the greatest masterpiece his hand
had created.
1t was a full size portrait of Lii
sitting on a sofa wearing a gown of
white mousseline de sole and little
golden slippers. Her heavy hair was
braided and lay on her head like a
crown. and around her beautiful neck
she wore string of magnificent white
and blue Venetian pearls. She was
wonderfully beautiful, and her dream
ing eyes seemed already to be looking
into the mysterious beyond.
THE MEETING
Five years after her death Philippe

her back toward him looking at an old
etching on the wall.
At the sound of an unfamiliar voice
she turned around, and Philippe's heart
almost stopped beating, for he thought
he looked at Lili once more.
Mrs. Simpson was, indeed, somewhat
taller than Lii, but she had the same
oval face. the same full, red lips. and
gray, soulful, dreaming eyes. Their
expression when she looked at him
was quite different. for while Lii had
always preserved maidenly modesty,
Mrs. Simpsons eyes stared at the
artist almost boldly.
She was clever enough to notice the
strong impression the first sight Of her
had made, and, being familiar with

very carefully and was very particu-
lar to notice the points on which her
resemblance to the dead woman was
the strongest.
THE ONLY WOMAN
rs this the woman you have i'm
mortalized in most of your paint
ings?" she asked.
This Is the only woman I ever
loved. the woman / married, who
made me happy and is no more"
After a moments pause she added:
you resemble her
Il know that" she answered tact
lessly, and they talked of other sub
jects.
From then they met almost daily.
with the beautiful American At first
his conscience tortured him. He ac-
cused himself of being false to Lii,
but gradually he unconsciously mixed
the two together until they became
as one to his mind. 1t seemed to
him as If Lii had come back to life
In Mrs. Simpson, and he did not no.
tice how little this selfish, calculat-
ing woman resembled the modest,
unselfish wife he had lost.
In the meantime Mrs. Simpson
planned a coup which she hoped would
clinch her victory and prompt Philippe
to the proposal she had daily expected
in vain. She resolved to show him
how far more beautiful than Lii she
rival in Philippe's heart.
A few days later when the painter
The San Francisco call., 1913-11-12

most of Philippe's pictures, she imme-
diately understood the reason.
Mrs. Simpson was very ambitious,
and, possessing a considerable for
tune, she had made up her mind to
marry a famous man in order to be-
come leader of Paris~society. Her
first husband. an American of low
birth, whom she had always looked
down upon. had made a fortune in
venting a new kind of glass that
could not be broken.
To win the heart of the famous
artist now became her chief aim, and
when she had heard of his love and
the tragedy which had marred it she
considered the battle as good as won.
During the following weeks Phil
ippe met her very often. and every
time the impression which her resem
blance to his dead wife had made
upon his mind had deepened. One
day she asked him to visit her at her
home, and the invitation was eagerly
accepted.
She received him in her magnifi-
cent salon, on the wall Of which he
found reproductions of some of his
most famous paintings, and, though
he pretended not to notice them, his
vanity was fattered.
A few days later Mrs. Simpson re-
turned the call. dropping in at Phil
ippe's studio one afternoon for tea.
and the first object which caught her
eye was the portrait of Lii stand
Ing on an easel. She examined It

entered Mrs. Simpsons salon he was
shocked. The feeling of seeing Lii
before him was stronger than ever.
The young widow was reclining on
sofa dressed in clinging gown of
mousseline de sole. On her feet were
little golden slippers, her hair was
braided like queenly crown around
her head and around her neck she
wore string of white and blue vene-
tian pearls.
In moment the scales fell from
his eyes and he understood the part
this woman had been playing for the
last three months. and the only feel
ing that remained in his heart now
was one of repulsion and disgust At
the same time he noticed that Mrs.
Simpsons features were far coarser
than Lili's and that her eyes lacked
soul
HE TELLS HER
do you like me in these surround
ings?" Mrs. Simpson asked. in voice
that betrayed how sure she felt of her
triumph.
Philippe, who was inwardly praying
his wife to forgive him for having
been even momentarily unfaithful to
her memory, replied Jelly:
NO. madame, the gown is not be-
coming to you. 1t was made for a
much younger person. / never noticed

chin. A really intelligent person will

difference"
