HERE Is a model
known to ninny of
the nrtlsts of New
York, whoso eccen
tricities have mntlo
her tho subject of
amused comment
nt tho numerous
Eoml- b o h e m 1 a n
gatherings where
nrtlsts meet to dis
cuss their own tal
ent antt tho lack of tnsto exhibited by
un unappreclatlvo public. Tho model
Is merely kiown as Mrs. Cook, al
though It Is believed that she hides hor
dentity behind a fictitious name. Sho
belongs to a groat and over Increasing
army of women who graduate In somo
profession with a failure of trumpets
and n shout of encouragement from
friends and are never afterward heard
of outside their own homes. Mrs. Cook
passed thu ordeal of an examination
for a medical degree.but speedily found
that the sick and anilctcd of New York
were not dying for want of women phy
slclnns to nttend them. Sho then
went Into the seclusion of married life,
and found this a failure, too. for sho
kV was loft a widow at 29 with a family of
mreo cuiiuren to care for.
Casting about for a means, of fllllnp
tho little mouths, Mrs. Cook found
that her features, which Btlll remained
girlish and pretty, would do for her
what her thin figure and arms would
not procure her work as an artist's
model. So far her caso does not dif
fer materially from that of mnnv
other models, as any artist knows. Tho
eccentricity, so called, that speedily
mado her conspicuous In the ranks of
models wns her determined attempt to
turn tho model throne Into tho pulpit
at the expenso of tho artist. Her texts
were: "Higher Spiritual Life" and
"Lower Animal Fare." Ascetic herself
to a degree, Mrs. Cook Is no very at
tractive advertisement for tho cause
she preaches, but she steadily pounds
away on tho ovlls of meat eating dur
ing tho progress of n sitting and pur
sues her missionary work with a zeal
worthy of a better field.

Mr. Allcrt Opcrtl, who w-d a mem
ber of tho sixth Peary expedition, hns
bad on cxh.bltion during tho last
week the bust of a Cape Yor' nntlvc,
or Arctic hlghlnndcr, tho term used
by Sir John H003 In referring to this
people, says tho New York Herald. It
Is the result of a cast taken farther
north than nny other heretofore. It
ins an ethnological as well as an nrtist-
ic interest. Mr. Opcrtl states thnt ho
selected his model for his nlmost per
fect anatomy and great strength. He
also took cast of his limbs and torso.
"He was the best hunter In a tribe of
a rnco that Is possibly tho oldest on
the face of the globo but which may
bo extinct In 100 years more," said Mr.
uperti yesterday. "Wo brought him
on board our vessel, took him down In
to the hold where It was warmest and,
after a good denl of persuasion, with
tho assistance of Lieut. Peary. I lnld
him flat on his bnck, plnccd tho quills
In IiIb nose nnrt paper over his eyes nnd
then proceetled to pour the plaster of
Paris over his face. Several attempts
were unsuccessful, owing to the plaster
freezing, the temperature being 23 de
grees Fahrenheit, and tho material
eight or ten degrees colder. The
thumping of tho vessel against tho
Ico floeB also rendered tho work moro
uuiicuii ior me and very uncom
fortable for my model, who, neverthe
less, underwent his novel experience
wjtn remarkable patience. Tho cast
was made In Inglofleld gulf, which Is 78
degrees 24 minutes north. I am going
to glvo the bust to Lieut. Peary. My
model's race numbers moro than 250
persons. Mnny die every year from
want of food. They are gentle In man
ner and as a rule small In stature." The
bust shows a head of rather large pro
portions. The eyes nro decpset and
the features generally stromr. Mr.
Opcrtl has colored It to conform with
tho natural hue of his model's skin,
which is a light chocolate brown.

There nro still others to whom tho
model's prenching has become burden
some, nnd theso have cut her off their
'Hst of avallnbles. They havo been
.unkind enough to assert that tho fall
ure of the woman as a physician was
due to her patients becoming weary of
the everlasting discourse on tho help
of tho mind and tho body of doing
Without ono meal a day, confining the
remaining two to potatoes and cab
"bago and thereby growing In grace.
Many of tho artists tolerate tho
preacher model for tho sake of her face,
which makes a very Interesting study
foV a certain class of pictures. After
a particularly long sermon from tho
model during tho progress of a recent
sitting, tho artist who was tho victim
on that occasion wns asked what ho
thought of tho arguments.
"Argument?" ho answered. "Was
thero any? Oh, yes, sho talked and
lied against meat eating and qucs
ncd mo concerning my spiritual wel-
re, and all tho time I was bothering
ibout tho bones In her arms. Did
ifou over- see, out of a coffin, a thinner

their right .places, that 1b all. Now I
must look for. somo young girl with

When the plcturo was exhibited tho
artist, as la usual with tho mombers of
tho craft, both young nnd old, mixed
with the visitors to tho gallery to hear
he criticisms.
"Oh, what nn Innocent, youthful

