Sargent was on view during November and was representative of the best work of both Homer and Sargent in this medium. Homers group included some of the Houghton Farm series, the Tynemouth and Adirondack subjects, and also several from the Bahama Islands series. In the Sargent group were Venetian, Spanish, Swiss, Canadian Rocky Mountain and Florida subjects. These paintings were lent by many private collectors, notably Mrs. N. T. Pulsifer of Mountainville, New York; Mr. Martin A. Ryerson of Chicago; Mr. Desmond FitzGerald of Brookline, Massachusetts; Colonel Frank J. Hecker of Detroit, and also by public galleries, including the Smithsonian Institution of Washington (Freer collection), the Cincinnati Museum Association, the Brooklyn Museum and the Worcester Art Museum. The art museums in Cleveland, Toledo, Detroit, Minneapolis, Milwaukee, St. Louis and Rochester will give this exhibition during the season. A RT IN TOYS A Now that America bids fair to secure a large share of the worlds toymaking industry, it seems opportune to call attention from time to time to toys and toymakers that are far removed from the commercial mould, and to demonstrate instances where a true artistic spirit is at work striving that a different class of toy may arrive, with more chance of enthusing the child of to-day than the lifeless, unimaginative articles of yesteryear. In the enchanted realms of toy making as an art, Allen Eaton, family and friends, take a very high place.

Her martyrdom is represented in two ways; she is either exposed to the flames in her bath, or stabbed by the executioner. In the Illuminated Greek Menology (ninth century), perhaps the oldest existing example, she is murdered in her bath; Valerian and Tiburtius lie headless on the ground. The bath is often in the form of a great caldron, with flames beneath, and sometimes we find the superscription (Ps. lxvi. 12), Per ignem et aquam, and c. , We went through fire and through water, but Thou broughtest us out into a wealthy place. There can be no doubt that the so-called Martyrdom of St. Felicitd, engraved after Raphael by Marc Antonio, and one of his finest prints, is the Martyrdom of St. Cecilia, and that the two headless figures on the ground represent Valerian and Tiburtius. There exists a woodcut of the same composition, executed before the death of Raphael (about 1517), inscribed The Martyrdom of St. Cecilia, which seems to set the question at rest. In the later examples she is generally kneeling, and the executioner seizes her by the long hair and prepares to plunge his sword into her bosom; the organ is in the background, a violin and a book lie near her, and an angel descends fr. . .
