PAINTINGS OF CHRIST.
The Face as Depicted by Some of the Nor
Modern Artists.

The Face as Depicted Dy some Oh Tie noFe
Modern Artists.
Among the more modern paintings
representing the Saviour is that by Cor
reggie painted in the sixteenth cen
fury. It represents Christ with short
curly beard. with long waving hair, sur
mounted by a crown of thorns. There
is a look of mute anguish On his face
that is heartrending, but nevertheless
the face is rather weak.
The most terrible likeness is that
painted at about the same tine as that
of Correggio by Albert Durer. 1t rep
resents a powerful face, with a Grecian
cast of countenance, with eyes distorted
by pain and anguish, and even trlte
of anger is apparent
The Christ of Raphael, a contempt
rary of both the above, is an essentially
Italian work, the face being Italian,
although the model for the forehead and
upper face was evidently a woman.
The Rembrandt Christ Of the seventeenth
century wears an unpleasant expression
about the mouth and has too long a face
to be perfect, yet it is one of the great
artists last efforts.
Perhaps the most fantastic picture OF
Christ is that painted in the fifteenth
century by Leonardo da Vinoi. 1t rep
resents the Saviour looking over his
shoulder, a cynical smile Oh his face
A hand may be seen in his hair, evil
IDENTIFY drawing the head to one side. 1t
cannot compare in beauty, however, to
the same artists face of Christ in the
famous Lords Supper. -
The noblest and the grandest is that
by Titan, painted in the sixteenth CEN
fury. 1t is a face of resignation, OF
firmness--strong, yet mild; mild, yet
strong. Titan was 80 years old when
he painted this, and it is considered as
one OF his masterpieces.
OF the absolutely modern paintings
of Christ those of Munkaczy, AIRY Shelf
fer and Gabriel Marx rank highest Still
every one of these is an imaginary pro-
duction, and the Saviour will still con-
tinue to be the "Man of Mystery. -

Ball Lightning.

The occurrence of what is known as
ball lightning is SO rare that every in

Mig, which was experienced by dis
tinguished surgeon of Louvain, who had
gone to visit a patient in a neighborlng
town He was overtaken by thunder
storm, and what he described as ball
of fire descended upon and rendered him
for some time unconscious.
On coming to himself he found that
the cloth of the umbrella which he had
been holding was completely burned of
its steel framework, the metal being
twisted into every shape. He attributes
his safety to the circumstance that the
umbrella had a wooden handle. Had 1t
been of metal he must have been lnstan-
taneously killed. Chambers Journal
