has been suggested that it Is becoming
altogether too difficult FOR the President,

who has far too much to do. One idea
is to alter the constitution so as to
provide for a vice president to relieve
him of some of his duties. The laying
of foundation stones and the opening
OF exhibitions, 1t is pointed out, might
be undertaken by vice president.
The President has to receive all sorts
of people, travel and make more
speeches and sign so many things that
he even sits up and signs in bed quite
frequently. mo more signing is my
definition Of happiness" said poor M,
Doumergue before completing his term
Of office.
The President cannot take holiday
except at Rambouillet during the Sum-
rner, and the lakes of the Chateau OF
Rambouillet are very attractive to mos
ouitoes. But M. Paul Doumer has al
ways been hard worker and an early
riser from his youth up and, IN con-
trast to his predecessor, he dislikes the
radio, He loves his many books, but
has very little time for them.

"MADONNO OF CHAIR"
RESULTED FROM WISH
Hermit's Blessing on Young
Woman and Tree Led to
Raphael's Picture.

Raphael's Madonna Of the Chair, -
says a noted Paris art lecturer, was the
realization Of q hermit's wish.
There have been many stories told
regarding the painting of Raphaers
Madonna Of the Chair" the artist
said, but the one that seems most fit
ting is as follows:
IAN old hermit, widely known and
loved for his charity and Christian serv-
ice. lived in a hut in the valley. Near
his humble home stood giant oak tree,
which he called his silent friend, be-
cause it gave him shade and sheltered
him from the storm. Close by lived a
vine dressef's daughter, known to
everybody for her kindness to the old
hermit, who called her his friend that
talked.
"One day g terrible storm arose,
which was followed by a disastrous
food. The hermit sought shelter in the
branches of the tree and was rescued
by the vine dresSer's daughter, who
took him to her home. The hermit was
very happy and prayed that his two
good friends might be glorified together.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1931-08-13

Long afterward the hermit Bernardo
died. and the oak tree was cut down
and made into wine casks. BY this
time the beautiful girl had married and
was the mother of two fine sons.
zone day the young mother sat at
the door of her cottage with her two
sons at her side Raphael passed by
and noticing the beautiful picture made
by the mother and her sons quickly
took his crayon and sketched it on the
head of wine cask. From this sketch
the artist is said to have painted the
popular picture of the Madonna of the
Chair and the wish of the old hermit
was realized"
