Among artists there are great geniuses, who are famous and receive large sums for pictures or music." "And do you intend to sell your pictures for money, or to play the piano for money in the evenings? What a disgrace!" "No, Grandmother, an artist...." "No, Borushka, don't anger your Grandmother; let her have the joy of seeing you in your Guard's uniform."
"How delightful," cried Enid. "I should like to meet some of these great artists. Will you ever be able to introduce me to her, do you think, Hubert?" "I think not," said Hubert, knitting his brows. He did not find himself able to turn the subject quite as easily as he could have wished. "Oh, isn't she nice?" hazarded Enid doubtfully.

My earnest thanks are due to Mr.

In conformity with this counsel my husband saw M. Juan, and after learning from him the names of the artists visiting the particular atelier where Richard was to study, he got him recommended to Jules Lefebvre and to Gerome by an intimate friend.
