QUENTIN MErYs.
How Love Changed . Great Black
smith Into Great Painter.

How Love Changed . Great Black
smith Into q Great Painter.
Love made Quentin Metys a painter.
This great Fleming. whom both Ant
werp and LGuyain claim 10 have given
birth, though the palm now rests with
I.ouynin. was the son Of an able black.
smith. Trained In his fathers craft,
tho younger Quentin soon distinguish.
ed himself By his work In this base
metal and among other matters turned
out the wonderfully delicate iFonw0rk
that surmounts the well outside the
Cathedral Of Antwerp. Already an ac-
knowledged master OF bis guild, it
came about. writes Helen Zlmmern IN
the Metropolitan Magazine, that the
young artisan fell In love with the
daughter Of rich Antwerp burgher.
When asked 10 consent TO a marriage,
however, the father would not hear Of
It, saying he could not let his daughter
wed blacksmith. Quentin next In
quired II he would feel the same objec-
ton to painter9 The good burgher,
who anticipated no change Of craft on
the Qnestioner's part, replied that there,
indeed. was a more refined profession.
What was his surprise and perhaps Sc
cret dismay when some months later
Quentin Metys reappeared and asked
for the fuIllllment of the old burgher's
promise. He had, indeed, become
painter and one already held in high
esteem. To commemorate his love and
his serving on her account Metys
hmned an "auto.portrait' that now
hangs Ia the UfIizI, at Florence. Those
acquainted with the secret know that
II they touch little spring In this
frame the panel opens like a door, and
behind the shelter Of Metys' own por-
trait IL concealed that Of his love and
wife, d sweet Dutch face for whom
doubtless he deemed It well worth his |
while to have played the part Of the |
patriarch Jacob.

A man on his first visit to 81. An
drews was much impressed by the
high standard Of efficiency which he
saw displayed on the greens by those
with whom he played. He studied the
actions of these heroes to see II he
could discover any common feature in
their methods, At last he saw light
He observed that they ali hold the left
hand more under the club when put
ting than they did when driving.
From this he deduced a rule Of con.
duct-''see the finger nails of the left
hand when addressed to the ball" For
the rest Of his stay, and 1t may be for
some time afterward, his own putting
improved considerably. London Post.

SUNSHINE BRINGS
 HOPE TO FAR MFRS

Marion. June 1O.-(Special. l.)-Sunshine has come to the stricken black belt and five days of continuous work on the farms has served to bring about hope for the most discouraged. The crop condi- tion at this time is deplorable, but with another week of fair weather the greater portion of crops will have been worked out. Marion presents the condition of a deserted village, every able-bodied per son being busy with the growing crops, and the merchant finds time to count his last years earnings and tell stories on the street corners.
 Marshal LeVert is away on vacation and J. w. Howie is serving in his ab- sence.

The visitors were entertained with a guessing contest, the winning prize going to Mrs Holman Bar ker, while the consolation prize was awarded to Mrs. A. J. Marshall. After delicious refreshments were served the guests were entertained with vocal and piano selections by Mrs. J. B. Hatchett and Mrs. NJ. J. Smith.

Paris June 10.-For several years Paris has not witnessed a spectacle of such pomp and magnihcence as yves seen at the funeral of NJ Chauchard, proprietor of the Magasins Du Louvre, from the Church of the Madeline. The church was besieged and it was estimated that con- siderably more than 5000O0 people crowded the streets along which the funeral pro- cession passed. While the good taste of NJ. Chauchards friends brought about the suppression of the gorgeous Louis NN- cavaleade that the deceased had planned, the obsequies were carried out on a truly royal scale.
 Starting from the Rue Velasquez the im- posing procession, escorted by squad- ron of cuirassers and several battalions of infantry, literally forced its way through the streets to the church The hearse, which was drawn by six black horses, was preceded by three funeral cars banked high with the rarest flowers and by 5000 employees of the Louvre store. The group of mourners behind the hearse consisted chiefly of his servants and bene- ficiaries under the will of M. Chauchard. One carriage with close-drawn blinds was occupied by Madame Boursin, who had been close friend of M. Chauchard for some 30 years.
 The crowds enjoyed the funeral as a spectacle rather than as a tribute. Here and there misses were heard from the rougher classes who had been melted by the socialist newspapers
