painted three portraits. 1t is told in

"In view Of the number Of sittings
Whistler wanted and his severe treat
ment Of his models. l 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
a 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
of the mistress. and. if the picture still
exists, there it probably remains"

Europe Still Lays Behind.

Laundrymen today are prosper
ons. Their work comes with I'M
failing regularity. They can count
on their customers and their Gus
toners count on them. Next to
the supplying of food and clothing
the laundry business is the most
stable in America.
The men engaged in the business
are men of intelligence ability and
worth, who prize system, organiza-
ton; and into their work they even
put a deal of art.
Some of these laur1dries are very
sumptuously fitted up with tile
floors and walls, spacious offices
with all modern appliances and val
liable automobile service for cob
Letting and making deliveries.
No country in the world has car
ried the laundry business to the
same degree of perfection that the
United States has. Europe still
lags behind, and in many first class
European hotels the washerWoman
will come in person and solicit your
patronage, just as she used to do
in America, % or 80 years ago,
The thing that has brought the
change and put it on a firm finan-
cial Foundation is Yankee inven-
tive genius. Ask George Westing-
