pictures Excellent taste is required
in this art, a true eye and a knowl-
edge of suitable combination. For ex-
ample, photographs should never he
mixed with paintings. Have cor
ner devoted to them and try to form
a design in your mind when hanging
the frames. DO not have the square,
oval and panel frames all hung in in
coherent confusion and never mix old
prints with new ones. The fine Of
feet of really good old print is often
lost by disregarding this rule. And,
speaking of rules. the first one to OBJ
serve in picture hanging Is not 90

an imaginary line which should mark
the top of the picture frame. This
skyline must take height comInen-
surate with the size of the room;
what that is must be left for the in

BUY PHILIPPINE EXHIBIT.
Seattle Citizens viii Present to Uni.
verSity of Washington.

Seattle, Nov. 13.-Money was raised
Saturday by popular subscription to
purchase the Philippine exhibit at the
Lewis and Clark exposition for the
University of Washington and instrac-
tions were telegraphed to Elmer E.
Johnston, executive commissioner for
this state, to buy the disply outright.
Mr.. Johnston notified the university
regents that he had taken An option
upon the display and asked for instruc-
tions. The regents had expended all
the money that could be devoted to the
museum and were unable to act. Hor-
ace Mcclure, the new assistant score
tary of the Chamber of Commerce, and
two mem bers of the university faculty
made personal canvass among the
business men and raised money enough
to make the purchase.
Unless the exhibit is lost it will fur
nish the basis for an Oriental depart
ment in the university museum. 1t
cost the government $40, 900 to gather
and display, but the price quoted to
Mr.. johnson is absurdly low.
