that wonderful capacity which made
oriental art pre-eminent prior to the
beginning of this century.
1t may be. however. that in the
western world the imitators of these
oriental decadents are merely initial
ors, and inspired neither by unrest, a
desire for discovery, or anything else
more worthy than to attract attention
and to create a sensation. Aubrey
Beardsley and his followers in this
country are pretty sure never to be
seriously trusted with any more am
bilious and dignified work than the
making of book covers and posters.
A modern Japanese artist in com
menting on European art said that in
their efforts at realism they tried to
deceive and failed, while in Japan the
artists frankly gave UP such impossi-
bic efforts and contented themselves
with merely making pictures That is
all very WELL but it happens not to be
true. The old artists OF the east We're at
once realists and poets. They made
things like to what they are and did
not leave them dead and dull, but gave
to them that life which imagination
alone can bestoW on any work of art
In thus expressing themselves with
Imagination the moderns are no whit
better and their sacrifices therefore go
for naught. In our study of Oriental
art it would be infinitely better for us
to seek the best methods, even though
they be rare, rather than to initiate the
pictures which we cannot possibly COM
prehend and which after all are only
half pictures at best. 1t is not unlikely
as the best instructors of art noW-a-
days say, that there is no study so
profitable as that CT the masterpieces

nese paintings and color prints was
on exhibition for several weeks and
the visitors of the masters of Ukioye
with the assistance of a catalogue
made by the best authority on ORR
entail art in this country, Professor
Fenollosa, curator of the Japanese de-
rartment Of the Boston Museum of
Fine Arts. 1t was the freely expressed
opinion of the majority of those who
constitute what is understood as the
world of art in New York that this ex-
hibition would attract no popular at
tention, but be from the standpoint of
entrance receipts a rather chilling
failure. But singularly enough it was
visited by pretty nearly all the art
lovers and studied to such good effect
that the lectures now being given by
Professor Fenoliosa on the art of
Japan at the Metropolitan museum
are eagerly attended and his views
and eEpositions receive the most care
full and considerate hearing. One of
the professors contentious, by the
way, entirely upsets the preconceived
notions of those who have accepted
The idea as correct that the Orientals
worked TO accomplish results upon en-
tirely different principles from Occi-
dentals and that their ideals were to-
tally opposed to either those of the
western classics of western moderns.
He maintains and illustrates the
points he makes by contrasting on
lantern slides eastern and western
work, that oriental art is great for
the very same reasons that European
art IS great. that in the time of its
greatness-and he comedies that the
present is a period of decadence-the
art CT China and Japan and the art

subtlest suggestion, in some places by
an outline only, yet of such sensitive
ness as to convey the desired impress
sion most vividly. In other places
he produces the result with a rough
wash. On the other hand the English
artist did his work with a minute finish
and carefully studied details. Yet each
of these pictures shows the hand of
a master.
In sculpture and specially in portrait
statues the early Japanese were great
artists, and as far back as the twelfth
century they produced sculptures
which contrast favorably with the fin
est examples of Italian art. One of
the illustrations Of this article is TAX
en- from a group of portrait statues Of
priests, while the contrasting western
example is Roman portrait head from
the Naples museum. Here a similar
spirit surely animated both artists.
Among the slides the professor used
is one on which are photographs of the
Apollo Belvedere and of a Buddhist
priest of the twelfth century. The lat
ter is not the inferior statue either in
dellcacy or firmness of touch. These
parallels might be carried out in sculp
ture and in painting to any length
ana the theory of the similarity of de-
sign and purpose between the strong
est opponents of eastern and western
art would always be strengthened
But oriental art is not what it was
Its greatness eliminated with the
period about 1850. when Kiyonaga was
the chief artist of Japan and the Vleca-
dence began with Utamaro and his as
sociates about the beginning of this
century. We have all been compelled

A LIVING CHAIN.
A Boys Reading Saves Comrades
Life.

