The trials of an artist are many and sore, but one_encountered recently by a young New Yorker who earns a scanty living with his pencil and brush has its ludicrous side also. Though his heart true to “art for art’s sake,” the exigen- cies of rent, clothes and food make nec an occasional resort to trick paint ing, at which he is clever: and a liquor dealer who was about to open a new and | xpensively decorated saloon gave him an | | order for “‘“‘something that wliil put the laugh on a fresh cystomer.” Desig: | size, etc., were left wholly to the artis price not to exceed §75; acceptance subject to_approval. The artist cudgeled his brains for a | time, and then, procuring a small, rough | deal ' box, about twelve inches long and | six inches wide, spread his canvas on the inside of the bottom of it and painted thereon about a half pint of broken pea- nut shells and a handful of pea- nuts. He executed the work so well that | when the box. which had no cover, was | set on a table or bar and tilted 'back ainst the wall temptation for a man fond of peanuts to reach into the box for one was almost irresistible, and the artist | tried the trick upon some of his own | | friends with success before taking It to | the liquor dealer. He asked $60 for it, and felt that the | | money was as good as in his pocket, but | to his intense disgust the man of spirits | weuld not accept it, and when pressed | for his reason would give no satisfactory anation. A friend of the artist, who 1 the confidence of the rumseller, un- took to find out.

That wo Now, if it had been some rare trop- | ical fruit, or even burned almonds, that might do. but peanuts, never; not in thi ch-toned place—they are too cheap.

COUNTRY ORDERS RECEIVE PROMPT ATTENTION. BERNARD SHAW ON CRITICISM. On one occasion when writing of honest m Bernard Shaw, the well-known London critic, re- marked that “the respect inspired by good criticism is permanent, while the irrita- tion it causes is temporary and the con- tempt it inspires is permanent.” To this rather striking phrase Mr. Shaw added the following expressions, which are well worth reprinting The cardinal guarantee for a critic integrity is simply the force of the criti- | cal instinct itself. To try to prevent me from criticizing by pointing out to me the superior pecuniary advantages of puffing | is like trying to keep a young Irving from | going on the stage by pointing out the | Superior pecuniary advantages of stock broking. | her were an actor-man- ager, and his life de pended on his getting favorable notices of his performances, I should orphan myself without an in- stant’s hesitation if he acted badly. T am by no means the willing vietim of this If my own instinct. I.am keenly susceptible to con- trary influence attery, which I swal- low greedily sufficiently good; to the need of mone to private friendship or even acquaintanceship, to the pleasure of giving pleasur nd the to congiderations for and prospects. to pain of giving pain, people’s circumstances personal likes and dislikes, to ity, pity, chivairy, pugnacit chief, laziness and cowardice and a dozen other human conditions which make the | critic vulnerable; but the critic: 1 gets the better of them all spare no ate its humanity, trying to detect and strike out of my articles any- thing that would give pain without doing any good. Those who think the things I say severe, or even malicious, should just see the things I do not say. I do my b 1o be partial, to hit out at remedial abu rather than at accidenta! shortcoming: and at strong and responsible people rat er than weak and helpless ones. And v all my efforts do not alter the result very much. So stubborn is the critic within me that with every disposition to be as good- natured and as popular an authority | the worst enemy of art could desire. T am to all intents and purposes incorruptible. ’And that is how the dramatist-critic, 1f only he is critic enough, “slates actor-manager in defiance of the interest he has in conciliating him. He cannot help himself any more than the ancient mariner could help telling his story. And the actor-manager can no more help lis- tening than the wedding guest could. In | short, the better formula would have been hat 'a man is either a critic or not a i’ that to the extent to which he is one he will criticize the managers in spite of heaven or earth, and that to the extent fo which he is not he will flatter them anyhow, to save himself trouble. —_———————— MARRIAGE CUSTOMS In Norway That Seem Strange to the Casual Visitor. Wedding presents in Norway are not of less kind that they They_cousist of such things plates and dis are with us. as pots and pans . feather bed, half a dozen sheep, a sack of potatoes, ete. Sir G. W. Dasent says that the Norwegians, in reference to mar- rlage as to other things, 'put their best foot foremost and try to make the most of things generally. A lad went out to woo a wife. Among other places he came to a farmhouse where the people very poor, but they wanted to make him well-to-do. Now the father had got a new arm to his coat. “Pray, take a seat,” he said to the ‘but there's a shocking dust in the So he went about wiping all the benches and tables ‘with his new coat- sleeve, but he kept the other behind his back. The wife had one shoe much better than the other, and she went stamping and sliding with it up against the stools and chairs, saying, “How untidy it here; everything is out of Its place Then they ‘called out to their daughter to come and put things to rights, had got a new cap. o she put her head in at the door and kept nodding and nod- ding, first to this side and then to that. “Well, for my part,’ she said, “T can’t be everywhere at once.
