August slipped by, and September
came In with the Dog star dying hard.
Despite the heat, they really were
very comfortable in their new abode
high up in one Of the great apartment
hotels overlooking the park. Eunice
had never appeared lovelier. All her
good points were enhanced by the
pretty toilets In which she felt she
could now indulge, and with feminine
%quickness she soon adapted herself
and her personal adornments to her
new circumstances. OF n thing she

escape the keen scrutiny OF old John
Trevecca. But never a word said he.
One evening, after a scorching hot
day, when all the city to the south
ward lay shredded in a steaming haze
of heat. Eunice and her father, having
Just finished dinner, were sitting at
the open window in the fas~t-deepening
twilight, the old man pulling at a
great meerschaum pipe which had
been one of Wills earliest gifts in his
opulent days.
"A gentleman to see Mr.. Trevecca,"
announced the voice OF a maid
servant out of the dusk OF the inner
ROOM.
Who do you suppose 1t al be?"
said Eunice. switching on the lights.
Did the gentleman give any name?"
she inquired.

see Mr.. Trevecca personally" was the
reply.
Old John rose heavily out Of his
spacious chair and went shutting into
the reception-room, closing the door
him. A young man rose upon
entrance. saying:
my names Matthews, Mr.. Trevec-
ca. I've looked you up because there's
a friend Of mine who I fancy is a
friend of yours also, and who needs
attention-Wilfrid Stennis."
"Eh, lad ZEE doan't say SOL" rumbled
the old fellow. "An' what do zee says

We'll sir, as far as ! al make

CHAPTER xI.

The summer swooped down on New
York in the latter days OF June with
a rush, as is its wont. The walls Of
the new house on Riverside drive
we're up to the heavy cornices, and
the roof was closed in, for Eunice had
given orders that the work was not
to be stopped nor the original plans
one whit altered.
Nearly every afternoon she and old
John would drive up there after the
heat Of the day, for, having made the

feet mania for dining on its covered
piazza, and so there was usually re-
served for the young beauty and her
rough and rugged escort his fayorite
corner.seat. whence they could see the
noble river losing itself in the haze
northward.
On one vi these trips, as they drove
slowly past the mansion, Eunice
was sure she saw Wilfrid walking
away with hasty strides, his back
towards them.
Poor fellow" she sighed. How
he must miss it all! What a dreadful
change for him to go back to the life
he always hated so!"
For by dint Of careful inquiries she
had found out that Stennis had APP

A Painters Anarchy.

A great revolutionary movement be.
gan when Edouard Manet discovered
that It was possible to produce master
ly paintings without adhering to GER
tain academic formulas which de-
manded traditional combinations of
light and shade, and restricted the
range of the painters activity to the
subjects belonging to grand art"
Constant repetition Of these formulas
had blinded the eyes Of the public,
and when Manet burst upon them
with what was considered a riot OF
bright colors undivided by dingy
shadows, and when he, moreover.
dared to find his subjects among the
actualities of common" everyday life.
he brought upon himself an unpre-
cedented storm Of rid.cule. His pic.
lures were banned from public ex-
hibitions, abused by the critics, jeered
at by the public and left unsold In his
studio. But Manet, a man Of tre-
mendous force and character, perse-
vered on the path he had deliberately
chosen, and after many years bitter
struggle won success and fame.-New
