WHERE MODERN ART FAILS.

Perhaps the greatest weakness of modern art is the relative neglect of what is ordinarily called composition, or what I prefer to call by the good old word design. writes Kenyon Cox in Scribner's for September. This word, composition. means. of course, the put ting together of the picture. and seems to imply a more or less mechanical as semblage of separately existing parts. The word design, conveys the finer and truer idea of an original guiding thought. a principle of unity, out of which the parts and details If a pie ture are developed by a natural and or ganic growth. You compose a pud- ding or a black draught-you design a work of art Yet the word. compost ton. is a convenient one, and one so commonly understood that I shall use in interchangeably with the word de- sign.
 Whatever it is to be called, that the thing itself is rather out of fashion there can be no doubt. Our tendency has been to exact the other parts of the art of painting at the expense of the fundamental one of design. and to decry and belittle composition as a thing of small or no importance. In deed, if one may believe all one hears, its very existence has been denied: for a will-known and justly admired American painter has been quoted as telling his pupils that there is no such thing as composition"
 If he ever said so one is left in doubt as to just what he can have meant It is possible that he intend ed to say that there is no science of composition, and no valid rules for 1t that design is. and must be, mat ter of instinct and of unconscious ere ative action on the part of the artist. In that case what is true in his statement is equally true of drawing and color and handling. In all these things the business of the artist is to create, and leave to others the task of finding out the reasons for the form of his creations. It is possible, in any art, to formulate principles to account for what has first been done-it is impossible by the application of rules

VAN BIBBER AND HIS INN,
An Incident of the Days of the
 Boon's Lick Road.

The central route of the proposed state highway has many old historic places around which finger much of romance and reminiscence, says the Columbia, Mo, Tribune. The route from St. Louis to New Franklin is practically the old Boon's Lick road and from New Franklin to Kansas City it merges into the Santa Fe trail There are some deviations from the two ancient highways, but they are inappreciable. For instance. the old Boon's Lick did not pass through Columbia. but about seven miles north, running across the Boone county near Browns station and then ir a line west to Howard county.
 Not the least interesting features of the BOOnes Lick road were the old taverns or inns. Here was the dis tributing point for information of all kinds and here the travellers and ante bellum politicians gathered in their cross-state trips on horseback or by stage. One of the most famous of these old inns was Van Bibber's, To- cated at Mineola, Montgomery county. The proprietor. Var Bibber. was a boniface that was known the length of both the Boon's Lick road and the Santa Fe trail and his hostlery was likewise famous One of mine hosts firmest convictions was that history repeated itself and that all events. historical and otherwise, repeated themselves under exactly the same circumstances and with the same dramatis personae. One day two prosperous young men. travellers of more than ordinary intelligence, stop ped over night at Mineola and put up at the inn Van Bibber was quick to note their seeming prosperity and after supper began descanting on his favOrite topic. Why" he observed to the travellers over one of his famous brews and the pipes, ten thousand years from this very minute, we three will be sitting here in this very tavern enacting the parts we are now play ing" The next morning the travellers were up betimes, ate an early break fast, mounted their horses and were just waving a goodbye to Van Bib Der without mentioning aught of pay for their entertainment. Van Bibber reminded them of their oversight.
 Oh" laughingly responded one of the travellers. well be along here again in 10000 years and we'll pay you then"
 No. you don't" said Van Bibber. You're the two scamps who passed here 10000 years ago and rode off without paying me"

THE TWO AS ONE.

It matters not what may divide Two men who play life's checkered
 game;
 One may in his fine carriage ride, The other naught have to his name; One may be clothed in luxury, The other toll from sun to sun; The time will come when both will be, In their estate, the same as one. one from his station may look down Because of strong and wealthy ties And on his humber brother frown. Who ne'er can from his level rise; But when the final thread of life is
 spun.
 And both alike are cold and dumb, The two will be the same as one. The crown upon that monarch's head whose powers dazzle and allure. In time will worthless grow as lead When it can nought of aid secure Sc is it with all earthly things. Fen with their splendors just be-
 gun;
 The dust around them falls and clings And all alike are made as one. Since all who live, If high or low, If they be rich or they be poor; Down deep within their hearts they
 know
 On earth they cannot long endure So while we have our human breath Ere yet the present day is run, Not wait the leveling hand of death Let us begin to be as onei -Thomas F. Porter, in Boston Globe
