ARTIST COLONIES VISITED TO GET RARE CANVASES

Mrs. Johnston Brings Work of Painters Never Before Seen in Richmond.

In selecting the paintings for the twenty-flrst annual American Artists exhibition to be opened under the auspices of the Art Association next Sunday afternoon at the Art Gallery, Mrs. Melville P. Johnston, the manager of the exhibit, had in mind to present the work of American artists heretofore not seen in these exhibits, as well as paintings by old friends. She brings a xgroup of nine paintings from Philadelphia artists, "A Corner of the Garden" by Hugh Breckinridge, was in the number he showed in the Art Gallery at the San Francisco fair. The painter is quite modern in this canvas, treating the masses of color very broadly, giving the warm high lights in yellows, and the shadows in the complimentary purples. Daniel Garber, a Hooeler, born in North Manchester, sends "A Morning Vista," which was recently exhibited in the National Arts Club in New York City, with much favorable comment by the critics. Paul King, a sincere student of nature, has two landscapes, "June" and "Autumn" in fine tonal effects. Splendid Figure Painter. "The Millinery," by Albert Rosenthal has been exhibited in the San Francisco fair and the last Academy

Exhibit in New York. His position is assured as one of America's successful figure painters. Leopold Seyffert is a young man of unusual talent, and is seen at his best in the two Spanish subjects, "A Woman of Segovia" and "A Gypsy." William Yarrow is also a young man of much promise, enjoying figure subjects as in "The Reflection." His "Fruit" gives us still life in very modern treatment, with a hint of cubism. ' order to present the work of a : -minis group of men, Mrs. Johnston visited the artists' colony at New Hope, Pennsylvania, a small old-fashioned town on the Delaware river a few miles above Trenton. The painters live not in the town but in charming homes along the beautiful Delaware. The leading spirit in this colony is Birge Harrison, whose work has been shown before in Richmond exhibits. He sends "Sunset After Snow" in delicately beautiful tones. It. Sloan Bredin, Morgan Colt, Jphn Follnstiee and Charles Rosen are the younger members of this colony and paint landscapes. The Folinsbee and Rosen canvases were in the recent Academy Exhibit in New York City. W. L. Lathrop's "White Oak and Peperidge" was aslo in the Academy, and is an excellent example of the poetic landscapes of this sensitive painter. Spencer is Idealist. In Robert Spencer the New Hope colony has a tonalist and Idealist of great promise, who can see rare beauty in the commonest group of old buildings or back yards, and express it with appealing emotion on canvas. Note the quality of his "Valley Mills." A little farther up the Delaware at Centre Bridge, but still to be Classed with the New Hope colony, lives one of the greatest impressionistic realists among American painters, Edward W. Redfield. He is well represented by the "Road at Point Pleasant," a new canvas not before exhibited, of a Winter scene near his studio, and by "Village at Equihen," a French subject, which was exhibited in Mr. Redfleld's special room at the San Francisco fair. From the Artists' Colony at West Port, Conn., we have two canvases, ".Mystic Seven" by the dreamer, Law-

rence Mazzanovich, and "Bruges, Belgium." by Ossip Linde, a Russian by birth, but a good American and a brilliant colorist. The "Hoosler Group" of painters is well represented by characteristic landscapes, by T. C. Steele, William Forsyth, and J. E. Bundy. Mr. Bundy's picture was shown in last year's Academy Exhibit in New York City. Otto Stark has an interesting figure subject. Charles Sneed Williams of Louisville, Ky., exhibits a rich canvas called "The Pink Feather." By New York Artists. The other twenty-six paintings in the collection are by artists of New York City. In this group are two fine marines, showing the character of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. Frederick Waugh who for some years has ranked with the best of American sea painters gives us "South Coast, Monhegan, Maine"; and William Ritchel who recently has had many honors for his pictures of the Pacific ocean along the coast of California, sends his brilliant canvas, "The Iridescent Pool" which was shown in the Member's Exhibit of the National Arts Club. The clever and versatile painter, F. Luis Mora, whose work has often been seen here in our exhibits, generously contributes one of his Important Spanish pictures, "The Fortune Teller," on which he received a gold medal at the San Francisco Fair. This large canvas glows with rich color and is most satisfying in its sensation of rythmically balanced form in three dimensions. Bruce Crane, who is classed among out best tonalists, has a small but typical landscape, "Gray December." Colin Campbell Cooper, who spent several months paiting in the Fair at San Francisco exhibits a delightful

