Plants as Travellers.

Plants travel to astonishing dis

by those that go down to the sea in

Hot, sharp vinegar will remove paint
spots.
Salt is excellent in removing dirt from
marble-top furniture.
The making of the bed should be the
last duty in putting room to rights.
A copper cent rubbed on the window

A thin paste made of whiting and
cold tea is splendid mixture with
which to clean mirrors.
When mating is soiled wash it in a
strong solution Of salt and warm
water and it will look like new.
To restore an elderdown quilt to its
original fluffy lightness hang it out of

Old newspapers are an excellent pro

CHAPTER TX

Arthur Mayberry, reminded of his en-
gagement with his friend, FASTENED that
he might be Ia time for the concert The
Misses Bruce thought he had never dis
played such lively spirit. He said and
did innumerable funny things.
When they arrived at the hall, Mayber-
ry made note of all the people he knew
He referred to this person and that in a
tone OF good-nature that enlivened his
listeners. He had described the entrance
of two friends, young men, aud was de-
scribing the appearance of a couple fol
lowing them when he checked himself.
Nan Bruce, following his glance, OBJ
served the beauty she had seen ON the
street that same day; there were two gen.
tlemen with her, but she could not see
their faces. One she noted was dressed
fashionably; the other seemed to be less
attentive to dress; further than that she
made no note. When she glanced at hel
companion he was very quiet.
Whereupon Nan made another pote

she could suspect what disturbed Lii

The concert was noteworthy even

Dickson's parting words echoed in May
berry's ears as he continued on his way.
"Id like to see the man who would make
Dan Atherton cringe."
Why, that was precisely what the pud.
dler was doing now. He was cringing
now; he was dominated by one man, and
that man was Jackson Grip.
The thought was disagreeable to May
berry. The sensation he experienced was
novel, to say the least. 1t was just as
though he in some way shared the humil'
iation.

and the Illustration of the poetry of a
nation. For the past 100 years painting
has been too much a hand-maiden TO
literature. and the art of the illustrator
has been made more important than
that of the creator Modern art is too
literal too true to the ignoble in COM
mon-place things, too prone to put the
subject before the idea of artistic rem
dering.
The works Of Turner. Corot. Ingres.
Whistler Sargent and Abbey were
dwelt on, and a number of copies Of
their masterpieces shown. Especially
noticeable was the copy of Whister's
My Mother" which has been hung in
the Louvre, and to which such high
tribute has been paid. Mark Fisher
was mentioned as the leader in Amer
lean artists, although no school Of
American artists exists. Many OF the
undying works of the Dutch masters

copies shown from Ingres, of wnom it

The Ladies' Literarv Club


Friday was art day at the Ladies'
Literary club. and two such excellent
papers on art were presented as the
club has seldom heard. The first paper
or the afternoon was by Mrs. i. A. Sill
oerstein, and was a very cleverly pre-
pared paper on Modern illustrators"
The writer drew a careful distinction
between The artist and the illustrator.
and showed how the one was 20 por-
tray the thought I'm his own mentality,
while that of the other was to illumin-
ATE the thought of another Many of
the modern illustrators were mentioned,
the society pictures of Gibson. Christy.
omedley, Gilbert and Wenzell; the piO-
neers of Remington, the humOr of A.
Is. Frost and the country people Of Al
Ice Barbour Stephens. A number Of the
people who have combined the talents
OF writer and artist were cited, notably
Ernest Thompson Seton and +. HOpkfn-
son smith. The art Of the cartOOnist
was handled in a characteristic style.
and the special work of Mast as a piO-
neer In this line shown In a list of the
leading cartoonists of the country. the
writer mentioned the name of Alan L.
Lovey of The Herald. and said of his
work; His drawings are characterized
by breezy originality and a certain
appearance of spOntanelty and ease as
OF some natural effect produced with no
more effort than the smile they pro-
woke Mrs. Silberstein's paper closed
with high tribute TO the work of the

The paper on Modern Painting" by
Mrs. A. O. Ewing, was one of the most
scholarly in its presentation and FIN

club. The writer divided the whole of
art into three periods, after each of
which she said had existed a period of
darkness. The first period in the wO4.d's
history was placed in Egypt, the second
In Greece and the third IN Italy Mrs.
Ewing sought 10 bring before the club
only those painters of the latter period

such a nature as TO be impossible OF
reproduction. The true aim Of present
