NIchols , who now has bor own studIo ,

1l Is strange that. the very traits
and charactorlstlcs and the mutual
II1ces whIch glvo bIrth to love should

not dream oC the truth oC those thIngs.
How could the art Cram whIch love
sprang bo Its mmderor ? Neither dId
they reck oC the Cutmo when they
became ongngCll. Wns there not the

they not bohomlans enough to face

they not paInt the tearhll eyes away
Cram the face at sorrow , and put the
cap and hells on tbo plcturo at pov.
erty ? On these Cundamental bellets
they were marrIed.
NIchols , 111\0 hIs wlCe , was a fine

Ah , whnt II. little fraud love Is actor

Whllo tboy were prosperous and

They came accordIngly and settled
down In the studIo Ql111rter In New

only paInt between the Intervals at

at the work with a light beart , boplng

FIND HAPPINESS
IN COOPERATION.
Up to this tlmo not a cloud had
marred their domestic sky. They were
happy , with the careless happIness at I
children. TheIr art was a joy-a play
to them.
And so they plt : 'ed together untl1
the paIntings were 11nlshed. In order
to Insure separate onslderatlon they
were packed anp shipped In separate
boxes to the Paris Salon , where sIt
the world's arbIters In art.
In due time Mrs. Rhoda Holmes and
Mr. Durr NIchols recelvod their re.
spectlvo'erdlcts. .
For Mrs. Rboda. Holmes It was :
"PaInting accepted and gl\'en bonar ,
'

For : \11' . Burr Nichols It was : "Paint.

Here fell thp sbadow , It wo 1'11'0 to
bollevo those who sympathIze with
Mrs. NIchols. Hero entered the note
or discord. Hero was the parting or
the waYB wherob ) ' two souls became
oshanged. through the lICe at eartb
and the eternity at heaven.
With the wlte's jO ) ' was a feellng or
slncero sorrow for her busband. Ho
had worlmd so hard. Ho bad hoped
for so much. Why could not b th or
them ha\'o won ?
Althougb the shadow was In hIs
heart , the husband spol\O bravely at
the future. "Lot us tr ) ' It agaIn , ho
said : "wo may both wIn next time. "
And so they went to worlt Cor II. sec.
end trIal. Sldo b ) ' sldo they paInted
as bofore. But now there stood a
ghost between them-the Impalpable
shadow oC jealous ) ' and dIscontent.
The wlCe , 11ercel\'lng thIs , grleed
much over It. The husband , ImaginIng
things that were not , grow glo my
nnd tacIturn.
In duo tlmo the two pIctures were
packed In separate crates and shlPPoli
to Paris and In due time the answers
came back.
HIs answer was a box with his pic.

Mrs. Rhoda Holmes Nichols received
