When the first Duke o f Newcastle set about raising a regiment for the king in the civu war his men were known as “ Whitecoats.” The rea son o f the nickname is told in a let- teV from the duchess, which is printed in the life o f the duke: “ My lord, being resolved to give them new liveries and there not be ing red cloth enough to be had, took up so much o f white as would serve to clothe them, desiring withal their patience until he got it dyed, but they, impatient o f stay, request ed my loVd that he would be pleased to let them have it undyed as it was, promising they themselves would dye it in tbe enemies’ blood. Which request my lord granted them, and from that time they were called Whitecoats.” * Hu Didn't Ofcjuct.

They have only do stop and reflect a moment to un derstand that comparatively few «anvases were produced by the mas ters, who for the most part were ■low and careful workmen, and then let them consider how many per sons there are who claim to possess Rembrandts, Rubenses ana Van Dycks, not to mention Corots, Dau bigny« and Ziems. The experts themselves are deceived sometimes." “ What is the exact process for re producing old paintings?" the ex pert waa asked. “ When a dealer finds a purchaser in the form o f an American seek ing to gain a reputation as a patron of art he seeks some artist who is a careful student o f old paintings and a man o f genius in copying rather than in original work. The artist secures s canvas and chassis, or inner frame, o f the period de sired. The canvas is probably daubed with the work o f some un known man and is quits worthless. “ All traces of paint are removed by washing the canvas with a hard brush dipped in potash. Next a preparation of calk glue is applied, several coats of this are put on and smoothed with pumice. Finally a coat o f oil it applied, and when this is dry the canvas is ready to receii the talent o f the modern ‘old mas te r / “ It is a mistake to believe that the mellow tints of ancient pictures cannot he reproduced. A clever artist can do anything in the way of coloring. The subject chosen is usually that o f a well known work, with slight changes in composition and the poesible omission of details considered unpleasing to the mod ern eye. ’ “ When the picture is finished it is left to dry for a few months, and it remains only to rive it the cracks characteristic of old paintings, his is done bv running the thumb along the ^ack o f the canvas wher '' ever a crack Is desired. White chalk * hardens the paint and make« crack hag easy. The dealer injgnts an in teresting story o f how the picture hung on the walls o f this or that historic chateau and strikes off an old sales catalogue to p jove iti au thenticity. He hven makes engrav ings, for it lk customary to have en gravings o f the old masters. “ These, devices, with the reputa tion o f the dealer, generally suc ceed in deceiving the wealthy Amer icans. 'I have seen such pictures sold time and again, always bring ing the enormous sums which are tho market price o f genuine master pieces.
