He was a seruggling artist, who painted

Unleas he could in some way erreab the

True, by some freak of fortune, one of his
pictures had once been exhibited as the
Royal Aoadetny. But it had been "ekied,"
not a single critic noticed it, and it -was re.
produced in none of the illuatrae.ed cata-

A timid rat -tat at the door interrupted

She was silent. le was dark and the road
was deserted. His artn crept round her

deoceoding to meet them.
And so it was arranged.
The picture being ae last entailed, was
despatched with muck trembling. Richard

" I know you can new," the doctor
answered, "but I feel convincee that your

Richard's brow became clammy. He said
nothing about it to Mary wad went privily

three years," said robe greab man.
"But I can't. --I meet live."
"11 you don't rest, you wilt be blind

With great diffinnIty he gathered sufficient

a little.
" Then, of course, you most give

"But howl"
"Well, you will have the money for the
'Claire Ingelow ' drawings and perhaps tbe

"The money for the drawing' won't; last
slx months, and pictures by unknown

"Well, I can tarn a little."
She was determined tri keep cheerful for
his sake. He closed her mouth wide a kiss.

the thing was net a SHOWS% and though
naturally much commented en, it Was not
favorably noticed, especially by the men
present. One man, whose hands wore en-
cased in unimpeachable lavender kids,
with black points, contemplated them
pathetically, and announced that his wife's
glove bill and his own was a. heavy item
in every year's outlay, but that he thought
he would rather be a beggar on the sbreets
than he or she should go gloveless through
bhe world. Wherever expenses cen be our -
tailed, therefore, there is little hope thee it
will be in woman's gloves so few as out of
doors ie concerned.
GLOVES " ORP " en MUMS.
At the theatres, however, the absence of
gloves is becoming quite csonspicuoaa. Moat
of the women appear without any and with
bare menu and hands just as they would at
the dinner table. Whether this freak of
fashion will really catch on is at presenb an
open queation. Naturally the glove dealers
are dead against it, and a strong effort is
being made by them to nip the rebellion in
the bud at its outset.
THE YORK SHOE.
A specialite in French kid is called the
"York oboe," having a steel ornament on
the instep and a most becoming point in the
flap. Steel ornaments also appear on the
" cross " shoes which are covered with

kid. Princess May has a great fancy for
light tan shoes, and there is a delicate pair
of Russian leather ones. There are low
shoes with eteel orneenents. Slippers to go
with ideal morning and dreseing gowns are
plentiful; they are of the Turkish shape,
low on either side. Some are white kid
hoed with math; others in pale pink edged
with far. ()there, agein, show pale blue

A striking gown was a pale -blue satin,
trimmed wibh three men of =galena old

had for background a band of Weak satin,
which it completely covered. The bodice
was made with revere of black satba, wide
and full on the shoulders but narrewbag

covered with old point. The bonnet was in
pale -blue satin and with a garland of blush

TEE SLEEVELESS COAT,
Sleeveleas coats of brooade are being much
worn, the Akin being very full at the
back and very flat in front, where they are
cut away close to the pockets. These coats
are not always successful in proportion with
their cost. When the color is in too violent
contrast with the reat of the toilet they are
decidedly inartiatic. For imamate, a very
brightly tinted brocade worn with an other-
wise black cosbume is much too sudden to
be pleasing.
