Ever Ancient and Ever New.

In the account of the Arbor Day exer-
cises at the high schools yesterday will
be found very thoughtful address by
Principal McCaskey, in which he makes
use Of an extract from the Lancaster
INTELLIeENcER Of April 80, 1900, on
the subject Of the needfulness of tree
planting, In quaint and earnest manner
the same lesson is enforced which the
INTELLreENcER Of to-day essays to
teach. 1t is a precept ever ancient and
ever new, and the delicate imagery with
which Mr.. McCaskey surrounded it and
the local historical tinge that he gave it
in his address to the pupils Of the high
schools will leave lasting impression
for good on those who are TO be as citi
zens the future bulwarks Of the state.

The speclal value of proofs therefore con.
sists mainly OF three things. First be-
cause OF the great care exercised In obtain
ing the choicest impressions under the en-
grayer's personal supervision. SECONDLY,
because of their limited number and conse-
quent rarity, And thirdly, because Of the
costly quality OF the India paper that 4.

often, for fine pictures, beautiful grade of
Japanese paper used, which has peculiar
sickness OF texture aud surface, and in as
thin and transparent as rice paper. Proofs
on real satin are also highly esteemed, and
are very effective for some kinds OF pic
lures, though for my part don't like them
much. They are very expensive, aud that
seems to be- she chief reason why they are
so highly priced by some. For there are a
good many people who value a picture, not
according to lis artistic mesif, but only
according 10 Its price.
