A book of this kind is valuable for refor- Fence, and its value for this purpose is obhanced by the moderation of the author's

Thas the final outcome of Ruskin's | attack on Whistler has not been injury to the artist but rather to the reputation of the critic. It is Raskin, not Whistior, who has lost ground. So, too, drawing an illustration from another art, Hauslick's cator was a failure judged by the offact of his acti-Wagnerian diatribes. Possibly the day will come when.
