The Prints

III themselves form an interest
ing group, representing the
work of the Eighteenth Cen
tury Venetian masters, such as
Longhi, Guardi and Canaletto.
Prices are so low that these
treasures of the past actually
cost less than furniture made
today, yet in them lie the per
sonality, the atmosphere, the
beauty and breeding, the intan-
gible something that is acquired
only by living with generations
of gentlefolk.
Concerning the purchase Of
the Car1ninati collection by the
Wanamaker collector, one of
those in Italy who was much in
terested in the fate of the treas
ures of the old Palace wrote the
following, after the Palazzo had
been denuded and its contents
had started on their long Jour
ney by land and sea:

Perhaps the most
interesting p art
Of the collection

is the painted Eighteenth Cen
tury Venetian furniture, which
numbers one hundred and sixty
five pieces. So far as any one
knows, this is the largest and
most representative collection
of its kind that can be seen
anywhere today.
Walnut furniture of the
Eighteenth Century also takes
a prominent place in the collec-
ton and few fine pieces of the
Seventeenth Century are also
to be found.
New-York tribune., 1921-02-02
The Palace itself

was purchased by an Italian
whose reputation as a connois-
seur is known in nearly every
city in Europe. An art lover
and devotee of Eighteenth Cen
fury Venice, he decided to put
back into the palace whatever
he could obtain of the original
furniture and to complete it by
adding things from other Vene-
tian Palaces--in fact, to recon-
stitute and rehabilitate the
Carminati.
1t was easy to trace and re-
purchase some of the original
Carminati furnishings, and
these were put back in their old
places. The empty spaces were
filled by discriminating addi-
tions in keeping with the spirit
and atmosphere of the original
things. When it was done the
owner had created something
that was actually a museum Of
Eighteenth Century Venice.

Nobody lived there

Two marble dogs guarded the
entrance. An old custodian
came from echoing passages to
unbolt the great doors. Yet the
whole place gave the impression
of real and human inhabitants
who had just pushed back their
chairs from the table or who
had just laid down book,
closed the spinet in the music
room and gone for giro in a
gondola.
The palace became a hobby
with its owner. Once or twice a
week he visited there, wander
ing through the salons, sat for
hours in the halls and gave him
self up to the illusion of being
transported backward two CEN
turles in time. The art critics.
writer's and antiquarians who
visited Venice were occasional
ly taken by him to see the pal
ace as a great treat, but the
public generally knew nothing
of What was behind its walls.

A chance question

opened the doors of the Car
minati Palace to the Wana-
maker Collector of Antiques
this last summer, and finally led
to the purchase Of practically
the entire contents of the pal
ace for the Wanamaker Store,
What a loss to Venice" ex-
claimed a well-known New York
collector when he heard Of the
purchase. "This was really
valuable museum"

The Business Skies of
the United States are
Steadily Frightening

Every orderly Fahrenheit
thermometer records correctly
the temperature in which it is
placed.
Stock Exchange thermometers
of the large cities register daily
and hourly the moods of excit-
able spectators, which are often
as changeable as the winds Of
ocean in January.
These simple facts are abso-
lutely accurate and should be
borne in mind when considering
other business conditions.
There is nothing radically
wrong, from the writer's out
look, with the mercantile OF
manufacturing business of the
United States.
Most Of the storekeepers have
not only unloaded their high
cost stocks, but many retail
stores, factories and workshops,
hampered with old goods out o.
fashion and out Of season, have
taken their losses and turned
unstable assets into whatever
cash they could get.
There is not only no danger
Of prices going up again, but
concessions allowed by the
United States Government, and
gradual, though slow and fair
reductions in wages with econ
omies in operating commerce
and business, will produce a
continuance in lowering selling
prices.
There is not one thing in
sight or in probability that can
legitimately cause panic.

NOTED COMPANY IF
 BELL RINGERS WILL
 APPEAR HERE FRIDAY

Perhaps the most enjoyable of the musical events scheduled for this city in the lily lecture course this year is the appearance Friday evening of the Dunbar Male Quartet and Bell Ringers, undoubtedly the best and most favorably known organization Of it's kind in existence The concert will begin at S:15 o'clock in the high school auditorium.
 The art of bell ringing was brought to the United States in the late '40s by P. T. Barnum. While touring England he heard a group of dozen bell ringers practicing upon hand bells and he conceived the idea of using a large peal of bells and playing more elabo- rate music.
 These bells were made in England as the worlds best bells always have been. but in conformity with his un-
 failing originality as an advertiser, Barnum dressed the players. both men and women, in the costumes of Swiss peasants and called the company "The Swiss Bell Ringers" For many years this company toured the United States in wagons before railroads were at all general. The art at that time was so successful that our grandfathers recall most vividly the visit of the Swiss Bell Ringers to their native towns. It SeeLiS liiat lileledlieT Iiie art lell into disuse and it was not really per 1 fected or revived in any worthy way until 1898, when Ralph Dunbar and his brothers founded the famous Dunbar
 Bell Ringers at St. Joseph, Mo. These 1 brothers went to England and had
 made under their personal supervision peal of bells which was undoubtedly
 the most complete and perfect ever cast
 l These bells were made by the same
 bellfounders who cast the great bells ot
