THE HLAST SUPPER"
Singular Story Of the MASTERPIECES OF
Leonardo da Vinci.

Moldering away on the wall Of the
old monastery in Milan, Italy, hangs
the famous Last Supper" Of Leonardo
da Vinci Like every masterpiece, the
painting required many years Of pa.
tient labor, and as result of that
labor it is perfect in its naturalness
of expression and sublime in it's story
of love. In addition to these qualities,
it has an incident in it's history that
contributes not little toward making
1t the great teacher that it is.
1t is said that the artist, in painting
the faces of the apostles, studied the
knew. When, however, he was ready
to paint the face of Jesus in the pic,
ture he could find none that would
satisfy his conception. The face that
would serve as model for the face of
Christ must be dignified in its sim
plicity and majestic in its sweetness.
After several years of careful search
the painter happened to meet one,
Pietro Bandinelli, a choir boy of ex-
quisite voice, belonging to the cathe-
dral. Being struck by the beautiful
features and tender manner that be-
spoke an angelic soul, the artist In
duced the boy to be the study for the
painting of the face of Jesus.
All was done most carefully and
reverently, but the picture was as yet
incomplete. for the face Of Judas was
absent. Again the painter, with the
zeal of true lover of his art, set about
In search of a countenance> that might
serve for the face of the traitor Some
years passed before his search was re-
warded and the picture finally COM
pleted. AS the artist was about to dis
miss the miserable and degraded
wretch who had been his awful choice
the man looked up at him and said,
You have painted me before" Hor.
riied and dumb with amazement, the
painter learned that the man was Pie
tro Bandinelli. During those interven.
ing years Pietro had been at Rome
studying music, had met with evil
companions, had given himself up to
drinking and gambling, had fallen into
shameful dissipation and crime. The
face that now was the model for the
face of Judas had once been the model
for the face of Christ. - Brooklyn

The waiter was bringing in what APP

roustabouts call smoked beef tongue

He tripped at the door and spilled the
tongue and green's on the carpet. The

all, especially the waiter, by saying
jovially: There's no harm done. gen

Among the guests was a Broadway

give a dinner the following week, with
about the same guests, and, as | hap
pened to learn afterward. he had di-
rected his servant to let fall piece of

A Season When the Sun Never Sets
on the Stars and Stripes.


There is only one flag that the sun
never sets on-the British But the
American flag Is close second, for
the sun during half the year never sets

are the only flags that the sun is con-
tinuously shining over, no matter what
his position in the heavens-the one all
the year round and the other during
exactly half the year, from March % to
Sept %.
OF course 1t Is true that on no day at
all during the year can the sun be seen
from any two points of continental
United States at all times during a
period of twenty-four hours. But the
United States naval observatory has
made careful calculations which by in
