all of Gansborough's interest aroused, and in
which he executed his design swiftly, fawlessly
and with the peculiar magic of his individuality

of the other pictures by him here shown is in
a totally different vein large equestrian por-
trait of General Honeywood. More charm is
present in his Mrs. Fitz Herbert" in his

cial value, for student of his work, that ac-

time somewhat overcautious and deliberate
treatment of a theme graver than those which

paint portraits of beautiful women and children,
of courtly men. 1t is the more interesting,
therefore, to him at work over the celebra-
tion of portentous military parsonage.

A pleasant if deceptive introduction to British
painting is offered here by British architecture.
Their pavilion in the Rue des Nations presents
the English in more than favorable light. Re
producing the lines of a typical manor of Tudor
times, Kingston House. at Bradford on Avon it
stands for a precious epoch in the history of
English taste Simplicity is the ruling motive
in this thoroughly national pavilion. The last
word seems, indeed, hardly the one to apply,
for it suggests something ephemeral, not to say
festive. and these dignifed walls really have
the air of having been transplanted bodily to
the banks of the Seine from some stately park
across the Channel. Because the park is absent,
because there is not even a small formal garden
around it, the design can exert only a mOdcum
of the charm which belongs to it. But with all
drawbacks considered it is still a beautiful
work of art expressive in it's every line of the
genius of a great people in one of its happiest
moments. The fact that that moment dates
back a few centuries is a little discOncerting.
1t is hard, though inevitable, to reflect that the
builders of this mansion only copying work
done by their ancestors; that in it they have
conmemorated an artistic inspiration separated

THE EXTRAORDINARY SALES OF

Three Months Sales Bring In over $2o.-
600. OOO-Comparison with the Revc-
nucs of over a Century Ago.

The last quarter of the fiscal year
ending March 81 1900, was record
breaker I'm the sale Of postage stamps,
the total for the three months reaching
/, OS0 ISL SIS stamps, valued at $50, 155, ll9.
High-water mark up to this time was
reached I'm the corresponding quarter
ending March 81, 1898, when the total
was g69, 3l6, 53S stamps, valued at SlS,-
Gil $685. but It will be seen that the last
quarter exceeded that amount by ILL.,
600, 900 stamps and $2144, 900.
There is evidence that the present
quarter may go ahead of the last, be-
cause the sales for April were 449 626, 625
stamps, valued at $S524, 1856 and April
has only thirty days. If the same rec
ord is kept up in May and June the
sales for the current quarter Will reach
the unprecedented quantity of 1,33S,S19,-
S75 stamps, valued at $25,572,5 5S.
Last week 100, 1873, $50 stamps were sold
for $2,432, 1872, an average of more than
q, 900, 900 stamps a day, valued at over
$4,000. This illustrates the enormous
business done by the postal service.
In 1889 the gross revenues of the post
office department were 81 500, which Is
just about the amount paid to maintain
the experiment of rural free delivery
over in Carroll county Maryland, since
the first of last December The follow
ing year, under Samuel Osgood, the
first postmaster general after the con-
stitution, the revenues advanced to
$33. 000 and in 1929, seventy years ago
they reached the magnificent sum of
81, 1000 900. In 1870 the entire postal re-
ceipts from all sources were $1,000, 600
