Blue White Prints,

Paper coated with an emulsion, which when printed and toned gives a clear white with bluish tint in the high lights, may be bought of dealers in pho tographic materials. The paper is marked 'Pense, " which is mistake, as the correct spelling is "pensee, " This blue tone may be obtained on aris- to paper by toning the prints in sepa- rate bath and putting few drops of aniline blue in tho fixing bath. Have the tint rather deep, and when the prints are fixed the D hites and high lights will have clear blue tone If the picture is a landscape with plenty of clouds in the sky the effect is almost as if the sky had been tinted.
 Many spots both on prints and mega tives are due to the dishes used not hay ing been properly cleansed, The trays should be wiped out with a very soft cloth or sponge, and once in @ while washed with a little alcohol.
 A set of labels printed with the names of the different chemicals com monly in use in the dark room may be had for 10 cents. They come already gummed and are great convenience.
 A convenient little plate litter is called the-"L," It is 8 tiny contrivance which fits on the side of the tray and saves all danger of scratching the plate in removing it from the tray, and there is no need of putting the fingers into any of the solutions if the ''L'' is used. With this litter. instead of rocking the tray during development, the plate is rocked with the lifter.-Harper' Round | Table

A SCENE IN LONDON.

Picturesque Description of TraGA1R@P
 Square by the Artist, 0. D. Gibson.
 The bewi1dering scene always reminds me of the art student once saw paint ing 1t from the steps of the gallery, and I thought then that if the actors on the great stage in front of her could have seen the hopeless condition of her can vas and her pale, worried face they might have stood still for awhile. But the panorama has never stopped, and the only quiet figures in Trafalgar square are its bronze statues There you will see country boys looking with ad- miring envy at the smart uniforms of the soldiers and with terror at the dingy army of sandwich men shuff1ing through the gutter, carrying advertisements of hot and cold luncheons, Turkish baths, manicure parlors and places of amuse- ment, serving at the same time as awful examples of what will happen to all those who do not take the sergeant's ad- vice and become soldiers.
 Even some of the street beggars ara familiar. The "old rat man" and his pets find Brighton too dull in the winter and come up to London for the season, to mix once more in its streets, where all kinds of horses are driven by as great variety of men, from the ped dler to the powdered wigged coachman. Cable cars and trolleys would be sadly out of place in London, and horseless carriages would be calamity. There should be no need to go faster than horse can trot, and the best way of all is to walk, for then you can enjoy shop windows and look into the faces of the passersby and speculate on who they are. You can go at your own speed and cross the street as often as you wish, or stand on bridge willie scows drift slowly under you and the embankment, with all its lights, and St. Paul's in the distance sink into the smoke and darkness like the dissolving views of a lecturer on travel -" London as Seen by 0.

Nevada.

Nevada is the victim of circum- stances. Rich in the potentialities of material greatness, and therefore strong in the capacity to support social struo- ture, she presents the baffling paradox of declining population in a western state. If she were located in South Af- rica, the nations of Europe would plot and struggle for possession of her min erals, lands and waters; if in New South Wales, the colonial government would employ the public capital to re- claim her deserts and to enable the sur plus population of Adelaide to make homes upon her soil; if in Germany, the imperial government would charter trent banks" to operate under com mission, ill preparing the land for settle ment and building humble houses. to be purchased by home seekers on gener- ous terms; if in Holland, the servants of the little queen would extend the ad- mirable colonies which have hourished for 75 years, graduating thousands of needy men from beggary to tenantry, from tenantry to proprietorship.

ANOTHER GREENLAND.
Explorer BOrchgrevink's Firm Belief In on Antarctic Continent.

