the age Of thirty-one.
Up to the time he was thirty-th
there is nothing to show that Frans
Halls produced anything worthy Of at
tention;; but he evidently worked to
some purpose. His marvellous capac-
ity for catching an expression on the
instant brought him many patrons.
It was just about that time that.
the great demand for huge group por-
traits had set In, and Halls protited by
It. He agreed to give those who con-
tributed the largest sum toward the
group the important places in the
composition, which rivalry increased
many times the prices he would 9TH
erwise would have received, and also
freed him from subsequent complaint
They were jovial folk, those men Of
Frans Halls time, and he loved to
paint them as they were.
He had a season Of real prosperity,
and might have become rich; but aft.
er time the commissions interfered
with his drinking, and that was some
thing that Frans could not endure.
He loved the tavern better than the
studio; but his mastery over the
brush enabled him to produce a vast
amount Of work in very short time,
He lived better. however, to paint the
jolly topers and the fisherwives than:
the rich burghers. The time came
when he "sweated" his many pupils,
making them draw and paint subjects
for which he paid them little or moth
ing, which he sold at fair prices to
meet his weekly tavern bills. u :. :.
From the time he was thirty-three
until he was fifty he lived in Haar-
lem. His love of the tavern increased.
He grew poorer and poorer; but con-
tinued to paint. His love of bright
colors seemed to disappear entirely;
until finally he was painting in gray
shadows with back grounds in almost
jet black. Some say 1t was because
he could not afford to buy colors.
When he was seventy years old a
baker, who not only gave him bread
but lent him money as we'll, appealed
to the courts to compel Halls to pay his
debts. The painters house was seized

thousands.

For truth of character Frans Halls
was the greatest painter that ever
lived; but it took the world an in
terminably long time to discover it.
A hundred and twenty years after his
death one of his great portraits
brought only $1.25 at a sale. He was
an aristocrat by birth and disrepu-
table by choice. Members of his fam
lily were burgomasters, treasurers, and
aldermen of Harlem for nearly three
hundred years. Frans and his broth
eff Dirk were frequenters of the lowest
taverns, and this is about all we
know Of him from the time he was
born in 1880 until he was married at

aThe Laughing Cavalier Is the
most famous and best liked Of the
paintings Of Frans Halls. And the
Cavalier himself is most familiar too
in glance, in manner, in bearing. No
one can resist the bold challenge Of
those mischieyous eyes, the full. life
loving lips. He swells with wonder
full conceit in himself. and a CHEEKY
disdain of the world in general. It is
altogether a marvellous study of ex-
preston. In 1865 Sir Richard Wal
lace gave $4,000 for the portrait.
The HARLEM collector, who had own
ed it, paid $500 for 1T. It's value now
would probably be in the hundred
thousands. ~ a,s5 ss

That Boy of Yours.

The American Magazine has an ap-
pealing article entitled, "What My
Boy Knows''-the confession of a
father.
Father was city man, respectable,
we'll meaning, comfortably fixed but
busy; and mother was pious, gener-
GUS, over-indulgent. The consequence
was that the son went pretty much
his own way. -of course; the easiest
way. He became not exactly a fall
len boy, as we use the adjective upon
a girl, but boy with his better ma
ture curdled-a lad inclined to be
blase, cynical. The kind of chap on
the way to become a, "Johnnie' or a
cadet-one of the 100 men who pay
or steal the shameful wages of each
fallen women.
An incident revealed to the father
the lads drift and dad forthwith sat
up; realized he'd been neglected;
that the fault was as much his as
the boys, and took steps to reclaim
the youngster before the damage had
become irreparable.
We do not recommend or quite ap-
preciate this fathers remedy. He held
the city in part responsible; argued
that it puts too many pitfalls in the
way of the boys; that it's artificial
tiles, it's commercialized strivings for
forced pleasures, it's stress and it's
froth were more than a normal lad
could withstand. Therefore, he pack
ed the family into a train and mi
grated to the country. Back to the
farm.
Country life of the right kind is
fine But how about fathers who can
not seize their tempted sons and run
away from the naughty town? For
one who can flee a thousand must
stay. What about the millions of an
chored sires?
You can do this with your boy in
the city:
You can play ball with him; you
can take walks with him; you can en-
ter as chum into the intimacies of
his boyish Hfe-be good fellow, in
short.
You can set him an example Of
clean living. ..t
You can take enough time from
dollar:chasing to introduce him to-
good books, to go with him to plays
that do not fill him with vicious sug-
gestions, to the continually enriching
better aspects of the modern city. 4 i
You do not have to lecture or scOld
or mollycoddle him to make man of
him. In fact, that is way to lose;
him..
Just be big brother to him.
Make it part of your job to father
him. instead of letting him run wild
In this child of yours you can re-
new and -relive your own boyhood, and
lead him along the better way i.
A lad thus sired will be a pretty
safe risk in either city or country

IMPORTANT CASE TO

 The last legislature made num- erous changes in the improve ment district law, most of them making it stronger and better. But through an oversight, it neglected to re-enact that DOT tion of the old law providing for the election of the commission CTS by the city councils. Some hold, however, that that portion of the old law was not repealed, and this is the question the Su, preme Court has been called up on to decide.
