 When asked about the pet eccen- tricities of Browning, Mrs. Taylor declared that his chief eccentricity was in not being eccentric at all He was a stickler for simplicity, para ldoxical as it may seem when we at stempt to read some of his poems, According to Mrs. Taylor, Browning Hooked less like a poet than any sman she knew.
 Though Browning was not a de- sclared theosophist. Mrs. Taylor stat sed that in q personal conversation Ewith her on the subject. he admitted that theosophy was the only rational feNplanation of our being able to Understand things we have not actu- @ally experienced. He stated further tthat he could see no way of im- -lnortality with only one life. How Fever. he had added that it was only Speculation.

When asked her views on the pres fent fast age" Mrs. Taylor stated Ethat she believed We were in a very sdark ages now. as time similar to athat just preceding the fall of Rome Furthermore. 1t was her belief that Eve were so near the complete change dhat would bring about the second fcoming of Christ that it could not possibly be postponed longer than 192s.

Six other women have pledged themselves to try to make up the full price of the picture, the great artist, through his son. r. A. Brewer making a discount because the pie ture is to be hung on the walls of a school. The original price of the painting was S5.000.
 The women of the club are asking that anyone who will help them to buy the picture mail checks to Mrs. R. A. Clayton, or to Mrs. Hankins The service is actually, they feel, one in which every citizen could experi- ence a thrill at having done an act of civic benefaction.
 The Womans club does not mean to be selfish with the picture. if the money to buy it can be raised. It plans to lend it, if 1t is desired, to many schools of the district.
 Real Art at Home.
 If the picture is bought it will be the first step toward acquiring real art for our children to enjoy pub licly Since the city has no art gal lery, 1t behooyes that in some way good pictures be obtained for our little folks to see, from which to mold their ideals of beauty.
 So if you're approached for money for the Indian picture" think that a little tad wants you to help buy it for him. say the women, and please give what you feel abler'
 The names of all the contributors will be printed in The Herald.
 It is expected that some of the moneyed men and women of Bir- mipgham will give some substantial checks tosthe good cause.
