Rcmbrandt's "EHrects."

There Is always temptation to say
that an unusual thing which we see in
q picture is not natural; but when we
think about it, and observe Nature for
that purpose, we find that scarcely any
thing could be too strange to be true;
and this is all the more noticeable
when, as in the pictures of Rembrandt,
the great effects are those of light and
shade. II you want to prove to your
self how wonderful these effects are,
choose some landscape which has n
variety of objects in Il, and study its
aspects on dull, cloudy day. With no
sun and no shadow, how little interest
IL has. Go 70 the same spot on q
bright day, and see how tho sun will
make the clump of trees stand out, and
look as If each separate twig was joy
Gus with life; see the brook simmer
like ripling silver where the sunlight
falls on it, and note how dark and cold
it looks in the shade; see how black tho
rock is under the wide-sprcading tree.
and how the grass, that Is like an en-
erald in the light places, grows dull and
brown where tho sunshine does not
reach IL. Could there be stronger con-
trasts than those you see, side by side,
when you give your thought to itP
And perhaps you wonder that You have
not remarked all this before.
Now, Rembrandt had quick eye for
all these marvellous effects Of light, and
no painted just such things as he had
seen, and nothing else. In every pic
ture there are particular points upon
which to fix the eye, and, though the
whole was painted with exquisite skill,
and the smaller details would bear ex-
animation Just as the blades of grass
and the smallest flowers in landscape
would do, we do not care to examine
them; tho one great interest holds our
attention, and we arc satisfied with
that. Clara Erskine Clement, IN SO.

the part of the school committee are
named as the causes of this state of af-
fairs. The great value of practical
education that will prove to be useful
in actual life is being more clearly rec
ognized every year.
