Yes that's the talk, spread the gospel

commend it than a continual effort

telegraph, was in Paris when the news
was published, and at once went to see

the plate, for a picture taken Of a
crowded boulevard showed it as if en-
tirely deserted, with the exception Of a
man having his shoes polished. The
mans feet, he said, were well defined,

making the first Photographic portrait,
the artist being Professor John Draper,
a professor and afrerward the president
Of the University of New York. His
victim was his sister, Miss Catherine
Draper. He powdered her face. that the
likeness might be more quickly i'm
pressed on the sensitive plate, and for
80 minutes Miss Draper sat-or, at
least, tried to sit-as immovable as a
statue.

formed in Boston in the spring Of 1910
