JAPANESE PAINTERS.
The Brushes They Use and the Manned
of Their Use.

Tho Brushes They Use and the Manned
of Their Use.
The Japanese artist has made most
careful study of how to convey truths
in the most pleasurable way; how to
make his lines most beautiful, as
though speaker would use but words
of most exquisite sound. To do this
he has cultivated his touch" until it
is but mockery to compare it with that
Of his European brother. He has
learned to handle his brush with a
directness and precision which is
thing of wonder, and he has studied
with a patience beyond compare the
possibilities of each particular kind of
brush. He knows, for instance, that
one kind of brush may be used to ex-
press a bamboo stem and that an
other brush will be less efflcacious. He
knows how to fill each particular part
of that brush with certain amount of
color or water, so that angle move
ment Of the hand over the paper will
paint the stem, its light and shade.
its peculiar characteristics, complete.
And to the perfecting of that single
movement of his hand over the pa
per he and his ancestors have given
years of study.
Listen to a description by a Japan
csc. He is not an artist himself, but
is explaining how artists use certain
brush:
THE brush with color is passed over
a piece of paper with a heavy stroke
that spreads the bristles Of the brush,
at the same time bending them at the
tip. The brush is then turned so that
the bristles curve toward the artist,
and light stroke will produce the
hair-like lines. This is one of the
ways of painting the hair or fur of
animals"

4 Letter From the Executive Office Of Oregon.

Pe-ru-na is known from the Atlantic to
the Pacific. Letters of congratulation and
communication testifying to the merits Of
Pe-ru-na as a catarrh remedy are pouring
in from every State in the Union. Dr.
Hartman Is receiving hundreds of letters
daily. All classes write these letters, from
the highest to the lowest.
The outdoor laborer, the indoor artisan,
the clerk, the editor, the statesman, the
preacher-all agree that Pe-ru-na is the
catarrh remedy Of the age. The stage and
rostrum, recognizing catarrh as their great
est enemy, are especially enthusiastic in
their praise and testimony.
ANY man who wishes perfect health must
be entirely free from catarrh. Catarrh is
well-nigh universal; almost omnipresent
Pe-ru-na is the only absolute safeguard
known. A cold is the beginning of catarrh
To prevent colds to cure colds, is to cheat
catarrh out of its victims. Pe-ru-na not
only cures catarrh, but prevents. Every
household should be supplied with this great
remedy for coughs, colds and SO forth.

admirer of Pe-ru-na He keeps it continu-
