In art, as in most Aor Frolessions. the "plums" fall into the hands of may make his $25000 in twelve months by his brushes. Mr. "Dauber," who started his career with equal promise, may barely carn the check that pays his frame maker's bill, Jean Francis: Millet lived and died 3 peasant, though he could wear the ribbon of the Legion of Honor. It was the proudest day of his life when he received $360 for the "Angelus." which a generation later was sold for $116,130 at the Secretan sale. John Crome was glad to pocket a dollar apiece for pictures, any one of which would be sna up to-day for hum- dreds of dollars. George Morland parted with many a masterpiece for the price of an evening's carouse, and Rembrandt's canvases are valued to day at $20,000,000, yet he left nothi to his heirs beyond his clothes his paint brushes And who will say that these cians, of the palette were less skill ul than the Orchardeons and Alma-Tade- mas of later yeairs, whose canvases, with the paint scarcely dry on them, were exch far $10,000 or $15,000 each; than Prank Holl, who painted $100.00 worth- of portraits in a single of Landecer, whose: estate was costly hobby, which leaves little mars gin for evenisiich a modest luxury as marmalade.

Marriage Bargains. | Mr. NGeo. A. Birmingham, 'the well. known English writer, says thére is no coumdry in the world where mar- riage, at least in the peasant class, is | more a matter of bargaining, and yet | shows a Righer average 'of stability and content, than Ireland. Sometimes the man has never seen the woman before they are bromght together, the precixe number of pounds, cows, or pigs to be handed over having 'been by that time settled. This is illustrated in personal recol- lections just published by an Irish lady, She was visiting with an aunt a cottage in the neighborhood, and admired a fine rant chest, of drawers, " Twas: for that I was married," suid She ui mis Jou tne A bargain a. struck. There Was no mone > but She bride was to ' have a coup sheep, a yearling bullock, and -- chest. The prudent young man measured it, and then turned and asked: "An which o' thim little girls is it?" She as the oldest unmarried--"nixt the doore," as thé phrase was. "An' #0 1 wind," she esid, "and was happy ever afterwards." Mr. Lioyd-George's Head. Mr. Lioyd-Geonge's head, according to an expert in phrenclogy, has in- creased iu size from 23 inches to over 28 14 inches during the last eight or nine years. The circumference of M.

An important discovery /was report. "3 at Cape Town by Mr. C. H. Tear of Mowbray. who handed in at Be Civil Oommissioner's office, Cape Town, in accordance with the Precious Minerals Aet, a declaration stating that he had found rich gold at Cape Town Docks. It-transpires that on a recent visit to & quarry at the docks, where stone is being.crushed for cer. tain work, he inspected some of the stone from the crusher, and formed the conclusion that it was gold quartz An examinétion of the' face of the coarsd granite at the quarry itself cnrineed hinr-that there was a rich reef there, apparently about 30 feet wide and 1,000 feet Jong. The quarry, which come under the administration is situated ks location, and the reef, as far as .