canvas of the beautiful "Art Temple," "June in the Mountains," and "Summer Evening," two poetic figure interpretations, are charmingly rendered

by Edward Dufner, and Charles War

ren Eaton, who paints often In Italy has a colorful pastel of "Old Cypresses, Assisi." A number of small canvases, suitable to purchase for home pictures are included from G. E. Browne, H. P. Brown, Eliot Clark, E. Lampert Cooper, Alethea Hill Piatt, Jonas Lie, and William Singer. Prize-Winner Sends Canvas. Ben Foster who had the $1,000 prize in the January exhibit at the Arts club sends one of his visions of the beauty of the Litchfield Hills in Conneticut, where he lives. His picture is entitled "Ripe Autumn." "Peconlc Bay," a beautiful canvas shown in the last Academy exhibit is by W. GrandvilleSmith, whose work has not been seen before in exhibits here. Neither has that of Walter Griffin, now home, on account of the war from a long stay in France. He is one of the great Impressionists that use the dot and dash method, and shows "Church at Boigneville." Louis Ritman of the American colony in Paris is represented by a "Portrait" quite modern in color and lighting. The old fashioned "Portrait, Anno, 1867" is painted by Ernest L, Ipsen of his Mother, done lovingly in miniature-like quality. "Allegro" by Betram Hartman, is decorative and musical as the title suggests, in design and color, and shows the modern trend toward the idyllic in subject. The largest and most expensive painting in the exhibit is the splendid canvas by Gardner Symons, 'called "Youth," on which he received the Saltus Gold Medal. This painting is a fine example of impressionistic realism in which the synthetic, stark truth of nature reaches the height of ideali-

Soldiers Want Balm for Lonely Hearts

EATON, O., Sept. 12. From far-off Hawaii comes an unique request from M. G. King, L. J. Weston, H. L. McClintock and W. S. Rennett, members of Company D, First U. S. Infantry, stationed at Schofield barracks. The communication follows: "While the government has done much and is still doing all in its power for the welfare and comfort of the men in the service, there is something the Y. M. C. A.'s., libraries, etc., cannot do supply the balm for loneliness in the hearts of the young men who have sacrificed their loving homes and friends in order to serve their country in the present crisis. If there are any young ladies who would like to help cheer some of these lonely soldiers, we would be pleased to hear from them, and will put them In touch with others who would be glad to receive letters and tokens from the good old U. S. A."

He gives a literal transcription of the appearance of slender young trees against the glow of an evening sky, with pink reflections and purple shadows across the snow, so vividly that the painting arouses in the beholder the same emotions of beauty, reverence and awe that nature itself excites in the human soul.

Don't Need A Girl to Do Housework Now

This Woman Can do Her Own Work Since She Gave Tanlac Trial.

"A few weeks ago I was so weak and run down that I had to have a girl do my housework. Today I'm feeling fine again and I'm doing all my own work. I give Tanlac all the credit for the change," said Mrs. Fletcher Guge, No. 1 Park Row, Kokomo, Indiana. "I was very nervous before I took Tanlac," Mrs. Guge continued. "The least noise bothered me and I didn't sleep very good. "My stomach was in bad condition, too. My appetite was so poor that I ate very little. "Well, I read about Tanlac and heard others talk so much about it that I tried it.

"It certainly fixed my stomach up in fine shape. My appetite haB come back now. "My nerves seem to be in much better condition, too, and I really feel a lot better in every way. I'm doing all my own house work again now." If you are not feeling right, get Tanlac, and get it today. Relay in health matters is dangerous. It will help you as it has helped thousands of weakened and run down men and women. You can get Tanlac at any of Clem Thistlethwaite's drug stores and all either good druggists. Adv.
