Miss Browne is well known in washington,
having contributed quite regularly to the Cor
coran Gallerys biennial exhibitions and hav-
ing exhibited groups of her paintings in the
Corcoran Gallery by invitation and at Gordon
Dunthorne's. Moreover, she IS great-grand-
daughter of the late Gen. and Mrs. May
nader of this city and has numerous rela-
tives and close friends here
A native of Boston, Margaret Fitzhugh
Browne studied in the Boston Museum School
under Joseph de Camp and proved an apt
pupil. She is an indefatigable worker,
in great demand on committees of profess
Sional organizations to which she belongs,
because of her energy and competence. At
one time she art critic for the Boston
transcript. Quite lately she has published
book on Portrait Painting which has been
very well received For this book Royal
Cortissoz wrote the foreword, calling atten-
tion to the fact that in her exposition of
the art Miss Browne stands up for the rights
Of the sitter as well as for those Of the
painter Il like" he says, miss Brownies
fortnight admonition of persons contemplat-
ing the adoption of the craft to the effect
that a portrait painter first of all should
want to paint portraits, should feel that the
human individual is for him the most inter-
esting subject for a picture" And he COM
inends heartily her insistence upon the i'm
portance of arranging the composition of
seeing the portrait as whole from the
start.
Miss Brownies book was written with the
hope of making things clearer for the young
portrait painter starting upon his career, and
also that the great general public might have

approach is a great help toward a more dis
eliminating estimate of his work.
AS illustrations for this book Miss Browne
selected some Of the great portraits of the
world such as the portrait of Innocent X"
by Velasquez Bronzno's "Lucrezia Pucci."
Mrs Siddons," the inimitable portrait Of
"Bertin" by Ingres and, of our own day.
Sargent's portrait of MT and Mrs. Field"
Johansen's portrait of Robert w. de Forest"
Seyffert's portrait of "Steinway"-a well
chosen list and one worth remembering. The
only example of her own work included
in this volume is a reproduction in color
of her portrait of Rear Admiral D. w. Taylor,
U. S. NJ, successful achievement.
Miss Browne has small studio at Annis-
guam and is a member of the North Shore
Art Society and the Gloucester Society of
Artists. She is also member of the Copley
Society of Boston and the National Asso-
citation of Women Painters and SculptorS.
Her painting "The Chess Problem" Is owned
by the Art Museum of Springfield, Ill: her
portrait of King Alfonso XIII of Spain,
painted in the Royal Palace at Madrid, Is
owned by the New York Yacht Club her
portrait of Bobby Jones is in the High Mu-
scum of Art, Atlanta, Ca; the Master Marin
ers' Association owns her portrait of Capt.
Howard Blackburn of maritime fame; in the
Bureau of Standards in this city is her por-
trait of Samuel w. Stratton: the Tammany
Society of New York owns her portrait of
John H. Voorhis-to mention only few.

known artist of Texas, who some years ago
won the much-coveted prize offered by a
Texan for the best painting of Texas Wild
flowers Miss Browne will also show a por-
trait of Dean Everett w. Lord of Boston Uni
versity.
Miss Browne has just completed, in Detroit,
a portrait of Henry Ford, and she Is painting
at the present time portrait of Dr. Millikan
of California. She has come to Washington
this time to execute a number of commissions

THE exhibition of color woodblock prints by
F. Morley Fletcher in the Smithsonian
Building announced last week is exceedingly
small but excellent. Only Is or IA prints are
shown. These are all in the manner employed
by the japanese print makers They are made,
in other words, from wooden blocks cut by the
artist printed in water color. Included in this
exhibition is one print belonging to the Smith
Sonian collection, produced by Mr.. Fletcher in
collaboration with another artist in 1895 and
inspired by one of the SmithSonian's publica-
tions on japanese color woodblock printing.
A FEW years ago the National Gallery of
Art received bequest from Katherine
Waldon Myer of this city $4,000, the interest
from which was to be spent for the purchase of
works of art for the permanent collection,
preferably paintings. Three purchases have
lately been made from this fund and placed
exhibition They are all miniatures. One is by
that greatest of American miniature painters,
Edward Greene Malbone whose painting was
mostly done in Charleston and other Southern
cities, and who is represented by very fine
self-portrait in oils in the Corcoran Gallery of
by Ramage and by Robertson, both excellent
examples, Thus what will in time it is hoped,
prove a valuable collection of miniatures has
had its inception.
incidentally in this connection it may be
noted that Ruel P Tolman, head of the division
of graphic arts of the United States National
Museum and acting director of the National
Gallery of Art, is of the leading experts
in this country on early miniature painting,
frequently resorted to as an authority and
quoted by leading writer's on this subject.
African Negro has been arranged in the
foyer of the United States National Museum,
Natural History Building, Tenth street and
Constitution avenue. This exhibition includes
masks, fgurines, carved seats. paddles and
other specimens of wood-carving; decorated
gourds and baskets; figurines in groups and
ornaments of personal adornment in brass,
ivory carvings. pottery, and weapons selected
from the museums own collections. Some
of the specimens set forth were collected and
contributed by Theodore Roosevelt.
The National Museum owns one of the
finest collections of African art in existence,
the Herbert Ward collection, comprising not
only examples of craft work by African Ne
groes. but also superb works in sculpture by
Herbert Ward OF African subjects.
Since 1900, when examples of early African
sculpture were taken to Europe, contemporary
art has been profoundly influenced thereby.
That the Negro is instinctively artistic none
will doubt and that ethnoogically this work
is of profound interest all scholars will agree
But it is primitive and it represents the
reaching out of uncultured race for that
which is fine and beautiful something to be
greatly admired, but not copied; the march
Of civilization is onward.

