The Ideal Homo.

An exchange in speaking Of
the ideal home says it Is the one
that ministers to the needs of all
those who make it, and is the
place where sympathy, interest,
intelligent understanding of even
the modes of its circle, inspira-
ton, and above all, repose are
found. Continuing, the same
paper says: 1.-THE ideal home
ministers intelligently to the
needs of the spiritual and intel
lectual nature, as we'll as the
physical. Its development unto
perfection depends OH the COM
bined efforts of its responsible
members. The ideal home was
never attained by the coopera-
ton of all. Thss does not mean
that each shall fit himself into a
mold. A perfect home is like a
perfect mosaic, where each part,
with its individual difference,
fits in its place to make the pei
feet design. The corner stone
of the ideal homo Is love it is
love that is its life; love Is its
inspiration, its defense, its crown
of victory. Sorrow. defeat.
shame itself, are vanished where
love has its perfect work, o
world. where is thy stingf O
poverty, where is thy victory?
is the plea Of him who is shell
tered III the love that makes the
ideal home. "-OxpAaH's Friend.

/ A Young Man Known in Houston
Makes His Mark In New York.
| NJ. A. Edmonds OF New York City u
rapidly acquiring great fame both in this
country and in the old world He is .
brother of Joe Edmonds. and an uncle Of
Roy Edmonds OF this city. and IL himself
we'll known In Houston. Mr. Edmonds has
painted a number Of pictures Of prominent
Houstonians, among them being Judge
Crosby, Judge Hill. q. Raphael. Hy Fox
and d. G, Smith.
Below is given q clipping from the
United States Financial and Mercantile
Examiner OF New York City Of October 2,
1897:
American arts have been steadily gain
Ing a most prominent position within tho
last few yeare. So much so that we may
now take rank with the countries OF the
old world. In nothing, in things pertain
Ing TO art, has more progress been made
than In the painting and drawing OF por-
traits and miniatures. One OF our country
wcmen Ia now winning high fame In Eng
land In the painting OF miniatures. and she
has won the highest recommendations from
the royalty and nobility OF that country.
Mr.. A. Edmonds. 1877 Fifth avenue. is
showing, at the Institute fair, some very
fine portraits and miniatures, and in the
latter his work can be classed with that
OF other leading American artists Mr.. A.
Edmonds was born In Germany. He came
to this country when three years old, stud
led at Cccper Union and later passed with
honors through the Academy of Design,
from which he received bronze medal.
His speciality is miniature painting. We
have studied his work In his studio, and
can say hds work is wonderfully true to
nature; his art in the blending and manip-
ulation of colors Is indeed marvellous,
while the light and shade show the master
talent. Mr.. Edmonds has done two por
traits OF Andrew Carnegie, one In oil, the
other in pastel These were sent to Pitts
burg Pa He also did portrait of the
late Mrs. Egleston, wife OF Professor Egles-
ton of Columbia College, said by Professor
Bsleston to be better portrait than any
OF the thirty he has hnd painted by the
greatest European masters.
Mr.. Edmonds deserves all the fame he
enjoys for his contributions to art and
well sustains his prestige as portrait and
painter.
