The Truly Beautiful.

There Is, 1t has been said, no fixed
standard OF art criticism. What IL
Iauded today is discarded tomorrow,
and even connolsseurs disagree be-
wilderingly; but, CHANGING back over
the ages, It will be found that the dis
cord has been caused by technical d.
vergence and that in every land and
among all peoples the truly beautiful
has been generally recognized and cor
rectly esteemed. No one questions to-
day the beauty of the Greek temple or
the charm Of the BabylOnlan pottery.
II does not require trained eyes to rec
ognlze the merit Of an oriental flower
painting or TO find delight In one Of
Whistler's nocturnes. The fundamen-
tails In each instance are the same
rhythmical line, fair proportions and
harmonious coloFing. We have to be
led Ofttimes up the ascent Of art, and
there Ii much discussion concerning
the byways. but once on the height all
dlssenslon ends, and we no longer need
o gulde.--I1ella Mechlin in Century.

The story Is told that Dryden, finish
ing his translation Of virgil" sent II
to Jacob Tonson for publication for a
sum specified upon the manuscript
Tonson was DESTROYS Of obtaining the
book. but determined to take advan-
tage Of Dryden's need OF money. He
therefore informed the poet that he
could not pay the sum Dryden asked.
In reply Dryden sent the following
lines in description Of the publisher:
With leering look. bull faced and frechied
fair,
with two left legs. with Judas colorsd
hair
And frowzy pores that faint the ambient
air.
When this was delivered to ToRson
he asked II Dryden had said anything
more. YES" replied the bearer. he
said to tell the dog that he who wrote
these lines could write more Ike them
Tonson sent the money at once.

At the close OF a recent divorce case
q woman spectator remarked:
II knew they wouldn't pull together
very long. The crease made by her
wedding ring proved that. When she
had been married six months | saw
her take her ring of one day. The
mark It had left was so faint you could
hardly see 1t. You can always gauge
the length of a marriage by the impress
sion made by the wedding ring. In
some cases the ring, even though en-
tIrely too large, sinks away into the
finger. Such a mark as that indicates
a marriage as lasting as eternity. 9th
er women may wear a ring as tight
as the skin. yet II will leave scarcely a
streak on the flesh. In that case look
out for an early termination Of the con
tract"
The other women present said Moth
ing. but all improved the first oppOr-
tunlty to slip their rings around and
inspect the telltale mark. The faces
of some wore an expression Of salts
faction, others Of disappointment, but
nobody knew the reason therefor
