SOME LUCKY FINDS
Priceless Art Treasures Dug Up
in Odd Places.
i
Recovery of Long-Lost Old Masters
Have Not Infrequently Made the
Fortune« of Their Fortunate
Discoverer*.
The recent discovery of a long-lost
Jlaphael In an old curiosity shop in a
Paris slum recalls many a story, no
less dramatic, of treasure trove In
art. says a London Tit-Bits writer.
It la not long since a stolen canvas
by Raphael of the “Holy Family“ was
found in the cottage of an Italian
peasant, where it was serving the sor­
did purpose of stopping a broken win­
dow ; a Correglo which had vanished
from the walls of the Dresden gallery
and been lost to sight for generations
was recovered from tlie recesses of
a Saxon hayloft, and priceless tujies-
trles, designed by Rnphael for Pope
Leo X„ were rescued from the hands
of a Paris Jew after he had burnt two
of the pieces In order to extract the
gold and silver contained in their
texture.
Raphael's pictures, Indeed, seem to
be peculiarly III fated. Only a few
years ago his “La Belle Jardiniere”
was picked up nt a second hand shop
tn Paris for 44 francs. His Vatican
“Adam and Eve” wns found—flung
aside in the corner of a picture deal­
er’s shop in the Rue St. Lazare, by an
artist who paid a hundred francs for
it, nnd sold it a few days later for
80,01)0, and for a modest 50 centimes a
Parisian art amateur purchased Ra­
phael's original design for his great
picture, ‘"La Dlsputa Sacramento,"
for which he would willingly have
paid 20,000 times as much.
More romantic still is the story of
the great master’s furnous picture, “The
Massacre of the Innocents,” which was
recently discovered In the cottage of
a poor widow at Como. Originally
owned by Cardinal Luigi d'Este, It had
somehow come Into the possession of
a priest, who laid paid the equivalent
of a sovereign for It, and who gave It
to the Duke Alfonso d'Este more than
three centuries ago. After the duke’s
death the canvas vanished utterly un
til It came so dramatically to light
again In the Como cottage.
Rubens' famous masterpiece, "The
Visitation," was, a few years ago, ex­
changed by a Paris curiosity dealer
for two Louis XV. nrtn chairs and a
sixteenth century coffer, nnd a for­
tunate collector discovered among a
number of canvases exhibited for
sale by a second hand dealer at Mont­
martre one of Teniers’ finest canvases,
which he wni able to purchase for 30
francs.
A portrait of Nell Gwynn by Sir
Peter Lely was discovered in singular
circumstances nt Birmingham by a
medical man. While attending n pa­
tient In n small tenement he noticed
on the wall of the living room a tat­
tered picture of tlie head and bust of
a woman. The frame was worm-eaten
with age; but, despite Its torn condi­
tion. the picture seemed a good one
and it was purchased by the doctor
for a trifle. He took It away and ulti>
mately sent It to be cleaned.
There was nothing on the canvas to
Indicate the artist's name, but the
eye« of the subject bore that peculiar
expreaslou of tender languishment,
blinded sweetness and drowsiness at­
tempted by uo other painter than
Lely.
Girl* Play Fox and Hound*.

opened for Industrial girls at Qui-

The camp Is similar to those which
the association has established In this

and good times, but who cannot afford
to pay much for It. It Is only one of

FINE LACES MADE BY SQUAWS

------ o------
New Industry on Indian Reservations
Said to Be Bringing Independence
and Happiness.
(Continued from another page)
A.« one associates lace making with
deft fingers, it Is hard to realize that
the stoical squaw has the necessary
digital equipment for this work. But
In the Indian reservations In the fur
and middle West lace making Is prov­
ing a means toward economic inde­
pendence for the Indian woman, the
New York Tribune states.
It was through a deaconess of the
Episcopal church that lace making was
Introduced to the Indian. Until then
squaws of the first Americans had not
engaged In the decorative arts except
to make beaded garments for their
braves. In 1S9O, however, the first les­
son in lace making was given to OJib-
way squaws near Duluth. Bishop
Whipple of Minnesota, one of the pio­
neer missionaries of the Episcopal
church among the redskins, enrly real­
ized that the solution of the Indian
problem lay In making tlie Indian self-
supporting.
So successful were these efforts
that today lace schools are maintained
on ten reservations. Their exquisite
examples In cutwork, needlepoint and
bobbin lace have received gold medals
at five expositions, and today the
squaw, without neglecting her house­
hold duties, can eurn from $75 to $100
a year.
To encourage just such activities
among the Indians will be one of
the purposes of the nationwide cam­
paign of the Episcopal church. But
to give economic independence to the
squaw has not been the only accom­
plishment of the introduction of lace
tanking on the Indian reservations. It
has not only taught industry, but It
hns brought about cleanliness.
A report of the Sybil Carter Indian
Lace association, named for the dea­
coness who Introduced this work,
records that this industry has trans­
formed the lives of Indian women un­
dertaking It.
They can readily be
distinguished from the others by their
neat appeurance and bright and hope­
ful faces.
A similar impression wns obtained
by a United States senator, who re­
ported that he had never seen a hap­
pier lot of women. “They not only
worked steadily," he snld, “but actu­
ally laughed and chatted together, In
strong contrast to the apathetic and
hopeless squaws whom Bishop Whipple
called upon Deaconess Carter to be­
friend.” It is planned also to revive
the old-time arts of beadwork and bas­
ketry.
The association has a prominent
shop in New York, where tlie sales of
Indian work amount to about $12,000
annually.
Choose a Needed Occupation.
Choose nn occupation In which you
are at an advantage. Necessary occu­
pations Insure steady employment.
Food, henlth, clothing, household man­
agement, thrift, teaching, child care,
and nursing offer traditional employ­
ments to women. The average wom­
an can look to these necessary occu­
pations with n fair certainty of earn­
ing an honorable and comfortable live­
lihood. If you prefer an exceptional
occupation, and are qualified for It,

Interesting developments In work for
women. When the merchant begins a
business he selects commodities to sell

worker should choose an occupation
which offers steady, useful and well-
pnld employment. There seems no rea­
son why many girls should not find
employment In their father’s business.

New Metal Produced.
A now Invention, called conducting
aluminum, which Is said to be creating
n profound impression. Ims been made
by I)r. Georges Glullni, the most fa­
mous expert In the aluminum trade,
states Consul Philip Holland, Basel,
Switzerland, In a recent report. The
new metal Is produced by putting the
ordinary aluminum through a special
patented process, by which It acquires
the same mechanical qualities and ca­
pacities ns bronze, copper and brass
without i Imaging Its specific weight. It
ts said that tin- price of tin- new metal
can be kept within very low limits, so
that, even nt the prewar prices of
other metals, it will be able, by reason
of Its smaller specific weight, to com
pete with copper anil brass very fa­
vorably. The fact that the new metal
is a conductor will make it especially
In demand in the electrical trade.

accepted as marking a distinct step
forward in motor car engineering.

"For God and country we associate
ourselves together for ihe following
purposes. To uphold and defend the
Constitution of the United States of
America: to maintain law and order;
to foster and perpetuate a 100 per
cent Americanism; to preserve the
memories and incidents of our asso­
ciation in the Great War; to incul­
cate a sense of individual obligation
to the community, State and Nation;
to combat the autocracy of both the
classes and the masses, to make right
the master of might, to promote peace
and good will on earth; to safeguard
and transmit to posterity the princi­
ples of justice, freedom, and democ­
racy; to consecrate and sanctify our
comradeship by our devotion to mu­
tual helpfulness."
In 1900, the value of the export of
