A RUINED INDUSTRY,
By Frederic ]. Haskin.

An INDUSTRIOUS international HotSdH
has worked for years upon the artless
artistry of Americans visiting Europe
with money to spend. They have rec
ognized the instinct for refinement as
legitimate one to prey upon, and. as
manufacturers and collectors OF things
artistic and antique, or in the charac-
ter Of go-betweens, they have reaped
rich and lightly won harvests.
On second thought. however. it seems
more fair to mention that it has been
by no means the citizen of the United
States alone who has fallen for the po-
lite persuasion of these vendors of
things Of taste, but, under the same
manipulation. spenders from South
American countries and from Australia
have become collectors of unique, in
spirational and cultural trifles.
Temporarily, at least, this market, or,
better. this business, has been shat
tered by the war. The customers have
all been frightened away, and it must
now be hard times" with the thou

lation will not help them. for they had

the citizen Of whatsoever extra-Euro-

Their leaders enjoyed lives of luxury,
and they collected the living which the
world owed them with hands incased
in spotless white gloves and scrutinized
the checks or banknotes which came
their way through languid monocles

There were any number of factories
that worked six days in each week
turning out supplies of antique furni-
ture. of old porcelain. of pewter, brass
and terra Gotta ware. There was a
legion Of painters, Of designers, of all
manner Of arts skilled technicians,
who turned out the Just as good"
product. which was to find its way out
of Europe under false oertifcation,
And. now and then, the tricks were
turned SO neatly as even to take in
the recognized great among the au-
thorities upon art works. 1t is no won
der, then, that the untutored child of
wealth fattened the tribe of vendors in
his anxiety to learn to approve of the
ideal.

times all that are needed to supply

for the time being. Pseudo-European
art is no longer changing hands.

their promise, or who have found eff

in Europe, drifted naturally into the
work of making themselves attentive
and useful to visiting compatriots, part
of which work brought in commissions

Others of these adventures are birds
of continuous passage. They keep their
little shops in this country, or hold
semi-private collections here, or sell
their wares by canvass or advertise

end Of every voyage. and peddle their
stock among these friends. Often these
collectors are able to dispose OF much
OF their stock among acquaintances
made on shipboard. However, these
are the small-fry adventures. The
masters spent their time and did their
business in the gay capitals, where we
required more of fnesse and less of
