fiozi-ii enow tliHt rang like muffled
c)tiiliMt umlor her nclilm; little f"t
aa ehe ran to rhool pretending eh
wu n lot:oii)otlve and her breath the
dtenm.
Hut thl wa only the frrlfulne
of the uiivonriuerable human dlKcon
tout. She had hated winter when It
tortured her, and now the Cullfnrnla
puradlee tortured her hecaun It wn
wlnterlee. Kvcn In huaven theungi-l
grww weary of golden and Juer ar
rhlterture and harp muelc mid tried
to change their government.
lMi'ontent with the weather w-aa
only one of Mem' unhapplneene. Her
a "billon wa ruthlee and her rrttl
i nl faculty rebuked her. She prayed
for opportunity for bigger role and
hluMied at her obaourlty; yet when
ho raw her flnUhtd acenea ehe suf
fered direfully because ehe had done
them o III, When her colleague ap
plauded her he ald her true thought
when ehe answered: "It could have
been done to murh better. If only
we could retake It."'
fihe wa living the artist's life,
gouded to expression, rejoicing in ut
terance and afterward anguished with
regrets that he had not phraaed her
self a little differently.
As witb every other artist in the
world's history, her personality, her
preference, her very face and form,
offended mnny people. Nobody ever
pleased everybody. Sha overheard
harsh criticisms or they were brought
to her one way or another. They
hurt her cruelly, and the more cruelly
since it was her nature to believe
them justified and even a little less
than harsh enough.
Some happier natures than hers
could always protect themselves by
saying; that the crltlo hud a personal
spite, or wa a failure venting the
critic's own disappointment, or was
too shallow to appreciate, or had been
bribed.
Jiut Mem could never wrap her
wounded soul In such bandage. She
Mt that the tiulh worne than
tlitt Wtie he heard. he could al

uirnta that Hie cntbs had over
hx'ke I.
!h could not retake In r picture,
htitvevi r, and when, occur.!-ninlly, a
c.iu hnd hem shot over again and
nhu could eoriece vm f.uilt. eh
always found another "iu-, i r more,
to replace It.
Olh'stirlty wa a further anguish.
Hhc Mlftcted becau an few people
hud seen her picture, and the hard
time that illmlnlkhed tho audience
looked like a personal Injury to her
In her artistic cradle.
And then she had a stub of another
sort. Hho learned the cure of sue-
i-e. Une of her pictures wn showo
at the California theater In Lo A
geles, and she sat In vast throng
and saw with pride that people strange
tu her were leaning forward with In
terest and devouring her with their
eye. Khe saw a fat woman sniffle
mid thought it a beautiful tribute.
She saw a bald headed man sneuk a
handkerchief out and, pretending to
blow his nose, dash hi shameful tears
away. And that wn beautiful to
her with a wonderful beuuty. She
played a minor role, but she. heard
peoplo speak of her a the mob went
out iitnong the inbound mob crowding
to the next showing.
The paper the next day In'tholr
criticism gave her special mention.
Mho loved Klnrenee Lawrence and Guy
Price, Grace Lindsey, lilwln Schal
lert, Monroe Lathrop all of those
who tossed her u word and put her
name in print. A marvelous thing to
see one' nume In print and with a
bouquet tied to It.
She had hut a llttlo while to revel
In thla perfect reward, for In a few
day a letter came to her, forwarded
from the studio.
Tho writing on the envelope wn
strange to her. When she opened It
theto wa no algnnture. There wa
a savagery about the very writing.
Iler heart plunged with terror a f-he
read.
