Alas, Young, you have a lot to
learn, you are a bungler, look here,
you must learn, my friend, or you will
never amount to much, and do wish
you a successful career. Take note:
You should have lifted the cigars, lay
err by layer, till you came to the last
row and then you would have found
the wads of brown bills-the thous-

All, yes, you would have been inter-

Young, because a young artist usual

and colors.
Still another surprise was in store
for you, but I am discreet.
You see the palette on my table
an unusually large one, to be sure.
Every artist has a palette, I grant,
but I like large one. Once I needed
great many colors.
The colors are bit thick on the
palette? Yes, it is scandal the way
I smear paint on it. Yes, indeed, Mr..
Young, you are right. Nothing in
the palette interests you, Mr.. Young?
Well, you make a mistake. Do you
know what is in this little mound of
cobalt blue? You don't?
will be discreet; your ears are not
sharp enough to catch my whispered
words. Well, in there are the dia-
monds of Tamawa who is so grieved
over their loss!
And here is a long mound of Rus
sian green-it looks like a swollen
worm. Do you not agree that Rus
sian green makes a lovely covering
for rubies? These rubies were set in
the gold cigarette case of Nine. An
toniewska!
All, there are so many interesting
little Jumps on my palette! There
that miniature mountain of ochre-
there, how is shines! What a treas
ure is hidden in it's fastness-you do
not need to build mines to get these
wonderful diamonds of, Mr.. Brewster.
One of these diamonds alone is worth
a kings ransom.

ceals? Stones, stones from the hand
of the Prince of Wales, which Ria Ret
