THE ARTIST MIND,

So the wonian who is buying a hat, or a blouse, or a frock makes a point of first epying out the land. Sho goon to look at the shops," to seo this hat, and that dress, and the other set of furs. And as she wanders pensively before the windows where are displayed the objects of her moditation, slie sees herself in these things, Lies the blouse mentally with the fiat ale has decided upon for the sum mer. During that expedition she will reduce the lints in a given milliner's window from fifty to. half a dozen possibles." With that half-dozen in her mind sho goes home, having spent a do- lightful afternoon, and perhaps twopence on tram faros.

At home' she reviews those hats again, and though may be alio will not confess to it, sho' could give you a full description of osol one of them.ng maton megafa Having rejected four of those in her mind's eye, once more she goes to the shop, inside this time, tries on both, and overtually comes away with one.

Thus, whereas buying a hut is, for a'mau, o mere incident, for a woman it is a campaign. And when next you see a woman walk: straight inton shop, hardly glare- ing at the window display, you may take it for granted that she came yesterday, or the day before, just to live a look found!

There is one type of shop-gazer who does not come to buy, how- evor; neither will slio buy tomor row. She comes to copy, to lind in the window the hat or dress which she thinks will bost suit hor. Five minutes study of it will suffico, and with her mental photographs, properly developed, off she goos home to copy with her own hands what she has seen. She has the executive power, but Jacks ideas,

She thinks she is being watched. Slio Inoks holdness; and, another more cer SIEMSSEN & CO., tain olue, sho looks at furniture shops. You can see her fitting the wardrobes into imaginary empty houses.
