"One night, when I went home, I found him sitting up very straight in his wagon, with his cheeks crimson with excitement.
As we passed through the galleries, a large class of intelligent-looking boys, whose age might have ranged from twelve to fifteen years, were busily engaged with their pencils and drawing-paper in copying models placed before them, under the supervision of a competent instructor. It was pleasant to see the democratic character of this assemblage of pupils. All classes were represented.
May we have the peacock fans, please, off the mantelpiece, and the things that loop back the curtains, and all the handkerchiefs you've got?" Mademoiselle denied them nothing. They had the fans and the handkerchiefs and some large sheets of expensive drawing-paper out of the school cupboard, and Mademoiselle's best sable paint-brush and her paint-box.
No, I'm not the new Sunday editor he's away cooling himself somewheres.... I just came in here to finish this sketch." Milly noticed the drawing-paper and the India-ink bottle on the table. "You're not Kim?" Milly stammered. "The same." "So you've come over to the Star?" she said with immediate interest.
Madeleine took her seat before a small rosewood table, and with a pencil in her hand, and a piece of drawing-paper before her, said, "You will not mind my sketching as we talk. I have an idea floating through my head, and I want to throw it off on paper; I can listen and answer, just as well, with my fingers occupied."

"But suppose the person you were writing to did not know whether you were married or not," said Candace. "Then you can add your address below, like this;" and she wrote on the edge of her drawing-paper,
"There's no doubt about it, Tom," said he, pegging a sheet of drawing-paper to a flat board, "we are rapidly making our fortunes, my boy; but d'you know, I'm determined to postpone that desirable event, and take to rambling again."
Seeing you intent upon writing, I was quite confident that I was about to discover a great secret when lo! I see nothing but a sheet of drawing-paper, covered with porches and pilasters. Tell me the truth, Eugene why is it that, instead of worshipping Aphrodite, like other youths, you are doing homage to the household gods of domestic architecture?"
There were no pretty, well-finished, young-ladyish sketches of tumble-down cottages, and trees whose species no botanist could ever define; or smooth chalk heads, with very tiny mouths, and very crooked noses. Olive's productions were all as rough as rough could be; few even attaining to the dignity of drawing-paper.
