Philadelphia is to have another art as
ISOLATION. It will be known as the
American Art Society, and it's purpose is
said to be the excellent one Of encour-
aging the sale of works by American ar
lists. TIE president Is E. Taylor Snow,
who brings to the position abilities as
a saels agent which have been amply
demonstrated by the way In which he
has handled the financial end Of the
Art Clubs exhibitions.
Although one of the largest displays
ever made by the association in ques-
ton. the thirty-fifth annual exhibition of
the American Water Color Society. now
open in New York. is said to be charac-
terized by a disappointing lack of nov
elites. The Evans prize for $500 for the
best water-color in the exhibition was
given Arthur l. Keller for his Finishing
Touches composition depicting a
young girl artist attempting to paint the
portraits Of two old country people. hus-
band and wife, who are posing in uneasy
attitudes for her benefit. Mr.. Keller is
we'll known as a magazine illustrator,
and the prize-wnning picture, ALTHOUGH
clever in execution, partakes largely OF
the nature Of an Illustration in color.

George Inncss Jr.'s glfe OF 5000 to the
Artists Fund Society is only one OF many
things Of generous nature "hlch Mr..

been a liberal purchaser of paintings and
sculptures some of which it would be a
libel on his TASTE his friends declare. to
believe that he bought out Of admiration
for the works. He has helped number
of men along, and he has given various
medals and small prizes.
A curious spectacle was offered to the
frequenters of the famous auction rooms
of Christie & Manson, in London, when
Bonington's Grand Canal, Venice, came
to the hammer. III 1878 this paininS was
sold at the same rooms for $l5,o00, but
now it has been knocked down for s4cO.
The reason for this tremendous differ
ence in price is not because Bennington S

The Twelve Club has just had an ex-

clared to have been marked by an ab-

is sometimes regarded as a feminine
ideal and inseparable attribute and,
therefore. is despised by masculine artists

Of writing commonplace story, or of

She is considered by some to be not
far behind Thomas Hardy in English
letters of to-day. She is not exactly a
pessimist-thoush she draws some gloomy
pictures. She has an amusing humor
and her work as a whole shows an eN-
traordinary sympathetic understanding
of the human heart.

The author has photographed entire

whose love for an educated man leads
her also to aspire toward education and
culture. Her awakening is sudden-caused
by the advent of a, dainty city woman
and brings with 1t an uplift to the whole

One of the most interesting characters
is Joel Green. the farm hand. who Is
primed with an inexhaustible supply OF
lau@hable stories, philosophy and drv wit.
Joel usually occupies the center Of the
stage, when he arrives on the scene, but
we are never disappointed when we turn

The material for the romance was
drawn direct from life. The story is new
and as quietly charming as It's New
