Nine Marie Anne Elisabeth Vigee Le-
brun was born in Paris on April Is, 1855.
Her father, Louis Vigee. was painter
in pastel. He began to teach her draw
ing almost before she was out OF the
cradle. This got the little girl into trou-
bic: for as she grew older she marked up
everything with pictures-Schoolbook
walls. clothes, and anything on which
colored chalk would show.
But one of these pictures, the sketch
of head, brought her good fortune. So
excellent was the little piece OF work
that. though Elisabeth was only seven
years old at the time. her father decided
she must become an artist. Not only was
this fortunate for her. but IL has bene-
fitted the rest of the world as well.
She was taught painting by Doyen and
Horace Vernet. But the greatest infiu-
ence in her art came from the carly
French painters, Watteau, Fragonard.
and Greuze. Their works she studied
carefully in the Louvre. Rubens. whose
famous series of paintings she saw in the
Luxembourg, also had IL powerful infiu-
enCe on the young artist.

Learn One Thing Every Day"
No. 3.-VIGEE LEBRUN.
BY HERSELF.

Of fifteen she was well known as n por-
trait painter and had many pictures to
her credit. Some time a little later her
great opportunity came. The rich and
influential Duchess de Chartres commits
stoned Lebrun to paint her portrait. 9th
er orders from those of noble rank fol-
lowed this one quickly, and portraits by
her became the vogue.
She was married to Jean Batiste Pierre
Lebrun when she was only nineteen
years old. In l7s5 she was elected to the
French Academy When the revolution
broke out in France, Mime. Lebrun fed
to Italy. At Naples she painted Lady
Hamilton. a famous beauty of the time.
Later she visited Germany. Russia. Eng
land. Holland. and Switzerland, painting
portraits OF rcigning princes and their
families, as well as Of the most famous
people of the time. She returned to
Her husband. Lebrun. seems to have
been a spendthrift. He wasted not only
his own money. but also the earnings OF
his wife. in dissipation. She lived apart
from him. and in 1918 he died.
Nine. Lebrun had been the favorite
painter of Queen Marie Antoinette, and
at the restoration of Louis XVIII she
became again court painter. At the age
Of eighty she painted remarkable por-
trait of her niece. Mime. Won Riviere. At
this time she published memoirs Of her
life. She died in Paris on March 60,

More than $50 portraits. 800 landscapes.
and 10 historical pictures comprise the
work OF Mime. Lebrun. Most of these
pictures are in private collections.
Many well-known people sat for her.
Lord Byron and Nine. de Stael were
among these. But she showed her inde
pendence of great people by offending
Napoleon when she Was about to paint
his sister, Caroline, the wife of Murat.
The portrait of Nine Lebrun and her
daughter was first exhibited in 1853. 1t
excited great attention and enthusiasm.
The pose OF the figures is charming. and
the refinement and elegance that mark
all the work Of Nine. Lebrun is shown
here strongly.

CULTIVATE HABIT OF
LOOKING PLEASED
1t Is Just as Easy to Form Helpful
Habits as Bad
Ones.

Cultivate habit of looking pleased.
1t is every bit as easy as frowning. and
helps you along twice as fast. If you
indulge in frowns people will get into
the habit of looking the other way when
you pass. which is mortifying to vanity.
Cultivate habit of truth-telling. Fib-
bing is no more than a habit-though a
horrid enc. Practice telling the truth
once day-once an hour-and then all
the time. You will be much better liked
if you do. and people will soon get into
habit OF believing you.
Cultivate a habit of honesty. I do not
mean as regards picking pockets. But II
you think it over you will soon discover
some way in which you regularly cheat

rcqucsts-or worse. of performing them

cheerfully. You will soon conquer that
bad habit of reluctance.
Are you in the habit of gossiping un-
kindly? If so. stop 1t. Go about saying
nice things instead. Not insincere nice
thinrs-just cultivate a habit of believing
all the nice things you say.
II is a matter of attitude of mind: and
one can grow accustomed to an upright.
straightforward. brisk attitude, just as
one can grow used mentally to STOPPING,
slouchinc. and stumbling through life.
Cultivate a habit of dressing well. You
can spare five minutes in the morning
for a little extra attention to your toilet:
YOU can spare five minutes more thought
in the choice of costume to suit your
style and complexion. If not clever in
this way. spare five minutes to consult
a friend whose taste you can trust.

Furry Is Bad Habit.
Cultivate a habit of resting. FURRY
and worry are bad habits that make
you and all others miserable. Let your
self sit still now and then, your hands
folded. your eyes closed. This is not idle
ness-it is healthgiving peace.
Collect your thoughts-their usual riot
of disorder is meaningless waste of
energy. Stop that incessant fidgeting-
that pretence of business.
Cultivate a habit of quiet thought

difficulties-cure many of your physical
ills.
Everything good or bad in you is mere
