In our times distinction is made be-
tween painting which is decorative
and painting which Is pictorial, which
Is, think, an unfortunate distinction.
and one which should not exist, for all
pictures should decorate the walls or
places on which they are placed. That
this distinction should exist is perhaps
our own fault In forgetting as we do
sometimes that a picture should be
agreeable to the eye in it's color and
masses-the good old painters never
forgot that.
1t seems to me that taste In pic
ture is something like natural good
manners in man, not depending on the
elementS-the ciotheS-of the picture,
but on the temperament 1t displays
and the measure Of its harmony with
our acknowledged standards, for a
mans picture reveals his outlook on
the world and is In that sense part
Of him. II we choose person for a

From the Burnett Jewelry Store

ON November the First the Burnett Jcwelry Com
~ pany Incorporated announced its determination
retire from the business and devote its capital other
interests.
The firm was composed of Simeon Burnett. of Seat
tie Morris Burnett of Chehalis, and l.. H. Burnett, of
Aberdeen
sale was opened in good faith and everything was
offered at cost below in order close the stock
hundred and thirtyive thousand dollars in cash
taken in.
Since the first announcement however many
friends have advised Simeon Burnett leave Seat
tie believing that Better Business Day for the whole
Northwest just about to dawn.
Acting ION this advice, Mr. Burnett bought from the
Corporation of Burnett Brothers the balance of the
stock. fixtures and good will and he proposes
tinue the Jewelry business at 900 Second
Legally and actually Burnett Bros Incorporated are
OF business in Seattle, Simeon Burnett is sole
owner of the business formerly owned by the corpora
ton.
He will still maintain his interests in the Angeles
Manufacturing enterprise in fact he has increased his
holdings in that venture but he will reside in Seattle
and conduct personally the Jewelry Business at 900
Second av
This explanation is given as due to the Public
and TO the many who bought during the sale
For fear that this should give rise any dissatis
faction, Mr.. Burnett desires TO that anything
bought during the sale may be brought back if not
entirely satisfactory, and ample adjustment will be
made.
1t is confidently expected that the Business which
has recognition by 20 years of faithful service
to the people of the state will not suffer by
of this change of plans. The policy of the store will
remain unchanged It's ideals will be just high, its
service Just courteous its stocks fine and depend
able as in days gone by. 1t will aim to recover any
ground that may be lost by selling if possible, little
closer to the cost price than formerly.
1t is confidently expected that this statement will
meet with the approval OF the general public, it has
already the congratulations of the financial and
business of Seattle.
1t is planned to further strengthen the
by admitting to partnership several OF the Oldest and
most trusted employees, notably Mr. Pardillian who has
been of great value this in the buying and
selling of precious stones and solid gold jewelry. OF
this, however, a more complete announcement be
made later.
In conclusion the Burnett Jewery Store reopens
tomorrow morning the Seattle public and to
win full measure of success, but to win only by de-
serving 1t.
