to me by a professional photoyra-
pher several years ago, and, follow
ing his suggestion, I have saved
money and secured a greater pro
portion Of good negatives. Here is
the formula as he gave it:
In distilled water dissolve sal soda
Ordinary washing sodO until the
hydrometer test is 30 degrees.
In another bottle dissolve su]phite
of soda until tho hydrometer test is
40 degrees.
To develop, take equal parts of
each, and for a properly exposed
plate add s grains of pyro to s
ounces of the combined solution.
find that after a little practice I can
measure out the pyro in small
wooden mustard spoon without
weighing it, and, knowing the plate
have to develop, make each lor

For testing | use al ordinary hy

CHRISTOPHER WICKFi;,
One Of Colonel Cal1iper's Old Time FrAt1,u
In StorlYilIA Center.

| Iii StOrkFHlt SeAteFe
''Arter he had lost one umblt NJ.
in th':t way said Colonel CaIiipe12
"my old friend Christopher W'icl;
fin, who formerly resided IN S;torI;
vile Center, VT, made up his mind
that he'd never lose another--that
is, by having it turned inside out
and he rugged up an arrangement
! to prevent it. This WAS q pretty
elaborate sort Of thing in its dc
tails, but in operation it was ex-
tremely simple.
/ "In those days almost every man
in Storkvillo Center-and for that
matter many men in larger places,
too-wore boots. Nh. Wickfin S UNI
brella was of stout cotton, with
Whalebone ribs; that was when
whalebone was cheap and before
the advent of the modem umbrella
rib Of channel steel. TO the tip Of
every rib OF his um brel]a Mr.. Wick
fin attached a ring. He wore around
his body a belt, to which were at
J tached as many cords as there were
ribs to his umbrella. at the end Of
each cord was a snap hook which
he snapped into it's ring at the end
Of an umbrella rib. From the belt
on each side Of the body a stout cord
was carried down and run through
the boot strap on that side and then
brought up and fastened to the belt,
at a little distance from the other
end, SO as to distribute the strain.
Thus equipped, Mr. Wickfn was
prepared to keep his umbrella from
being blown inside out by any storm
that might come along. The idea
that the wind might pick him up
and carry him and the umbrella and
everything off together never oc-
Cured to him, but that was just
what happened on the very first day
he tried it,
1T was q tremendous rainy day,
with the wind blowing a gale and
with gusts now and then that it
seemed would blow the roofs off the
houses. But that was the sort Of
day Mr.. Wickfill wanted, and he set
out for the postotfice with all his
rigging in place, feeling secure and
easy and proud Of the victory that,
he had gained over the elements,
AS he walked along Main street,
carrying his umbrella with the
ropes coming down all around and
converging at his waist, he present
ed queer sight, buta moment later
he presented a sight far more re-
markable. A groat gust that camo
roaring down the street doubled un-
den. Mn Wickfin's s mbrel]a and lift

ed him off the earth and carried him
skyward. Storkville Center at one
time and another had seen many
strange sights, but never any quite
SO strange lis that. ~z ..
MI. Wickfn let 60 Of his unlbrel-
Ia, but the uI bIel]a Wouldn t let go
OF him. It carried him up Oh the
wings Of The wind, while all Stork-
vile Center looked Oh at him sway
ing helpless beneath it. But the
wind was mercjful to him. After
carrying him up and down and
round about for Il minute OF two it
dropped him through the top of a
greenhouse He smashed more glass
and frame than four umbrellas
would have cost, but he escaped
without injury to himself, and for
that he WIS thankful.
We'll, after that experience Mr..
Wick1in made up his mind that,
while the thing was all right in
principle, it needed some improve
lnent, and he fixed an attachment
to the belt by means Of which he
could, when he felt the wind lifting
him, cast of all the ropes and let
the umbrella go. Theoretically this
was all right; III practice, when the
test came, the tic ropes Jummed on
both sides before he could get them
loose, and up he went again. Then
he hit upon a plan that would no
doubt have worked perfectly: His
own weight was 1G0 pounds; he adj
justed all the ropes to breaking
strain Of $50, SO that under that
pressure the umbrella would free
itself from him automatically, but
he never put this plan in operation.
BY the time he had worked this out
he had discovered that there are
many things that could be done that
are not worth the doing. New

PICTURES FOR
 SWEET CHARITY A Poster Exhibit Is Given In Aid of the California
 Hospital. Miss Helen Knapp Fitzgerald the Main Contributor and
 Manager.

Although the rain had a tendency 10 throw a pail of disappointment over the success of the poster exhibition and mus ical given at the studio of Mrs. McDonalo Sleeth yesterday afternoon, in aid or the free ward and clinic of the California Eye and Ear Hospital, it nevertheless proved both an artistic and financial success The large attendance in the evening more than compensated for the lack of visitors in the afternoon, and pocketbooks were burst asunder with a liberality tha. fairly swelled the little treasury.
 The unusually large variety and col lection of posters. designed and painted by Miss Helen Knapp Fitzgerald, the young and accomplished daughter of the Attorney General, proved the center of attraction and, In fact, the attraction on every hand, as the walls of the quaint studio were literally covered with them. The entire exhibit consisted of 1000 de- signs and was the largest and best ever exhibited in the city. Nearly all of them were disposed of by auction. and in ad- dition to realizing a good price on the sale, they carried the satisfaction to the purchaser that he was receiving more than an equivalent for the money ex- pended. The entire display. with but two exceptions, was contributed entirely by the brush of Miss Fitzgerald, the young and shining light In the work of charity.
 Her whole mind has been concentrated ana cenIered on a deSlre to Denent the hospital by the institution of the blind and deaf ward, and if when the final this ambition, 1t will be no fault of hers, but rather the indifference of an unchar- itable public.
 In conjunction with the poster exhibit a musical by the following well-known artists was given: Frank Coffin. Miss Agnes Simpson, Professor Eetzenbach, Miss Scheel and three professionals from ScheeHs orchestra
 Associated in the work of exhibiting the posters was Miss Louise Currier and in the work of receiving the guests the fol- A. Barnare, Mrs. Sleeth, Miss Alice M. Beatty, Miss May Palmer. Miss May Col burn, Miss Birdie Rice. Miss ArdeIIa Mills and Miss Sophie Berrell.
