''The Secret of the Rock"

COUTH AMERICA has a sculptor
whose work reveals skill, sympathy
and beauty comparable in all ways
with the work of foreign sculptors He
is DR.. Felix Pardo de Tavera, of Argen-
tina, and, living in that country for more
than quarter of a century, he has drawn
inspiration and encouragement from it's
aesthetic life, says the Bulletin of the Pan
American Union quoted in "The South
American" for February The story of
his career, from physician to dilettante
painter and finally to an eminent sculptor,
follows:
Born in Manila, Philippine Islands, Dr.
Tavera received his early schooling in the
Municipal Athenaum of the Jesuit Fathers
AS young student he showed unusual artis-
tic tendencies and studied drawing in con-
junction with his other school work An early
painting Of the Virgin Mary which he at
tempted attracted much attention and won
position on the walls of the college at Manila
N4eolclne, however, was his chosen vocation,
aho' completing his preliminary school work

He called this happy concept 'C'est MI a
fitting title, for the pert expression Of the

figure has enjoyed great popularity wherever
it has been exhibited, and many a replica has
been made of it in response to commissions.
In the Barcelona exhibit of 1891 it received
a diploma of honor, and the government add
ed it to it's sculptural collection.

WN A KINGDOM far away

NN A KINGDOM far away
Past the seas. beyond the day.
e Lived the glorious King Dodon,
Who, once, ever and anon.
Being stern when he was young,
Insults on his ncighbors flung;
But when old his heart was more
Turned away from things Of war,
Seeking comforts due his age.
But the neighbors sought to engage
The envied comfort Of the king
With full many frightful thing.
SO, sufficiently to back
Up his borders 'gainst attack,
Into service he must press
Men till they were numberless;
Not a warrior slept, but still
All attempts did fare but i'll.
From the south they used to aw.it--
Now the east pours out their fate;
All in order-from the sea
Come the foemen! Angrily
Wont away in tears Dodon.
And, apart, did slumbcr on.
What is life with misery?
SO from their appeals turned he,
With a wisc-man to confer,
A cunuch and astrologcr,
Messengers are sent to bring
In the wse-man to the king.
so he comes, and he doth hold
Up Il little cock of gold
place this bird so he'll not DROP
Begged the wisc-nan, from the TOP
OF the stecplo; and 20 you
He will be q guardian true.
While about you troubles cease.
He Will sit up there in peace:
But as soon as there is need
That Of danger you take heed,
OF the invasion Of the foe
Or of any other woe,
This gold cock with all dispatch
Z s.icavonward his comb viii stretch;
lie viii crow, his wings he'll beat.

Words OF thanks the king did say,
Promised hills of gold for pay;
'for such service unto me-
Said the king in ecstasy,
Your first wish will fulfil,
Just as though 'twcre my own will"
One full year and more 20 by,
Sits the bird in peace on high.
Then, one morning, wakes the king

Cries the army's general,
My good lord! awaken! stir!'
What is all the matter, sir?"
Asks King Dodon, yawning long
"Ah, who's there? Prny, what is wrong 2"
Says the chief the fateful word
"Once again hath crowcd the bird;
Fear and noise are everywhere"
To the windows doth repair
Dodon; there the birds not ceased
Growing and pointing to the cast,

Quick, to torsc people, away!

Now there pass eight days or more.
But there comes no ncws of war;
Has or has it not begun?
Yet no message to Dodon.
Grows the golden bird again.
And the king calls out more men;
Now he sends his younger son
To relieve the elder one.
Once moro silent is the bird.
From this army comes no word.

And the narrow vale is filled

Speeds he to the tent viii, dread
What a picture there that stuns
Dodon. There are both his sons,
Without helmet or cuirass,
Lying dead upon the grass,
Each ones sword in the other stuck,
And their horses seek their luck,
Wandering, with none to heed,
Der the trodden. bloody mead
"Childrcn mine!" the king doth moan,
"Woc. my falcons fair are thrown
into one consuming snare.
Woc my death is waiting there"
An about did Dodon moan;
From the valleys came q groan
Deep and long, as the mountain sent
Out strange tremors. Then the tent
Opened suddenly--a maid.
Shiningly as dawn arrayed
Princess, sorceress in one,
Greeted silently Dodon

And before her ne forgot
That his two dear sons lived not
With n smile and a salute
Unso him, she gently put
In her hand his hand, and bent
His weak steps within the tent,
At n table fair to sit,
With rich viands piled on it,
Then she had him gently laid
On bed of fair brocade;
