surpassed the others. Several Veronese
pictures were shown By the stereopticon.
Mrs. Haberly has chosen some OF the
greatest masters of the brush in
the list which she has been giving
from the period OF the renaissance. Com
paratively few pictures remain extant of
any of the artists, and many of the finest
frescoes are disappearing through the eff

which has been one of extreme interest.
and has presented in the most attractive
manner the artists, their lives, their meth
DDS and their works. and illustrated with
the stereopticon. After the lecture last