an Antarctic Continent.
 In The Strand Magazine O. E. Boroh- grevink reviews briefly the results of his visit to South Victoria Land in 1895. He says:
 "In my opinion tho great southern continent is the Greenland of the south, with just as many possibilities. I do fully believe that hitherto unknown animal life will be found on South Vic toria Land. Captain Larsen on the whaler Jason brought back petrihed wood from Graham Land, south of Cape Horn, which fact, of course, proves great climatic changes in those regions dur ing succeeding periods As our know1- edge of tho great southern continent now stands, we must believe 1t really to be continent, and not mere aoou- mutation of islands, as well from the appearance of tho land, as 1t has been sighted nearly all round, as also from sea soundings, and last, but not least, from the nature of those specimens of rocks which I brought back with me from Victoria Land. If 1t Is all land, 1t is probably of an area twice the size of Australia, ..
 Already the first sight of Victoria Land convinces one that 1t Is of yoloan- io origin. The volcanoes of Victoria Land show a tendency to follow the same line. From Mount Sabine to Mount Melbourne tho trend is south southwesterly. Mount Erebus and Mount Terror lie almost due south of Mount Sabine. Farther north from Mount Sa- bine the great earth fold, on the septum of which this chain of volcanoes Is sit uated, probably bends little westward, as shown partly by the surroundings, partly by the position of Balleny is- land. Northwest of Dalleny island the great fold trends perhaps to the knot- ting point between the Tasmanian axis of folding and that of New Zealand, the former, perhaps, running through Roy ! al Company island, and the latter through or near Auckland island and Macquarie island. The knotting point would probably bo somewhere (upprox- imately) near the intersection of tho six tieth parallel of south latitude with the one hundred and 1ifticth meridian of longitude east from Greenwich It would just join the line of extinct vol canoes along east Australia on the west, and, perhaps, the active volcanic zone of the North island of New Zealand, or, at all events. the fold which bounds that continent on the east.
 ''Traced ill the opposite direction, the volcanic zone probably runs through Seal islands, the active volcanoes of Christensen and Sarsee, and through Mount Haddington, an extinct volcano i'll Trinity Land, to Paulet and Bridg- man islands, active volcanoes

N0A Full KRt.

The world Is by no means full up yet Queensland has still an area of 430, 900, - 900 acres to a population of about 450, e 900 people. Its government has lately been offering more tempting conditions to settlers, who may now hold ordinary land for 90 years ut Q rental of threepence per acre, while "scrub land" may be se- lected in areas up 10, 900 acres and held for 30 years at an average rental per acre of very much less than penny. This ought to be good news for many struggling for bare living in the moth CT country. Of course the climatic con- ditions in many portions of the colony are trying. but so they are in western Australia, which at the present time is adding 750 per week to its population, and the revenue of which has been in, creasing at Q rate far outstripping the calculations of its treasurer. But thit may be only temporary, and it may bC that Queensland will be the home ot millions of our fellow countrymen aftel the golden age in the west of the colo nial continent has passed away.-West minister Gazette.

Serving CarrOGss

A way of serving carrots is the fol- lowing, evolved by a cook desirous, as all cooks should be, of something new" The vegetable is scraped, diced and boiled till tender. Meanwhile a slice of onion is Drowned ill a table spoonful of butter. With this one table spoonful of flour is rubbed smooth and stirred until the flour is cooked Then one cup of tomato juice, not heated, is added to the mixture with a half tea spoonful of salt and dash of pepper. The whole is stewed together three or four minutes before being strained over the carrots, which have been drained. This dish is much more palatable than the creamed carrots because it adds ( needed flavor and is none the harder tC prepare than the better known prepara- tion.-NeW York Post.

Channel Island Despotism.

It is not generally known that some thing approaching military despotism prevails ill the Channel islands Every male adult born in Guernsey or Jersey has to serve for long term of years in the militia, 5 years being the period in Guernsey.
 In addition to this, all males of 82 years of age and under, of whatever ma tionality, who reside in that island foI 8 year and a day continuously have to enter the militia and serve for 15 years, or suffer fine, imprisonment or expul- sion.
 During the last two or three years 8 great number of young Englishmen have settled ill Guernsey to go into the tomato raising industry.
 In order to avoid the military service imposed by the "states'-as the gov ernment of Guernsey is called-they make frequent trips outside their juris- diction-either to England or to Jersey the last named having 8 government independent of the rest of the Channel islands. s.-London Letter.

Ono og tbe Rarcst Rooks.

Among the books of a comparatively recent date, if the seventeenth century can be described as such, is, us the El- zevir collector we'll knows, the famous ''Patissier Francois, R small duodecimO printed by Louys and Daniel Elzevir at Amsterdam ill 1855. A faulty and poor reimpression of work of little value issued ill Paris two years previously, this book has become the most sought after of all he Elzevir works, just be- cause it is wrongly thought to be the soarcest. It has fetched prices reaching ill France as high as 4,600 francs. The reason for the supposed rarity is of course that, instead of being placed on it's first appearance on the shelves of the curious or the studious, the little vol ume was thumbed to pieces by the greasy hands of cooks and kitchen maids. Genuine enthusiasts ill the printers art have hoped to see the price diminished ill presence of the revelations lately furnished concerning it. Its market value, however, shows no signs of dim mutton, and that one copy, sold ir England during the last seven or eight years fetched at Sotheby's on June 10, 1895, the sale being that of the Earl oi Orford, the preposterous price of GlOO. -Gentleman' s Magazine.
