Mrs. J. B. Raulston'e recent stay abroad of several months was to her full of even more than the artistic pleasures natural to Sc cultivated an artist, as the old gal cries hold for her many m unforgotten memory, Her birthplace, London, 1t was there that she drew her first inspiration, and there again after an absence of sev- eral years during which she had become recognized among the women painters foremost In this country, she turned to the old masters with probably the same feeling that we turn to an old and we'll loved friend. It was In the Paris ateliers however, that Mrs. Raulston spent most of her time while in Europe and when not in Paris or London, hard at work she was In Italy. reyelling there In the world- famed galleries.
 Her work abroad was chiefly in pastel in portraiture. and in her studio here she has some copies of the old mas ters, notably Sir Joshua Reynolds, Rus sell and Velasques, It Is after their style that Mrs. Raulston intends posing modern children, and these portraits show that her talents have not been confined chiefly to water colors and to porce- lain decoration, a field in which she has won her greatest distinction. They reveal her same delcacy and true appreciation of all that Is best In art.
 In speaking of her work abroad yes terday, Mrs. Raulston said;
 When I left the United States for Europe my intention was to stay only a short time in London and Paris, then go into Germany to study but l found the students of Paris so fascinating that
