MILLET'S EDUCAT.ON.
Millet, the famous French painter,
was born of peasant folk, from Whom
he iiad the habit of simple living and
a powerful physique. ' From them, too.
writes the author of "Jean Francois
jtillet and the Barbizon School," he
obtained his great tenderness toward j
the people, whom he was destined to i
delineate, so powerfully.
By working with his folk upon the
farm he had not only the .opportunity
of incessantly watching the appear
ance of figures in different sorts of
toil, but he obtained as well an actual
knowledge of the farm laborer's crafts.
He learned how to plow and how to
sow; he learned all about the pecu
liar nature of all kinds of crops and
every kind of domestic animal; and
he became acquainted with the dis
comfort, with the agony that arises
from continuous bodily exertion, with
all that a farm laborer suffers from
exposure to scorching sun and biting
wind or frost.
i Millet was happy in his instructors.
! His great-uncle, Charles Millet, a
' priest, divided his time between la
boring upon the farm and giving in
struction to his little nephews and
Dieces. At all times this priest im
pressed upon his grandnephew the ne
cessity of ' being . industrious, upright
and courageous; and from him pro
ceeded the impulse of that education
that sent' Millet more suitably
, equipped for the task that lay before
j him than many another artist whose
j name has been written large in his
tory. . V V" : .
j It is said that Vergil's words, "It, is
the hour when the great shadows de
scend upon the plain," first revealed to
the boy the beauty ; of his own sur
roundings, and first lighted that fire
which was to be productive of some
of the finest paintings of evening
scenes that the " world is likely ever
to possess.
As to his Bible and Vergil, he read
and reread them, and always in Latin;
and Sensier says, "I have never heard
a more eloquent translator of these
two books." Instead of being an il
literate person, indeed, when he went
to Paris, Millet, "The Wild Man of
the Woods," as he was called by De
laroche's pupils, among whom V he
found himself, was already a cultivat
ed man. His education had been far
better than if he had been an ordinary
member of a bourgeois, or even, of a
noble family. Its great characteris
tics were its thoroughness, its sim
plicity and its refinement the very
characteristics that' make his own
works lovable.
A Developed Daisy.
, For many years Mr. Burbank worked
upon the daisy, taking the tiny field
daisy, the pest of Eastern farmers, as a
basis oi bis experiments, and develop
ing it until it is now a splendid blos
som from five to seven inches in diam
eter, with wonderful keeping qualities
after cutting. In the same way he has
greatly increased the geranium in size,
and at the same time has made it far
more billiant in color. From William
8. Harwood's "A Wonder-Worker of
Science" in the April Century.
May Never Have Heard of It.
After, a stormy intervinew with Mr.
Boodelle, the successful, contractor and
politician; the indignant caller had
gone away.
"I fully expected to see you slug
him," said the private secretary,
"when he called you a "persistent vio
lator of the eighth commandment.' "
"I suppose I ought to have done it,"
said Mr. Boodelle, grinding his teeth,
"but I couldn't recall- the eighth com
mandment to save my lifer Chicago
