OF the crop, often as low a share as

Scene PAINTING.

In the past half century. and more
especially since the improvement of
the electric light, scene painting has
become very elaborate and very ex-
pensive. Instead of being kept In its
proper place as the decoration of the
drama, as beautiful accessory Of the
action. IT has often been pushed to
the front. so as to attract attention
from the play which 1t was supposed
to illuminate. Shakespeare has been
sr1othered in scenery, and the art Of
the actor has been subordinated to
the art of the scene painter.-Brander
