By the term instantaneous photo
graphy" wrong impression generally
prevails as to its meaning. A clear
photograph cannot be taken of body
in motion as is generally supposed.
An animal, planet or comet may be
travelling with marvellous Tapldity, but
the picture Is secured in so brief space
of time, that the body to all intenis and
purposes is absolutely at rest during
the operation. The human being sits
in the photographer chair a full min
ute to allow the camera to receive the
correct impression. During that mo-
ment a horse on the race course, travel
ling at the rate of thirty-six miles per
hour, would have gone 1850 yards
Had the camera been exposed on the
horse full moment, the image produced
would scarcely represent shadow. In
q seconds time the animal would have
travelled eighteen yards. 1t Is obvious
in consideration Of the above that no
better results would have been obtained.
Travelling at the rate of eighteen yards,
or 24S inches per second. III one SIX
hundred and forty-eishth part of sec
ond, the horse, as a whole, would have
advanced one inch. Even in that brief
time, and the animal, moving that short
distance, would give the camera but a
blurred, unrecogmzable Impression.
In order to secure good picture, the
animal, as a whole, must not move over
one tenth OF an inch, an amount equal
to the winking of an eye or the nervous
vibration of An individual sitting still
before a camera. The time thus IT.
quired would be 6, 48)th part OF sec.
ond. Mr.. Muybridge found by actual
experiment that in order to secure an
accurate photography of galioping
horse the exposure of the camera must
be less than one five thousandth part Of
second. He accordingly devised a
highly detected apparatus by which
every position OF horse in motion was
secured.

F. j. Fdraddy is inclined to the be-
hef that the breathing of air devoid of
the usual quantity of oxygen Is apt to
develop germs otherwise harmless into
those which produce consumption. As
giving support to his hypothesis, he
cites the decrease of consumption in
well ventilated barracks, and the relief
afforded to patents by sea voyages, the
air of pine woods and the Inhalation
of carbolic acid.

TALKING with a friend the other day

TALKING with a friend the other day
about the tricks of youth and the dimly
remembered slipper, he said that he
recollected one day when his mother
was sick and his prim old aunt came to
preside over him. the older brother
and the table. Having leased his aunt
past all endurance. she tapped his
sconce, when he called her an old fool.
At the supper table his father was in
formed of his impudence. and Will
was told to go to the head of the table
and tell his amt he was sorry. He
went and fulfilled the command, with
hanging head, by saying:
'Tm sorry you're an oil fool,
Auntie. He got no supper, but
meant well.

College girl who baked few loaves of

a CoRREsP SDEST is inclined to find
the cause OF abortion III cows in the use
OF Syracuse salt. snd thinks there is
some mineral IN il that causes the trou-
BILE. He says: ''rhe first ever heard
of abortion as an epidemic was in the
vicinity OF Syracuse, and as the salt
made there came East abortion follow
ed" Singularly enough, a Littleton
Mass. farmer, who keeps a large herd
of cattle, some time ago expressed the
opinion that abortion in cattle was pretty
sure to follow the use of Turks Island
salt. and that when he used American
salt for his COWS he avoided the difficult
ty. These two observers agree IN ascri-
bing the trouble to salt, but each finds
safety in the particular kind OF salt con
demned by the other.
