Miss Clara Pagent was an artist.
She painted landscapes on canvas
that Is, she had painted single one.
and her grandmother. who had
brought her up from the age of nine
TO nineteen, had raised her hands
above her head and exclaimed:
How beautiful! There isn't an
artist In all America who could have
done better. It's just as natural as
II | stood looking at the real thing.
My. but | almost expect that COW to
throw up her head and bawl out!
Don't you ever think Of getting mar
ried, Clara. You just keep right on
painting such pictures as that"
The scene had been taken from
Thornapple hill, half mile from
the old red farm house. There was
spotted COW in the foreground. to-
gether with stump or two. Then
there were bushes and trees. and in
The perspective, as If one were look
ing through joint of stovepipe, was
duck sailing on a pond. II not told
Il was a duck 1t might have been
taken for the eagle that tapped his
wings and screamed at the battle OF
Bunker Hill.
II the cow had thrown up her head
and beloved 1t would have been with
pain. Her horns were longer than
her legs, and her tail would have
reached around haystack. The
.rees and bushes seemed to have been
sawed out for the occasion. and the
greensward was such as no herbiv-
orous animal ever yet grazed on. oh,
yes, 1t was an oil painting all right,
and 1t would be a mean person that
would criticize 1t to the face Of the
artist or grandmother.
1t was the artist herself who found
Just a teenty-weenty bit of fault.
She discovered that one of the eyes
of the COW looked up and the other
down, and this didn't seem quite
natural. The picture was taken back
to Thornapple hill for closer study.
The spotted COW could always be
found there, and 1t would not take
long to catch her true attitude. The
painting was on the easel and the

CAUSE OF plscoNTENT.

The poor man. or the man moderate
ly we'll to do. who makes the few
good books of a small collection the
companions of his home. and who
hangs upon the wall few pictures
having in them for him and his fam
lly meaning. a beauty and an inspir'
alton. is richer by far than the vulgar
captain who crowds a magnificent IL
brary with unread books and the I'M
appreciated works of painters and
sculptors Moreover. 1t is not easy
today to tell the rich mans child from
the poor mans child; they wear the
same kind of clothes. attend the same
schools. enjoy the same harmless lux
uries. and in all essential particulars
live upon terms of equality. says the
Seattle Post-Intelligencer. And SO
far as necessary material comforts are
concerned. the poor mans home Is not
different from the rich mans home.
What. then. Is the reason for the per
gasive discomfort of the hour? The
reason is to be found In false senti'
mepts and false opinions made posi-
Sle because the poor have been fool
ish enough. in a moment Of passion
and prejudice. to become jealous o.
the vulgar ostentation and unbridled
extravaganza of the foolish rint.

What She Thought Of Them.

1t is generally supposed that authors
are loath to compliment each others
work. But a recent opinion expressed
by Kate Douglas Wiggin proves the
contrary. in her case at least. A friend
not long ago asked the author of Re
becca" how, in her opinion. Rudyard
Kiplings Jungle Books" stood In
comparison with other young peoples
books which had been written during
the last ten years
They do not stand at ALL" replied
Mrs. Wiggin enthusiastically. They

ether! When people are dizzy with
Kipling's high attitudes they flop
down and read me-"

"Sir!" exclaimed the young lady. as
she sprang up In such confusion that
the easel was overturned and the
cow started to walk away.

"Yes."
"And the COW you saw was not like

According to Turkish diplomat
now in this country, the Turkish
women no longer keep their faces
covered in public. They go about as
they please. and make goo-goo eyes
and flirt just as women do elsewhere.
This is a great reform which Is said
to be pleasing to both sexes, but 1t is
