the hardest part Of his early struggles
by designing advertisements for n
commercial house. There have been
MANY more perhaps. but the most con-
spicuous on record Ia Bastien Lepage,
who through this very fact was forced
into fame. He was pursued by N
ciful disaster through his youth 10 his
efforts to study art. His mother worked
In the fields to keep a sickly boy II
school. At fifteen he went alone to
Paris, starved for seven years, painted
without success. but still-paintsd. He
had Just finished a picture to send to
the Salon when Paris was besieged,
and he rushed with his comrades to
the trenches.
On the first day a shell fell into his
studio and destroyed his picture. and
another shell burst at his feet, wound
Ing him. He was carried home and lay
III and Idle for two years. Then he re-
turned to Paris and, reduced to abso-
lutte want, painted cheap fans for @
living.
One day q manufacturer Of some pat
emit medicine ordered q picture from
him to illustrate its virtues. Lspage,
who was always sincere. gave his best
work to this advertisement. He paint
ed a landscape In the April sunlight.
The leaves Of tender green Quivsred In
the breeze. A group Of beautiful young
girls gathered around a fountain from
which the elixir of youth sprang In o
bubbling stream. Lepage believed there
was real merit In II.
LET me offer 1t at the Salon2 p he
asked his patron.
The manufacturer was delighted.
"But frst paint a rainbow arching over
the fountain" he said. with the name

Lepage refused.
Then ! will not pay you q sou for
the picture"
The price Of this picture meant bread
for months, and the painter had long
needed bread. The chance Of admis.
sion to the salon was small. He heal
tated. Then he silenced his hunger and
carried the canvas TO the salon. IL was
admitted.
Its great success insured Lepake
public recognition. and ais later work
gained him a place among tbs greatest
OF living artists.

to Quay county last December for
the benefit of her health, and dur.

ness she was entirely helpless. She
was SO years of age, spending the
major part of her life in Michigan,
where the family accumulated a

M. w. Bates and wife attended

Many contracts have been made
for spring deliveries at good fig

the grass will be good and the
stockmen will reap a good crop Of
calves, and the farmers an abund-

So, all in all. Quay county will

with strong force, and their blockade
of the Potomac became more rigid than
ever The officer in command of the
Potomac fiotilla was Obliged to officially
announce the humiliating fact that the
Potomac River, the main avenue of
supplies for the army. was closed to
navigation. Looking at the matter in
the light of today, it is impossible to
find the slightest reason for Mcclellan
permitting this. He had, OH the Vir-
ginia side of the Potomac, within easy
reach of the blOckadinf batteries, more
than 100, 900 effective men and in a
single day could have cleared out the
Potomac as far as Aqua Creek. The
sole reason given at the time was his
old story OF preparing for a short. sharp,
decisive movement which would end the
war at one blow. To have cleared out
the blockading batteries would not in
any manner have compromised his cam
paign; on the other hand it would have
saved us much OF the imminent danger
