PARADISE FOR THE ARTIST
Devotees Of tho Brush Are Accorded
Accommodations Without Price
at Inn at Capri.

Capri. beautiful in itself as winter
resort, offers an irresistible invitation
to artists, since 1t has an inn where
anyone. by painting picture on the
wall can get free board.
To the lovely island of Capri. with
its perennial summer. its blue grotto,
and its lemon groves. came. some fifty
years ago. a ruined artist. He opened
an inn. and died rich. In his will,
leaving the inn to his heirs. he made
these conditions:
"The charge per day, two bottles of
red Capri wine included. is never to
be more than six francs.
IF any artist is too poor to pay he
shall paint a picture upon some wall
space. receiving all the accommoda-
tion accorded to those paying the high
est price.
IF any German artist shall come
to the inn he shall be accommodated.
and shall receive the amount of his
fare to Germany upon his promising
never to return to Italy"
The inn Is conducted today on these
conditions. Its walls are covered with
paintings. Now and then a German
gets his fare home.
