Tho mngnlllcont painting of Ills Holiness, l'opo Leo XIII, Is lho work of tho cele brated artist, J. A. Mohlto, who has had tho ndvnntngo of tho constant criticisms and advlco of tho highest dignitaries of tho Ilnmnn Catholic Church In America, who havo devoted unusual tlmo In going over tho dotnllB with tho nrtlst so that tho llnlshcd work would be as near perfect aB nnythlng that has over been brought nut. Tliono who havo been favored by His Holiness with an audlenco exclaim over tho romnrk nblo likeness of this painting. It Is Indoed a portrnlt absolutely truo lo life. Tho work has been gotten out at an oxponso of over $5,000, tho lithographs being finished ln 12 separate printings on tho highest grndo of chrome paper, nnd has been treated ln n very artistic manner. Tho vnluo of this plcturo Is almost bovond calculation, bIhco It Ib tho very latest, nnd, In nil probability, will bo tho laBt plcturo over gotten nut from Biich nuthorltntlvo sources. Tho plcturo ls a tribute to tho unusunl reign of Leo XIII. On Wednesday, Fobrunry 20, 1901, His Holiness received tho Cnrdlnnls and high functionaries of tho church, who wnlted upon him In tho Vntlcnn on that day to con gratulate htm upon tho anniversary of his election to tho pontificate, Tho reign of Leo XIII Is tho longest of tho 2C0 Pnpal rolgns.

With tho denth of Cardinal Oaleatl, on Jnnunry 25, Ills Holiness, Pope Leo XIII, had burled 135 Cardinals slnco ho began his rotgn. His remarkable strength of body, as well ns of mind, Is now tho subject of uni versal comment, making him one of the most Interesting men of our tlmo.
