THe ANCIENT MASTERS.
Their Idees wholly at Variance witt
Those OF Modern Artists

Their Idcns wholly at Variance with
Those Of Modern Artists.
Tho great artists Of the fifteenth and
sixteenth centuries exhausted all the
motives Of modernized pagauism and Of
Christianity aud created freq art,
which continues active at the present
day in the spheres of portrait painting,
dramatic and historical incidept, land
scape, and genre; but the plastic arts
have lost their energizing hold on the
intellect OF the modern man. They arc
no longer capable of expressing our
ideas about God and the world. In an
age where science has replaced scholar
ship and literature, and where music is
the puissant exponent OF the modern
soul in all its manifold feeling and com
plexity of movement there is no longer
any need OF an art whose means Of ex-
preston appeal TO minds that are ac-
customed 70 think in metaphors and
myths. Our interest in the works of
the art OF the past is therefore as much
historical and curious rs IL is aesthetic;
II Is only by a mental and reconstruct
i've effort that we can penetrate the
spirit Of the ancient masters; and when
by dint Of affectionate study, sympathy
of temperament and intimate con-
temptation, we do seem TO succeed in
catching a glimpse OF their soul of
souls and vibrating for a moment in
unison with their cnthusiasms, we are
soon awakened 10 a sense OF the moral
abyss that separates us from them, and
our Joy is obscurcd by a veil of sadness
and regret
Never again will humanity recover
that poetical exaltation, that delicate
tenderness that exquisite sense OF
natural beauty, that charm OF Joyous
life, which enabled Lippo Lippi to con.
ceive and paint the Annunciation with
a pretty Florentine boy as the angel
and his wife Lucrezia Butt as the Vir-
gin. Never again will the painters
conceive the splendid architectural and
decorative backgrounds that the Floren-
tine Piero Pollajulo (i44s-i496) invented

The roads OF Europe are vastly bet
ter than ours France has 10000
miles of good roads, though her ter
ritory is only about four times as
large as that OF New York State. The
French Government spends $18, ,O00,-
600 year to keep them in repair; a.
bout as much as it costs to keep the
hotses in New York State for four
months.
Not only do good roads diminish
the cost OF farming, but they increase
the value of the farms. In all of New
Jersey there are several hundred a.
bandoned farms; in Union county,
where of late years some 600 miles
of improved roads have been built,
there is not single farm lying idle
In Parke county, Indiana, the chang
es caused by improved roads are thus
described:
The farmers hauled much bigger
loads and did it in March more east
lily than Auguct; wagons lasted great
deal longer; horses were rarely iniur-
ed and SO itpaid to keep better stock,
and, what was of very great impor-
tance, markets could be reached at
any season. The farmers, formerly
isolated for weeks together, discover
that they could go where they would
with ease, and at the very season
when they had the most leisure
To ride few miles sitter supper was
an actual pleasure, and soon almost
every school district had its social Oh
religious, literary or political organi
zation, and some had all four. There
has been general brightning up
The winter, once so gloomy TO the
isolated farmer, is now the season
when he really lives. Another effec
was to create sort of furcr for ell
egapt turnouts."
The changes thus described ar,
certainly worth the cost of building
good roads. And it may be sale
here that Mr.. POTTER quotes with ap
provol and belief the remark of
countryman, that the reads were no
well paved brcause rich people hat
come into the country, but that ricl
people had come because the roai
were well paved.-N. z. San.
