Artist,s Love at First slaht.

The great Gainsborough, the painter
of the celebrated Stolen Duchess"
and "The Boy Blue" and many lovely
landscapes, fell in love at a glance!
He was painting lanscape near Sud-
bury, when he was interrupted in his
work by a lady coming between him
and the sunlight Her shadow fell
upon his work, for she was wholly
unconscious that she was interrupting
a work OF a genius. Gainsborough
looked up, perhaps thinking 1t was a
cow that was wandering by. It hap
pened to be a very attractive woman,
with whom the artist was instantly
smitten. She proved very helpful
wife, and used to save every scrap of
work her husband did, although he
would dash off lovely sketch and
fling it under the table. These cast
offs brought large sum at auction af-
ter the artists death.

had rejected her, she need no longer
concern herself with the worlds opin-
ion or retain any scruples over II. Back
of this lay her bitter sentiment toward
the man who had been the direct cause
Of her Imprisonment, Edward Glider.
The factor that was the immediate
cause Of her decision on an irregular
mode Of life was an editorial in one
Of the daily newspapers. This was a
scathing arraignment Of a master In
high finance. The point Of the writ
ers attack was the grim sarcasm for
such methods of thievery as are kept
within the law. That phrase held the
girls fancy, and she read the article
again with quickened interest. Then
she began to mediate
1t was the law that had worked the
ruin Of her life, which she had striven
to make wholesome In consequence
she felt for the law no genuine respect,
only detestation as for the epitome of
injustice. Yet, she gave it a superb
cial respect, born Of those three years
Of suffering which had been the result
Of the penalty inflicted on her. Now,
in the paragraph she had just read she
found clew to suggestive thought, a
hint as to means by which she might
satisfy her rancor against the law that
had outraged her, and this in safety
since she would attempt nought save
that within the law.
