One afternoon when she -appeared at
her ta ..rite haunt in the window ami
I had seen Antonio, whom I somewhat
feared, go dow ill' the street w ith his
sketch-hook under his arm, I seized a
oot of trimro-es from mv baletmv. as
a propitiation, and ran across. ,.

The room w hich I entered was one
of three in direct communication, but
separated by hangings of anti.pie silk
pushed far along the rods. To utter a
cry d admiration was inevitable all
beautiful, so full of individual
life. 1 had known that Antonio was
an ait 1st, and a successful dim1, but
the woikthat surrounded mc exceeded

seemed to slip and lose it- hold; ami j

Antonio in reality beside me. I sprang
