Woman and the Camera.

Ing the requisites for artistic and finan-
cial success in the pusuits of photogra-
ply rs a profession. 1T Is profess
siOL." she strongly contends, that
should appeal particularly to women,
and in it there are great opportunities
for 1 good-pnying business-but only
under very well-defned conditions.
The prime requisites-as summed up in
my mind after long experience and
tnCught-are these: The woman who
makes photography profitable must
have, rs TO personal qualities. good
common sense. unlimited patience to
carry her through endless failures,
equally unlimited tact good taste, II
quick eye, a talent for detail. and n
genius for hard work. In addition, she
needs training. experience. some capt
ta.. and n field to exploit. This may
seem, ut first glance, an appalling list.
but II is incomplete rather than cNag-
gcgated; although to an energetic, am
bilious woman, with even ordinary OPP
pCftunities, success Is always possible.
and hard, intelligent and conscientious
work seldom failsEo develop small be
Sinulngs into. large results.
Good work should command good
prices. and the wise woman Will place
paying value upon her best efforts.
1t is mistaken business policy to try
and build up trade 10y doing something
badly cheaper than somebody else. As
10 your personal attitude, he business
like I'm all your methods: cultivate tact.
an affable manner, and an unfailing
courtesy. 1t costs nothing but lit
tie self-control and determnatio to
he patient and good-uaturcd under
most circumstances. \ pleasant, OBJ

often prove the most important part OF

Stuffed tomatoes are excellent. Sc
lect as many large, firm, ripe tomatoes
as there are persons to be served, and
cut them in halves. Heat a little but
ter in porcelain-lined saucepan and
lay the tomatoes in it with the flesh
side down. Let them fry two or three
minutes. Make stuffing of one
small shallott, chopped fine Ia small
white onion will dol; one Glove of gar
lic-no more-also minced; the yolks
of two hard-b6iled eggs, n tablespoon
full of equal parts of chopped chives,
parsley and two salt anchovies, fresh
enened and chopped fine. Mix all
these ingredients thoroughly together,
stirring in tablespoonful of butter;
season with a little pepper, and salt if
necessary. Lay the halves of fried to-
mato on IA buttered tin, flesh or cooked
side up, and cover each one of them
with one-siXth of the amount of stuff
