hNGoulNSs
WAS I dreaming? I felt like pinching
myself to see. A woman's face was look
ing at us from between the eanvases,
beautiful in form and feature. . .
'rhe doctor now saw a string OF beads
around the neck, one bead at time.
They changed in color from white to
amber and then to gold. Meanwhile the
background had changed in color several
times, from white to light yellow. then
to dark yellow or brown and then to
green with a tinge OF red, after which IL
mottled beautifully until the effect was
superb. The changes took place like
waves of light upward over the whole
picture. The two canvases were now laid
flat on the table and a third canvas was
lifted from the floor and placed over
them for a cover. We were then asked
to place our hands on this, so as to set
the colors.' Soon the portrait was un-
