it does, the artistic possibilities CT the
modern gown. The bust of Miss Linda
Nigel, done in green marble, which is
best known to the art public us the
Screen Lady," is as classic both in
outline and treatment as though it had
been exhumed in the Island of Melos,
instead of originating in Mr.. Adams
studio in Brooklyn.
In his recent bust of his wife this
thoughtful artist has so managed the
pose and drapery as to reveal what ar
lists call the beauty lines of the neck
and shoulders to the fullest degree, pro-
ducing those exquisite curves which
suggest the best period of Greek sculp-
ture.
Some excellent work has also been
done by Mr.. Adams in his bas-relief of
Miss Mary S. Greene, now of Paris.
The bas-relief of Miss Greene is about
three-quarter length, the figure seated
in direct profile, with the delicate clas-
sic head, swanlike throat and sloping
shoulders sharply outlined on an un-
even background of marble. Every de-

The young duchess of Marlborough
has given the cachet of her approval
to this newest society fad by having her
quantity irregular features wrought
in the finest of Carrara marble by
noted Italian artist during her recent
visit to Rome, and famous sculptors
do not consider it in the least beneath
their dignity to devote their time and
art to the modelling of busts and medal
lions of lovely women.
j. S. Hartley, whose workshop-for
he does not call it studios simply
crowded with statues and busts of the
greatest men of this country and age,
declares that women are far more in
teresting as models than men.
There are so many beautiful lines
and curves to reproduce from the femi

honest fighter, Peter Maher.

my troubles. He is no better or no worse

Mr.. W. Clarke Noble, whose work in
bronze is SO often COMPOUNDED with that
of the great Partisan. Barrie, has done
some beautiful portraits in marble of
women and children. The best known.
perhaps, is the bust of Mrs. Frederick
Nelson, the sister of Mr.. Frederick Geb-

OF Mrs. Lurman, of Philadelphia, and
also OF Mrs. Randolph. wife of Mai.
But this work is not wholly confined
to men. Mrs Clio Hinton Hunellcr. who
