The oldest case of that kind l ever
saw happened last week. A young
woman came around to purchase some
articles for camping outfit; said she

Among her purchases were six

But the people only shrugged their
shoulders even when they heard--as
did the guards and the gentlemen-in-

nor bed like other people, but must be
taken by force. Well, happily it is no
business of ours!"
Then at the stair foot she sank
down by the sundial, almost fainting
with the sudden alarm and fear, crying
for the last time and yet more pierre
ingly. Maurice! Maurice! Come to
ME, Maurice!" Then above them in
the palace there began mighty
clamor, the noise of blows stricken
and the roar of many voices. But Ivan
of Muscovy was neither to be hurried
nor flurried. Impassive and determin-

His black charger changed his feet

Having won some of the highest honors in
the French art world Mile. Lavrut recently went
to London to give an exhibition of her paintings,
and, considering her great ability and the fact
that she has the backing of the king himself It is
not surprising that her visit proved more or less
of triumph. Commissions for portraits of lead
