is mine of information about remote

this is the spirit of adventure, the

NHISS SARAH N. BARTLE has just
AVU finished a very charming minia-
ture of little Peggy Wood. daughter of
the late W. r. c. Wood of Baltimore,
well known both as a painter and
worker in art circles. The little girl,
who is only between three and four
years of age, is pictured in a white
muslin dress and pink hair ribbon,
seated under a tree with a rosy apple
in her lap. Her light curling hair and
blue eyes instantly attract the OBJ
server, and the earnest little face is
full OF childish simplicity and beauty.
Miss Bartle has painted her with much
sympathy and real understanding as
well as real art.
Among miniature painters Miss Bartle
takes high rank. and with excellent
reason. Her miniatures are beautifully
rendered. fresh in color. refined, inti-
mate and yet strong. One of the most
