manner of speaking OF his brother artists.
He was generous with praises of their talents,
commending much and criticisng little.
This need not I've surprising. Workers in
any field of art, who are sure of their ability
and position, are above jealousy. 1t is only
the mediocre, the pushing, anxious, unccr-
tain creatures, who tremble with fear every
time a rivals name is iiatteringly mentioned.
There is no school for caricature 1t

turists who send him specimens of their
work, accompanied 10y letters requesting

siderable trouble to do so. Every one Of
them sent me abusive letters in return. Now

Often in caricaturs the artist who draws
the picture is one man, and the designer an
other The draughtsman gets the money
and all the glory. This is not Mr.. Nast's
method. He is his own designer invariably

Punch. Its faculty meet once week to

present and makes his weekly cartoon from
their suggestions. The dinner occurs on
Thursday, and the cartoon must he drawn

Ii one wants to see how much caricature
as an art has advanced it is only neces ,ary
to turn to files of the comic papers during
the war. Upto that time each figure who
said anything TO the o,her figures was rep
resented with his speeches issuing from his
mouth in clouds like smoke. All that was
abolished twenty years ago, when artists
became skillful enough to make expression
more powerful than words, and when the
public had advanced far enough to under
stand a suggestion as readily As an explana-
ton.
In regard to ideas Mr.. Mast remarked
that they were the one possession which
seemed never to diminish by constant
giving. The more you give the more you
