of an artists productions. Well, some
of the finest things in the history OF
prints are quite legitimately to be dealt
with i'm this more or less technical
way. but there are reasons why such
examples as those now at the Grolier
club are to be looked at with sim
pier appreciation. They were not made
primarily for the collector. They were
made Just for men and women, just for
the dissemina ton Of ideas.
TO grasp this fact is to expel at a
stroke all that is merely esoteric and

Some Modern Paintings and

This is the last week of the Spring
Academy, and we do not hear of any
exhibition to follow it on the same
scale. There are still sales of some inn

The Southern railway securities are

maintained in face of the recent heavy
declines, not only in the speculative quar-
ter of the market but also among stand
ard investment issues. Southern Railway

the way they have resisted the decline III
the bond market Their high price last
year was 1915 and this year 1874. They
are now selling at 77H. The strength
shown by these bonds is particularly
noteworthy because of the large amount
of them held in the Southern railway
treasury to be sold from time TO time as
the roads expenditures require. TINS
means of course constant additions pros
pectively to the market supply.
The secret of the strength shown IN
the Southern railway issues is that the

its operating ratio much more dependable

Bread and Milk Bait for Simple Home.
Made Device.

Here is a Aytrap that you can make
at home at an expenditure of only a
few pennies. 1t is described and rec
commended in a bulletin issued by the
state entomologist of Minnesota. He
calls it The Minnesota Flytrap.'
Now that the open season for flies is
close at hand, this trap, which makes
wholesale slaughter and can be used
outside buildings as well as in should
prove a valuable weapon in destroying
the deadly winged pests.
The trap is very simple in cOnstruc-
ton, consisting of three parts. There
is base upon which are set two bait
pans. These must be filled with bread
and milk and changed frequently so
that the bait does not dry up, but re-
mains attractive to the flies.
Then there is a middle part which
contains a lateral passage admitting
the flies to the bait pans. This is only
half an inch wide. After the flies have
fed themselves at the pans they rise.
But the middle part grows gradually
narrower until at the top there is an

This official trap can be prepared for
only 40 cents by any commuter with
tools and a habit of using them, or If
he prefers to have the carpenter do it,
it can be made by a skillful one in
three hours.
The trap should appeal to the coun-
try or suburban man who, with his
women folk, has a horror of the flies
which gather on the kitchen and din
ing room screens. With the official
trap the cOmmuter has only to bait il
well and set it on the ground beneath
