BONHEUR'S MASTERPIECE. "
Story of the Famous Prenoh Artlert
Painting, "Tho Horse Pair.*
In ber story of Rosa Bonhear In
"Tales From the OM World and the
New." Sophie,M. CoDmpna. the author,)
writing of the artist's masterpiece,
"The Horse Fair," says:
"Never, surely, had there been so
many sketches of horses; tbey covered
the vails, the tables, the chairs, the
easels and even the floor, for the world
Just then held nothing for Roe a but
horses. 8he painted away at them un
til she could ha ve done it with .her
eyes shut. Every horse in the great
picture had been sketched countless
times, and still Rosa felt that she must
try Just one more pose.
"All things, however, must come to
an ond, even sketches, and so in the
course of time the "Horse Fair* was
finished. The world baa pronounced It
Rosa Bonheur's masterpiece, for al
though she was to paint many splendid
pictures in the years stlU.to come, none
would ever quite equal this.
" 'My Parthenon frieze,' she called
It in jest, but that is Just what it is—
a frieze of horses; there U not much
landscape, and the men hardly count,
und they have usurped the entire can
vas, these ponderous Norman horses,
gray, brown and sorrel, ready to stam
pede out of the .picture and taxing, all
the strength of the blue bloused, hos
tlers to hold them in. Rosa had wish
ed to portray vigorous We and motion,
and she knew that she bad succeeded.
"Many of her pictures went to fer
elgn lands, and she hoped that thU
one might remain in France, but it,
too, went on its travels, and as though
the restless horses could not endure
quiet, never stopped until it had cross
ed the ocean, and after many adven
tures was Anally tethered in the Met
ropolitan museum, in New. Tork city,
far, far away from Rosa's studio."
PRAYER FLAGS OF TIBET.
Every Flutter 8»nds a Plea to Heaven,
the Natives Believe.
Encircling the buildings or Thasa,
Tibet, is the sacred road, merely to
walk along which absolves the mortal
from all earthly sins, and many pil
grims prostrate themselves for ita en
tire length, thus securing everlasting
bapptnesa in their future.life.
The most interesting portion of the
sacred road Is where it runs through
some sharp limestone rocks, carved
deeply with figures of Buddha painted
In many colors.
From the rocks prayer flags are «us
pended on lines running to an island
In the river. These prayers ate uni
versal In Tibet, ond so long as they are
muring they are recording prayers for
the benefit of those who put them up.
All devotees, men and women, walk,
always turning a small hand prayer
wheel filled with minute prayers print
ed on thin paper, and larger prayer
wheels, filled in some cases with tons
of paper prayers, are set revolving by
the devout or are sometimes worked
by water power. Smaller ones are
turned by the hot air rising from but
ter lamps.
Single prayers printed on thin cloth
are strung vertically on poles or
stretched across open spaces to flutter
In the wind and thus send millions of
prayers vibrating toward the omnipo
tent for the benefit of some one's souL
1'hey are most picturesque. An old
lama 1 once questioned on the sub
ject told me "that If the person turn
ing the wheel truly believed that by
doing so he was accumulating merit
it would certainly count as a meri
torious action."—National Geographic
Magazine.

An Ancient Aqueduct.
The ancient Roman aqueduct at
Nimes Is generally considered the most
perfect of Roman relics. It consists of
three great tiers of arches, the lowest
having been used as a bridge and the
uppermost as an aqueduct. It rises
about 120 feet above the level of the
river. The Pont du Gard, as it Is
called, is believed to have been built
under the supervision of Agrlppa, the
Roman general, about fifty years be

Johnnie on the Spot.
Tbe young teacher had been having
a trying time with her nati®! study
class because Johuuie hud d* covered
he knew more than she did about birds
and frogs and had assumed a derisive
attitude In consequence. She appealed
to the man principal, who replied:
"Nest time you have the class let me
know, and I'll come in and take charge
of It 1 think I can settle Johnnie."
He was duly called In, and all went
well at first. With confiderce the priD

question." Johnnie had been silent up
to this time. When it came his turn

Discarded the Baton.
At a concert in Moscow a number of
years ago Safonoff, the famous Rus
sian conductor, found as he mounted
the conductor's rostrum that he had
forgotten his baton. Two hours later
his servant ran breathless into the hall
with the missing baton; but, as Safo
nofif afterward explained, "a great re
form had by then been accomplished."
He had managed so well with his
hands as a substitute that he deter
mined never to use an unpliable bit ef
wood again. "I discovered," he said,
"that I had ten sticks Instead of »ne,
and the players discovered it was im
possible for them to be lazy, so care
fully had thoy to watch those ten
sticks."
