and ornamentation the best work of the eigh-
teenth century has been perfectly reproduced
and it is impossible to conceive anything more
beautiful. I saw Mr. Hayward, who is the
Miller people's Sheraton, and to be candid,
he made me creepy. He has the enthusiasm
of one who discerns thought-tints, which,
unconsciously I often looked behind me to
try to fathom. It is this peculiarity, I rea-
soned, which lends to his brush the exquisite
fullness of development, yet quietude in tone.
His work is superb, ornamentation which
might at first be considered elaborate, having
received such masterful blending with the
basic wood-grain that one can but accept the
most pronounced color effort as the crisis
in an art poem of harmonious modulation. I
am told that the Miller people will send some
of their Colonial designs to London in an-
other year, and I will predict for them an
enthusiastic reception.
Speaking of the Henry F. Miller & Sons
Piano Co., brings to mind a very graceful
tribute also paid their artistic creations in
last Saturday's Boston Home Journal. Their
Colonial designs, which are relieved with
exquisite decorations by Samuel Hayward,
are conceded to be sui generis for beauty and
appropriateness of decorative work. The
many compliments paid the Miller house in
tre matter of their artistic designs must be
a pleasing recompense for their efforts along
these lines.
