We hear • great decal ot the rivalries of
artists, out very little .t the unselfish,
disinterested ways Iu which they strive
to help each other. Unrecorded though
they nisy be, such deeds are written in
imperishable characters in the hearts cf
three who have been helped.
Millais and Holman Hunt, with their
brilliant talents and inspired brushes,
worked on unsucceofully year after year.
Returning to the Academy at each exhi-
bitiou with their carefully considered
pictures, they sought In vain to over-
come prejudice and to win • kindly word
from the critics.
Under desperate d , in
greet poverty and need, they toiled on
and on Until they both regretfully began
to talk of abandoning art, lest they
should starve. Then • sudden encour-
agement come to Millais. Ne mold •
picture, and hastening to Hunt, said,
"You must not give up. You have be-
fore you to greet future. 1f you need
money, share mine.-
The
ine.-The sympathy between the two men
was so perfect that Hunt accepted the
timely help in the spirit in which it was
offered, and fax • whole year lived upon
Millais's purse.
The long -deferred at 1••t.
it was as sudden as it was complete
Withio on. week Hunt °old every pic-
ture he had painted daring those loots
years of unrequited toil, and received
enough to occupy bim for
several years more. Literally, he went
to bed one night in poverty and die-
t, and wakened to find that
be had become famous, and that the way
W rospenty was wide open before him.
But tor Millais's timely wiat•nce,
Hunt would never Lave enriched the
world with "The Finding in the Tem-
ple" and the "Light of the World. -
Some of Turner's unselfish efforts to
help others were truly heroic. On one
occasion, when Turner was on
the hanging • painter by
the name of Bird sent a picture to the
Academy. It had great merit, but no
plant, for it could be found. Turner
pleaded hard fur its admission, but the
c ommitlee refused.
Turner sat down and looked at the
picture for a long tome. and, becoming
more and more convinced of its merit,
insisted that it must be accepted. He
was still overruled. The thing was im-
possible.
Turner said no more, but going into
the Academy, !silently and alone, took
down one of his own pictures, sent it out
of the room. and hong Bird's in us
place. The picture received the recog-
nition it deserved, and another 'drug
glint artist was saved from despair.
At another exhibition, in the year
1826, Turner's great picture of Cologne
was to be exhibited. It was hung be-
tween two portraits by Sir Thomas Law-
rence. The sky of Turner's picture was
exceedingly bright, and had • most in
tonnes effect upr.0 the color of the two
portraits. Lawrence, naturally, felt
mortified and complained openly, as he
had good cause for doing, of the position
of his pictures.
On the morning of the opening of the
exhibition, at the private view, • fnend
of Turner's who had seen the Col one in
all its splendor led • group of expectant
critics up to the picture. He started
i hack in consternation. The golden sky
{ had changed to • dun color, and all its
glorious tints Aad . f. He no
rip to Turner' "What hare you been d. •
int to yr oar picture r'
"Oh,- muttered Turner, in • subdued
trine, so as not to be heatd by other.
"poor Lawrence was so unhappy ' it s
only lampblack ; it will all wash off alter
the exhibition.
He had actually passed s wash of
I lampblack, in water Dolor, over the whole
' sky, and spoiled his picture for the time
lest it should hurt Lawrence, and pre
vent his restores receiving the apprecia
tion that was their doe. The kindly
deed helped Lawreoee over • hard place,
and we easy be sure brought • blessing
to Tarifa.
Ruskin, after most Intimate knowledge
of Turner for fifteen years, crowns his
memory of him with the
"i never heard him say one depreei•t
ing word of living man, or mans work';
I never saw him look •e unkind or bale -
