Her name vas Susan Anna, but her
lover re-christened her Castillo. If he
had been a plumber or a paper-hang-
err he would probably have called her
his "btack-eyed Susan" but he was "A

They met at an afternoon tea, and
sat talking in a little shaded alcove be-
hind some tall palms. The atmosphere
was heavy with the perfume of roses.

was broken by h thin, airy treble of

was very glad that the lamp-shade
was not blue or green. They discov-
cred in those ten undistrubed moments
that they were absolutely sympathetic;
they worshipped the same authors,
adored the same things to eat.
Fancy you being an artist" said
Castillo, with a fascinating note of awe
in her voice. Il dare say o have a
lovely studio, with painted windws and
rusty armor, and old tapestry and
medaevial chairs"
Perkins smiled cynically. II have a
studio" he answered, but the p
ties you speak of exist only in the inn

like the strict truth, crude and hard,

"Ah, yes" she said alphabetically,
but you will be a great artist some
day"
II hope so. 1 mean to be-" he said,
modestly and firmly.
At this moment the paternal friend
appeared and told Castillo that her
chaperon aunt desired her presence inn

very charming a by the way, but
James Henry hated him on the spot.
Flo several days after that James

happened that Castillo could not easily
forget the man who had SO plainly Civ

her lovely. She reflected that for a
long time h had really been intending
to have her portrait painted, and she
was quite sure that Mr.. Perkins had a
great deal of talent, not that she had
any special interest in him, but she was

one night When he was feeling par
ticuiarly miserably happy. he went te
the opera. CHANGING over the house, he
saw Castillo in a box with the chaper-
onSaunt. She wore a gown that, was
X the sunbeams yelled in mist, anl
shining stones sparkled in her dark
halr. In the background lurked the
detested p%aternal friend. and by Cas-
tllla's side was a man James Henry had
many times lately. He was fiorid
and stout. and had the air of one al
peace with the world and himself.
Suddenly James Henry's quick cal
caught her name; two men behind him
were speaking of her.
He is a milliOnaire-made more
money by m~ining-definite affair, I'm
told"
Why should She yoke herself un.
| equally with that stalled ox?" said the
| other man.
"Oh, 1 don't know. Money always
marries money!"
James Henry leveled his glass at the
chorus, but 1T was a confused blur; he
paid no heed to the prima donna, all
though she was singing divinely. AZ
ter the curtain fell he rose left the
house.
Ee was now obliged to confess to him
self that unless Castillo returned his
love, life would not be worth living;
out he had no reason to suppose that
she did; n what had he, who was just
beginning to make his name known,
to offer her? 1t was by reason of these
inward cogitations that James Henry
became acquainted with The chill, gray
dawn which crept through the windows
each morning and greeted his %sleepless
eys.
"Oh, Mr.. Perkins. are you i'll, .have
you had bad news?" falteved Castillo,
at her next sitting.
Il am not ill.," said James Henry
coldly. He looked towards the chaper-
on-aunt, who had fallen into a gentle
doze; then he ~blundered desperately,
"but-but-I am going far away"
Going away! Why are you going
far away? cried Castillo, with "A sob
in her voice.
Because l love you. Castillo. with all
my soul; because 1 will not be 80 sell
fish and cowardly as to ask you to mar
ry me-, when j have nothing to offer
you, so am leaving you forever"
Nothing to offer! Leaving me for

scorn and Amusement. You don't re-

a very unrOmantic person., and she ex-
pressed her opinion In very strong
terms. She was the only one, however,
and her opposition did not count for
much.
So Castillo and James Henry were
married, n fancied that they were
destined to live in a state Of ideal bliss
ever afte--only they did not.
In the first place james Henry was
a very ambitious man and absorbed in
his work, and Castillo, instead of being
properly delighted in his industry, was
offended, for she was young and foolish
and eXacting.
The artist sat many hours in his stu
dio, and when the light faded and he
could no longer paint, he thought much
of his work, and was often p~reoccupied
and absent-minded, and Castillo was
firmly convinced that had ceased to
love her, and sought once more the So
ciety she had characterized as frivolous
and empty-headed.
Her portrait was finished in time for
the academy, and all London rushed to
see it, and went into raptures over 1t.
And Castillo was very. very proud of
him, but she would no tell him SO.
HE would think it's only because he's
become famous"
She might have said one little word
Of appreciation, and not have been SO
utterly, h~eartlessly Indifferent thought
James Henry bitterly.

No Credit in His Pupil.

Miss Harriet Hosmer. the noted
American sculptor, was talking at her
Watertown residence about celebrities
she had known. OF a certain noted New
Yorker she said:
HE was an awkward dancer. but he
told me once that he had taken dancing
lessons in Boston. His teacher was a
charming old Frenchman, a true artist.
and when he came to leave Boston he
said to the old man:

companionable a
When James Henry was made a
of this decision of Castillo, he promptly
turned his great historic picture to the
wall. He would. for a season. cease
chasing the will-o-the-wisp-Fame-
and paint the droop Of Castilia's eye-
lids and the urves of her lovely mouth.
Castillo did not find him so campan-
iOnable as she had hoped during the
sittings. For one thing, he looked at
her with a certain critical, professional
CLEAN in his eyes, and for another. he
scarcely talked to her at all, and 1t was
very .tiresome sitting in position SO
long, but she obtained some consolation
from the reflection that he had probab-
ly stood in awe Of her aunt, a vast,
pin-cushiony woman. with a skin 80
white and unwrinkled that it instantly
suggested complexion masks and an
unfeeling heart.
The aunt did not approve Of James
Henry, nor of her niece's wild idea of
having her portrait painted by an OBJ
scure young artist.
"She treats him as though he were a
c-c-cater-pillar, sobbed Castillo on her
pillow, land he is so poor. so deserving.
SO m-m-much in love with me-"
James Henry, in the meantime. was
miserably happy. He was desperately
in love with Castillo, and his affection,
he knew was absolutely hopeless. This
made. him miserable. He was doing
excellent work On her portrait, n he
saw her twice a week. These facts
made him happy.
