Instantaneous Photography.

A recent Improvement in photography
enables the artist to overcome TO n con-
siderable extent the difficulty OF preserv-
ing the natural expression of the sitter
during the necessary period of exposure.
Il seems that. Notwithstanding this pc
riod has been greatly shortened in vari-
ous ways, particularly by the adoption
tOsuch an extentO of the magnesium light,
with its unique advantages, nervousness
is so prevalent among those who sit be-
fore the camera that the operator has
still found the interval too prolonged Cor
the perfect accomplishment of his work.
Herr Haag of Stuttgart claims to meet
and overcome the trouble in question by
means of q change in tho management
Of the magnesium light, making for this
purpose what are called lightning car
tridges, which cause a tremendous de-
velopment of luminosity and are set
alght in one-tenth of q second by means
of electricity. The so called natural
photographs taken by this process are
said to preserve the mental expression
and momentary play of the features with
extraordinary clearness and exactitude,
but the operation requires so much skill
and practice that it is said to be carried
on only by single photographer in Ber.
lin.-Berlin Letter.

An Escnpe In tho sIv.

Once in awhile a meteor plunging in
to the atmosphere of the earth is neither
consumed by the heat developed through
friction nor precipitated upon the surface
Of the globe, but pursues its way out
into open space again.
It's brief career within human ken may
be compared to that Of a comet travelling
in aparabolic orbit, which, as if yielding
TO a headlong curiosity, almost plunges
into the sun and then hastens away
again. never TO return.
In July, 1892, one Of these escaping
meteors was seen in Austria and Italy.
Careful computations based upon the
observations which were made in vari-
GUS places have shown that it was visi-
bic along track in the upper air about
$50 miles in length. When at its nearest
point TO the earth, it was elevated A.
miles above the surface.
From this point it receded from the
earth, its elevation when last seen being
no less than 9s miles.
Although the resistance of the atmos-
phere was not sufficient to destroy the
motion of this strange visitor, which con-
tented itself with so brief n glimpse of
our globe, yet it carried the effects of
that resistance out into space with il
and can never shake them off.
No matter what its previous course
may have been, the retardation that il
suffered during its passage through the
air suficed to turn it into a different di.
rection and to send it along another
path than that which it had been follow.

A correspondent informs the London

on both glass and dressing table a horrid
mess. AT first the towel kept them

But now they hold back the towel with

me Farmer Tried to Stop Els Growing,
but It Didn't work


When Charlie Trifes went ont into the
country for his health, be put up at
Farmer Ellery Cranberrymarsh's place.
Farmer Ellery was something Of a poul-
try fancier and had one Of those big,
melodious, gamy cockerels Of Buff Co
chin extraction, with voice that was a
cross between the blowing Of a geyser
and the sound Of a three tined whistle ON
a boiler factory. About 3 o'clock every
morning the rooster would arise on his
perch, and standing on his tiptoes make
all the hens sick by letting 90 his voice
like the sound Of many waters.
u also broke up Charlie Trihes' slum-
bers. and he was unable to WOO them
back by cigarettes or philosophy. He
made considerable complaint to Uncle
Ellery, and the old gentleman hunted
over his poultrybook and read as fol-
lows;
There is one simple device by which
a rooster can be reduced to complete
and acceptable silence. The bird can
not crow unless he is able to stand erect
and raise his head to the fullest extent.
Now if a plank, or even a lath, be placed
above his perch so that he cannot gain
an upright position, he cannot possibly
lift up his voice.
Here was the solution. and Uncle FL
lery arranged laths above all the perches.
In the early dawn before milking time
Uncle Ellery crept out to the hennery to
see how the device worked. The cocl,
had just awakened and was trying to get
uptotun his lungs loose in his usual mat
utinal vociferation, but he was unable
10 raise his head. A hen opened one eye,
and seeing his dilemma smiled and
dropped off to sleep again. Uncle FL
lery chuckled.
But the rooster was not to be foiled.
Recognizing his dilemma, he dropped of
the perch to the floor, got a good grip
on an adjacent crack in the boards so as
TO take up the recoil of the crow, raised
himself up on tiptoe and let out his
lungsin in away that pulled Charlie Trihes
out of bed and drove him to cigarettes.
Then after a satisfied "cut, cut, cor
r-r-r-r," the rooster kicked a hen or two
off the roost and dropped off into a con-
tented slumber- Minneapolis Journal.
