| More than once during the last few
years the Tissot water cclors illustrat-

| There Is a strange picture to be seen
at the Bourgeois gallery, "The Jungle"
| by penri Rousseau. The gigantic
growths Of the forest are painted not
/ in dense tangle. but In curiously
ordered pattern with weird blooms of
white. yellow and bluo accenting the
prevailing dull green. A palHd moon is
lifted above the horizon, TO look down
on rather eonvensionalized lion at
the center of the composition. At first
blush ehis animal appears TO be devour-

has puzzling, immohiIe character,
only nominally suggestive of nature,
A mild interest attaches to the pattern,
which has, however. neither beauty
nor any new, suggestive significance.

At the new Ainslie galleries, which
ire more spacious, better lighted and
n every way more attractive than the
Id ones, there are two exhibitions. One
made up of fantasies" by MIR. James
rancis Brown, from "this world of
lake-belieye." Mr.. Brown has engag-
ig ideaa, but lacks, as yet, the skill
nth which to give them true artistic
fe. The root of the matter is in him
he best of his nineteen pictures, .sThe
udge: Old Art or the New" has some
BOD painting in the curtain that fills
le background. There is a suggestion
quality here. But as a rule this
rtist is technically heavy handed,
here the nature of his fancy demands
swift fluency, lightness and grace.
In the neighboring room there are
number of recent portraits by Mr..
oward Chandler Christy, long known
q popular illustrator. In embark. ng
pom his new activities he has the
enefit of facile though not at all dis
nguished draughtsmanship He draws
heads and hands well enough. But
his style and especially in his gay
oioration, totally without quality, he
makes an ambitious canvas in oils look
ike magazine cover. The preserya-
tion of good likeness hardly atones
tor the garish, brittle character OF MS
studies.
