Only Study of Museum Pieces
Will Train Eye of Fur
niture Collector

With regard to Chippendale furni-
ture, word of caution is necessary
as long as there is such a great de-
mand for furniture of that period.
1t is as impossible for Chippendale
and his workmen to have produced
all the furniture attributed to them
as 1t is for the small factory at
Lowestoft to have made all the china
with which it is credited. Chippen-
dale's styles were most extensively
copied by his contemporaries all over
the country and by many makers
after him, and modern makers pro.
duce a great quantity of "Chipncn.
dale" every year. Only a careful ex-
animation of museum pieces will
train the eye of the collector.
The fine sense of proportion, at
once noticeable in the genuine Chip
pendale chair, is absent in the naod.
ern copy, and above all, the carving
in the latter is thin and poor. In
the old days the wastage of wood
was not a thing which the master
had in his mind. In modern fopies
the curl of the arm. or the swell at
the top of the back, shows a regard
for economy. There is a thin, flat
look about the result, which ought
not to be mistaken. Scrolls and rib
homework are often added to later
pieces made in the style OF Chippen-
dale which have enough wood in their
surfaces to bear carving away.
An ingenious device is adopted IN
cases of inlaid pieces of small
nature, such as imitation Sheraton
bookcases and knife-boxes and the
frames of mirrors. Old engravings
are procured of scrollwork, usually
from the end of some book. These
engravings are coated with a very
thin layer of vellum, which is
boiled down to a liquid, and care
fully spread over them.
After this treatment they are
ready to be glued on to the panels
to be faxed" and. when coated
over with transparent varnish,. they
present the appearance of an ivory
and ebony inlay.
The frauds practiced in satinwood
and painted pieces are many and
are exceedingly difficult to detect
Much of Sheraton's furniture was
veneered with finely selected speci-
mems OF West India satinwood.

Always in Want. on Verge
of Starvation

GALWAY, March Examine
conditions in Connemara are partly
the elimination of years of want
and privation.
Times are always hard in Con-
nemara, and year after year the
people live on the verge Of starva-
ton, with the result that when a
year comes which has an excep-
tional rainfall and little sunshine,
resulting in poor harvests and poor
chances of gathering in the peat,
the population is in no shape to
withstand additional hardships, and
feverish illness soon becomes pre-
valent.
The conditions under which the
Connemara peasant lives are ap-
pal1ing. A Connemara cottage COM
pares unfavorably even with a pig
house IN any other country. 1t
generally consists of a two-room
dwelling-one room. the kitchen, in
which meals are cooked and eaten.
and the other a bedroom, in which
the whole family sleeps.
Cases are known where four or
i've people sleep in the same bed,
while L myself inspected a cottage
IN which twelve people slept in the
same bedroom. 1t is rather a mis-
homer to call these places dwell
ings at all.
The rooms are at the most eight
feet high, while two windows-one
In each room-serve for ventilation
and light. In nine cases out Of ten
there is no glass in the framework
OF the windows, a piece of canvas
generally sufficing to keep out
the wind and rain. The doorway
serves not only as an entrance-it
Is also, an outlet for the smoke
from the peat fire..
Most of the miserable novels are
legacies left from the days of the
old type of Irish landlord. who
cared nothing for the welfare of
the peopRe who worked for them,
and who never spent a cent on i'm
provements or upkeep. Additional
Government improvements in sight
are a new land act and the pur-
chase of Improbable holdings from
