A Tardily Developed Artist
Lester Eddy, father Of ]. Spencer
Eddy. brother Of M7s. Marshall Field,
has made triumpltant debut into the
field OF art. MnEddy spent forty
years amassing !. fortune as the most
aristocratic grocerdn Chicago. After
that he tried soEiety, and found II
bored him. Then hes decided to. be-
come q portrait painter, being at that
time sixty years :Aef, ago. VI .5
The society friends to whom he con-
fided his ambition, SCORED; but he re-
mained determined. A few years ago
he came to- Paris and fitted up lux
urious studio near Mrs. Marshall
Fields, beautiful home.:' He went
quietly and earnestly to- work; and
this year he sent several of his pic
lures to, the salon. Now society is
applauding him here.
]. Spencer Eddy, who married Miss
Spreckles Of California. is known
throughout two continents as the best
dressed man in the American diplo-
matte service. He is exceedingly
proud Of his fathers talent. Looking
at Mr.. Eddy's alert and energetic face
under its crown Of snow-white hair,
romping about with his tiny grand
son, 1t seems impossible that he
should have achieved such artistic
success. considering the fact that be-
tween the ages Of eighteen and sixty
he never gave thought to art.
DR.. Henry G: Roland, formerly a
surgeon. in the United States army,
and author Of the book 'Germaine,' -
~hich created so much discussion
asst winter as to its moral tone. has
placed on order for a boat large
enough to cruise to India. He expects
to make a. protracted tour Of the far
east for the purpose Of studying the
oriental conception of the spirit world.
He has been living in Paris for the
last few years and has devoted con-
siderable time to psychical research.
