younp woman was the Princess Ena.
Some peonle scoff at the idea of love
at first sight, but there have been
many cases of this phenomenon of the
affections, nevertheless. Painters
seem to have been particularly given
to sudden love. Everybody Knows the
story Of Sir Joshua Reynolds devotion
for Angelica Kaufman, the only
woman r.. a. who was eve elected.
She came to his studio n day with
a friend, and, It is said. the great
painter fell instantly in love with her.
He always called her Miss Angel
John Opie, another great portrait
painter. who lies in st. Paul'S cath
edral, fell in love at first sight with q
wealthy and very gifted lady, Miss
Anderson, and, although he was of
peasant birth, and never got the bet-
ter Of his rugged style n manner,
she accepted him, n the marriage
was exceedingly happy Mrs. Opie died
hut when Opie first saw her she was
dressed in a robe of blue, her neck
and arms bare, and or her head a
small bonnet set sideways in coouet-
fish style, and s~ur1nounted by a plume
of three white feathers! She had love-
iy hair, too, hanging in rich tresses
over her shoulders. The artist became
her avowed lover that very night, but
he was not accepted. and had to try
again and again.
Proposal by Signal.
The great Gainsborougf, the painter
of the celebrated Stolen Duchess and
The Blue Boy, and many lovely land
scapes, fell in love at a glance! He
was painting a landscape near Sud-
bury, when he was interrupted in his
work by a lady coming between him
and the sunlight. Her shadow fell up-
on his work, for she was wholly UNI
conscious that she was i~nterrupting a
work of genius. Gainsborough looked
up, perhaps thinking 1t was a COW that
was wondering by. 1t happened to be
a very attractive woman, with whom
the artist was instantly sInitten. She
proved a very helpful wife, and used
to a v every scrap OF work her hus-
band did, although he would dash off
a lovely sketch and fling 1t under the
table. These cast-offs brought a large
sum at auction after the artists death
Burns was of course, a famous lover,
but 1t may be that he was never more
genuinely in love than on the very
first occasion, and then he fell in love
in a moment. He calls her "a bonnie
sweet, sonsie lassie," and they were
making hay together. He says: Il did
not know myself why l liked TO loiter
behind with her, why the tones Of her
voice made my heart strsags thrill like
an Aeolian harp, and tstieularlv why
my pulse beat such furious rattan
when ] looked and d sered over her
little hand to pick out the cruel nettle-
strings and thistles." 1t was to her
that he made his very first song. So
that he says with me began love and
poetry"

Newcomer"
"Ohs that guys something awful. He
won't listen to anything a Teller has to
say, Here's what he'll say to me, six
months IN the brfdewell; good uight!'
That's what he'll say to me-
Half an hour later the boy. his head
hanging down, was led into court. The
clerk called h case of George Nolan,
charged with larceny and diserderly
conduct. The boy raised his head and
looked in wonder at the Judge on the
bench.
'Why-er-why.D he stammered and
then almost collapsed. I'm the Teller
that called o all those bad names,
Judge, but 1 didn't know 1T was you

The Judge smiled and then heard the
evidence against the boy.

he said finally. Instead OF sending
you out TO the brideweIl for six months
I'm going to send you only for two
