She Wanted to Lenve Housckeesing and'Pose for Pictures. From the Philadelphia Press. Not very long ago while a prominent artist was busy at his easel, the brass knocker rapped three times and, rising, he opened the door. ‘Who is it?” he said, not very pleased at the interruption. “Do you want a model?" was a response. He looked at her with the rapid glance of the man who knows the gieaning of form and color and the value of every fea- ture. Apparently there was nothing to recommend her. The face was not beauti- ful, the skin and features were coarse, there was no pomegranate on the lips, no rose petal on chek, mor shell tints in the ear. The hair was a dusty, yellow gray, the eyes dull and heavy, the mouth and jaw thick and hard. All of this detail he saw as she passed through the door uninvited. “What are your recommendations?” he asked her, half sneeringly. “{ have a good figure,” promptly. “Are you a professioral model?’ was the next query. “I have never posed at all,” she replied. “I'm a housemald. I read something in the paper about the lots of money the models made, and I thought I'd like it better than being out at service.” The artist looked at the young Irishwo- man a moment, and, glancing about the room, wondering what to say to her, his eyes fell upon his half-clad model seated upon the Stand. “Miss B—,” he said, “will you tell this young woman about the life. She wants to be a model.” Miss B—, with an easy, natural move- ment, threw the end of her garnet velvet toga across her shoulders and gave the visitor such a lengthy description of the . hardships and troubles of a model's fe in the studios that when she advised the artistically inclined housemaid “to go back to making beds and scrubbing and waxing floors,” the latter concluded she had better “bear the ills she knew than fly to those she knew not of,” and took her departure as abruptly as she had come. oo—____ A Puzzled Boy.

The exercises were opened by the choir singing & pleasing.song. The chairman then an- nounced that the official meeting closed with the address of Prof. Keffer last night in the M. E. Church.
