MEN SITTERS PREFERRED.
Portrait Painter Say. Woman Do N\«t
Ko.p Appointm.nta.
An artiat who has enjoyed an un
deniable success as a portrait paint
er and especially as a painter of the
portraits of women was asked, after
looking at a galaxy of beauty anc
distinction, if he did not prefer to
paint women, says the New York
Herald. “Their skin is so smooth,
and the accessories in the way of
chiffons and surroundings seem to
maike the painter’s task so varied
and interesting,” was urged in ar
gument.
“Like to paint women 1” he ex
claimed. “No, a thousand times
no! I’d rather any day paint a
man. A man treats an appointment
to sit as a business matter between
man and man. He never disap
points and is as prompt in arriving
as if it were an affair of millions or
as if I were a dentist. When he
poses he is equally faithful to my
convenience and his obligation. He
does hi# part and gives you your op
portunity.
“But women! Have you any idea
how much time a painter squanders
in waiting for women sitters?
Everything, anything, is an excuse
for being late or for not coming at
all. The most trivial engagement
will set aside an appointment,with
an artist. You are all ready, palette
charged, brushes in hand, and a
half hour after the last moment
there is a ring at the telephone.
'Very sorry, but can’t come.’ That
is what artists undergo with women.
They have absolutely no sense of
responsibility where it is an affair
of sitting for a portrait.
"When they do come and do sit
they feel that they are doing you a
favor. Sitting is a bore, something
rather incidental, or perhaps they
are vague and listless. One came to
me the other day, and her face was
so covered with powder that it was
absolutely vacuous. Her expres
sion was buried. I was tempted to
tell her to go and wash her face.
“In fact, so strongly do I feel
about this matter that I get
through with painting women as
quickly as possible and do every
thing I can with their portraits by
using other models.”
Astonishing Information.
Two men wrote to the editor of a
correspondence column of a maga
zine, Mr. A. asking what to do for
teething babies and Mr. C. asking
how to get rid of grasshoppers. The
editor in answering got the names
mixed, so the man asking about ba
bies got the reply:
“If you want to get rid of the lit
tle pests cover them up with grass
and set fire to it.”
And the one who asked about the
grasshoppers got the reply:
“If they are teething, give them
a warm bath and rub their gums
with boneset every day.”—Judge’s
Library.
Easy Practicing.
Mrs. Fizzletop has been making
an earnest effort to induce her son
Johnny to learn to play the piano.
A few days ago Mrs. Fizzletop call'
ed upstairs:
<f Why aren’t you practicing your
piece, Johnny?”
“I am.”
“You are not. You haven’t touch
ed the piano for the last half hour.”
“I’ve been practicing all the
same. There are pauses in the
march, and I am practicing them
over and over until I know them
perfectly.”—Pearson’s Weekly.
A Modsl Young Man.
- An old gentleman, strongly op
posed to tobacco smoking and late
hours, was introduced to a lady re
cently. His pet aversions formed
the subject of this brief conversa
tion. “Have you any children,
madam?” “Yes, sir, a son.” “Ah,
indeed! Does he smoke?” “No,
sir. He has never even touched a
cigarette.” “So much the better,
madam. The use of tobacco is a
poisonous habit. Does he frequent
any club?” “He has never been to
one in his life.” “Allow me to con
gratulate you. From any other
cause does he keep late hours?”
“Never. He goes to bed directly
after dinner.” “A model young
man, madam—a model young man!
How old is he ?” “Two months!”—
London Family Herald.
A Swindle.
Richard Mansfield once hired a
private secretary, but was compelled
to discharge him because he could
not spell and was otherwise rather
lame in the matter of education.
When the young man had received
the notice of his dismissal he went
to the actor and asked for an ex
planation.
“The fact is," he was told, “your
.education is too meager for the re
quirements of the position.”
Greatly offended, the ex-secretary
exclaimed, “Why, sir, my parents
spent $5,000 on my education 1"
“Then, mv dear boy," said the ao-
tor, “I would advise fcljeic. to insti
tute proceedings for the recovery of

.SKIN DISEASES
t-m
There is an evaporation from the body going on continually, day and
night, through the pores and glands of the skin. This is nature’s way of
maintaining the proper temperature of our systems and preserving the soft-
less and flexibility of the skin, and so long as the blood is free from itnpur-
.ties no trouble will result. When, however, the blood from any cause
becomes infected with humors and acids, these too must be expelled, and
.•oming in contact with the delicate fibres and tissues with which the skin is
io abundantly supplied they produce irritation and inflammation, and the
fleet is shown by Eczema, Acne, Tetter, and skin affections of various kinds.
I'bese iinpui ities and humors get into the blood through a deranged or
nactive condition of the system ; the members .whose duty it is to carry off
•.he waste and refuse matter of the body fail to properly perform their work,
md this impure, fermenting matter i3 left in the system to be absorbed by
’.he blood. The skin is not only affected by poisons generated within
system, but poisons from without,
such as Poison Oak, Poison Ivy, .
Nettle Rash, etc., enter through the
open pores and glands, and so thor
oughly do they become rooted in the
blood that they are ever present,
or return at certain seasons of each
year to torment the sufferer. Salves,
washes; lotions, etc., cannot cure skin
diseases. True, such treatment re
lieves some of the itching and dis
comfort, and aids in keeping the skin
clean, but it does not reach the real
cause, and at best can be only palli
ating and soothing. A thorough
cleansing of the blood is the only certain cure for skin diseases. S. S. S.,
a gentle acting, safe blood purifier, made entirely of vegetable ingredients
of the forest and field, is the proper treatment. S. S. S. goes down into the
circulation, and neutralizes the acids and humors, thoroughly cleansing and
purifying the blood, and curing skin affections of every kind. It supplies
to the blood the fresh, nutritive qualities necessary to sustain the skin and
all other parts of the body, and rids the blood of any and all poisons. S. S. S.
cures Eczema, Tetter, Acne, Salt Rheum, Poison Oak and Ivy, Nettle Rash,
and all other skin troubles, and cures them permanently by removing every
trace of the cause from the blood. Special book on Skin Diseases and any
medical advice desired furnished free to all who write.

I have uaed your S. S. S., spring and taS,

when I first began S. S. S. the Itching, etc.,
wae wo-se, but 1 coutinued the remedy with
the res Jt that tha dry, itching aruptlon en
