Art Of Ornamental Book Bin ding Likely
to Become n Mere Trade


An art which is carried to high
degree OF excellence in the East. but
which seems IN some danger of de-
caying, is that of ornamental book
binding. Some notion OF the skill
of oriental craftsmen in this branch
OF design may be gathered from
specimens given in the latest issue
of 1.-The journal of Indian Art and
Industry" The best of these speci-
mems, says Col Holbien Hendley.
come from Ulwar. and are doubtless
of Persian origin. Few approach in
goodness of design and in carefulness
of execution the work of Karl AIMED
and his sons, who We're for some
years in the employ OF the chief ef
Ulwar The grandsons have now
succeeded to the sons. however. and
in their hands the art is likely to
become mere trade In India
man of real genius develops an art
from some hints he receives from
strangers. or, it may be- discovers 1t
himself. but from jealousy or from
fear of destroying his monopoly
teaches only the members OF his own
family, who may or may not share
his skill. and thus in the course of a
generation or two nothing remains
but shadow or parody of perhaps
an exquisite production.
In the Ulwar book-bindings the
ornament is somewhat after the old
Groller style, in which the colors are
painted on the boards and are not
inlaid. In most OF the designs the
pattern is produced by the use OF
brass blocks. The colors are then
painted on with the brush. Some
times the Ulwar artist colors the
whole OF the ground. and at others
only part of it. so as to produce very
different effects by the use of the
same blocks The effect is remark
ably fine and is comparable to some
of the design work on some OF the
most beautiful productions OF the
more famous china manufactures.
The bindings are expensive, as they
are all handmade and a great deal
OF gold is used. A bargain may be
made, however. with the present
artists, who ask for as much as they
can get As their work is curious
and valuable, they have, as a rule.
very little difficulty in disposing of
it Numerous specimens have been
made for the queen and other distin-
guished persons. They all show
more or less similarity to the best
specimens of Persian workmanship,
of which the binding of the koran
purchased by the Emperor Aurung-
zebe and now in the royal library at
Windsor is particularly interesting

shepherds the angel spoke face to face, and
there is a Christmas sentiment i'll all these
gay streets and jostling crowds that tho
wise men of our own day are not always
the first TO understand
In a few days more the evergreens will
have faded, and we shall be going about
our business with all the stern realities Of
the new year before us. But we shall
carry something over from this great holi-
day that will not fade if we care to keep
1t green, new impulse of faith and love
that will keep the world still growing
brighter and better because of Christmas
day .-Philadelphia Times.
