The Superior Sex
By FRANCES L. GARSIDE.

II YOU had remarked that doctors
charge too much.
A man isn't sure Of many things
concerning his wife, but he is always
sure Of one thing-that she couldn't
have done better
When a man makes up his mind to
be good he also. makes up his mind
that it will be his wife's fault if ne
fails at It.
A man should he ashamed Of himself
when he tells a falsehood to his wife
and she believes IT, But he isn't
ashamed. he is encouraged.
There isn't anything far wrong with
the man whose children have their
noses flattened against the window
panes half hour before he is due.

American Paintings-AlbreCht
Durer and Hans EWOrth.

Prints, old and new, remain this
week, as last, in the foreground. The
exhibitions marking the opening OF the
season are full of them. But the pict-
ure shows steadily increase in number.
The MacDowell Club is presenting now
recent paintings by Louise Pope, Mary
c. Rogers, Clara G. Perry, Elizabeth
Grandin and others. a group of Amer
can artists is exhibiting. as announced
in The Tribune last Sunday, at the
Montross gallery, and works by an
other group may be seen at the Mac
beth gallery. In the charming little
gallery which forms part of the new
establishment of Charles Scribner's
Sons there is a special exhibition Of
two recent sets of illustrations. One Of
these is composed of the paintings eX-
ecuted by n. c. Wyeth for Robert
Louis Stevenson's kidnapped" and
the other is made up of Paul Bran

and to think only Of his familiar mortal
traits.
Mr.. Fry's introduction. suggestive in
its Interpretation of Durer and not all
together unjust in its criticism, Is still
little beside the point. He is at
pains to compare DurSr with two or
three Of the great Italians, not always
to his advantage; he speaks OF the
Outrageous realism" In one of the por-
traits and calls another, the wonderful
Holzschuer. such a tiresome piece Of
brilliant delineation." The truth IS
that Mr.. Fry Is not quite happy with
Durer. At the back of his mind he is
troubled about those matters OF pure
design" and representation" which
have interested him in his adventures
among the ost-Impressionists, and he
would appear to be in II vague way dis
satisfied because DUrer was not some
one other than himself. The wise
reader will go on to the masters own
pages and take him for what he was.
He might be never SO metaphysical and
still life would appeal To him for just
its JOY and SAVIOR. He does not tell Us
so muchs Of what he thinks as of what
he does. In Venice he acts as Pirk-
heimer's agent, buying rings for him
and what not, and when he is finished
talking about a commission executed
he tells what has lately happened to
him. How | wish .ou were here ct
Venice" he writes to his friend there
are so many good fellows among the
Italians who seek my company more
and more every day" He goes on TO
pay tribute To these men Of sense,
scholarly fellows. good lutte players and
pipers, and. by the same token, con-
noiseurs of painting. But he does not
forget to roint out that there are also
among them "the most faithless, lying,
thievish rascals."
Early sixteenth century Venetian
Bohemia rises before us on the printed
page. We look over Diirers shoulder
when he foregathers with Beliini, and
we listen as though to his very voice
when he remarks to Pirkheimer that
Master -acob"-i. e., Jacopo de- Bar
bari-is not, after all, so fine painter

there being only thirtythree paintings
shown, and yet the ensemble is really
varied. Furthermore, while landscapes
prevail, the few figure pieces are inter
esting enough to give the collection its
needed balance. Mr.. Ivan G. Olinsky,
who is most conspicuous in the smaller
wing. is developing his talent with sur
prising rapidity. His Mariana"
portrait of an humble Italian type, is
capitally modelled and contains some
charming color In THE Pot Of Basil
he fails TO realize his theme. There is
nothing here to suggest the poets hero
inc; there is nothing save a conven-
tionally pretty pose; and in technique,
too, the picture is without the nervous
force which characterizes its compaE
ion Nevertheless, it is plain that Mr..
Olinsky is making fine progress. Miss
Martha Walter leaves an excellent inn

