PHOTOGRAPHY AND SCIENCE

Revelations Made by Adopts I'm the
Use of the Camera.
A case on trial before Judge George
r.. Sage in the United States district
court for the southern district of Ohio
involved the validity Of a deed executed
Is years ago. The deed was for 1,5O0
acres of valuable farming land, and for
some reason-perhaps because there
were joint owners-required the sigma
lures Of five persons.
The paper vas yellow with age, ard
all the writing was dim, though legtble
except al to n name. There were
four signatures, but no trace Of 4 fifth,
though there was an aFpara lily blank
space where it might have stood. None
CT the microscopes In common use by
experts disclosed a line Of any signature
where it should have appeared.
Under these circumstances the aid Of
photography was inv oked, says in OK,
change. The Photographic copy was
taken with the greatest care by an ex.
pert artist. 1t was then enlarged ten
times, when the missing signature be-
came visible. The minute scattering
stains of the ink, which had faded so
as to be visible by ordinary methods,
were %perceptible and assumed regular
order on the enlarged photograph, es-
tablishing the validity Of tie deed.
The revelations of the starry heavens
which photography has furnished show
in a somewhat familiar way its uses.
The pictures of sidereal space are en-
larged many times and then the eye,
aided by proper lenses, is applied to
the surface. Tiny points on the picture
revealed to science OH the map Of the
sky myriads of stars which had never
been seen by man through the most
powerful telescopes.
1t appears that objects absolutely in
! visible by any help which the eye can
receive take their places on a photo
| graphic plate and are transferred to
the picture. BY charging the picture
through further Photographic processes
the point Of light which was unim-
aginably small on the original, becomes
visible, and denotes the existence Of q
world of light so far distant In space
that the luminous particle just discov-
cred must have started from its source
perhaps 10000 years before it met hu.
man eyesight.
