pect until yesterday morning that the

ton was settled.
Judge Foster said that in considera-

him on such a charge he would impose
q fine Of only $40. He added q warning,
however, that a second offence would be

And worthwhile
Collections

81 needs must know more
about couple like that, and my
inquiries brought me a most
charming story of how love of
the beautiful, a passing interest
in some Oriental goods in this
shop a couple of years ago, and
a fortunate meeting of the head
of the store, had famed into a
steady fame this passing inter-
est, had developed this love Of
the beautiful into the keenest
appreciation of Oriental art,
and had started two young col
lectors toward a worthwhile col
lection. For everything that
they buy is worth while. A
carving in ivory or bit of jade
was the way it started. And
before they bought they were
advised to go to the Museum, to
go to other stores, too, see
everything, to compare and
then decide upon the best. They
followed this course, and al
ways come back to buy.
Zone stops at this stock
to recall the mastery de-
scriptions of Oriental art
by that exotic and art I'M
derstanding writer, Laf-
cadio Hearn,
"The hangings of yellow cut
velvet - bright yellow, the
sacred and cosmognic color of
Oriental belief, like some that
so pleased this genius, are ex-
quisitely embroidered with at
tractive compositions, figures,
landscapes; fight of gulls
sweeping through the golden
light of a summer morning; a
long line of cranes against a
vermilion sky; a swallow twirl-
ing It's kite shape against the
disks of the sun; the heavy,
eccentric flight Of bats under
the moon; the fairy lowering of
moths or splendid butterflies.
Not mere copies Of nature, but
exquisite idealization of it."
"A temple hanging at
$4,000, of cut velvet in
darkest blue, 'embroi-
dered with billoWings and
dragonings' of red, almost
seem to have been the
very one which was de-
scribed by this master
word painter.
"There is such a multi
tude of wonderful things
here that to mention the
one is a matter of regret
for the many that must be
passed over and no credit
recorded for it.
