GARRlCK EASILY WON WAGER
Artist Had Not Figured on How Quick.
ly Actor Could Change Express
sion of His Face.

At an entertainment ut which Gains
borough and the famous actor David
Garrick We're present, an ardent ad-
mirer of the great artist declared, ac-
cording to Bibliothek der Unterhal-
tung und des Wissens, that Gainsbor-
Ough had never failed to take per-
sons likeness in n portrait, no mat
ter how difficult the subject might
he, Gnrrick thereupon asserted that
Gainsborough .could not paint his like
ness, and begged to be allowed to sit
for his portrait. Gainsborough,
pleased Mt the commission, and expect
ing to find 1t very interesting to paint
the actors expressive countenance,
gladly consented. Garrick then made
n secret wager with the artists friends
that he could prove to them that there
was one face mt least that Gains
borough could not paint.
The results of the first sitting were
very satisfactory to the complacent
artist. At the second sitting, how
ever, Gainsborough was made uncom-
Portable and nervous at finding it nee
essnry to make several alterations in
his work. AT the third sitting his dis
pleasure became extreme when, on
comparing the half-completed work
with Garrick's face, he saw that the
two bore so little resemblance to each
other that the portrait had to be al
most repainted. When Garrick ap-
peared for the fourth time, with the
most innocent expression imaginable
and begged the painter to begin work,
Gainsborough, thoroughly angry, broke
out
1--WE no use for you! You can ape
thousands of faces, and never have
one of your own!"
Smiling, Garrick left the studio to
announce to the artists friends that
he had won the wager.

Fundamenta, Differences.

Goethe says: with those who are
really of like disposition with himself
n man cannot long be at variance; he
will always come to an agreement
again." So the purpose to get to that
like belief is the aim of controversy,
If controversy has any aim at all. So
II one man differs from another, he
need not think that he can convince
him by facts. He must first sound his
disposition and find out what that
amounts to, and keep on sounding
until he finds disposition or funda-
mental belief that Is in accord with
his own. He will be sure to find this
at last, for in their divine import all
souls are alike. One can always dig
down to where he Is brother to his
enemy. There Is never controversy
that one will not find, when the lit
ter. trash, refuse, trumpery are swept
aside, an axiom, self-evident truth,
or mutual aspiration that make the
disputants one; and when that end is
reached the controversy changes into
each side trying to be more kindly
disposed than the Other.-OhiO State
Journal.

cervantes Versus Turks.

Cervantes did his bit against the

fighting, and he lost his arm in the
battle. This was but one of the many
exciting episodes of Cervantes' event

dering life for many years, ultimately
becoming soldier in the Italian army,
and seeing active service ut Navarino
and Tunis. In 1875 he set out for
Spain, but was captured by Barbary
pirates and held for ransom for five
years. When freed he tried to earn
n living with his pen, but was unsuc-
cessful, and In 1887 we find him en-
gagged in gathering stores for the Ar
