Fenwick�������s Career begins: Really, mother, I can�������t sit any more. I�������m that stiff!-and as cold as anything. So said Miss Bella Morrison, as she rose from her seat with an affected yawn and stretch. In speaking she looked at her mother, and not at the painter to whom she had been sitting for nearly two hours. The young man in question stood embarrassed and silent, his palette on his thumb, brush and mahlstick suspended.
