are excellent. Washington was very
kind to artists, and spent many hours
sitting to painters, who must have en-
ioyed putting in oils that. zine face with
the even brows, the large. straight nose,
and the solid, kind mouth drawn
grayely IN at the corners.:.
Beside Houdon's bust and Gilbert

picture by Edward Savage. for whom

stopped work tor three hours one very
busy day. It gives "three-quarters
view of the face, and ;shows a mild,
deep, generous eye. st. Memtn's crayon

made before Washington's death. The
lace is somewhat fuller than In most
pictures, and reveals an ample double

There arc some amusing portraits Of
Washington that are not portraits al
all. One Is Dutch painting on glass

portrait ia by Alexander Campbell
who painted 1t in Paris and never saw
Washington. At least. Washington
said he had never seen the artist

IMPORTANT NEWSPAPER CHANGE.
Henry WattersOn's Courier Journal An
nOunCes New Policy.

During three decades the Louisville
Courier-J Ournal has stood unalterably
and conspicuously before the public as
the representative of the great COM
monality of the people against both the
Robber Baron, seeking through the ac-
erection of ill-got money to steal away
the peoples liberty by stealing away
their franchise rights, and the ready
tool of the Robber Baron, the bandit
politician, masquerading as a statesman
and q patriot the better to serve the
ends of his master. In fulfilling this
high function 1t has sometimes had to
go fast and sometimes to 20 slow, some
times to cry coward, and sometimes
to cry "halt," sometimes to drive at the
root of things, and sometimes to drive
ahead; but never changing the direction
OF its movement and always true to the
underlying principle of its being, ex-
pressed by the simple demand for the
"Greatest Good to the Greatest Mum
ber."
With the advent of the New Year,
that is on the first of January, 1908, the
| Courier-Journal began campaign from
which 1t looks for com mdnding results,
