But beneath all this apparent idle
ness and pleasure loving, Munich is
a very busy place. It is the very heart
of young artistic Germany, and the
great revolutions that have taken
place in newspaper and journalistic
art have come direct from here, the
home Of the Jugend, the Simplicissi-
mus and other weekly papers. These
magazines have introduced impress
sionism to our English and American
papers, but even still Munchener
artist can tell story in one line, for
which an Englishman must use ten.
The Munich academy is the second
best in the world and has sent forth
such men as William Chase, Frank
Duveneck and Martin Scissor. If you

their awe of Stuck is marvellous. His
word is considered final in art, and
his appreciation is shown not only
sentimentally, but substantially as
well, for he was presented with a
beautiful home by the government
and nice pension besides. He is a
tall, dark, handsome man. His wife
is an American, and although very
fond of his wife. ne does not like to
see too much American independence
cropping out in his children. His lit
tie girl is a trHe little German frau

frem his mothers ancestors, and is
said to be no favorite with his father.
