A Good Portrait.
A great many ambitious
Americans go to France to learn the
fine arts, especially painfing, and the
majority have a hard scramble to live
while learning. They have to study
economy in all its branches and eke
out a living as best they can. One
of these young mex, before his fame
came, ‘painted portraits in a common
lodging-house at ab altitude of seven
stories. Fearing he could not induce
the public to come x0 high, he put up
a placard on the pasement of the
house: “Portraits taken here. Only
ten francs. Studio on third floor.” On
‘reaching the third floor, a placard,
«men-frane portraits. The studio has
been removed to the fifth floor,” would
greet the eye. Up the portrait seek-
er would puff and pant to the fifth
floor, and there would be greeted with,
«pen-franc portraits. Owing to the
rebuilding of the premises, the studio
has been temporarily removed to the
seventh floor.” The customer did not
{ mind suffering more after he had
reached that period of ascent, and the
artist got his patron.
