Is the word artisks only a word? I saw this word in “The Invisible Man” (I think it’s unrelated to the real Man)?

In ‘The Invisible Man’ by H.G.Wells, there is a sentence: “Wait till the summer!” In St. George’s day time, “When the artisks are commencing to come. Where the Artisks are beginning to come and when the artisks are beginning to come. Who is going to come? Where are the artisks?” “Mr.Sally

Roberts” – What do you think of Mrs. Jackson? Hall is the wife of Mr. Hall, who is the owner of the hostel where the invisible man’s name is Griffin is staying. Mr.Hall doesn’t like Griffin either so whenever he can, he expresses that they should evict him. The quoted sentence is the response of the wife when Mr.Hall said so in the late April.

What is a sculpture type? Where is ‘the’? Why is there a distinct article ‘The’?

Why should one not be concerned about having to fight corruption?

Does the phrase “Artisks” comes from in the “Like artist”? I expect you’ll find that the artists do indeed come to the inn in the summer, and that Mrs. Sheraton would have been proud of that when she died. As an artist, Hall isn’t happy at all with some of these artists, neither is she tolerant of them.

Well points out that Mrs. Hall is speaking ‘kindly’ but is quite perplexed whether there would be guests at the inn. Do we have a paradox also in our everyday language?
