Th canvas represents a croup of men fathered at night about a glowing camp fire, and above them tower the great hele-ht of "The Roof of the World." The work la seven feet tall and five in width.

During alterations in bis studio, at 13 West Fifty-fifth Street, the sculptor had the picture carried Into the hall and placed with Us face against the wall. He was away on Saturday and Sunday, and on hla return yesterday morn-Ing he found 4hat hla cherished picture had been cut In several places with a sharp knife, and most of the slashes, five to six Inches In length, crossed each other In a way to snggsst th outline of the German military decoration. There were two of the crosses and one lone slash a foot In length. Thia ia th work of some fanatic," aald the sculptor yesterday. or of some Irresponsible and vicious person.

I have no enemies as far as I know, and I cannot account for this act of vandal-Ism. I had Intended to give the picture in the Brooklyn Institute of Arts and Sciences, where there are already three paintings by. the same artist. The work la ruined, for no amount of patching and relinlnr can fully restore it. I valued It at $2,500, It waa essen tially a museum picture.

It waa originally a part of a Russian exhibit which waa brought to this country twelve years ago. The wa painted, I should judge, about LatfO." The picture, unlike the majority of tha worka of the Russian painter, represents a peaceful soene. It is of value as a transcript of the life of the Himalayas. The arUst narrowly escaped freeslng to death on his expedition there. He was klUed in the battle of Port Arthur when a nussiau on which he bad gene as a paasen-er In quest of material for his realistic battle pictures, was sunk by the City's Death Rate Drops.

According- to Dr. William H. GuII-foy. Registrar of the Department ot Hewlth, the laat week was one of the roost healthful In the history of the city, especially so far aa the prevalence of Infectious diseases Is concerned, as shown In the number of deaths reported from these cause.

Do you ever give any special thought to the baking powder you use in them? Perhaps not, because habit has dulled your interest. Habit may have kept the same baking powder in use in your kitchen for years. And it might continue to-be used there for years to come, except for one fact The Perfect Baking Powder has arrived and is taking its important place with all thinking housewives.

RYZON is not just one more baking powder. It was made by expert chemists with a definite pur- pose. That purpose was to meet fully and entirely the demands of the food authorities of the country for baking powder improvements for baking powder perfection. And, RYZON has won the approval of the greatest of these authorities. It has also won the commendation of the greatest cooking authorities we have.

This bakine powder is not an experi- ment. It has been subjected to tne severest baking tests and to the most critical judges of bakedHFoods. Their unanimous report is that RYZON can be relied upon for unfailing results for successful baking efforts.
