix was worth considerably
more than the price of her sittings at

Humorous Incident at . Milwaukee
Theatrical Performance.
Robert Edeson, the actor, tells this
story of the stage: 1--WE seen and
heard good many funny things in the
way of plays and play actors in my
time, but the greatest thing ever saw
or heard was in Milwaukee. This was
several months ago. 1t was in one Of
the museums there. The museum
had stock company in its theater,
and it's great specially was border
drama. Every week they gave a new
drama of the wild and woolly west.
This play that saw was bloodhound

was pitch dark, and two men were
fighting a duel l could hear the
knives clash together, and hear the
men stumble around the stage, but

forms of the actors. After a while
there was thump on the floor, and

Factorv Wave. In Japau.

The wages paid factory operators In
Japan can hardly be comprehended by
Americans, but an idea may be gained
from the official records of 1898. The
daily wage of women ranged from z
cents to about 16 cents, and those OF
men from to 80 cents. The last named
figure, amounting to about $3.50 per
week. would be the salary of a foreman
or overseer. Even a skilled watch
maker earns but $1.25 per week. 1t
must be remembered, however, that
Japanese labor is not SO cheap as 1t
looks, for the level of efficiency is not
so high as that of the West. Japan
has now about 1,25O,OO0 cotton opera
tives.

The Cigarmakers international
Union has the best financial system OF
any voluntary organization in this
country. This fact is acknowledged
by all who have ever made an investl-
cation of the subject. The funds OF
the international union belong to and
are centered in one common fund, but
each local union holds its share OF the
funds in trust for the international
union. And while each local union
keeps an account of its own financiai
transactions, each is required to report
to headquarters, where the accounts
are also kept and drawn OFF annually
and presented to the members through
the columns of their journal. Inls
plan insures perfect control and allows
each member to know the standing OF
his own union as well as the standing
Of each local union, and to know JUST
what is being done with the fund IN
which, under their system. he, Win
the Others is equally interested In ana
a Joint owner. Under their system one
union that has exhausted Its FUNDS Dy
legitimate expenditure can, on applica-
ton to headquarters. have funds sent
from any other local union.
The receipts of the international
union for the year 1901 were $75l,-
612.29, the expenditures $745,294'zo.
This left only slight balance on hand
for the year, but with the amount on
hand the year before the organization
has a fund of 1921, 124.33.

For Golf and Tennis.
Blousen

AS long as golf and tennis remain so
popular and attractive to the lovers OF
outdoor life, new fads and fancies are
sure to present themselves. This spring
the women are wearing very swagger
chamois-leather leggings. bound and
stitched and buttoned on the side.
They are cooler than the heavy leather
ones, and much more comfortable and
pliable. Worn with black shoes, they
are ugly but with tan shoes they are
chic to a degree. With the short golf
and tennis skirt, woman's foot gear
is very much en- evidence. 10 she can
not be too careful how size is shod.

The trouble between the brewers
and employees of Cincinnati, Covington
and Newport still continues. The
brewers say they must stand by their
new men who were employed during
the long lockout, and they want them
all taken into the union of the United
Brewery workers so as to comply Win
the decision. This would prevent the
reinstatement of all the 1,2OO men
who have been out and it may cause
delay in settling the lockout and boy
colt.

French knots in colors set between
two curved lines of white and black,
all done in heavy cotton. The points

Newest Hair Ornament.

Quite the newest hair ornament is
the Juliet cap" This is revival OF
the little netted cap of pearls or brill

and fashion when Romeo wooed Juliet.
1t is charming with the low dressing,
and is worn at the top of the head.
Another dainty novelty is the tiara
shaped wreath of maidenhair fern,
cleaning with dewdrops. Small Ivy
leaves. with tiny flowers intermingled,
are used in similar fashion, and roses.
buds and other floral arrangements,

American Federation OF Labor.

The American Federation OF LABOR
during the first quarter of 1902 issued
charters to two national and interna-

and sixteen declarations of labor, ana
thirty local trade unions. Considering
that during this time eighty-eight ma
tional and international unions were
issuing charters to their respective
crafts from two to twenty each, it can
be readily seen to what extent trades
unionism is growing.
