HOW TO BE A FUTURIST.

"Take a table with a large tray on it. Represent all that part of the table hidden by the tray, 'jo represent the thickness of somebody's neck paint his collar as if vou con id .sw the back as well aa the' front, so that the sitter looks at iirst as if he were a suit of tlothes onl a decapitated body." These examples of the way to be a futurity painter are given in all seriousness in an article by M. Ray Nyst in a imblication called "Artistic and Literary Belgium." Where the ordinary artist sees only a christening giftbox or bon-bons on a table the Futurist ■will show the inside of thc< box, the ;ple who accept the gift on behalf of th« child, the child itself, and perhaps the marriage of the father and mother, as well as the visitors at the ceremony and the carriages."
