Rosa aonheur's Humble Lover.

When asked why she had never mar
ried Rosa Bonheur always answered.:
Nobody ever fell in love with me. /
have never been truly loved" More
than one man, however, really worship
ed her. But she inspired such deep re-
spect that no man seems to have dared
to reveal his feelings to her. There is
a curious example of this fact, taken
from the humble walks of life. On
several occasions Rosa BOnheur had
done service for workingman who
throughout his life spent his savings
In buying engravings of her principal
pictures and photographs Of herself.
His simple dwelling was temple to
her kindness. He described himself
as ''the earthwOrm in love with a
star" The person here referred to-
E. A. Bautray of Clermont-Fe rrand-
tells me that Rosa Bonheur once asked
him why he was not married, and he
replied by asking her the same ques-
ton. Here was her answer: well,
sir, it is not because | am an enemy
of marriage, but / assure you that
have never had time to consider the
subject" - "Reminiscences of Rosa
BOnheur"
