the proper writing If his name is ''Wu

the difference in the world to the pol

ART AND FASHION.

The New York Sun is having a little
fun with Mr.. Charles Dana Gibson. the
artist. 1t notes that i'll (; drawing Of
his, published in Il comic paper this
week. lie shows his, heroine sitting at
breakfast in an evening frock. With
bare neck and shoulders and arms as
the Young person so depicted is sup
posed To he fashionable. the Sun thinks
that this is all the more surprising.
But why should the Sun be so critical?
If we grant poetic license to the poet.
why, pray, not artistic license TO the
artist: If the Gibson girl under re-
View-wc have not seen the picture
is truly tiibsonian. and il her clothes
are Of the correct pattern and not 100
abundant at the critical time, what
boots it il there be on the table chops
and tomato sauce, instead OF cola
tongue. salad aud ices2 ART can well
afford 10 rise above the commonplace.
But the sun suggests f1atterlnS IN
noyation. Perhaps, it says. Mr..
Gibson has fallen among the Philis-
tines. At one of our most-talked-of no.
tells few weeks ago, a large matron,
OF the new-rich variety, astonished all
belrolders by appearing in The break
fast room the day after her arrival
from the vast and bounding West in
such attire, with the addition Of dla-
monds. But that was Il different story
altogether. Really, our artists ought
not 10 take their notions Of fashion
from the backwoods.'
Is this the beginning Of 4 revolution
in fashion: Truly has it been Said,
Time is long and art is fleeing.

blue, green, pink, rose, or cream, with
