Sightless Paintere Work 8hown at af

There used lo lie n saying among thi
friends of tlio blind Unit "n blind mat
can do anything hut paint n picture,'
but since Miss Winifred Holt caiu
back from tlio Internntlonnl congrcsi

It bus fallen Into disuse, for a eighties)
llusslau bus demonstrated Hint a blind
mini run paint n picture, and his wort
wns shown at the International con
gross.
.Miss Holt told of It at I ho luBt meet
Ing of the llllnd Men's Improvement
club In New York city. The blind art
1st keeps each, of bla colors in a sepa
rate box. and each box Is marked witt
characters which to bis touch spell thf
name of the color the box contains.
As nilubt be expected, ho Is an In
presslonlst. no knows that trees and
grass ore green and sky la blue and
clouds lire white, so ho lnys on bit
green and blue and white In generous
patches, like nny other Impressionist
and tlio result Is a picture.
"It wasn't a very good picture," laid
Miss Holt, who Is herself a sculptress
and may be supposed to have u critical
taste, "but It wns neither better not
worse than n grent ninny oilier pie
tures that are sold right hero In New
York."
Another font which was reported te
the congress of Die blind was the sav
lng of two lives by a pnlr of blind Eng

lads henrd lliclr cries for help, swam
to them and got them safe ashnrew

A popular hostess In l'arls nt whose
dinners and receptions the best of the
floating population1 mny be seen has
discovered a new way to make hei
dinner gliosis at ease. The day of the
dinner a man nucst received a note
like tills: ".Mr. Illank will have the
pleasure to escort Miss Hash. She Is
musical, doles 011 'Salome,' attends the
lectures of Professor Know-all. She
attended (lie Press club bull, has had
gowns made at Worth's. Her father

the man who bud received tho note. "I
knew what to talk about, but when
Miss Dash la-gun to aak me about the
last races and the next and some other
thing I beaan lo think that she re
