There is no accounting for tastes. What

desirability and in refinement OF taste IN
the matter of furniture is the saddle bag

Among the trades IOlhS WIZ diS iapiult
learning to use art as stepping stone IN
their business are the tobacco makers.
Some extremely clever and well executed
designs are noted, and donOt fail to attract
the most desultory attention. Among the
latest are pair of pictures illustrating the
old story OF the old darkey, who was steal
ing honey in bee tree when something
"darkened the hole" In this case the
honey is a box of Blank Il Smith 3 tobacco,
and the accessories of bear, hollow tree, big
bear and outer darkey holding fast 10
bruins tail are depicted in truthful and
telling manner. The work, besides, indi-
cateI that some poor but able artist
finds employment. Another striking
bit of drawing is the large advertisement OF
maker of spool cotton. The East river
bridge occupies the foreground while across
the distance is the firm name. 1t is written
on the sky in letters formed by the smoke
issuing from tall chimney, and is strik-
ing bit of clever drawing and COlOring. The
ocean steamer lines are employing cOnsid-
cradle talent also. The vessels are depicted in
way full of action and artistic merit. The
waves tumble along in a natural and liquid
manner and a CLEAN of sunshine is let into
one Of these pictures in way that betrayS
the artists brain and hand in the original.
All these hands are pleasant to note as in
dicating the artists field, at least in the
matter Of "pot-boilers.
