parted to guide the painter. But he
had his methods. He produced, in the
presence OF the survivors, his own al
bum or portfolio Of sample features
numbers OF noses, numbers Of chinS, of
eyes, OF muStaches, of brows, of ears.
The family selected those samples that
most closely resembled the lineaments
OF their lamented progenitor. THAT
was fathers nose precisely; that was his
chin, that his eye, that his brow" Then
the painter went to work, produced q
synthetic portrait, added q few en-
bellishments to signify riches and power
and mounted 1t on a scroll with a heavy
binding rod and silk cord, and laid It on
the family altar, and the family vowed
that 1t was a lifelike delineation of the
parent and hung it with ceremony on
the domestic walls.
This method is somewhat like that
OF the "limners" who used to go about
the United States with stock" bodies
partly painted in on their canvasses, to
be completed with the addition of fea-
lures in accordance with descriptions
given by the members of the family or
in fidelity TO some daguerreotype. 1t
may be recommended to our painters Of
today as perhaps good substitute for
the washed negative" method Of post
humous portraiture.
It matters nothing by whom these
Chinese ancestral portraits were painted

liable, but the former is really the more
interesting The indoor merchants all
have their shops in other parts OF Pei
ping and make this daily visit to
Flower street as q means of stimulating
trade, and, 1t is believed, Of getting a
line on the wares OF one another. AS
the hour of 9 approaches they begin to
wrap up their goods and getting into
rickishaws 60 back to their shops. The
outdoor dealers, however, are itinerants
and may never be seen twice at the
same stalls. The indoor men have their
fixed places in the market, each with a
little tag sign on his stall giving his
name and address in Peiping.
In the outer market the wares are
rather meager and poor. Yet sometimes
real bargains may be found there, odd
bits of jade or carnelian, pins, brooches,
necklaces of amethyst or amber or jade.
But whether i'll the street or In the
great hall where the market proper Is
held, one must be wary of limitations
and one must never pay the price FIRST
asked by the merchant.

that's that. But such policy Is alb
Solutely heretical III Peiping and eSpe-
cially in Flower street. And further
more, It is bad form to go directly to a
bargain. This Is approximately the
procedure:
Procedure Of Buying.
Purchaser Strolls along the line, stops
and looks over the yard-Square table
OH which are spread the wares. He
sees something interesting, perhaps a
jade ring. He notes its location care
fully. then passes OH foot or SO, and
return, casually picking up some
other object, looking at AZ indifferently,
laying 1t down. taking up another. per-
haps a piece OF amber rubs 1t with his
thumb to test its genuineneSS, or, II a
string OF beads. gently rubbing In his
hand close ~ the ear to try the cry
of the beads. Then, after perhaps an
other false move, he takes up the jade
ring and ScrutiniZes 1t. holds it up tC
the light, turns it around. maybe tests 1t
with moiStened fingertip. He asks the
price of the amber: "DooSochen?" The
dealer, who has been keenly watchful
of all these maneuVerS. mentions a very
high price. Purchaser shrugs his

man less than cost for piece Of goods.
OF whatever kind. For the Chinese
merchant never loses money on a trans
action. Beat him down however far and
he Will still have margin at the price
which at last he agrees to take.
Both Sides Pleased.
Well. when the transaction has
reached this stage, purchaser, thrusting
his money into his trousers pocket
and keeping his hand on 1t, so as to
have 1t quickly ready for reproduction
and also to protect it-turns and walks
away. The chances are quite even
that before he has taken three steps
he hears quick voice and feels hand
on his arm. He turns and there Is the
dealer holding out the jade. 1t is his
for 25. He brings out his money, gets
the jade. being sure that it Is the same
piece, and of he goes, happy in his bar
gain, while behind him dealer Is prob
ably smiling behind that inscrutable
mask that nature has given his race,
perfectly contented with the sale.
All of this has been in perfectly good
temper; no voices are raised. There are
no imprecations, no suggestions, other
than those Of eye and tongue clicks
and shoulder shrugs. that avarice is at
its work. Both sides smile blandly.

the jade ring and again asks "Dooso-
chem" which means simply How
much?" The dealer mentions another
outrageous price, perhaps $50, which OF
course means MEX dollars" always to
be divided In half to get the American
equivalent. Again the Shrug. the click
of the tongue, and q look of inenable
agony of spirit. Down goes the jade
ring. Up comes the amber. Another
query as to price, again the same out
raReous price. Then the jade ring
again, question, a lower price. a click
of utter pity for such incredible ava
rice, and finally a proposition by pur-
chaser-2O Mex. The dealer smiles In
scorn of such a mean spirit and shakes
his head. Purchaser puts down the
Jade and turns away, turns back, raises
the offered price to Is, meets shrug
by dealer, who acknowledges that he
may take 40. Down goes the jade once

artists Of this class took to painting in
rich rugs that did not altogether har-
monize with the color schemes of the
portraits. The best Of these old por-
traits have no carpet additions.
Whatever the wares, jewels, portraits,

ons, armor. the shops Of Peking are cal
culated to cause financial stringency on
the part Of the tourist. He gets to buy
ing and suddenly finds himself over
committed. He has sunk as in a quick
sand. The fascination Of the tiny stores
and factories, some Of them unspeak-
ably dirty in their outer quarters but
neat and attractive In their inner
