has been invented in England. The
patron, after placing penny in the slot,
takes his stand in front of the lens and
adjusts his position by small looking
glass placed above it. He leans against
post few feet in front of the camera,
and in about five seconds the ringing of
bell announces the completion of his
sitting, while forty seconds subsequent
ly his photograph is delivered to him
by the machine, requiring only half a
minutes exposure to the sun or lighted
match to dry or finish it. An additional
half-penny placed in the slot produces a
frame for the photo.