as they had thought; and this solemn
thinker, this type of religious fervor,
could be when he chose as gay as any
youth. At one moment he is saying
how he should like to travel to Bologna
to learn the secrets of the art of per-
spective which a man there is willing TO
teach him, but at another he is .oking
about his having gone TO dancing
school. and at still another he rallies
his correspondent on the latter's senti-
mental entlnglements. There is moth
ing more characteristic of the mans
natural. human temper than this pas
sage from one of the letters To che
amorous Pirkheimer:
You ought 10 be ashamed of yourself
for making yourself out so good looking
when YOU are so old Your flirting -
like a IJG shaggy dog playing with a
little kitten. II YOU were only as nice
and sleek as | am, ! might understand
IL: bun when | get 10 be BURG master
| will shame YOU. Trey ask
after me more than after you. however,
for you yourself write that both girls
and ladies ask after me--th1t Is "A sign
of my virtue! But If God brings me
home again safely, / do not know how
shall get along with you with your great
wisdom; but | am glad on account oil

will not beat them lame any more. But
II YOU are so highly respected at nome

would be a great disgrace con polrone

This is the man that Durer is in
Venice and in the Netherlands, the
humorous observer the searcher after
quaint curlos, the lover OF good dinners
and amusing company Occasionally
there is a faint breath in the text OF a
sterner emotion The news that Luther
has been taken prisoner stirs him to
something like devout expression. His
affectionate admiration for the re-
former burns through his simple words.
But mostly we are aware of the artist
on his travels. which is to say the
artist on his holiday, no matter how
much work ne may contrive 10 do.
The upshot of our contact with him in
this role is that we get iirmer grasp
upon his greatness, for through II we
come closer TO his sincerity and truth,
To that intensely human inspiration
which is at the bottom of all his works.
Some good books have been published
by Mr. Updike in this eXqu!sitely

the volume dedicated to Leonardo's
Thoughts on Art and Life" has he
published one of quite so poignant an
interest.

studies in quiet tones and the other
composed of freer, more luminous pro-
auctions. Mr.. Guy G. Virgins has all
engaging sparkle and freshness In ms
three harbor scenes. Mr.. w. j. Beau
ley lends a piquant interest to his pct
ures of New York by painting them in
a style subtly suggestive OF Europe
The crisp little sketch called The PINK
Edition: Herald Square" in its adrolt,
vivacious way makes you think for
moment Of Paris-of the city, and OF
the light. amusing touch so often cul-
tivated there. His Sunlight on ST.
Bartholomew in the same way
wakes memories of st. Marks in Ven
ice. Both pictures are painted with
ability and illustrate a step forward
in technical proficiency. THE Marble
House" by Mr.. Clifford Beal. is little
disappointing in its treatment of the
architectural motive which gives the
picture its title. The strong yellowish
whites are too hard and, strike too
sharp a note in the color scheme. The
great trees, on the other hand, are
handsomely painted particularly where
.unlight touches the heavy foliage.
Among the other landscape painters
Mr. Charles Rosen is perhaps the most
seriously arresting. The pale greens in
his Morning Mist" are lovely in tone,
and the composition as a whole is ad-
mrably decorative. Though he has
painted a somewhat dull subject in his
Winter Evening" and has failed TO
redeem it with any pictorial ingenuity.
this picture has at least the merit
which attaches to wholesome, prosaic
truth.
There is an unusually good collec-
ton of old pictures at the new gal
leries of Mr. r. j. Blakeslee. a series of
spacious, well-lighted rooms The
eighteenth century English school is
most in evidence. Romney and Law
renee are splendidly represented, and
the Hoppner that is shown. the
Countess of Gulford. is a jewel one
of the loveliest portraits by that mas
ter ever seen here. There are some in
teresting French and Spanish paint
ings. but the best room Of all is that in
which a number Of old Italian paint
ings are hung. The group includes the
tall, slender figure piece, st Mary
Magdalen," by Moretto da Brescia.
which we reproduce. 1t is a noble eX-
ample Of one of those masters Of the
Renaissance who, if they lacked the
genius Of Titan, still had a good deal
of his ample sweep and his full, rich
chord OF color. Moretto was very hui
man. Most OF his works are grand
altar pieces, painted in the right de-
votional key, but every now and then
he would produce Il subject, like the
great "St. Justina" at Vienna. in which
a religious motive was made but the
vehicle for the expression Of his de-
light in mundane form and beauty.
This secular cham Of his is revived in
the Blakeslee canvas, which is the por-
trait Of woman rather than the pict-
ure OF saint. The yellow garment
which is most conspicuous in the color
scheme is glorious in its soft glow.
There are other fine things in the ex-
hibition but this is the one work which
holds the observer.
