There is an Indianapolis attorney
who is known for his dignity and who
rarely INDUCES in ''flowery'' oratory in
arguing a case. Some years ago. how
ever, he was engaged in a murder case
in which the guilt of the prisoner was
apparent, and the lawyers friends ad-
vised him to be 'flowery" in an effort
to appeal to the sentiment Of the jul
rors So the attorney took his friends
advice.

treatment Of Lady Meux. of whom he
painted three portraits. 1t is told in
Thomas Ways memoirs Of Whis
tier"
'In view of the number Of sittings
Whistler wanted and his severe treat
ment Of his models. | think it enor
mously to the credit Of Lady Meux that
she should have continued through two
and started on the third portrait in
which she was painted wearing a
mantle Of Russian sables, There was
story that. being one day not up to
the mark. she sent her maid to stand
for her. dressed in the sables. This so
offended Whistler that promptly the
maids face appeared in place Of that