A skeleton has been found In one of
tho fissures of tho Adcmcllo glacier, In
tho Southern Tyrol, which Is thought
to be that of nn American tourist of
the name of Ruth, who disappeared in
1S90. Theso fissures cleavo glaciers at
nil angles, nnd it Is easy to slip into
one of them. When once in, it is
hardly possible to escape without help
from above, and the warmth nt Dm
body melts the Ico around, so that the
victim slowly descends by tho weight
of his own body Into tho depths of the
glacier, and generally starves to death.
On looking Into these fissures the
most beautiful play of light In blue and
green and rainbow colors Is seen. But
theso are best enjoyed from the safe
vantage ground of tho upper, outside
world, rather than down In tho depths
ana close at nand. In Homo instances,
It is said, bodies have been preserved

A New I'lonrlmr Material.
The namo of papyrollth Is given to a
novelty In flooring material which has
lately been invented by Otto Kraner of
Chemnitz, Germany, tho nrtlclo being a
special preparation of paper pulp which
is in tno rorm or a dry powder. When
mixed with water it may bo spread,
iiko mortar, over stone, cement, or
wood, where It dries quickly and may
bo smoothly planed, besides which It
may be tinted almost nny color, in this
way adapting It for parquetry with
variegated bordors, or for panels and
mosaics. Among tho various advan
tages claimed by tho Inventor for the
uso of this product aro freedom from
crevices, deadening of noises, and poor
conduction of heat; nlsov considerable
elasticity, safety from fire, and remark
able durability. It may bo employed,
too, for wainscoting and other archi
tectural purposes as well as for floor
ing.

From Harper's Weekly: Pursuant to
a resolution of tho last congress, the
I'nuaucipnia mint is to begin this
month to make experiments with new
metals and combinations of metals to
dotermlne whether any Improvement
can bo made in our present copper and
nickel coinage. It may give us alumi
num cents In place of the coppqr pieces
now In use, and possibly a now species
of five-cent pieces, mndo entiroly of
nickel, or perhaps half of nickel and
half of copper. Thero Is bo slight a sug
gestion of copper In tho present five
cent pleco that It Is a surprise to
read that 75 per cent of It Is copper and
only 25 per cent nickel. The present
cent contains 95 per cent of copper, 2
per cent of tin, and 3 per cent of zinc.
Tho objection is mado to It that it la
hard to distinguish by feeling hetweev
a cent nnd a sliver ten-cent piece.

In tho tlmo of Gregory the Great the alt

Bo Much the Tliotuaml Worclt,
I have always figured to mysolf Trol
lopo'n novels as all written on a long,
endless scroll of paper rolled on an
iron axis naiieu up In his study. Tho
publishers approach to buy so many
yards of fiction; tho shopman, Anthony,
scissors In hand, unrolls the scroll and
snips off at tho desired point. This
counter-Jumping conception of the
muses prevails with tho customers to
day, with tho editors who buy fiction
at so much a thousand words. Carivin
heaven preserve mo from finishing a
book as ho did his "French Revolu

gested that tho authors should bo paid
by what they do not write. But It wn3
reserved for tho libraries to reach tho
lamest conception of literature. Thi.ii-
clients enjoy tho privilege of having so

first rank In a society whero rank la
mcrythliig, tho pretty young woman
kept tho gossips busy and left trail of
excitement behind her wherever alio
went. Her father, tho Into Captain
Eber It. Ward of this city, wns ono of
Detroit's wealthiest citizens. When
Clara was a mere Infant tho captain
died nnd left Clnra's mother, who was
IiIh second wife, rich In the goods of
tho world. Mrs. Wnrd left Detroit and
went to live in tho enst. When tho
future princess wns C years old Mrs.
Ward mnrrled Aloxnndcr Cnmcron, n
lawyer living In the Canadian town of
Windsor. Ho afterward became a bank
er and grew to be a very wcnlthy num.
Tho family moved to Toronto and re
sided In that city until Clara was 14.
Then her mother deemed it wise, for
reasons known to herself, to take her
daughter to Englnnd for her educa
tion. Sho was sent to a young wo
man's boarding school In London nnd
wns tho despair of her tenchers. Her
mother's immense fortune enabled tho
daughter to Indulge In every caprice,
nnd whllo nt school Clara spent money
with a lavlshness that nnlned even
tho daughters of tho rich English aris
tocracy. Besides Miss Wind's father
hnd left hor an Independent fortune,
which at this tlmo was paying her a
clear Income of 40,000 a year.
MIbb Ward was restlvo under nil ro
Btrnlnt nnd longed to bo at perfect liber
ty to spend her money In her own wny.
It was this dcslro that brought about
tho marrlngo with Prince do Chlmay do
Caraman. In 1890, when Clara was
Just 17, sho paid a visit to Paris
with her mother. Sho and Prlnco
Joseph met nt n dinner given by tho
mother. Prlnco Joseph proposed, and
the girl objected at first. But, relent
ing nfterward, she consented to becomo
a wife as a means of escapo from her
mother a reign.
Prince JoFph nt that tlmo wns a
tall, dark, line looking fellow of 32,
nnd tho heir of one of tho noblest fami

minister of foreign affairs at Brussels,
and the wedding wns ono of tho most

In Europo for many years. It took placo
at Paris In tho papal nunciature on May
