These fans were made of silver or silver gilt, and were some- times round in shape with little bells attached. Mention is made of such fans in the cathedral records of St, Paul's, London, Salisbury, and in many church records also. _. They are no longer used for these purposes in the western world, but are still re- taine® in some Oriental r¥iigious ceremonies Japan and China play a large part in the history and development of fans, and many of the most beaufi- ful and original designs were worked out by the skillful artisans of those countries. Folding-fans originated in Japan, but wére soon imported to Chingy .The shape in which these earliest tolding- fans were made is still used ty-day--a segment of a circular piece of paper pasted on a radiating frame-work of bamboo. Some of them were decorated in many colors, others were of plain white paper The latter were made for the carrying out ot the compli- mentary Chinese custom of request- ing a friend or a distinguished guest, at any great otcasion toswrite appro- priate rémarks on one's fan. This custom still prevails in China. In these two oriental countries, men and women of all classes and professions carry fans--even work- men using them with one hand while working with the other; and the dif- ferent designs and styles, of course, are numerous. The loveliest Chinese fans are made of very thin plates of ivory, elaborately: carved, often on both sides. The plates are fastened together with a ribbon. Sometimes Japanese fans have the outer guards of the sticks made of extremely thin, light beaten iron, inlaid with gold or other metals. Coming down to more times and countries, we Portuguese ladies of the Fourteenth Century carried fans as well as those of France and England. In France, fans were brought into very general use by Catherine de Medici, who brought with her from Italy the more elaborate tastes of that south- ern country. The ladies at the coutt of Henry VIII. of England were accustomed to hold fans in their hands, as we may see in Holbein's portraits of noble ladies. Queen Elizabeth was painted at least once with a round feather fan in her hand, and an inventory of her private possessions, taken in 1606, informs us that she owned no less than 27 fans. . other. In the Seventeenth Century, became the European centre for the manufacture of fans. Here were made the sticks, of wood or of ivory, and -the carefully prepared vellum which had been found much stronger and better to use than paper. Often the decorations were put on to the vellum in Paris, but sometimes un- painted fans were sent to Spain to be decorated Ly "Spanish ArtiSe Dutch fans of ivory were imported into Paris and there decorated by painters by a special process of color- less lac varnish, Queen Victoria | owned several fans of this kind which were exhibited at Kensington in 1870. ° Under the Stuarts, the manufae- ture of fans became well established in England, and Charles II. was peti- tioned by the fan-makers not to im- port fans from India. In response to their request, a duty was levied on Indian fans; but the fashion of im- porting fans from India and China spread and, in France, the trade in them with 'those countries surpassed that with Italy. The over-ornamentation and mag- nificence of the Eighteenth Century made itself seen even in such small things as fans, which grew more and more elaborate. The sticks were made now of mother-of-pearl or ivory, and were carved with refhark- able skill in France, England, Italy, and other countries. Taffeta silk and fine parchment were used to 'cover the sticks and occasionally eve 9 finest point lace. Sometimes fittle circles of glass were_inserted into the sticks to be looked through. The painting on the fans was from de- signs by-such famous painters of the day as Boucher, Watteau, and Lan- cret, and often it represented contem- porary political scenes and person- ages. A little later, fans were often decorated with hand-colored prints. Of course, the great expense and telaborate- decoration expended on fans decreased rapidly 'after the French Revolution, but there are to- day in Paris well-known fan-makers who carry on a large business, and artists of note, still sometimes de- sign and paint the mounts, The best modern designs are figures. In England, 'the manufacture of fans was greatly stimulated by the exhibition at the South Kensington Museum in 1870, to which réference has already been made. This mu- seum contains a large collection of Eighteenth Century fans, French, English, German, Italian, and Span- ish notably. Modern collections of fans date from the time of the French Revolution, when flue ladies gave theirs away as souvenirs or were_forced to sell then. date B. C.

It is probable that the musical life of Canada will be enriched dur ing the next few years by the arrival of musicians from the warring coun- tries who desire to take up their | abode here. The accomplished Rus- sian violinist Gregor Cherniavsky re- cently arrived from Russia, bringing with him honors and scars to show for his service on the battlefields with the Czar"s army. Three other Russian artists of the same name have recently been touring the Do- minion. It is said that Gregor | Cherniavsky intends to make his I; home in a city in one of our West- | ern Provinces. He is loath to talk of his experiences at the front. His | studies with Leopold Auer, his assist- | ant's work with that master, and other features of his musical career are more important to him than the | months spent as a soldier on the Galician front. The moment war was declared, Gregor dropped his musie rolls, laid away his beloved Amati violin, don- | ned hig uniform, his sword and side | arms, and joined his regiment. He was a lieutenant of infantry. Rushed | to the front, Lieutenant Chérniavsky commanded his men in many a bitter fight. Once his regiment captured many Austrians.

Lieutenant Cherniavsky heard this | with the atest interest and hoped that his men might capture 'the the violinist weuld not 'be injured. But a troop of Cossacks did for Kreislers' chances of being captured | and he was sent home badly injured, as has been told so often, "If you had charged the Austrian | trenches with Kreisler and his men, | would you have killed your fellow violinist?" was asked of Li¢utenant Cherniavsky.
