Japane3e Artlot Gets Spirit in Work
That It May Be Given Again
to Beholder.
The safety of the nation seems to
be fairlv well taken care of. but if [
then* is one tiling more than another '
which needs a master's care, that one
thing is art. especially futurist art.
America has not quite derided about (
futurist art. We are never sure
whether a thing is good until we
know what wo are supposed to iliink
of it. The newspapers have ridiculed
the futurist art and common people
have dared laugh at it. Frankly, of
course, Americans prefer good plain
pictures that don't even require the
catalogue for identification, hut one
is inclined to think that in art as
in poetry there must be soul in olw
seurity because we cannot see iU
If it were possible we might transplant
Japanese art. The something
besides itself in a Japanese piiture
is really visible, and soul helps sense
as much as sense helps soul. Japanese
art, however, grew from the old
artnf ( liinese wrilirg. The Chinese
believed that written characters
lived, and not only spelled words,
hut e\pn- r l various sentiments in
themselves. The Japanese artist er?
iiius H living imiiy. in1 puis nis
spirit into his painting so that, it
may ho given again to lh? beholder.
If he accepts money for his paintings
they lose their ?onl. .lapanoso
art is, therefore, impossible to America.
An art that grew from onr
writing would he worse than futurist.
If our agists were not paid f<?r
their pictures we should have no artists.
Perhaps the lust we can do.
if we must get awav from our own
common sen^e plain pictures, is to
take up something along the futur- j
ist line. We may not enjoy it and it
may spoil the wall paper, hut it may
be the proper thing after all.

EVENING OF CHANGES.
Turned into a wake and afterwards
into the celebration of a birth
a wedding feast near Tralee, Country
Kerry, Ireland, had a peeuliai
outcome. While a merry party wa.in
the height of the enjoyment of thf
wedding feast of one "of the members
of the household the guests
were shocked to learn of the death ol
a two-yeAr-old child who had been
ill for some time, but not seriously.
The wedding party then resolved itself
into a wake, the traces of th<
festival being removed. While the
wake was in progress it was announced
that a birth had just take?'
place in the house, the mother being
a near relative oT the family.

The following story is told by the 1
French weekly, I/Opinion:
"As Sir Coiv?n Doyle was entering
the Carlton hotel a boy-said tc 1
him:
" 'The ehnll: dust on your clothe?
shows you have been playing billiards:
the fact of its not having
been removed shows you were tired
after a long game; your frown show?
that von lost: one of vonr hoots it

not bend your legs in walking like
billiard professionals.
"'Therefore I conclude that vov

at the Orine rooms this afternoon.
and that you lost.'
"The. novelist," continues tin
French paper, "was so pleased with
this instance of Sherlock Holmes talent
that he gave the hoy a sovereign
Thereupon the youngster pulled out
of his pocket a copy of an evening
paper giving Sir Arthur's photograph
and a full description of the
match."
HAS COFFIN FOR SALE.
A mistake of a word has caused r
Kilkenny (Ireland) philanthropist
to find himself with a coffin on hU
hands. He ordered it at the earnest
i request of the relatives of a poor old
body reported to have died in the
workhouse, to save her the indignity
of a pauper's burial. When it wa*
'aken to the workhouse, however, the
supposed corpse was found smoking
a pipe and quite convalescent. Tin
doctor, ii seems, had written "acids'
after the oid woman's name for the
guidance of (he nurse, and the nearest

of the grave, and the othei

were countermanded except th<
coffin.

"Tired? And you said you could
die dancing!"
"I could. And T would, if I
danced with von much longer."

DRAWBACK.
"I have, alas! a sunny lot."
"Why do you repine about that.?'' I
"Because most suburbanites want

news is sure to be the most absorbing
interest.
There is a great war in the Old
World, and you may read of the extinction
of the vast Turkish Empire in
Europe, just as a few years ago you
read how Spain lost her last foot of
soil in America, after having ruled the
empire of half the New World.
The World long since established a
record for impartiality, and anybody can
afford its Thrice-a-Week edition, which
comes every other day in the week, except
Sunday. It will be of particular
value to you now. The Thrice-a-Week
World also abounds in other strong
features, serial stories, humor, markets,
v?. , in im i, everytnintf that is to
be found in a first-class daily.
THE THRICE-A-WEEK* WORLD'S

per year, and this pays for 156 papers. <\
We offer this unequaled newspaper and
The Fort Mill Times together lor one
