WHISTLER WAS MOST ACTIVE
Observer Marveled at Great Energy Displayed by the Famous Artist
 in His Studio.

The studio was surprisingly differ ent from the room he previously used in Lindsay TOW. and entirely unlike the studios usually occupied by other artists. says Hay in Memories of Whistler" I remember q long, not very lofty room. very light. with win dows along one side; his canvas beside his model at one end and at the other, near the table which he used as palette. an old Georgian looking glass. so arranged that he could soc his canvas and model reflected in it.. Those who use such a mirror Gas he did constantly will know that 1t Is the most merciless of critics.
 I marveled then at his extraordinary activity. as he darted backward and forward to look at both painting and model from his point of view at the ex- treme end of the long studio. He always used brushes of large size with very long handles, three feet in length, and held them from the end with his arms stretched to their full extent. Each touch was laid on with great firmneSs. and his physical strength enabled him to do without the asSiStatcp of a mahl- stick. whilst the distance at which he stood from the canvas allowed him to have the whole of a large picture in sight and so judge the correct drawing of each touch.

He Would Pay.

It happened at Christmas party. A pretty young lady had asked one of the male guests to pass q dish of al- mOndS and raisins.
 With pleasure he replied "but do you know that what you have asked for is called in the vernacular Kiss miss" and that the penalty of kiss attaches to the request? ?'
 "Is that so?" answered the lady. calmly. "I must consult my husband" :" And she called across the room to him, and repeated the observation.
 Quite so,'' he replied. According to custom it is a just debt and must be paid But is the gentleman aware of the arrangement made when we were married-that I must settle all my wife's liablities?"

 pated Headachy-Dont Lose Days Work

Liven up your sluggish liver! Feel fine and cheerful; make your work a pleasure; be vigorous and full of am bition. But take no nasty, danger ous calomel, because it makes you sick and you may lose days work
 Calomel is mercury or quicksilver, which causes necrosis of the bones. Calomel crashes into sour bile like dynamite, breaking it up. That's when you feel that awful nausea and cramping.
 Listen to me! If you want to enjoy the incest, gentlest liver and bowel cleansing you ever experienced just take a spoonful of harmless Dodson's s Liver Tone. Your druggist or dealer sells you 50 cent bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone under my personal money
