Feats of a Portrait Painter.

Mr. Hubert Vos, the famous portrait
painter. told me weird story the other
day about an incident in his experience. A
footman in livery called at his studio one
afternoon and presenting the card of a
lady well known In New York society said
that she would Ike Mr. Vos to come imme
dlatey 10 her house a matter of the
greatest Importance II was imperative that
he should come at once and carriage was
waiting TO convey him. He seized his hat
and overCoat. jumped into the carriage and
was driven rapidly across Central Park to
a handsome residence on one of the streets
running at right angles to upper 9th ave-
nue.. lie was shown into a reception room
where he was soon Joined by the lady
whose card had been sent him She ex-
planned that her husband was dying in his
chamber upstairs. that he had only a few
hours 10 live: that they had no picture OF
him, not even a photograph, and she was
anxious to have Mr.. Vos to make sketches
of his face so that he could reproduce them
after death IN an oil portrait. The artist
naturally hesitated about accepting such an
extraordinary commission, but the lady
seemed SO distressed and so anxious that
he finally consented 10 do as she wished
He was shown to the death chamber and
spent an hour or more by the bedside TAX
ing measurements of the features sketch
Ing the pale lace that lay unconscious on
the pillow. and the nurse even lifted the
eyelids so that he could see the color OF the
eyes. lie learned that there was no photo
graph OF MS UNCONSCIOUS sitter IN existence,
But only a daguerreotype taken when he
was a child, which of course was of no
use.
The man died five hours later. The por-
trait was painted from the deathbed
sketches, the widow making suggestions
and furnishing information about the color
and expression OF the face and the pose of
the figure. The likeness was perfectly sat
isfactury to the family. the portrait was
much admired. and a careful COPY now
hangs IN the library OF one OF the most
popular clubs I'm New York. OF which the
subtcr; was president at the time OF his
death. Nobody knows suspects that 1t
was not painted from life.
Mr.. Nos had another interesting expe-
rience Ia painting a portrait of the son OF
one of the most prominent men In this
country. who died when he was sixteen
years Old. The family had no likeness ex-
cept a Photograph taken when he was a
child of rine. and they wanted n picture
representing him as nearly as possible as

AS buildings are now constructed and
overheated, many people have to spend at
least part of their waking hours In a
fetid atmosphere. But there Is no ex-
cuse for sleeping in such an atmosphere
We spend one-third of our lives in sleep
we also breathe more deeply when asleep
than when awake. and we should sleep in
the open air. or as near to 1t as possible
Walk through a residence street at night
and look at the bedroom windows; they are
all tightly closed. Occasionally one Is a
stingy three or four inches down from the
top. This Is done by some advanced indi-
vidual to let out the bad air. If all the
bad air went out of that room there would
be no air left. There should be no bad air
In bedroom. Every window and door Of
the bedroom should stand wide open every
night In the year. The air should be the
same inside as outside. While asleep the
lungs should be connected with outside air

the body warm at night just we put on
sufficient clothing to keep it warm when we
go outside. Only the face Is exposed under
both conditions.
