RUSSIAN CZARINAS DISAGREE
The dowager emrpess of Russia seeks
solace for her troubles in tobacco, but
the young czarina frowns openly upon
the habit. When she was the first lady
in the great empire the dowager en-
press encouraged smoking among the
court ladies. by her own indulgence in
the habit. but when the young czarina
assumed the leadership she issued an
edict prohibiting smoking by the ladies
attached to her household.

ITALY AND ROUMANIA, TOO
The queen of Roumania and Queen
Margherita of Italy both smoke, as does
also the handsome wife of the young
prince of Naples, who is destined to oc

princess, when she was Helen of Mon

the personal care of the dowager en-

contracted all the customs of her royal

Color Photography.

Amateur photographers are now ex-
perimenting extensively with the new
process of color photography. The
nature of the. chemicals used is secret,
although the method is very simple.
Over forty shades may be produced
from the three primary colors used
The Photographic plate is developed in
the usual manner, after the color
liquids are applied. Most of the COL
ored photographs seen heretofore have
been painted by hand. The new auto
:matic process gives much finer results.
Pictures Of landscapes and marine
views are very satisfactory. But the
most striking are those taken of SOL
diers of the French army. Gorgeous
reds, blues, both light and dark, gold
buttons. and laces show with great
brilliancy. Even precious stones have
been pictured clearly by the new pro-
cess. It is so delicate that not only
flesh tints but actual differences in
complexion show.
Your picture may be taken in all the
colors of nature, giving color of hair,
eyes and skin. Spring bonnets and
new gowns may be shown to best ad-
vantage It is thought that at last sat
isfactory photographing Of oil paintings
may be accomplished.
