CHANCE FOR MODERN ARTIST
Almost Any Painter Would Make .
Hit by the Depletion of Flock
of Glyptodons.

Artists have painted every kind Of
picture except one. They have always
preferred a flock of sheep to flock of
glyptodons. We are at one with the
artists in their admiration of the lights
and shadows of westering sun on the
backs of sheep making their way home
ward along a wooded road. Nothing
perhaps, so much breathes the atmos-
phere of bucolic peace.
But let us fancy for a moment, the
effect of sunlight on the backs of a
coterie of glyptodons. These were pre-
historic animals with a bony back like
our tortoises, though they were mon
STEERS in size. In any light, they must
have made glittering company, and In
any gallery an oil painting Of them
would create a greater sensation than
all the sheep pictures collected there.
Visitors would pass up the sheep at
once for the glyptodons.
What artist now inclined to be con-
ventional will break away in his choice
