FINE WOOD ENGRAVING.

To realize the high plane to which
Henry Wolf has brought the isolat-
ed art of wood engraving one has
only to see his engraving of Whis-
tiers portrait of Carlyle, which he
completed a few days ago. The
charm of the color and the very
sentiment of the masters brush
work are all there. Yet Mr.. Wolf
had only black and white and the
scanty technique of pure line, cross
line and stipple with which to rem
der the equivalent of great paint
er's palette. The result is a work
that vibrates with the spirit of
Whistler, an Interpretation almost
as wonderful as the original crea-
ton. In this work Mr.. Wolf has
demonstrated the value of pure line
as the line of sentiment. The wall,
the floor, the cloak, coat and face are
all in pure line. In these days of
the dead chemistry Of the half tone
process such an engraving is SER
mon on the value of individual tenn
permanent over mechanism in art

A Scotch Salmon Story.

A heavy fall of snow in Scotland
a few weeks ago caused the river
Tay to rise suddenly. One of the
big dams in the stream overfowed,
with the result that the salmon ly-
ing in the numerous pools at once
made a rush to get higher up the
stream. A workman engaged in
carting stones from the bed of the
river was astonished at the moving
mass of salmon passing. So phe-
nomenal was the shoal that the
carter, deemed it wise to stop his
charge in the middle of the ford to
allow the fish to pass. The salmon
swan like lightning through the
wheels of the cart and around the
horses legs. In the space of few
minutes several hundred passed this
particular point.

WRITES UPSIDE DOWN.

Among tho deaf who have not
learned to speak and read the lips,
the manual alphabet or the sign Ian
guage, or both, are in use. One who
addresses gathering of mutes
stands on the platform and makes
with his hands a silent speech. The
late DIR. Gallaudet of New York, for
many years rector of church for
deaf mutes, was accustomed thus to
deliver sermons to the eyes OF his
hearers, and the practice is now
common in many schools. Thus is
fulfilled in spirit the words of the
prophet, "And the ears of the deaf
shall be unstopped." One of the
best known of these preachers is the
Rev. Austin Ward Mann, general
missionary to deaf mutes. lie adds
to his many accomplishments the
curious art Of writing upside down.
When any one who does not use the
manual alphabet writes message on
his pad he replies without turning
the paper about. 1t is interesting
that the character of his handwrit-
ing does not change when he writes
upside down, a fact which leads to
speculation about the essential rela-
ton between a mans style of script
and his personality.-Youth's Com
nanion.
