At this particular time, when
the people of Christendom pray espe
cially for the Turk, the infidel and
even for the Jew, the descendant of
those who slew the Messiah. it is well
that such q work as THE MyStics OF
Islam should be read and studied.
The author of the work is DR.. Reyn-
old A. Nicholson, and it is published
by Bell & Sons. The book, as a we'll
known critic has said, reveals a
phase of religious thought which Is
well worth the attention of Chris
tians.
"All thinking religious Moslems are
mystics," said Professor w. B. Mac
Donald in his illuminating ASPECTS
OF Islam" and, he added, all, too,
are pantheists, but some do not know
it.
Much the same thing may be said
of many Christians, so-called, as II
admitted by broadminded clerics
when, in an inadvertent moment,
they give the rein to their really hon.
est opinions. This is particularly true
of thinking Christians in this day
when the essence of mysticism is in
the very air.
But Christian mystics may be as
tonished to find their profoundest
emotions and most secret aspirations
expressed by Moslems of the middle
ages.
Mysticism in All Religion.
Yet there cannot be said to be any
thing astonishing in this, since, as
has been said. mysticism gives the
spiritual content of what is common
to all theistic religions, and "all
mystical experiences ultimately meet
in a single point" however apparent
ly various the ways by which it is
approached.
1.-THE paths by which we seek God"
says the Sufls, ARE In number as
the souls of men" Therefore, Sufism,
or Mohammedan mysticism, is no
sect, and does not lend itself to sec
tarianism: it Is rare to find a Stuff
among the Shia'h-the strict follower
of the faith of the Prophet.
Sufism processes no dogmatic reli-
glon, but teaches only the path to God
through the stages of repentance, alb
stinence, remuneration, poverty, pa
thence, trust and satisfaction, from
the purgatlve to the illuminative and
finally, the contemplative life, until
the soul at last passes away" and
unites with reality. The whole of
Sufism. however-and in this it differs
that when the individual self is lost
the universal self Is found; or. In re-
ligious language, that ecstacy affords
the only means by which the soul
can directly communicate and become
united with God.
ITS Cardinal Principle.
"Asceticism, publication, love gno-
sis. saintship. all the leading ideas of
Sufism, are deVeloped from this COR
dinal principle
But unlike Nirvana, the cessation
of individuality, the passing away"
of the Sufi implies continuance Of
real existence. HE who dies to self
lives in God" but this immortality
seems TO be quite impersonal-self-
humiliation in dedication.
The Suf1 doctrine that 1.-THE King
dom of God is within you" and the
absolute supremacy of the infallible
conscience, logically imply autino-

Pictorial Composition and the Crit
ical Judgment of Pictures" by Henry
r. Poore, A. N. A, the publication
OF which has been taken over by the
Putnams, is a handbook which may
be used by the general reader with
as great advantage as by the student
of art 1t is accepted as the standard
work on pictorial composition not only
in this country but in England.
Concentrations have come from art
collectors, artists, art photographers
and laymen. Regarding 1t 70. b.
Greenshields says: 81 have read and
re-read with great pleasure Mr.
Poores book on pictorial Compost
ton and the Critical Judgment of Pic
lures"
~ have learned much from it, es-
pecially concerning composition, but
indeed the whole work is equally good
in all it's parts. 1t is stimulating,
thoughtful and instructive, and full of
the best ideas both about painting
pictures and of properly approaching
them when painted"
To this Frank " Chambers adds:
There are more practical and thor
ough examples in this book than we
thought possible for one man to ex-
plain in a single volume"
With this verdict OF the editor of
the dictum of the well-known pho
tographer Prize Macdonald, who as
serts that "Mr. Poore's book has a
more direct application to the work
Of a photographer than any other L
have ever read"
OF it Irving r. Wiles, N. A, the
well-known figure painter, has said:
ut is not only charmingly written
but remarkably able and instructive.
I have read nothing on the subject
that compares with it in clear expla-
nations of qualities in painting that
are always most mysterious to the
layman and frequently so to the pro-
fessional artist"
DR.. David Hill. formerly ambassador
to Germany, states that my friend
had a copy of pictorial Composition"
with him for steamer reading and l
became so much interested in it that
he kindly sent to America for another

Blind Lead the Blind
in Field of Art

A recent book published by Smith,
Elder & Co., of London, Is entitled
Art and Common Sense" 1t is
written by Royal Cortissoz, art edi-
tor of the New York Tribune. The
book is a republication Of essays
written by the author as a journalist
and art critic.
The title of the first essay, which
gives the title to the book, enables
one very fairly to Judge what the
authors opinion is likely to be on
any subject; he is a conservative of
the date of about 1S90-1900, and when
we find him walking on the outskirts
of Paris with the late Philip Gilbert
Hammerton we can trace his descent
from surely one of the greatest mas
ters of the obvious that ever lived.
This gives the clue to the value of
the judgments of Mr.. Cortissoz. Like
MANY another so-called art critic his
judgments, delivered ex-cathedra,
are, many of them, contradicted al
most before they have been dissent
mated.
THE critic is asked at once for his
verdict on any particular art produce
ton and when it Is given it is of no
consequence. 1t doesn't matter. If
it is Just no one cares. What the
public wants, when 1t cares at all for
art, are the reasons for the verdict
of the critic. If these supply a new
idea or argument, the critic has con-
tributed something to real art litera-
ture; but this cannot be said of Mr.
CntissoZ
AS a London review says, I'm his
essay on the Magic of Mere Paint is
the catching phrase coined by the
fancy of a journalist We seem to
find a vein of genuine, critical relish
for paint of highly developed realis-
tic suggestion and firm body.
But" aids the review, "he
avoids getting to such close quarters
in a technical discussion as might
either ALLEVIATE the general reader or
instruct him in the technical merits
of art"
This avoidance of technical COM
--well-expressed as coming
to too close quarters''-is the indica-
ton of the slender thread of knowl-
edge which sustains the title of art
critic of the ordinary newspaper en-
ploye in this field. In his case it is
distinctly case of the blind leading
the blind.
