Was generally regarded by critics as
being most sensitive to the lieauty o f
rounded form as distinct from outline.
Mantegna died in Mantua In poverty,
due not to lack of appreciation, but to
his own extravagance.
Tbe works painted by Mantegna,
apart from bis frescoes and tbe tem­
pera pictures of the •Triumph o f Cae­
sar.” now banging in Hampton coart,
are not numerous. Authorities seem to
agree that not more than thirty-five
o f tbe !fo called Manteguas now ex­
tant are to be accepted as authentic.
In America there are only three un­
disputed Mantegnas. One is tbe "A d ­
oration o f the Magi,” hekntglng to tbe
John S. Johnson collection in Philadel­
phia; another is the "Madonna and
Child'' of tbe A 1,luun collection in tbe
, Metropolitan Museum o f Art, and the
third is tbe “ Madonna and Child" o f

What Ono Bank Haa to Bay About Boat
Estate Mortgages.
Tbe president of one o f the numerous
savings banks o f New York city re­
cently had occasion to resort to statis­
tics to prove bis contention that real
estate mortgage, investments made
with intelligence, knowledge o f condi­
tions and conservatism were the safest
form o f investment. His request of
clerks for figures brought forth the
fact that In the last thirty years his
bank had lent upon real estate secu­
rity the enormous sum o f fUO.UOU.OOO
and that a loss of but $33,000 in round
figures was incurred in this manipula­
tion during all these years.
Tbits tbe bank lias invested of depos­
itory funds at tbe rate o f $3,000,000
annually, receiving an average of 5 per
cent; or >130.000. Tn tnTFtWt kti «-p a y ­
ing its depositors an average o f 4 per
cent, or $130,000. leaving a balance for
tbe bank o f $30,000 annually. Against
this surplus there is tbe comparatively
Insignificant charge of $1,300 a year
loss during a period o f thirty years.
This record, significant o f tbe not
only safe but profitable business In
mortgages, is that o f one o f tbe small­
er banks in tbe savings group o f New
York city.—New York Post

As It was Impracticable to test a sam­

a period o f years, it was considered
that a limited application of hydrogen
peroxide would t»e tbe nearest chemical

paper being occasionally moistened
with a 3 per cent solution o f hydrogen

handwriting gradually became Invisi­

others. The violet Ink used for type­
writers was less readily acted on, but
