Ono of tho larifpst dealers In

recently for which tho most cnrciui
preparations were made, jn-spue
the high cost of printing and cn
uravlng. tho firm went to the ex
pense of reproducing two dozen of
I ho principal works Dy iiiouern
maslers offered for sale. Yet when
the day come a work by no less an
artist than l.lebermonn. which was
conservatively cstlmntcd ot 20.000
gold marks, went unsold uecause
not even one-fourth of this sum
was offered. An oil painting by
Ludwlg von hoffman brought only
50 marks. Other ridiculously low
prices were: a large landscape by
l.udwlg Wlllroder7 3S0 marks: a
typical painting by Kduard von
(iebhart. 20(1 marks: landscapes by
Kugen Ilraeht, until recently ono ot
he German' favorites, so ana aw

true of other artistic things, hor

A railroad with thousands ot sta
tion agents, freight handlers, and
trainmen constantly in contact wth
its public has no assurance that ir
is rendering the kind of service that
tho management may earnestly de
sire to give. A single employee
through his thoughtlessness or
carelessness can make enemies for
tho whole'syslem. Tractions suffer
the sumo hujidleap to n smaller ex
tent. The problem of creating nnd
maintaining good will is extremely
difficult for railroads and tractions
and relatively easy for light and
power companies.

JClcclric IAiics.
:Thero Is. however, a third class
of tractions which is worthy of
special study.. I havo recently ex
amined ono of these properties
operating .passenger and freight
service between two cities forty
miles apart. . Tho figures show that
this electric lino can carry bolh
passengers and freight cheaperthan
its steam competitor. It actually
provides tho most economical
transportation between theso two
cities and no nuto bus can com
pete with It as to Bpeed. As long
ns such a condition exists its main
tenance is not only justified but it
should bo able to operate at a Bound
profit. I bellcvo 1haf this class of
