Way Will Be Shown Trust in God for great things. With your five loaves and two fishes. He will show you a way to feed thousand*.--Horace BushnelL Paris.--Charles Millet, grandson of the painter of "The Angelas," has confessed to selling for tens of thousands of dollars to London and New York art dealers pictures falsely attributed by him to his grandfather and other great artists. ' The whole collection of Millets in the famous Barbizon museum, state* Charles Millet, are also forgeries. The paintings were made for him by a skillful copyist named Caseau. The investigations which brought this Tast swindle to light began a few days ago. An art dealer in London applied through the Melun magistrates for the return of several genuine bronses by Rodin which he had confided to Millet for sale and for which he had received no payment. Police raided Millet's house in the Forest of Barblion, where his famous grandfather had lived and worked. After a severe interrogation, Millet confessed that for years he had been exporting, principally to England and America, paintings guaranteed by him to be the works of Millet, Monet, Degas, Corot, Cezanne, Sisley and other impressionist masters of the last century. The works sent to England and America were sold in some instances, it is understood, for sums exceeding 150,000. A panic is growing in the Paris art market owing to the widespread nature of th|s scandaL Dubious paintings by the Nineteenth century masters are being obtained at astonishingly low prices. No fewer than 4,000 forged pictures harp been sold to unsuspecting dealers and collectors, state the police. Art experts are working tirelessly, yisiting collections whose owners are anxious for reassurance regarding the true value of th«|jr treasures.

Henry seem almost as constant as his fame as a short-story writer. One of the best concerning his charming idiosyncrasies is related by Bob Davis, newspaper man and editor, in the Golden Book magazine. In his early New York days O. Henry had a quaint way of changing addresses without notice to anyone, disappearing from his friends for weeks. Davis, then a stranger to the author, had been instructed to find him and to offer him first $40, then $50, and, as a limit, $60, to write introductions to a series of stories. After searching five buildings he finally found the author in a dark, cheap hall bedroom --but with a half doaen fine pears burled in a bowl of Ice, as a relief from the heat. * "I have three propositions," he announced. "But I shall make the last one first." And be made the $60 offer. "If that last one la the best, yoa needn't make the other two," drawled O. Henry*, "And moreover, mistefc jQf. caa have the rest of the pears.* ^ Wooden Bowl lias History An extravagant sum of money, the exact amount of which has not been made known, was paid for the famous bowl known as the Pepys mazer, for four centuries the property of the Edward VI almshouses at Saffron Waiden, Essex, England. The Pepys mazer is a small bowl of maplewood standing 2 3-16 Inches In height and 7% inches across. Around the lip is a plain band of Silver-gilt, a little deeper outside the bowl than inside. It bears the London half-marke of 1507-8 and the head of the maker's mark, which is the head of a saint. Inside the bowl is a circular medallion, a plate of sllver-gllt, and an engraving of the Virgin and the Child in a glory of long rays. It now comes to America. It is so called because it was referred to in the writings of Pepys. Sp«id«r Hu A4vuU|f It is a well-known fact that the man who spends much, though he needs to carry more money than the man who spends little, does not have to carry as much in proportion to Ma espenditure.
