A Trip
'Round the World
For $1.50
An invitation is extended to
you, by the Editor of THE
TRAVEL MAGAZINE, to
join him in a "Fireside" Trip
'Round the World, starting in
January and extending through the year 1910.
The important sections of many countries will be cov-
ered on this "Fireside" Trip, and each section will be
described and explained by a traveler who has recently
visited it. Every description will be profusely illustrated.
This "Fireside" Trip 'Round the World will prove
very interesting to you, and it will also be highly instruc-
tive to the whole family. Your entire expense will be limited
to $1.50, which covers the twelve numbers of THE
TRAVEL MAGAZINE during the year 1910.
If you wish to see a few numbers of THE TRAVEL
MAGAZINE before accepting our Editor's invitation,
we will mail you three recent issues (which sell for 45
cents) upon receipt of 2.5 cents in coin or stamps.

the materials themselves. In brickwork
this is done by using different colors; in
stone work by using different kinds of stone
or by using some stone with much rougher
surfaces than others, so that the pattern is
introduced by the different quality of the
shadows. This treatment may be greatly
elaborated and the patterns can be in-
finitely varied, and some of the most in-
teresting of the English work, both new
and old, depends largely upon this feature.
The English influence over American
domestic architecture has been constantly
growing in power, very greatly to the ad-
vantage of American work.
There is a certain American spirit no-
ticeable in all.

A
r MUSKUM FOR NEWARK,
NEW JERSEY
The beginnings have been made for an
art museum in Newark, N. J. The New-
ark Museum Association is now an estab-
lished fact. Contributions and dues from
lil'ty elective trustees, together with certain
other small sums which promise to come in
within a short time, bring available funds
up to nearly $3,000. This is a very mod-
est working capital on which to begin, but
in addition to this the association has, in
effect, a promise from the city of a sum
sufficient to buy the Rockwell collection of
Japanese art objects—$10,000. With this
collection the association will begin the task
of establishing an art museum in Newark.
The Rockwell collection includes a large
number, more than 500, of examples of
Japanese color prints. They include
specimens from many of the greatest artists
in this line, who flourished in Japan from
about 1700 to about 1850. Of their value
in the market to-day one may judge some-
what by the fact that a collection of these
Japanese color prints, including some
2,000 examples, which was sold in London
a few months ago by an American, J. S.
Harper, who spent years in collecting them,
brought more than $40,000. Strictly
speaking, Japanese art is all industrial or
applied, For a city so exclusively indus-
trial in its character as Newark such a col-
lection has distinct and definite values.
Doubtless, this has led the trustees of the
Museum Association to choose it as a nu-
cleus for the collection that is to be devel-
oped.
Well-grounded hopes are entertained
that it will be but a nucleus to be enlarged
speedily by loans, gifts and purchases of
other art objects.