Early in February some lads at
Sandy Hook, Conn, went skating on
Mantle mill pond, says an exchange.
The ice was thin in places and one of
them, Michael Heating, u years old,
skated over one of these spots, broke
through and slipped into the death
cold water.
quick, boys, let's make life chain
and save Mixer cried one of the
others. He was Stephen Kearne, a
good sized boy, Is years old. Little
Mike was meantime struggling and
screaming, the ice breaking off around
the edge of the hole. Stephen Keane
lay fiat down upon his stomach on the
ice some distance away. Then he
ordered one of the boys to lie down
behind him and grasp him firmly by
the ankles Behind that another lad
lay down and took hold of his ankles
in turn and SO on until all five of the
boys were thus held together.
Stephen Keane himself was at the
head of the line and he began crawling
out toward the hole where Mike fell
in. Before he reached him the lad let
go his hold and went down. 1t seemed
as though that life chain would never
reach the place. Mike went down and
came up for the third and last time
just as the rescuers' chain got to him
and Stephen grabbed him by the coat

to agree with him. In his discussion
of eastern landscape painting there is
no opportunity to disagree for he
shows that the Chinese in the twelfth
century made landscapes so similar to
the Dutch of the seventeenth century
that it is difficult in looking at re-
production to tell which is eastern and
which western.
The landscapes reproduced with this
article are of the eras mentioned and
it will be recalled that the Dutch in
the seventeenth century were the first
to take up landscape painting, the
Europeans previous to that holding
that it was a branch of art unworthy
of the spiritually minded. The Orient
al landscape art of six hundred years
ago is essentially modern and nearly
akin to the present ideals Of western
artists. 1t is probably however, not so
satisfactory to the general public to
see landscapes exhibited in parallels
as to see figure pieces and sculptures.
A very striking parallel is afforded
by bringing into juXtaposition female
head by Raphael with one by Ririomln
who flouriShed in the eleventh century,
and who was one of the greatest art
lists of China. The Chinese head con-
sistS of the merest outline, and al
though so very simple it is an extreme
ly delicate and sensitive rendering OF
the Chinese conception of beauty. 1t
is, moreover, as purely feminine and
as ideal in its way as Raphaefs. In
an entirely different view. Professor
Fenollosa obtains an amusing contrast
by making a comparison of two pic
lures of dogs one by Landsesr and the
other by the Kyoto artist, RoSetSu,
who lived in the beginning of this cen
fury. The Chinamans method of treat
ing the hair and its texture is by the

CHICKEN BLOOD.
Hints for Parents with Sleepy Chill
0ren.

!
This is a queer story of the strange
results of the TRANSMISSION of blood
| from a fowl to the veins of an infant,
says the New York World. A boy was
born to the wife of a farmer who lives
near Stonington, Conn. The child was
dying of hamilton. To save its life a
young doctor transfused into the in
fant's veins the blood of a fowl taken
from the farmyard.
The child became strong and is now
a vigorous lad of twelve. AS he grew
in years his mother observed that he
was intensely fond of out-of-door life
and cared nothing for the society of
other children. He always played with
the barnyard fowls, and his mother
found it difficult to make him stay in
the house. Not long since she dis
covered that he left his bed in the
night and was found in the chicken
house in the morning. She could not
break him of this habit She was dis
tressed, too, to see that he initiated
the fowls in his actions, walking with
elaboration, raising one foot high from
the ground and putting it down again
with all the dignity of a Brahma
rooster. He made strange, chicken
like noises, too, initiating the growing
of a gamecock and clucking softly to
himself as he strutted about the yard.
The birds of the yard followed him
about, and the hens clucked noisily at
him when he crowed. His mother
watched these strange developments
in her child with anxiety. Finally,
becoming alarmed she sent for the
physician who had saved the lads
life in infancy. He remained a fort
night on the farm studying the lad
Then he brought down from Boston
two other physicians. They, too,
watched the curious antics of the boy
with interest, and finally got permits
sion to take him to Boston. The lad
resisted that and fought the physicians
with strange sidelong kicks from his
heels and violent knocks from his
head.
He is now in Boston being treated
for his odd affection. 1t is said that
the only similar case reported in the
medical journals is that of an Austrian
who, having had bullock's blood
transfused into his veins, in later life
began to below and paw the ground
like an angry bull.
New York physicians scott at this
case reported from Stonington. They
say the transmission of characters by
blood TRANSMISSION is preposterous.

in Michigan, and was educated in its
schools and state university. He began
to practice law in 1866. In 1894 he was
