REMARKABLE PAINTING.

At the urgent solicitation of the Woman's Home Companion, MT. Paul de Longpre, who is the greatest painter of flowers in the world, consented to make a paint ing of what he considered The Three Most Beautiful Roses, :" and the painting is without doubt one of the masterpieces of this great artist. This magnificent picture is reproduced in all it's original grandeur on the cover of the Woman's Home Companion for June. Although this cover IS an accurate reproduction of a painting worth hundreds of dol lars, yet the June number, which has this cover, may be obtained at any first-class newsstand or direct from the publishers for the trivial sum of only ten cents.
 MT. Paul de Longpre is justly styled the King of Flower Paint ers." He not only paints roses, but every flower that grows, and is the highest authority on flow CTS. His paintings are found Tn the most select homes. Some have sold for as much as seven thousand five hundred dollars ($7,500.O0).
 Artists, art critics and compe- tent judges all agree that the covers of the Woman's Home Companion far excel those of any other magazine.
 The Woman's Home Compan- ion is a magazine which in beau ty and excellence, art, stories, illustrations and fashions. etc., excels all other home and family magazines. The Woman's Home Companion is published by The Crowell Publishing Company, New York City, also Chicago, Ill.,, at One Dollar a year, and is the favorite magazine in nearly half a million homes, where it is read each and every issue by three million people.
