THE AFFAIRS OF CELLINI

The Story Of A Great Lover, A Great Artist-The Most Charming

Rascal Of All Time

(By LEWIS ALLEN BROWNE)

Based on the motion plature by Bess Meredyth.

She saw Della, little more than a child, in the arms of Benvenuto.

The famous musician Giovanni Cellini, intended that his son, Benvenuto should also become a great musician, buj by the time the lad was 15, he had convinced his father that he was destined to be a goldsmith. An old relative prohesied this at his birth and also said that he would become a great lover. At 18, Ben- venuto war progressing rapidly. Cardinal de Medici offered to send Benvenuto, to Bologna to study music under a famous master. The lad was depressed, but he consented to go, knowing that the famed Capaletti, a gold worker, lived there. But before his departure he wanted to see Della Santini, a childhood, ac... quaintance,

Santini, Benvenuto said to the servant at the door that he had come to say a word of thanks to the little girl, Della.

They sat down together.

He turned and stared. His amazement was quite apparent, for It was no little child, this Della, standing there in the doorway, it was a young lady! At least, so it seemed to him. And as beautiful a mäiden as he had ever beheld, he told himself. A maiden ap proaching young womanhood, yet with the beautiful countenance of glorious and innocent girlhood. And a true "Toscana" was she, the perfect type of the Tuscany blonde.

Creeping softly through the door she beheld Della, still little more then a child, and the handsome Benvenuto, clasped in each other's arms.

As she cried out, reprovingly, the beautiful Della and Benvenuto moved apart. Della glared at her angrily.
