~ Charm and graciousness.
The only woman, so far as known,
who has had the temerity to run coun-
ter to mans ideas on the subject and
invade his special field as a scenic
painter is Miss Grace n. Wishaar, of
Oakland, Cal. A devotee Of art, with
out sufficient funds to continue her
studies, she wisely decided to choose
work in which were the best financial
prospects. The work is very hard from
physical standpoint, for the canvases
are frequently 30 feet high and so feet
wide, and the swaying, swinging bridge
on which the artist stands while lay
ing on the paint in great, sweeping
strokes is calculated to try the nerves.
When Miss Wishaar first made appli-
cation for the work in New York she
was advised to GO home and take up
embroidery or some equally distinc-
lively feminine occupation. Her sue
cess was a delightful surprise to her
friends and her fame is growing.-The

AS 1T MIGHT HAVE BEEN.

Would Modern Writers Have Writ
ten "Romeo and Juliet Thust
The large simplicity Of the theme
won d be frittered away by Dickens,
and every opportunity for deliberate
patlios would be insisted upon. Prob
ably Juliet would die in blank verse
disguised as prose, says Brander Mat
thews in Scribner's. But Mercutio, al
though he would certainly cease to be
a gentleman, would be a most amusing
personality, whose whimsical behavior
would seem highly laughable; and the
nurse might become another Mrs.
Camp with a host of peculiarities
realized with abundant humor. And 1t
IS possible also to make guess at the
treatment which would have been ac-
corded to the pitiful tale if Thackeray
had undertaken it. The tragedy would
have softened into a tragi-comedy with
a happy ending probably, the loving
couple being reprieved somehow in the
final chapters just before the kindly
author put his puppets away after
preaching a last gentle sermon on the
vanity Of life. The background would
be the British society of the middle of
the nineteenth century and some lady
Kew, delightfully."- clever and selfshly
arrogant, might be the chief of one
clan, and some Lord Steyne, bitter and
maSte rful, might head the rival house.
And not improbably the narrator might
be Mr.. Arthur Pendennis himself.
Perhaps, Mr.. and Mrs. March might
consti" lte the chorus, if Mr., Howells
were to lay the scene here in New
York, bringing one family from the
west, endowed somehow with certain
elemental largeness of mold and inn
porting the other from that New Eng
for the sensitiveness of their self-tor
turing consciences. There would be
lao blinking Of the minor selfishness Of
humanity; and neither hero nor
heroine would stand forth fiawless.
Their failures would be very human;
and the author would withhold all COM
ment, leaving the veracity of the por-
trayal to speak for itself. There would
lie unrolled before the reader the broad
panorama of the cosmopolitan metrop
oils infinitely variegated, often harsh
in color but forever fascinating in tie
intensity of its vitality. The modern
tragedy with its catastrophe, internal
rather than external, would be laid
befOra us in a narrative containing end
less miracles of delicate observation
and countless felicities of delicate
Dhrasing
