On the right forearm the most

piece completes the decorations on
that arm. On the left forearm to-
bacco leaf, worm eaten and with a.
Japanese landscape upon it is shaded
with such a subtle art that no trace
OF the instrument is visible. The COL
oring blends from a deep shadow to the
whiteness OF the skin as softly as the
viignette otaphotograph. On the upper
above the leaf is great spiders web
with the willy insect in the middle and
several flies entangled in the nets

OF the drawing is so striking. The

straight as q plumb line. The piece

piece and the wonder only increases
with a careful inspection. To be sure
the peculiar aud inimitable style of

adorn, besides Mr. Geffeney, some ofthe
most prominent people OF the world.
Hori Chic, the Japanese artist tat
tooer, is singularly gifted man and
is'not 80 years old at the present
time. He was formerly a jinricksha
coolle-one OF the miserable slaves
who trundle people about in a small,
two-wheeled vehicle-and, as is the
custom with that class of people, he
had a local artist tattoo his body.
> Becoming interested in the operation,
he attempted the use Of the needless,
and soon discovered his rare artistic
ability. For seven years now he has
been the leading artist in Japan for
peoples cuticles, and has made rep
utation and fortune. His renown
has so spread Of recent years that
every prominent traveller who visits
Japan adds a goodly portion OF his
money to Chio:s bank account, and
bears proudly away the indelible
traces Of the Jap's wonderful craft.
1t has become necessary to make ap-
pointments a long time ahead, and
visitors frequently send their names
to Arthur & Bonds curio establish
ment, where Hori is, two or three
weeks in advance OF their coming.
The pieces of work which Mr.. Geffen-
ey carries, and which are herewith H.
lustrated, are all upon his arms. They
are remarkable for their lines and
shading. The straight lines are as fine
as those drawn with the sharpest pen
and as true as if laid out with ruler.
Strangely enough, the Japnever makes
asingle mark to guide his eye, nor does
he use any artificial means to draw
the lines or figures before commencing.
He simply goes calmly to work on his
victim with the needles, aud never
even washes the member until he has
done with it. His method OF proceed

Hori Chic has had some royal pa
irons and many distinguished travel
ers bear his pictures upon their per-
sons. An English nobleman who once
visited Japan became enamored of
splendid-looking Japanese woman who
resided there. His intatuation ex-
ceeded the usual bounds oflove and he
sought out the artist tatooer and had
the lady's portrait carefully pricked
into his white skin. Hori Chic made a
beautiful likeness and the smiles which
his sharp needles left will never fade
or dim when age has madei it's wrinkles
in the fair girls face and time has
harro we'd out all the old love-lit
chances. The Englishman willingly
paid $3.50 for the everlasting portrait
and graciously submitted to the pain
that his inordinate affection cost him.
Robinson, who was recently killed
in the orient by Hetherington, was or
namented by Hori, and bore upon his
breast a proud English vessel as she
rode in the stream. On his arms, too,

One Of the most beautiful designs is
borne by An En- ,lish society lady OF

swallows and extends from herround-
ed shoulder down her tapering arm
and nearly to her wrist. 1t is singu

son Of Henery w. Longfellow, who
has Travelled extensively, is exquisite

work is that of Hori Chic and it cost
over 81, 900. He has q large serpent
wound about his leg which is startling
in it's realistic coils.
On his back is a decided departure
from the usual designs. 1t is a gigan-
tic dragon, with all the horrors to
which vivid Japanese negotiations
have bent their ingenuity, and in its
wide-open mouth is a figure Of Budda,
the god idol which the people worship.
