The highest art is. not that which
deals with dreams and ehimeras it
rears its creation upon solid ground.
Hence art in its progress has come
nearer to the realities of things.
The old Egyptians had this idea, bpt
not the skill to carry it out. Their
delineatiOns are rude sketches, and
yet. they Represent tho life of thss' pc:
culiar people with wonderful fidelity.
The Greeks used living models Of
strength and beauty; the athlete of
the arena gave them a Hercules; the
lovely idol of the home was immortal
lied in stone or ON Canvass and bore
the name of heavenly gOddess-Arte-
missa, Hera, Aphrodite. When art re-
vived in Italy the artists sought their
images in nature. GiottO drew his
own sheep; Leonardo made the face
of a sOrdid beggar that of Judas ; an
Italian mother clasping her.child gave
Raphael his finest picture of the Virgin
and the infant Jesus.
This is the idea which the great art
critic, Ruskin, so earnestly insists on
the artist must see nature truly, love
nature passiOnately, and reproduce the
pictures which nature already gives in
her living landscapes and glowing
forms.
Nor less should the artist sympa--
thize with the opinions and sentiments
ofhis fellows He will fail to please
unless he takes what his age gives, and
employs himself in identifying and
ennobling the general spirit of histime.
The Greek artists at Phile built tenn
pie according to the general plan. Of
an Egyptian sanctuary, but they sos
blended Attic grace with its stern and
gloomy forms that their work was
known among the people of the Nile
as the Palace of Beauty. And indeed
such an accommodation to prevailing
sentiment is not only polite, but even
necessary to the truth of nature. For
the artist leads life apart, where he
is in danger of being led astray by i'm
practicable theories and vaguesdreams.
The dictates of the common judgment
will often chaser his eccentric inspir-
atoms. On this account Apelles used
to exhibit his pictures at the window Of
his studio, and there, in hiding. listen
to the comments of the passersby; a
cobbler would teach him what was
wanting in the painted shoe; rhet-
Orician how philosophers gown
should hang; a soldier bow a spear
should be poised and q shield uplifted>
Thus the common judgement Of men
help to bring erratIc genius to the ma
ture.-(FiOm Oct. "Houas and School. y

Why the Japanese shave the
Head.

Mr.. Griffis, in his admirable work
"The MikadO's Empire" gives many
interesting incidents in the history OF
the Japaneze. Many of the medieval
military customs were very interesting.
During this period the habit originated
of the men shaving the hair off their
temples and from the middle of the
scalp, and binding the long cue into a
top-not, which was turned forward and
laid on the scalp. The object of this
was to keep the hair out Of the eyes
during battle, and also to mark the
wearer as a warrior. Gradually it be-
came a universal custom, extending
to al classes.
When, in 1878, the reformers per-
suaded the people to cut off their knots
and let their hair grow, the latter re-
fused to ''imitate the foreigners" and
supposed they were true conservatives,
when. in reality, the ancient Japaneze
knew nothing Of shaver faces and
scalp, or of top-knOts. The ancient
warriors wore mustaches. and even
beard. The practice of keeping the
face scrupulously bare, until recently
so universally observed except by bot
anists and doctors, is comparatively
