Pictures Sold Purporting to Be
by Famous Artists.
Clever Salesman DispOses of
$4,000 Worth Here.
sCOPIEs SAY EXPERTS.
.Topekans Pay From $3.50 to
$3.50 Apiece.
One Woman Becomes Suspicious
and Hears the Truth.

A smooth salesman named Levy has
been visiting wealthy Topeka people
during the past week offering for sale
water color paintings presumably by
famous artists. He succeeded in SELL
ing eight or ten pictures. at prices from
$3.50 to $3.50 each-a total clean up of
possibly $500.
1t is now claimed that the pictures
are bogus and the signatures of the
famous artists are forgeries.
Topeka artists who have examined
the pictures say that they are undoubt-
eddy painted by the same man, and
that the signatures of the famous ar
lists are all written by one person.
And it must be admitted that there is
a remarkable resemblance between the
alleged autographs of D. A. c. Artz
and PETER de Hoogh and the other
famous men who are credited with the
work.
1t is believed by the local experts
that the pictures offered are copies of
the work of these artists, such copies
can be obtained abroad for small
sums.
Mr.. Levy, the salesman, is reported
to have gone to Wichita last Satur-
day, and he is probably carrying on
a good business in his pictures there.
Levy tells this story to his proSpec-
tive customers: He says that the pic
lures which he has for sale he pur-
chased abroad from the artists whose
names are signed to them. He says
that they are mostly studies painted
by these men, and consequently were
obtained at extremely low prices. He
was able to get the pictures cheap, and
is therefore able to sell them cheap-he
says $3.50 apiece is cheap for them. The
pictures are not large, most of those
offered being only a couple of feet
square. He assures the prospective
customers that they never again will
have such a wonderful opportunity to
buy gems of art so cheap, and being
a most excellent salesman, he is able
to convince a good many people that
what he says is the truth.
Strange to say, the rich, who are not
versed in art values, hand over their
money for these gems of art with

Paris, Nov. 11.-Victorien Saroou

funeral was an expressive evidence OF

SHIRT FAC tORY HERE.
One May Be Started If the Necessary
Help Can Be Found.

The want ad in the State Journal
today which calls for one hundred
girls and women was inserted by
Secretary A. B. Poole OF the Com
mercial club and it depends on the
number of answers received, declares
the secretary, whether or not Topeka
gets another manufacturing concern.
Representatives of a large st.
Joseph shirt factory have been here
all week figuring with the CONNER
cial club on installing a branch of
their plant in this city. If the quar-
tiers can be secured at the right price
and in the right place and if plenty
of help can be found here there ap-
pears to be no doubt but that the St
Joseph men will start a shirt factory
in Topeka on a big scale. They will
employ from $50 to 200 girls and
women. They are figuring on a Kan
sas avenue property for a site. They
will install a large number of ma
chimes in the building and start in
with the intention of building up
big plant here

out calling in any authority to tell them
what they are getting. They seem to
assume that because the price is hlgh'
the art must be the real thing.
It was a Topeka woman who
finally suspected that Levy might not
be dealing in honest goods. He
offered her two pictures at $3.50 each,
and then, as a special favor, offered
to take $3.50 for the two. She took
the pictures conditionaI1y, but did not
pay for them. The pictures were sub
mitted to Topeka experts, and the ex-
perts said that they were bogus. The
pictures have been sent to Chicago FOR
positive identification.
1t is not likely that the bogus art
dealer, if he is bogus, will ever be
prosecuted, for his victims are all
such prominent folk in society and in
the wealthy circles of town that they
will much prefer to pocket their loss
rather than expose themselves to the
gaze of the public as victims of an
art shark. This is where the real
skill of the alleged dealer in fake art
tically immune from prosecution for
getting money under false pretenses.
The Levy matter calls to mind the
way in which lot of Topeka people
were stocked up with "Chesters
about a year ago. A man came here
claiming to be an artist by the name
of Chester. He had lot of his work
with him, and peddled it around
among the rich families of town. He
succeeded in selling a lot of his wares
at big prices. An investigation made
after Mr.. ''Chester" left convinced the
investigators that Chester was not an
artist at all; that he simply bought
unsigned pictures painted by other
artists, signed his own name to them
and then offered them for sale as his
own work. A Chicago art dealer who
claimed to know all about it, said
that Chester couldn't paint a barn
But there are many "swel'' homes in
Topeka which have hanging on their
walls in splendid gold frames the art
work of Chester and some of them
won't admit to this day that Chester
was not really a great artist.
All of which simply goes to prove
that just because a person is rich
he should not permit his unskilled
Judgment to part himself from his
money for alleged works of art.

The DOCTORS QUESTION
Advice Against the Use Of Harsh
PurgatiVeS and Physics.

A doctors first question when con-
suited by patient is, ARE your bow
els regular" He knows that ninety
eight per cent of illness is attended
with inactive bowels and torpid liver
This condition poisons the system
with nOxiouS gases and waste matter
which naturally accumulates and
which must be removed through the
bowels before health can be restored.
Salts. ordinary pills and cathartics
may be truly Hkened to dynamite.
Through their harsh, irritating action
they force a passage through the
bowels. causing pain and damage to
the delicate intestinal structure which
weakenS the whole system, and at best
only produces temporary relief. The
repeated use of such treatments cause
chronic irritation of the stomach and
bowels. hardens their tissues, deadens
their nerves, stiffens their muscles and
generally brings about an injurious
habit which sometimes has fatal re-
suits.

NEW TREATY WITH JAPAN.
One Is Said to Be in Process of Ne
gotiation.

New York, Nov. 1.-THE Herald
today gives prominence to dispatch
from Toxic that a report is prevalent
in the high financial circles close to
the Katsura ministry that Secretary
Root and Baron Takahira are nego-
tiating a new treaty between the Unit
ed States and Japan, the chief terms
of which are that the high contract
ing parties shall respect the integrity
and independence of the Chinese en-
pire; shall preserve the open door,
and shall agree that in default OF a
special arrangement the passage or
Iaborers of either nationality from the
territory of one to that of the other
shall be interdicted, after it has been
recognized in the treaty that the pres
eace of large numbers of laborers of
each nation within the territory of
the other is calculated to impair the
friendly relations between the two
states.
The dispatch adds that official cir
cles do not confirm the report but
that it has stimulated the stock mar

Every year intelligent people are
dressing more lightly and paying more
attention to their health. If per-

lily requirements he will give the blood
plenty of strength to warm the re-
hottest points of the body.
1t is as you see, much more CUES
ton of blood than of heavy clothing, but
the stomach and bowels nevertheless,
regulate the quality of blood. OF first
importance is the daily movement OF the
bowels. so that the waste matter may
be carried from the system and not get

hours. he or she is constipated. If con-
Stipated there is no better cure than Dr.

ExCEpTs MARK TWAIN.
Others Not Broad Minded Enough to
Understand American Literature.

South Hadley, Mass, Nov. 11.-Bliss
Perry editor of the Atlantic Monthly,
thinks that this country's literature
has attracted few men broad minded
enough to understand the full spirit
of American literature" but in this
generalization he makes an exception
of MARK Twain" Mr.. Perry gave ut
terance to this opinion in. an address
on New Literature at Mount Hol-
yoke college He said in part:
1.-The new literature isn't yet repre-
sentative of the best thinking and teef-
ing of the country. Magazines. are
more inmediateIv representative, no
doubt, than books, but they are less
truly representative than the newspa-
pers. The daily press gives a more
assuring Indication of the trend. of
contemporary affairs than do the
magazines"
