Miller Of New Jersey, who was connected with
the Erie Railroad and is best known as the
inventor Of a train coupler At his death it
was inherited by his daughter, who lived In
Brooklyn, by whom it later sold to the
father Of the present owner, Frank de Heyman
Of Brooklyn. 1t has been passed upon by lead
ing experts, such the late Wilhelm Bode.
director of the Berlin Museum Dr. Paul
Wislecenus Of Darmstadt, the great German
Shakespearean scholar, and DR.. Toch of this
country, under whose supervision it has been
restored, X-rayed, authenticated.
Van Mander was not great painter, but
the fact that he lived at the time of Shake
speare and Jonson and may have painted this
double portrait from life gives the work excep-
tonal importance. It Is of peculiar interest
that it should be shown here at this time, so
near Shakespeare's birthday and the dedication
Of the great Shakespeare Memorial Library, the
gift to the nation Of the late Mr.. Folger.

THE Harbor of MarseilleS" which is given
the place Of honor on the main long wall, well
deserves this position. Lovely in color spacious

picture to live with. "An Ancient Cypress" is
a tour de force a technical achievement a
very realistic study of a strange natural growth;
and THE Source" Spring amid moss covered
rocks, is painting in which accuracy is car
ried almost to the point of scientific fact. It
Is by his works in lighter vein and gayer mood
that this painter will however, be longest re-
membered.
The introduction to the catalogue of this ex-
hibition has been written by Leo Stein and
emphasizes the fact that those who at first
sight are attracted by these pictures may be
confidently assured of continued pleasure The
man in the street." he says, who likes pictures
should be glad TO find that there is at least one
place where he and the grabbed crusty, cruel
critic can meet and not make faces at each
other" Why this should be true of the works
Of Edward Bruce, business man turned artist
pupil of Maurice Sterne and admrer of his
the Oriental artists, man of the world and
lover Of nature, it is hard to understand, but 1t
Is true.
Mr.. Bruce believes firmly that through art
one finds way most directly to an understand
ing and love of nature, and it is strong con-
viction that as adjust ourselves to the
strangeness and the newneSs of contemporary
life We shall turn more often and more con-
stantly to nature for refreshment and recre-
alton. He believes that our public buildings
should be decorated with landscapes not al
iegorical themes. and that through the works
Of our contemporary artists we should ourselves
learn to find refreshment in the outdoor world
through which we often pass today as it
were with closed eyes.
A N excellent portrait bust of Judge John
Barton Payne, Secretary of the Interior
during the Wilson administration, now for some
years director of the American Red Cross has
been modelled by Madeline Masters Stone who
has home and studio in Georgetown.
Mrs. Stone was pupil of Paul Bartlett's in
Paris in 1911 and 1912, before which she had
studied in New York and Chicago. She has
not only, it is quite evident, real plastic sense
but also a sensitive touch. Her portrait of

4 AOSES Dykaar has just completed from
wi sittings portrait bust of Gen Pershing
Mr.. Dykaar is a Russian by birth, but received
his artistic education in Paris. He claims how
ever, that he did not find himself-in other
words, attain full mastery of his medium and
control of his gift-until he came to this coun-
try, Of which he is now an adopted citizen.
Mr.. Dykaar has, in an improvised studio in
the National Museum produced a number of
notable portrait busts, among them. one of
William H. Holmes, director of the National
Gallery of Art, distinguished both as scientist
and artist He works in a broad manner, using
what might be called a broken technique but
effectively and he rightly claims that it is not

ter, which signify in the making of portrait
His portrait of Gen Pershing is virile and
expressive. The general himself says of it:
In my opinion it is well nigh perfect, and
far and away the best I have had" High
praise, but well merited, as all will agree
4 AINERVA KENDALL WARNER, formerly
IVl of this city, now of Freeport, Me, has
lately modelled bust of the little 4-year-old
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Guy Birdsall, which
is attracting much favorable attention. Mrs
Warner studied sculpture under Mr.. Zolnay,
and some years ago held exhibition of her
portraits of children, in which she has special
lied, at Veerhoff's Gallery. She has also, lately,
modelled a portrait of the explorer, Donald
Mcmillan.
DURING the present week painting, which
- has attracted worldwide attention will be
exhibited in this city. 1t is a portrait of
Shakespeare and Ben Jonson playing chess,
painted by Karel Van Mander the Elder pre-
sumably from life. This painting was brought
to this country in 1873 purchased by Ezra

How the prosperity Man"
thought he enjoyed life

off! Drinking cocktails to let

But now, we have the Post

bravado of aggression.
In it's place has come a new

that the secret Of success and

BY the law Of averages few OF
the friends of your youth have
made an unusual success Of life.
Most of them are struggling
along, having a hard time to
make expenses.
They think Of you as one who
has forgotten them, because
they have heard that you are
successful and have money, also
unusual friends.
You might bring a lot of joy
to your old friends if you would
give evidence once in while
of remembering them and
showing your interest in them.
Perhaps you have read Of the
success OF one OF their cnlloren
or some good fortune that has
come to them in some way, and
a little word Of congratulations
from you woald be so much ap-
preciated.
If you are really up in the

a word of commendation from
you.
1t might be an incentive to do

and drawn. Something harSher
than natural grief lay behind
the strained silence which she
had maintained since they
brought him home dead. I Won
dered. Why was she taking it
so hard? 1t had never seemed
a happy marriage. There had
been no open rupture but one
felt the invisible barriers be-
tween them. She was a fine
woman. What wrong had he
done her, to make her retreat
like that? What remembered
pain dried her tears now?.
Suddenly, without any pref
ace, she began to speak.
'If I'd only known before it
was too late"
Like q Tide
A pause so long that a dark
ness mounted like a tide across
her aShy lips and burning eyes.
q Then, in a curious voice, as if
she were talking to someone I
could not see trying to explain
something in, which I had no
part-She went on.
II mean, if I-could only have
known it was really love. But
I had such different ideas
about love. All girls do. We're
taught that way--taught to be-
lieve that true love is a sort
of fairy tale.
TITS all so silly-I see it
now-these theories about hus-
bands and wives and marriage!
Maybe there was some reason
for them once, when boys
and girls didn't grow up to-
gether and didn't know each
other 50 well. But now there's
no reason for expecting what
we do.

pecting your husband to be
perfectly brave and strong and
clever under any circumstances.
Expecting he's going to take
over the whole job of making
you happy and contented.
Then, if he doesn't-why, you
decide he's the wrong man
and it isn't real love.
That's how it was with us.

been happy. He wasn't bad.

We have heard no such

Stay in the old home town,

Time was when an honest, en-

desire to work could get a job
Of some kind in almost any
place. -.
That condition does not exist

It seems to be a sort of un-

be given preference when there
are openings.

Job does not have much chance.
Maybe things are dull and
jobs are few in the home town,
but the same condition prevails
all over the country. ,
If you are the right sort, you
stand a better chance at home,
where you are known, than any
where else.
Along the great thoroughfares
there are scores and scores Of
men, young and old, seeking
rides to other sections where
they hope to get work.
But place after place visited
brings the same rules-lack Of

A Curious
Misconception

But Herirot has a curious
slant on our condition, and
its cause. Thus he admits
our serious condition and
goes on:
"They (Americans) are
suffering deception. They
thought indefinite produC.
tion, machinery and high
wages would perpetuate
prosperity. Abruptly this
policy proved bankrupt.
And in the deception which
resulted they have, as every
where, looked for those re-
sponsible. At present they
think it is France.
Now this is a curious mis-
conception. There is much
of truth in what the premier
says about the contributing
