Revival in Mural PAINTING,

In our revival of mural painting We
have had much to learn. The larger
number Of our painters were not
otherwise equipped for the work than
by the possession Of technical ability
to draw and paint the human figure
on the scale of life or larger, and all
the other manifold conditions of exc.
cutting an acceptable decoration they
were obliged to acquire. Small won.
der is it, therefore, remarks Will II.
Low in Scribner's Magazine, that in
these few years the expressional
quality of our painters work should
have suffered In their effort to meet
these new technical conditions. Nor
has the fault been entirely that Of
the painters, for all others concerned,
the architects and building commit
tees, have shown equal Indifference,
and in none of the public buildings
thus far decorated has there been
drawn up a definite scheme Of themes
to be treated, nor any allotment made
of their various parts to different art
lists. In some cases the painters have
organized themselves into a SEM
blance Of such committee, but if a
definite project has ever been devised
it has never been carried out to the
avoidance of repetition of subject,
within the building, or, as in one
case, on the walls of the same room

Only MiIIionalres Wanted.

Unfortunately, under present condi-
tons the highest appointments in our
diplomatic service are of necessity al.
most restricted to millionaires, simply
because men of moderate means can.
not afford to accept them. 1t is a fact
well known, says Rene Bache in Lip
pincott's, that John G. New refused
the English mission few years ago,
on the ground that it would ruin him
financially, accepting instead the
place of consul general in London,
which paid him $4,000 a year, with
no incidental obligation to entertain
extensively. To show honor to Alice
Roosevelt Longworth and her husband
a few months ago, Whitelaw Reid
spent a sum equal to his salary for a
twelyemonth (s17,500) on festivities
covering two days. 1t was an excep-
tional case, of course, but even the
ordinary social demands upon an
ambassador make a frightful drain
upon his purse.

Manners Mayketh Men,
AUpvsok
IOWA

The North American Review dis
courses upon the Improvement In
American manners, declaring that
though the change is not marked, 1t
is of the gradual character that makes
for permanence. The Review says:
ut Is not true, as declared in the
form of notices upon the walls of
famous boys school in England,
that manners make the man. but
they help; and, much as we may de-
spise them as mere outer garment
and superficial soul-covering, we can
not ignore the fact that they are
still vital conditions of social inter
course, and afford much of the charm
without which existence would be
uncomfortable. Beautiful manners are
as captivating as a beautiful face or
hand or form, and, unlike these, may
be acquired. To be born and bred
well is a great blessing, but 1t is not
necessary to chide Fortune, as Shake
speare did, for not having provided
better for his life
Than public means which public manners
breed.
Sauvity and gentleness cost only a
little self-restraint and a little
thought now and then, and yet they
not only occasion much pleasure to
others, but save ourselves much Of
the tumult and ugliness and embroil-
ment of life. Lucky, indeed, is that
deservedly popular woman, American
born and English bred, who once
said to us, I am always polite be-
cause 1t Is so much trouble to be
rude After all, we cannot be very
much better than our manners, any
more than our clothes can surpass
our taste, but 1t may be that good
ness can be developed in the inner
consciousness by outer conditions.
At any rate, we know one woman
who smiles continuously because she
firmly believes that, if she persist
emily wears the expression of har-
mony, the inner mood will respond.
We are unable to perceive a very
considerable change as yet, and we
must admit frankly that we could not
endure for long an unyielding smile;
and yet we have no doubt that con.
siderate manners would in time tend
to the development of suavity and
gentleness of which some of us stilI
stand somewhat in need"

the Honoulu-San Francisco run, was
sighted at an early hour this morning
and at 8 o'clock was alongside of the

twelve cabin and two steerage pas

This is light earnings for a starter, but
it is expected that the local trade will

be assured.
The Sierra sails at 10 o'clock on next
Saturday for San Francisco and is

and that you wish to receive sugges-
tons regarding same, | have the fol-
lowing to offer:
That an organization be effected

nection with the cleaning of sidewalks,

2. Not to spit upon the sidewalks.
8. If he finds anything Objectionable

same if possible
4. In case he sees other children

enrolment.