bition in the Phillips Memorial Gallery q

the Pan-American Exposition. Buffalo, in 1901.
and gold medal in Munich in 1905. He is an
exquisite craftsman and has produced silver
point portraits of rare and beautiful quality.
Among the best known of his illustrations are
those made for "Prue and L. by George w.
Curtis, and for "Fenwicks Career" by Mrs.
Humphrey Ward. The Carnegie Institute,
Pittsburgh, owns his portrait of Martin Birn-
baum, art connoisseur and writer; the Metro
politan Museum his painting entitled The Blue
Stocking" His work is to be found also in
the permanent collections of the Toronto Mu-
scum of Art, Canada; the South Kensington
Museum, London; the Pinakothek, Munich; the
Royal Print Collection of Italy, the New York
Public Library, etc. He is one of those who
has helped to bring lthography up to the level
of the other graphic arts. Whatever he does
manifests the perception and touch of the
genuine artist.
TWENTY EIGHT etchings and dry-points by
Martin Lewis are now on view at the Public
Library. They form an interesting and i'm
portant showing
Writing in the American Magazine of Art
under the nom de plume Michael Hayden, Miss
Elizabeth Ray Lewis, now head of the art de-
partment of the Public Library, in 1880 had
the following to say: "The etchings and dry
points of Martin Lewis are vigorous representa-
tions of contemporary scenes and people by an
artist whose knowledge of life is both wide and
deep. and whose integrity prevents him f.
depicting it as either pretty or romantic. :
it may be poignantly beautiful that it is often
pathetic and sometimes humorous these things
ne makes plain to us by drawing upon his plate
with sincerity and directness the life of his own
time Referring to his etchings of New York
she called attention to the inevitable COmbina-
ton of grandeur and drabness which his plates
sensitively rendered so admirably set forth
Also she stressed the etchers love of movement
and his ability to reproduce it convincingly his
interest in lght-different kinds of light each
creating new interpretative problems very
discriminating as well as appreciative criticism
Martin Lewis began life in Australia. where
he grew up, and for a time made precarious
living. Later he went to New Zealand, then
for time he followed the sea, eventually ar
irving in America. About 1920 he had two
years of travel, good part of which was spent
in the Orient.

work comes out, despite unfavorabe conditions

through beauty you get themD
In these new days of opti-
mism the final touch to a
manicure or pedicure is the
liquid nail polish. There is
no doubt about it, liquid tinted
polish makes your fingers and
toes smarter, and surely it adds
allure!
But be careful in choosing
liquid polish and polish remover.
Too many women are running
around with brittle, cracked
nails that are unlovely and en-
barrassing. A good polish remov-
er should be a lubricant, and a
good nail polish should protect
the nail instead of harming 1t.
If you have not already used
the handy, compact set OF re-
mover and polish that is put out
by a woman who knows all there
is to know about fingernails and
toenails, then treat yourself to
one.
There is almost twice as much
remover as there is polish, so
you will not run out of remover
before your bottle of polish is

persistent in putting them back
in the nest.
The young remain in the
nest several days. When they
are ready to emerge from their
bubble cradles the male should
be removed for he is apt to
forget whose babies they are
and devour them.
Incidentally, the beta does
not fight by biting it's opponent.
They are not equipped with
teeth but have, in their place,
a sucking apparatus which is
equally as deadly.
Beauty and Grace
Despite their pugnacious ma
lures they make fascinating
aquarium pets. In addition to
their gorgeous coloring they are
exceedingly graceful. Their
chiffon tails and veillike fins
are as delicate as the finest of
silk mesh. Draped in their
floating garments they seem to
flow rather than swim.
Their beauty and grace,
however. is not their only at
traction. Their habits are un-
usual and interesting to watch.
Once a fancier has become in
terested in the bettas he finds
it difficult to hold his collec-
ton complete without one or
two of the little creatures.
If you have a good picture of
your pet, Liz Hume invites you
to send it in for use in this col
umn. No pictures returned.

some of your experiences would

Hair Trims After Childbirth
Dear Miss Shelby:
Shortly after the birth of my
last child, my hair started fall
ing out in profusion. 1 give it
the best of care, but nothing
seems to help. Would it be all
right for me to get a perma'
nent?
Sincerely. R. E. L.
Dear Mrs. r. E. l.:
1t is quite natural for your
hair to fall out after giving
birth to children. You must
brush it daily and keep on mas
saying the scalp with your fin
ger tips. You must not sham
poo your hair more frequently
than once every two weeks. Give
time for your natural hair oils
to lubricate your scalp. The Itch
ing will stop.
You should never get a per-
manent wave unless your hair
is alive with health. You might
permanently destroy it.

through beauty you get themD " used

used up-as usually happens.
The remover has a rich, oil base,
and the polish comes in eight
ultra-fashionable shades. The
polish dries extra quick and
clings to your nail for days. I'm
simply ga-ga over the three bril-
liant shades for summer wear.
In closing, just a word of adj
vice. Always have your finger
nails match your toenails in
color. Change the shade as often
as necessary-don't go around
with clashing colors. 1t is as SIM
pie as anything to take one
shade off and put another on.
And it is a great freshener.

His Three Fates
Dear Miss Fairfax:
At %, there have been three
girls in my life. One, I admire
very much. When we are to-
gether, there is none of this
"necking." She loves me, as I
love her. We are held together
by a mutual admiration and
respect.
The second girl is entirely
different. Our relations are on
a much lower plane. AS to the
third girl-once we went to-
gether, and we're in love, but
were separated by a trivial
quarrel. I find myself thinking
of her constantly.
I want to become engaged
and married, but which shall I
take? D. H.
You should wait until your
emotions are more stable. If
you married any of these girls,
very probably you'd see another
next year, who would appear
more desirable than any of
these you write about. And now
as to the job-will it justify
marriage at present?
