Among the progressive leading Art Pnb-

nection with this it should be remembered
that only the small orders were sent by

Don't call Them Iaboring Men.

Persons sometimes speak Of the occupa-
tion of a lazy loafer as laboring man.
He has no more right to be classed with
the laboring men than he has to be classed
with ministers or lawyers Men are some
times out of employment and are compelled
to be idle, or may probably be taking a
few days recreation, which they have a
right to do, but they do not belong to the
"dead beat" class, who are in every bodys
way. They are not only nuisance but
are despised by all. They are living from
the sweat of some ones brow. If they can
not sponge living they will steal it du-
ring the night from the laboring man. No
laboring man wishes to be seen in their
company, and no one despises the "dead
beat" more than the laboring man.

progress that Art has made in this country
during the last quarter of a century. 1t is
but few decades since, that those who de-
sired to beautify and adorn their homes,
were obliged to depend almost entirely on
foreign artists. But such state of affairs
in this age of progress and Improvement
could not last long with the great Ameri-
can people. Genius from the East to the
West, from the north to the Gulf of Mexico
on the south, answered the demand for
beauty, taste and refinement, and to-day
our leading artists are not surpassed by the
