tfEDNKSDAY, JUNE 26, 1S95 ROTHSCHILD REWARDED HIM. "While the Baron Was Sitting as a Beagar Model a Student Pleased Ulm. Dining* on one occasion with Baron James de Rothschild, Enhene Dela? croix, the famous French painter, kept his eyes turned upon his host in so marked a manner that, when the com? pany rose to leave the dining-room, Baron James could not help asking" his guest what it was that so attracted his attention, says the Philadelphia Press. The painter confessed that for some time past he had vainly sought a head to serve as a model for that of a beggar he intended feo hold a prominent posi? tion in a painting on which he was then engaged, and that, as he gazed at his host's features, the idea sudden? ly struck him that the very head he desired was before him With this ex? planation he ventured to ask the baron whether he would do him the favor to sit for him as the beggar. Rothschild, being a great admirer of art in all its forms, and pleased to be considered one of its chief patrons, readily consented to assume a char? acter never before undertaken by a millionaire. The next day found him at the paint? er's studio. Delacroix placed a tunic I round his shoulders, put a stout staff ia his hand, and made him pose as if he were resting1 on the steps of an ancient ! Roman family. In this attitude he was discovered by one of the artist's favorite pupils, who alone had free access to the studio at all times. Naturally concluding that the model had- Only just been brought in from some church- porch, and never dream? ing the character assumed by him was far from the true one, he seized an op- i portunity when his masters eyes were j turned to slip a piece of money into the beggars hand. Baron Rothschild thanked him with a look, and kept the money. The pupil soon quitted the studio. In answer to inquiries made Delacroix told the baron that this young man possessed talent, trat no means; that he had, in fact, to earn his livelihood by giving lessons in painting and drawing. Shortly after the young fellow re? ceived a letter stating that charity bears interest, and that the accumu? lated interest on thc amount that he had so generously given to one whom he supposed to be a beggar was repre? sented by the sum of ten thousand francs, which was lying at his disposal at the Rothschild offices. r THE EFFECT OF FEAR. Imagination a Potent Factor in Acquiring a Fatal Disease. **Of the whole number of persons supposed to die of disease," said a prominent physician the other day, "I should say that at least fifty per cent, are really carried away by fear. Were it not for this element mortality would be far less than it ist" In support of this statement he cited various cases where thc element of fear had entered largely in as a potent fac? tor to persuade people that their time had come. Presentiments, prophecies, premonitions and general nervousness all played their part. On the other hand, a short time ago a patient of a New York hospital was frightened into getting welL This man was brought in an ambulance, supposedly dying from heart failure. He was laid on a table and a diag? nosis showed him to be suffering with hysteria. The surgeon turned to one of his assistants and, asking for a knife, remarked that he would cut down to the heart and find what the trouble was. The patient gave a yell and. leaping from the table, started for the door. Remonstrance was in vain. That man was cured and never came back. Some time ago four criminals, con? demned in Russia to die, were taken to a house and shown several beds, in which they were told a number of cholera patients bad died. As a mat? ter of fact, the beds were new, never having been slept in. The criminals were informed that thev would be set at liberty if they would undergo the ordeal of sleeping several nights in the beds. From thc prisoners' point of .view it was a possible, though a des? perate, chance of escape. They one and all decided to take the chances. At the end of the time prescribed two were uninjured and went free, but the others developed all thc symptoms and { died of Asiatic cholera. Two physicians determined to take j advantage of the impressionable mind of a female patient and prove a theory j for the benefit of science. The lady had complained of an itching on her back. She was told that a blister would be applied. Instead, a common postage stamp was applied, and, so j runs the chronicle, performed all the j offices of the plaster which was not ; there. A college professor was once the sub- j ject of a practical joke at the hands of j the students. They met him one after ? another, and each successively inquired after his health, saying that he looked ill. He took to his bcd. a physician was called and for days tue professor imag? ined he was iii.-N. Y. World. The Fatal Word. "My darling," he exclaimed, raptur? ously. "How brilliant you are. You fairly-cr-bristle with ideas." The Chicago girl drew herself up to her full height and brushed him haughtily aside as she swept out of the roora. "You seem to forget"--she turned on her heel at the door and faced him "that I cannot brook any referen* c tc my ranier's business.*"-N. Y. World. Say ! You Bee-Keeper !
