the time of Albano to the present day has
more perfectly rendered the inner struc-
ture and subtle modelling of surface, the
peculiar quality and graceful action of a
child in perfect health than has Perrault
in this masterpiece. It is an augury for
good when such picture as this is
shown to our people so that they may
see what childhood should be. AS the
Greek matrons gazed earnestly on the
statutes of their ideal gods, with the
hope that their children might embody
such beauties, SO many modern mothers
profit by keeping before them this ideal
of perfect child.
After its exhibition at the Salon, this
painting was purchased by that art low
ing American, Mr.. Thomas Doliber,
senior member of The Doliber- Goodale
Company of Boston. better known as the
proprietors of Mellin's Food. At the
time of purchasing the picture Mr.. Doll
ber's sole intention was to place it in his
private gallery, but American progress
siveness asserted itself, and. as result,
Perrault's picture was sent to the Column
bian Exposition to constitute the exhibit
ton of Mellin's Food instead of the Gus
tomery jars, bottles, labels and placards.
In addition to this the picture was re-
produced with all the marvellous fidelity
and force that modern skill and >knowl-
edge have lent the half-tone, and pub
lished simultaneously with the opening
of the Exposition in the Youths Com
panion of Boston. This was, without
question, one of the most beautiful adj
vertisements that has eyer appeared in
any publication in the world. Perfect
reproductions of the same picture on a
smaller scale quickly followed in all the
leading magazines, Century publishing a
long article descriptive of the picture and
its author.
Such wide publicity soon brought
hundreds of letters from all parts of the
country, and even from abroad, request
ing copies of the picture. No steps had
been taken at that time to meet this de-
mand, but now the Mellin's Food Com.
pany have added the growing feature to
this great advertising enterprise by hav-
ing the picture printed on heavy plate
paper for framing, a copy of which they
offer to send absolutely free TO any
mother sending them label taken from
a jar of Mellin's Food. To those who
are not now users of Mellin's Food the
picture will be sent for six ceuts in
stamps to cover the cost of mailing.
Such enterprise deserves the highest
commentator that words can frame.
