A FAvoRITE OF FASHION.

A young German-American painter,
Wilhelm Heinrich Funk, who enjoys so
great a reputation as portrait painter
in America, is winning golden opinions
abroad. This is the first time that Mr..
Funk has exhibited in london. but his
exhibition is interesting from the fact
that. instead of bringing over a number
of portraits from America of people un-
known there, he is showing nothing but
portraits of well known English social
personalities that he has painted since
he went TO England. some months ago.
The chief item in the collection was TO
have been full length portrait of Prin-
cess Christian (who has refused all re-
quests to sit for her picture for the last
20 years.; but, owing TO her royal high
ness indisposition and the treacherous
weather. the sittings had 10 be postponed
until later. and a most brilliant pre-
liminary sketch of the princess head is
all that there is to show for the mo-
ment TT is no wonder that in a collec-
ton of II portraits, which have been
painted in two months, the work should
be somewhat unequal" says Vanity
Fair in commenting, and that some of
them. such as the large canvas of Lady
Acland and the childs portrait, Master
Harry Stansfeld. would be better for a
greater degree of finish. But this is a
trifiing and easily rectified drawback
when compared with the brilliant flesh
painting and rich color which charac-
terize such portraits as Lady Elcho.
Lady Colin Campbell, Mrs. J. Ogilvy
Haig, Vicomtesse X. and the admirable
sketch Of Mrs. Brown Potter. which
was painted, il is said. in two sittings.
There is certainly no monotony in Mr..
Funk's portraits. He aims evidently at
making them not only good likenesses,
but essentially decorative. Nothing
could be more charming than the oval
portrait of Mrs. Ogilvy Haig, quiet and
harmonious in the tones of the dress
and background. which brings out the
delicacy of the flesh to perfection, and
certainly not many painters would have
had the pluck to put the brilliant en-
erald green background which makes
such an admirable contrast with Lady
Colin Campbell's black dress and black
Spanish hat and harmoniZes so well
with the warm ivory tints of the face"

THE NEW BRAIDED WALKING COSTUMES.

/ much better conditioned both in body
and mind.
Once upon a time it was the custom
for the ultra smart woman to pack her
trunks and fly away to Europe or some
spot in which iaxity in Lenten observ-
ance was not frowned upon. Women.
too, who had large country houses filed
them with congenial spirits and a mild
round of Lenten festivities were kept
up far from the disappearing frowns
of the shepherds of souls.
This later plan worked badly, how
ever. Rectors heard of the Sayety. and
the women who had not been invited to
the house parties assumed such right
eOus airs of indignation that those who
would revel out OF town found it best
to reveI alone. Yet many sensible We
men do spend the Lenten days in the
country. riding, driving and walking

the busy days that follow Easter.
Instead of idling through the season
with an occasional aesthetic visit TO

A CHARACTERISTIC STORY.

In a village in the English lake dis
trict a gentleman established library
for the benefit OF the people. and just
before il was opened Ruskin was asked
to inspect it.
He did so willingly, was much Cleased

pressing his approval, finally departed
with a promise TO send present of

nificent set of SCOTS novels.
The wife of The founder of the library
thought the books far too handsomely
got up for the purpose for which tkey
were intended and expressed this opin-
ION to the donor.
Madam" said he. IF the money the
books cost had been spent for floral
decoration or for wines for a dinner
nothing would have been said against
it; but because II was laid out for the
enjoyment of simple villagers it is con-
sidered extravagant."

fair sex in the making of mats. En-

Sembrich has a book in which every
performance at which she sings is re-
corded. Many women keep books in
which they record every performance
they witness. There was time when
just any old book, ledger or scrap
book, was thought quite good enough
for the preservation of programmes Of
operas, concert and theater, but that
is no longer the case. A special theater
book is now considered necessary pos
session by every theater going woman.

of beauty, and, if carefully and prop
erly kept, should prove joy forever,
and in years to come valuable in a
family. Each left hand page has
spaces which, when filed in, tell to
what place of amusement the owner
went on certain date, with whom she
went, what the performance was, who
were the leading performers, and then
there is room for her to criticise the
play and players. Space is also provid-
ed in which the comments of profess
sional critics may be inserted. The OPP
