 WOMAN RENOWN
British Painter HonOred by
 Royal Academy

London, Dec. 16. tPl-Colors from painted a rainbow that has led. if not exactly 10 a pot of gold. at least to prized associate membership in the Royal Academy.
 The English woman achieved her distinction in the art world through long years of constant work. She was an orphan iu straitened circum- stances, but managed 10 finance her own education. At l3 she attended the Nottingham art school, where Harold Knight, her husband and himself q portrait painter, was fellow student.
 "1 solved the early economic troubles by going to inc Yorkshire coast, at StaitheS, and living with the fisher folk in their cottages" Mrs. Knight explained. Critics have since said that my work gained by my having lived with the folks I painted. But l can assure you I only did It then because 1t wa. cheap
 The earliest pictures she submit ted to the Royal Academy were re- iected, and she says she now real izes they were mere daubs' and have destroyed them. Of recent years she has suffered no rejcc- tions.
 Mrs. Knight has painted negro life in Maryland and other Ameri- can states.
 Y think there is a whole world to explore In the lives of negroes" she remarked. T have become much interested in the beauty Of negro life"
 The theater is her chief recrea ton. She made special study of tallet dancers, whom she has paint ed extensively. She has even re- ceived lessons in ballet dancing 10 enable her to better understand the technique.
 Mrs. Knight Is the fourth woman in the Royal Academy. Of the oth- CTS, only Mrs. Annie l.. Swynner- ton, now s2 years old. is living:
 Mrs. Swynnerton still takes an active interest in the world of art and has country studio. She be- gan painting as child and studied for a career. Her marriage to Jo- seph w. Suynnerton, a sculptor, in 1883. was an inspiring partnership in art.

 The old method. still in use out side the experimental district. re- quires a separate circuit which IS fed from a switch in q substation and can be used only for street lighting. Necessity for separate lines arose from the fact that if street lamps and residence lights were on the same circuits houses would go dark at the same time street lights were turned out.

CHAPTER xxxIv

Upstairs in her flat, Mavis
Bane lay upon a couch, her face
buried in a cushion, and her
whole form shaking in semihys-
terical emotion. She had done
the thing which for days it had
been in her mind to do. She had
betrayed Jefferies to his enemies,
but she derived no satisfaction
from the thought, rather her
conscience rose against the deed
and worked her into frenzy of
remorse.
Vishnil's laugh, as he promised
Jefferies' safety, still rang in
her ears. Vishnil had seen
through her almost unconscious
hypocrisy. He had known that
violent jealousy and fear for her
own personal safety had driven
Mavis Bane into the betrayal of
Jefferies. She had said to her
self that unless Jefferies were
taken by guile, he would be
killed by his enemies.
That was hypocrisy-the n.y.

not even bear to face its own
intention,

again. She began to pace the
room restlessly.
There came sudden sharp
ring at the front door, and after
a moments hesitation she went
to answer it. A wild idea flashed
across her mind that perhaps
Jefferies had escaped from his
captors and had returned for
vengeance. She opened the door

she loved lying unconscious at
the mercy OF his foes, Mavis
realized the enormity of her act.
She saw herself stripped of all
the excuses that her mind had
hitherto invented for her own
tranquility, and the sight sick
ened her. AS she lay on the
couch she was nearly mad with
anguished regret. She suffered
as only the weak and neurotic
can suffer. At one moment she
felt tempted to run out into the
street and shout aloud to every
one the thing she had done. At
another moment she decided to
pack some things and leave Lon
don. and England, at once.
She rose from the couch and
mixed herself some whisky and
water. The shaded lights wor.
ried her, and she snapped on the
other two switches; then she
caught sight of herself in

They all looked extremely
anxious and Ill at ease. Mavia
had told her story. and In the tell.
ing Of 1t had become wellnieh
hysterical. She had not spared
herself ons whit in her narrative.
but had related frankly how she
had been swayed. first by terror
and then by jealousy. Her re-
morse had been so obviously genu-
inc and the spectacle of her grief
so painful that not one had been
able to reproach her.
Mary and Madge Aldhouse had
done their best to comfort her.
but they had been able to do Nttle
good. Finally Mavis had been

Young Arthur Byrne looked de-
pressed. for though every one was
more than usually pleasant to-

had played the traitors part.
That afternoon Curwen Brown

aimed notebooks, and already an
