The American poster has utterly changed
ks standing biiu;e the printers have been
producing their work by Uthographr, It
Lai become an urtlstio creation. Wood
cuts may b a-i fine and delicate as etch
ings, but in potter Work they depended on
their COareen ett, They needed to be bold
and conspicuous, anil the printing of them
required nich A greftt uruount ot ink that
any line work that might have been done
upon them would have Clogged up and be
come a great blot. The old fashioned poster
picture was always a wood cut and was
always coarse Hnd rud:
With the advent of lithography into t.e
bttaiscsi not only artistic drawing but bt
liant color effects became jiossible. The
Americans found few artists hen- w ho were
accustomed to the work. There fart fa
mous painters who were masterly In their
use of colors, but it was not po"lble to em
ploy them in a calling that had not then
attracted wido attention and that in all
probability uerer will rank nearer than
cousinship to high art. Moreover, lithog
raphy il a science by itself, it does nut
permit tha execution of the design that is
aimed at. It requires the artlt to reach
an efi'ett indirectly by drawing a picture
as a looking glass reflects a figure, with the
l ight side of thevtone making the left side
of tho finished work. The best artists who
have mastered this t rich are the cartoon i ts
upon the leading weekly pa pen that pro
duce picture:, in colors.
The number of men who ff re colupetant
to produce the American poster of today
eras Very small When the printers took up
lithography. Kurupe, however, was a rich
treasury of clever aNftHnen and iplor
ists, who were trained to lithographic work.
To Europe the American poster printers
went tor their talent, and the cousetj ux-nee
has been that today the leading poster art
ists iu this country are nearly all Euro
peans. They arc Frenchmen, Germans and
Kussians. They have been imported in
this country as bial us they have attracted
attention in their own capitals, and the
custom of recruiting their ranks with men
of their own nationalities still goes on.
The American poster is, therefore, In one
sense a foreign prud.ict. The artlst9, the
process, the lithographic stones all lire
brought from abroad. Even some of the
paper in use on the dead walls of the coun
tr, .though made hero, is manufactured of
liber I hat is imported.
Hut the finished product of this foreign
combination is as truly American as the
enterprise and judgment that led up to it.
So American Is our po.'.ter, in fact, that to
day the most at tractive fence and wall ad
vertising done in Loudon, I'arlt, Madrid
and Berlin is printed in Cincinnati and New
York. It is not merely the ilaruum circus,
the Kiralfy spei tacle or the series of Yan
kee patent medicines that are thus exploit-.

circumstance that the same artist who iu

iuued, unattractive little placard now scuds

stunning, showy, beautiful designs that are
everywhere classified as American.
There are no secrets in the making of tho
new style poster except that the biggest,
most successful pnuters are those that em
ploy the b'jst talent, show the most enter
prise and spend the most money for the
best matetii'.ls and machinery. They give
out the figure work to the figure men, the
lettering to the best designers, the color
work to the men whose xklll as colorist
has attracted wide attention. Tbey pay
good wages. There are poster artists who

than any painter or Illustrator ou any mag

The fidelity of the likenesses to the
originals iu the theatrical bills is due to
photography. There are no portrait paint
ers in the new poster shops. The actor or
actress who is to be portrayed us in the

the highway was badly washed. Presently
his horse, u Vermont Morgan, made a leup

with him. Half a mile farther on he made

itself as the horse resumed his trot.
by this time the doctor knew he must be

hear the water roaring on the rocks below.

urged him forward, and he took a few
steps, only to move hack In his tracks.
This was twice repeated. Finally, vexed
