of the Worlds Fair, as it was of the
Centennial in 1876. that the great
majority of the visitors will derive
more pleasure from the pictures in the
Art Department than from anything
else. The Review of Reviews sent as
its special representative to Chicago,
in May, Mr. Earnest Knaufft, well
known art teacher of New York, who
is also writer upon art subjects and
who is known throughout the country
as the very successful and sympathetic
director of the art studies at Chautau-
qua from summer to summer. Mr..
Knautit has prepared for the Review
OF Reviews an extended and discrimin-
ating article telling in straightforward
way what are the merits and striking
features of each portion of the art ex-
hibit, and his article is illustrated
with outline pen sketches intended as
memoranda of the principal pictures.
The article serves as an excellent
general guide to the art department
and us an auxiliary to the mere for
NAL catalogue which gives the names
and numbers of the pictures.
Another important feature of the
June number of the Review of Reviews
is n well written forecast of all the
| nrin pinul conventions aud ,,atba.;,,,.
to be held through the summer and
autumn of 1893, particular attention
being given to the Forthcoming
World Congresses and other gather
ings which will be affiliated with such
congresses at Chicago. This article
should be retained for reference by all
who expect at any time through the
season to visit the Worlds Fair, An
especially timely feature of the num-
bers is an article on transit facilities
in Chicago and on the fair grounds.
1t has been specially prepared for the
Review of Reviews by Henry II. Wind
sor, who is editor of the Street Rail
way Review, of Chicago and thor
oughly conversant with the facts. The
facilities for handling the Worlds
Fair crowds as described in this arti-
Gle are nothing short of marvellous.
The character sketch of this number
of the Review is of Sir Fredrick Leigh
ton, the President of the Royal Aca-
deny and the official head of the
English art. 1t is Illustrated with
fine reproductions of Fredrick's most
famous works. The article is by one
of the editors of the Pail Mall Gazette,
who is an especially competent writer
on art subjects. The leading articles
in this number of the Review have a
wide range of interest, and the editor
ial department, the Progress of the
World, will attract attention from its
lucid discussion of the business and
monetary situation in the United States,
and other countries. This number of
the Review is illustrated with perhaps
even more pictures than usual, the
number exceeding one hundred. The
Review of Reviews succeeds each
month in securing the verdict ''indis-
pensable' from u great number of its
exchanges and from thousands Of its
readers, and this June number, so en-
tertaining on the one hand and so full
of convenient reference complaining on
the other, certainly merits that verdict
of indispensable" as we'll as any of its
predecessors.
If there is one subject more than an
other in which American girls and
women are interested during the sum
mer months it is lawn tennis, and no
one more competent TO discuss the sub
ject can be found than Miss Mabel
Esmonde Cahill, the lady champion Of
the United States, who contributes n
valuable article on "The Art of Play

Home Journal. Mr.. Willard Spenser
