are constrained to declare, is, at the same

feels. is inseparably connected with the
numbering OF margling for mere sport OF
amiable and harmless little creatures.
To one who has been privileged to keep
company with the progress Of ,photogra-
ply from Its beginnings, the advances it
has made and the triumphs it has
achieved are truly wonderful It's most
enthusia site pioneers did not venture to
predict all that it has accomplished, while
. everything that was foreto1d for it has
come to pass, except, indeed, the fixing
Of colors, which, though anticipated, per-
haps, more confidently than almost any
thing else connected with 1t, is. unfortu-
snately. now practically just about where
7 it was then. In nothing has the advance
s been more marked and gratifying than in
the facilities for the practice of art. It
is inconceivable to the new crop Of photo
graphers what a weight has been lifted
from them by prepared plates and pa
inpeniNI,o M a nd ~
nances, and the numberless devices de-
signed to transfer to the hands burdens
which had formerly to be carried by the
brain. These facilities, indeed, have
changed what was an amusement once
SO robust that few could enjoy it into a
pastime so. simple and easy that hordes
of children even get pleasure from it.
But all the difficulties Of the art have
been by no means removed; in fact its
very Improvement has developed new
ones. Many Of these new difficulties arise
from efforts to do what would be irnpos-
sible without the wonderfully rapid plates
now furnished, and from the necessity for
adequately meeting conditions thereby i'm
posed. To help in this direction is a main
object of the book under notice. It tells
how to take Photographic pictures OF
living birds, fishes, snakes, etc, and how
to do it not only presentably. but artisti-
cal1y as well; and that this can really
be done it shows by multitude OF sam
pies OF such pictures taken by the author
many Of them being very excellent and
beautiful. It's descriptions cover very
attractive field OF photography, whose
cultivation we recommend to the army Of
amateurs. Too many Of these are mere
MASTERS OF costly materials on worthless
objects; but if they will aspire to some
thing higher and be guided by this book
they can obtain as much enjoyment as
they got before, Of more rational and
substantial kind, and ct less expense.
