the advance made along arts difficult
highway. Measured by the work OF
contemporaries, there may be abundant
cause for this vanity. Measured by
the work Of artists Of centuries ago il
Is often learned that artists OF the pres
ent day have yet a long journey ahead
of them before they can hope to stand
IN the same class with many who closed
their labors hundreds OF years ego.
An excellent illustration OF the high
attainments reached in the art OF the
architect and sculptor, at a period ante
dating the Christian era, IS found in the
replica OF a Corinthian capital. now in
the studio OF the sculptor. Mr. Farley.

pose as a model for the reproduction Of
the same design in a reduced scale for
the use Of the stone workers in prepar-
ing the eight capitals for the columns Of
the main entrance Of the new National
Museum, the replica will become the
property OF inc NaTlCnal Museum. and
its Importance as an exhibit illustrating
