tissues. Sometimes the center of the
carbuncle becomes gangrenous and
the pus escapes in that way; but in
many cases a surgical operation is the
best and quickest way to relieve the
patients suffering. - It is also neces-
sary to attend to the general health,
which is often impaired. !,
Moist heat often relieves the symp-
toms greatly. After the carbuncle
has healed or been removed surgically
the patients strength must be built up
in every way with abundant food and
suitable tonic treatment.

.HE public's chief interest in the
Winslow Homer exhibition Of
| VVater colOra now m view in

dE puOhC'S CnleI interest IN the
Winslow Homer exhibition Of
i water colors now on view in
the Brooklyn Museum will no
doubt centre upon the early works.
The belief in and acceptance Of Homer
as a great man are 30 widespread that
all who know anything Of American
art at all have been compelled long
ago to study his famous marines and
TO come TO conclusions about them.
This conclusion had always appeared
to me to be unanimous, and for once
have been glad to enroll myself with
that majority that believes in his SUI
premacy among native artists. In con-
sequence this unanimity destroys the
conversational value Of Homer as an
art topic. You know he Is great, I
know he Is great, and lest we forget
tine Metropolitan Museum is always
there with its Homer masterpieces to
reconvince the tickle. He has not
had the misfortune Of that other great
artist, Albert T.. Ryder. to have his
finest achievements purchased by col
and Canada. and who must rely for the
present at least upon the uncertain
tics OF Photographic fame.
Thinking OF all this as ! read W. II.
G.'s biographical note of the artist in
the Brooklyn catalogue. I rubbed my
eyes with. true newspaper instinct at
his apparent assertion that Nedder and
La Fargo were greater artists, scent
ing the oasis Of a picturesque row in

assertion to hold that Vedder or La
Fargo are greater artists" saw that
II was only apparently an assertion
and not a challenge at all.
wv. n. Gin fact. like the rest Of
us, no longer attempts to explain the
secret Of Homers greatness-his pic
lures do that sufficiently-sndh he con-
tents himself with the personal record.
He writes with the ease Of one who
knows his subject and is conversant
with the epoch.
Homer spent. for instance. ten
months in Paris. in 1867. but did no
work of Importance while there. He
did not enter any Paris studio. and IL
he paid any attention to the old mas

When his money was spent he came
home and went to work again. No
painter Of Importance is quoted as
his early master. M school Of de-
sign boasts OF having taught him. He

Tests made show that the rats were
not able to spot such pure tones
as those which arose from tuning
forks, for they ignored these entirely.
Similar tone deafness was manifested
toward the notes which emanated from
pipe organs. Nevertheless, noises OF
the same pitch as pure tones were
recognized, while the tones were ig-
nored.
The rats, In fine were sensitive to
noise, but not to tone. which seems
to indicate that different auditory
mechanism is present for the one or
the other. Dogs and birds seem to
have both.
Previous experiments show that both
humans and other animals use their
muscles and eyes, past experiences and
touch to discover sounds. Forty-seven
infants sixteen older children and 100
other animals were used to prove this.
Children located sounds Az early as i'm
their seventh week. Al the end of.slx
months they could locate calls and
noises perfectly.
Dogs five days old and sheep eight
months old could not do this, but hears

was incapable Of such attention to the
public.
THE only personal memory which
the writer has Of wins.ow Homer is
that Of spending an evening with
small company Of artists and bohe-
mians-perhaps half dozen persons
in the late '70s. when during the en-
tire evening Homer did not open his
lips. This incident Is characteristic
For taciturnity he was the rival OF
Gen. Grant, but he knew how to un-
bend, how to say witty and pithy
things. and how to be kind to strangers
and forlorn people. In personal cour-
tesy he was an expert. In habits Of
life and in natural temperament he
was an aristocrat Of fine fibre, but one
who preferred the society of natures
gentlemen among the poor and lowly
to any other. His Indifference to So
ciety was undoubtedly in the first in
stance a necessary economy Of time"

Of Wns.ow Homer's qualities the Gu

These are OF homely subjects, for

sketches Of the sportsman episodes
which held Homer's attention to the

with great breadth and with an en-

II is no: very likely that the young
Homer was much Of freak. and IL is
altogether unlikely that his youthful
friends prophesied in seriousness any
extraordinary future for him. Just for
that reason these safe and sane"
water co,ors Of the early part OF his
career have a value in a museum for
