THE ALDINE cHROMOs FOR 1874
+. NJ. CHAPMAN

The two chromos presented TO sub
scnbers of THE ALDINE for 1874 are such
beautiful and unusual works of art-faith-
full copies of actual paintings in oil made
by the celebrated artist, Thomas Moran,
from studies of nature-that we feel justi-
fed in calling special attention 10 them
istlc of the East and the West: the White
Mountains of New Hampshire, and the
Cliffs of Green River in Wyoming Terri
tory. In all the range of grand and
beautiful American scenery, it would he
difcult to find two more picturesque or
charming views, uslike is nature in her
varying moods, YET appropriate coopanion
pieces.
The view In the White Mountains gives
the beholder grand and sublime scene
of the most famous region in New Eng
land, picture which is filled with the
very spirit of the region. The subject is
treated with much breadth and feeling
without an overcrowding of peaks and
cliffs which so often spoil the artistic eff
feet. The top Of the principal mountain
is surrounded by clouds of magical beauty,
which add life TO the scene, indicating, as
they do. action The picture is one of the
elements earth, air, water-thrown to
gether by the hand Of the great artist
Such picture is always fresh, and never
grows dull. The dashing brook, the rich
group of autumn-clo,hed trees, the deep
down, far-away meadows, the stream
rushing down the mountains side. the
crags and rocks, the lin. of cloud mys-
teries, and innumenble mountains be-
yond, all of which the artist gives us in
this picture. make it the most notable anil
really artistic chrome ever offered to the
American public.
In pleasing contrast with the blue
clouds and cool heights OF the White
Mountains, We have in the Cliffs of Green
River golden, sun-bathed landscape
with sky full of glory-a breaking away

liant, but none too much SO for the heart
OF The Great Ames ;can Desert, where this
scene is laid. The foreground of this
picture is Very rich, and the study OF trees
is delicate and natural One may care
fully examine the whole list of chromos
offered 10 the public, and fail to find else
where so much real artistic excellence as
in these two representative landscapes.
They are every way worthy OF the great
journal OF America-TnE ALDINE. These
chromos are SO fine, they can only be
compared to the highest priced pictures
offered in the market. 1t would be an
injustice 20 place them by the side of any
Of the cheap prints commonly sent out by
newspapers as premiums to their subscri-
bers.

Competition in business is not onl

Competition in business is not only
tire life of trade; but it regulates prices,
and compels dealers to treat their custom
ers courteously and fairly. If there was
BOT one hardware store in town. and no
crmpetition in that line of trade rear,
our citizens would be obliged to pay more
than they Go now for that line of goods,
and the same rule holds good in any 9th
er branch Of trade. A monopoly of trade
is what all are interested in preventing.

Death Among the Karens.

AMONG the Karens everything pertain
ing to death is regarded with absolute
horror. The clothes, books and other
possessions of the deceased are all COM
mitted to the flames; and any one who
should knowingly appropriate any part
OF them would be considered uncleanfor-
ever. Even the piece of work on which
man or woman happens to be engaged
when a death is announced to him must
be at once abandoned, and, however valu-
able or costly it is, never resumed. Thus
a house or boat in which is invested per-
haps nearly all a poor mans little fortune :;
a valuable web of cloth that has cost some
feeble woman months of wearying labor

just about to repay the whole seasons toll

ers should chance to be engaged on their
work when they see or hear of a death.
This copyist and his wife, a worthy young
couple, had been since their marriage
zealOusly engaged in trying to build them
selves a house, living meanwhile in an old
one near by. The frame of the new build
ing was already erected, but funds were
wanting for its completion, and these the
young couple were earning, the man by
writing, the woman by weaving, when
death put stop to their plans. A few
days more would have completed the
books and the cloth, and the sale of them
would have supplied ample means to fin
ish the house. But now the innocent
volumes on which the patient copyist had
spent long days of toll must, with the
fine cloth of the poor wife, be consumed by
fire, and even the frame of the new house

any of them after such a casualty would,
in the estimation of these superstitiOus
Karens, involve a curse more fatal than
the poisoned tunic of Nessus conveyed to
Hercules, entailing calamity not only to
the corporal part, but to the soul through
all future states of being. In accordance
with the Karen custom, as soon as the
young cOpyist had ceased to breathe,
every part of the body, even the face, was
closely enwrapped in coarse white cloth,
and the corpse laid out on a bench in
the outer room, where all who came in
might weep over it. Rice was poured
down in piles at the head and feet, to-
gether with fruit, tobacco, cigarettes, and
betel-Duts; and on one side of the body
was placed a basket containing a drink
ing-cup, knife and spoon, and some
cooking utensils. The spirit of the dead
man was then invited to eat freely as
while in the body, and exhorted not to be
ashamed, whilst all his deceased friends
who had preceded him to the land of
spirits were urged to return and escort
their brother to his destined abode.
Meanwhile the nearest relatives, with the
young wife at their head, crowded round
the dead body, Frustrated themselves with
walls and lamentations, and implored the
departed to return and bless their longing
ears once more with the sound of his IA
miliar voice, Others sang dolorous dit
ties and chanted songs in fgurative Ian
guage and in a peculiar measure.-LIp-

~ after which he said aloud:

Cora felt like fainting, but her curiosity
was more than match for her weakness.
Smythe looked toward her, laughed a
little, gasping laugh, and tried to say that
this ridiculous mistake could be easily

Cora trembling all over
