PAINTED ADS.
The Startling Art Posters Of
the Art Club.
10 Announce the Exhibit Of Portraits
Of Women.
The Posters Are Few But Very Choice
and all Hand Painted.

One OF the most unique advertising
schemes ever sprung ON the Providence
public is the array of posters displayed
by the Providence Art Club TO attract at
tention to the loan collection OF portraits
OF women TO be exhibited in the eluh
gallery from April IS TO May S.
The exhibition OF portraits OF women is
new to Providence but follows the ex-
ample of New York and Boston. The
idea OF using posters drawn by the artist
mem bers of the club is, however, original,
unique, without precedent-and as an
idea has been rarely equaIled and never
excelled.
There are l6 Of these art posters in all, OF
various styles, from simple lettering to
grotesque and Beardsley- like figures. Mr..

BY the way they say that there is good
deal OF sand between here and California,
to which place the venturesome bicyciist

Now sand is not particularly beneficial to
bicycle riding. A good hard road
way or well trodden path Is far
preferable. Everybody and their
father, their brother, and their
cousins and their aunts seems to have
gone bicycle mad. The Whitten Cycle
Manufacturing Company, Infantry build
ing, are having a greater demand for
wheels than ever. The Victor for the
gentlemen and the popular Victoria for
the ladies take the lead. These wheels
have all the latest and improved conven-

waved to the engineer. who cid not see
