HALF-roNE ENeRAvINas.
How the Illustrations Of the Maya
zines Are Made.

zines are maue.
Pictures for the illustration Of
magazines and some newspapers
are now made direct ftom photo
graphs. A glass screen with dia-
mond scratched lines, ruled at right
angles SO close together that the
spaces can hardly be distinguished,
is placed one-eighth OF an inch in
front OF the sensitive plant in the
Photographic camera. Looked
through, the effect is much the same
as gazing through sieve. These
lines re-appear in the half-tone en-
craving when printed.
The photograph, or wash drawing,
from which the photo.engraving is
taken is photographed in the usual
way and with the usual sensitive
plant, with the previously described
screen in the camera between the
plate and the picture. This pro-
duces q negative Of the picture,
showing the fine cross lines repre-
sented by clear glass. Now in order
to have the same position OF the OBJ
ject OF the engraving as the original,
the film Of the negative is treated
to one or two coats OF collodion,
which gives 1t a sufficient consist
ency to permit Of its being removed.
This film is transposed to the oppo-
site side OF another glass. After
careful mounting this new negative
is ready to be used as a medium for
printing on the zinc plate.
The face of the plate is buffed to
the highest degree of polish, then
coated with a solution of albumen
and gelatine, then sensitized with
bichromate ammonia. It il then
dried and placed in the printing
frame, the coated side next to the
negative film.
The case is then exposed to the
sun or light three to FIVE minutes, or
to an electric light for fifteen or
twenty minutes. The light passes
through the heavy, thick glass OF
the printing frame, then through
the negative, striking the sensitized
plate and decomposing the chemi-
Gals wherever il may fall. Where
thV Pioeo 10 PiotCStCu W tho ohou-
ows and half.tones OF the negative
the sun light has less effect, and
where the shadows are dense it has
no effect.
This plate is then removed from
the frame in dark room and care
fully washed under running water
for several minutes, then dried and
heated until the picture appears OF
q dark brown color. The back OF
the plate is rubbed with wax while
hot to protect it from the etching
solution, which is made from per.
chloride OF iron. The picture on
the plate is acid proof, and the etch.
ing solution eats only where the
plate is unprotected = that part
which is blank in the finished en-.
craving. The plate is allowed to
remain in the acid bath about fifteen
minutes, or until sufficient depth il
reached. 1t is then washed and il
ready for the reuter- and the printer

CATCHING COLD
Is What So Many People are Doing
Nowadays, and Thus Laying
Foundation for Chronic Catarrh.

Already the season of catching cold
is upon us. The cough and the sneeze
and the nasal twang is to be heard on
every. hand. The origin of chronic ca
tarrh, the most common and dreadful of
chronic diseases, is cold. This is the
way chronic catarrh usually begins: A
persons catches cold which hangs on
longer than usual. Then follows sensi-
tiveness of the air passages, which in
clines one to catch cold very easily. At
last the person has a cold all the while
seemingly-more or less discharge from
the nose hawking from the throat, nos
trils stopped up, full feeling in the head,
cracking in the ears. ITO 't r
The best time to treat catarrh is at the
very beginning. A bottle of Peru-na,
properly used, never fails to cure a com
mon cold, thus preventing chronic catarrh.
While many people have been cured of
catarrh by single bottle of Pe-ru-na,
yet, as a rule. when the catarrh becomes
thoroughly fixed more than one bottle is
necessary to complete cure. Pe-ru-na
has cured cases innumerable of 20 years
standing 1t is the best, if not the only,
internal remedy for chronic catarrh in
existence. But prevention is far better
than cure. Every person subject to
catching cold should take Pe-ru-na at
once at the slightest symptom of cold at
this season of the year, and thus prevent
what is almost certain to end in chronic
catarrh.
Send for free book on catarrh. Address
The Pe-ru-na Drug Manufacturing Com
pany, Columbus, Ohio. Ask your drug
gist for the Pe-ru-na Almanac.

NICARAGHANlC CANAL.

London Oct. 2S-As cabled to the Asso-
ciated Press last, night, the Times today
published three column article on the
proposed canal, to join the Atlantic and
Pacific oceans through the Republic OF
Nicaragua. This article is written by A
X. Colquhoun, correspondent, who was
specially sent by the Times TO Nicaragua
at about the time the United States gov
eminent commission went to that country
in order to report upon the feasibility
of the plans of the Maritime Canal COM
pany of Nicaragua and the Nicaraguan
Canal Construction company. In Nlcara-
qua Mr.. Colquhoun met the United States
commission and it is understood to have
thoroughly studied the plans for the inter
oceanic waterway. He arrived at the
conclusion that the project can not be
carried through as private enterprise,
but that it must be under the auspices OF
"some strong government, which without
doubt must be the United States.
The Times correspondent is convinced
that the cost of cutting the suggested
waterway will be nearer Sl50,OOO,U0o
than $100,000,000. Continuing, MI
COlquhoun says:
CAS- regards the political aspect, conf
dental communications are said to nave
passed between the British and United
States governments and no objections
have been raised. In any case IL Woulu
seem that under the Clayton-Bulwer
treaty of 1850, any connection between
the Atlantic and Pacific by a ship canal
through Nicaragua will have to be ned
tralized in the same way as the Sue2
canal in 1888. The object of the bill
recently passed by the United States sen
ate is practically to acquire control OF the
canal. This is matter which concern,
not only the United States, but the world
at large. more especially Great Britain
But for the obstacles hindering the Unit
ed States government itself in undertaK,
ing the construction it would have. Deen
completed long ago. The work is SO
great. the benefits are not so transcendenI
and the interests involved are SO vast ana
complex that it should be removed from
the chances of private enterprise, affected
as it would be by the stringency OF me
fluctuations of the money market ana the
attitude of the governments OF Nlcafa-
qua and Costa Rica. Mr.. Colquhoun also
inspected the route of the proposed canai
through the Isthmus of Panama ana ne
estimates that even if it is feasible, not
more than one-third of the work has been
executed and that it would cost largely
over S2O0,000,000 to complete It. lie re-
CARDS Chagres river and the Culeora cut,
horizons of the Panama canal plans, as
being insurmountable obstacles TO the
completion of that undertaking.
