 the sculptor, a Massachusetts girl who
 now has her studio in New York city. That judge of people and things. Thon- as w. Lawson. pronounces her one of the most successful living dilineators Of animal life. He has given her vart-
 ous commissions. Miss Hyatt first came
 Into notice by the massive and powerv
 full pair of bulls modelled for the out
 door decorations of the St. Louis ex- position. At the Portland fair a group
 of huge and lifelike elephants testified
 to her skill as a sculptor. In the
 course of her animal studies Miss Hyatt has had an elephant squirt a
 shower of saliva upon her through its
 trunk and a camel spit at her, which
 it did quite as successfully Rs tho ele- phant, though 1t had no trunk Miss seems to be the work horse, which has
 never in America received the atten-
 tion 1t desarved as an art subject.
 Mrs. Sally James Farnham has ac-
 compiished the unusual in becoming a
 successful sculptor without much of the preliminary foreign training or the
 ordinary art student. Four years ago she was very III. and during a tedious convaiescence her husband brought her some modelling materials where with to while away the time. Like a flint spark in finder this struck fire to her waiting artistic talent, and she
 began work in earnest. Her best
 known piece so far Is the soldiers and
 sailors monument at Ogdensburgs, N. Y. Mrs. Farnham lieves at Great Neck, | N. Y.
 An American woman sculptor and
 woman's right have alike enjoyed a | triumph in the acceptance by the Metropolitan Art Museum of New York of Adelaide Johnson's portrait bust of Susan B. Anthony. The bust is a I beautiful one. expressing the power and loftiness that sixty years fighting for a principle would naturaI4v carve upon a human face. The bust was | presented to the museum by Mir and Mrs. Murray W. Ferris.

BETTY's EXPERIENCES.

Dear Kate:-If your letter was writ
ten the day before Christmas, mine
may safely be called ''the day after. -
Yours was the first thing my eyes be
held on entering the house this even
ing, after long. hard horseback ride
up the canyon, during which | quite
tired myself out-and | shall answer it
before going to bed.
Dear, it was good TO sit down by the
fireplace and have you talk to me n
little while-only | should like it to
he the real you instead of letter. OF
course il is all right that you did not
have me at Christmas dinner. | didn L
even think of your not inviting me, and
If you had, this is perhaps the ono
time in my life when | could not come.
Mother and the girls had Christ
mas dinner, too. Clara and Jennie each
invited her sweetheart, and mother had
the rector. You know she quotes him
almost as much as she does father. so
you can see how well she likes him.
And father, to keep up his end Of the
table, invited dear old Doctor Bull; and
he and the doctor talked nothing but
real estate from the time he entered
the house until he left 1t. Imagine, And
on Christmas day, at that, Fortunate

this is why:
At breakfast, q week ago. when tho
various members were deciding whom
to invite for Christmas dinner went

sheer physical weariness; and when
Christmas actually came, in no way fit
to keep the day as it deserves TO be
kept. You know bodily weariIess re.
acts on the brain. and finally even the
spirit is discouraged,
So ! decided that, at 80, one is old
enough TO know ones own mind-and
struck.
After each one had decided what he
or she intended TO do, Clara turned &c
me with such evident effort TO con.
