great success with it he should be entirely
original in all he does, for originality

more OF fad which will come and go at
various times, one can certainly by hard

display graceful lines and curves, and, in
fact, to bring out more character in the

is that on account Of the lack of color an
artist would have a much harder time to
bring out any expression in the face, and
ii would also take much skill to be able
to display the right amount of character,
which must necessarily be brought out.
Also another disadvantage an artist would
have in putting a portrait on wood by
burning Is that he couldn't give the real
fineness to the picture which ii would nat
urally deserve. 1 don't think, though, that
it will be long before some of the Eastern
artists will make speciality of doing por-
traits In this work. The thing which 1t is
most suited for, and what it really is in
tended for, is the decoration of ornaments,

rare bargains that are offered at this
place. In style and quality they rep
resent the very best that the largest

reason for this selling at prices that
