THE DaGuERREOTYPE.
ST., les and Methods in the Days When
II Was New.

Styles and Methods in the Days When
It Was New.
1t is not so very long ago when
daguerreoiype was The only photo
graph. Yet today, when in the frac-
ton OF a second is made the mega
tive from which hundreds of pic
lures may be printed, we seem very
far removed from the days when a
separate sitting was required for
each pict1re.
Abraham Bogardus, one of the
first Americans to use Daguerre's
process, once favored us with some
"reminiscences that throw an inter
esting light on those "old times"
''In the early days of the da-
guerreotype the frock coat was sell
dom seen. A man was well dressed
when he wore a blue cloth dress
coat with black velvet collar and
plain brass buttons, his waistcoat
being either white or light yellow
and double breasted. The only time
ever saw Daniel Webster he wore
such a coat and a yellow waistcoat.
Il often made pictures of old
men in full ruilled shirt bosom and
wristbands as well and with hair in
cue. Some men still wore straps
at the bottom Of their pataloons.
Most of them, instead of twisting
their mustaches, employed their
hands to rof their hair over their
ears.
'Ind1.d, a -nustache was seldom
seen, ad it required considerable
courage appear with one. Young
women .,ould laugh, and street
urchins were ready to ridicule the
wearer.
1T was common for women to
have their hair shaved at the part
ing to make the forehead high.
The higher and broader the ex-
panse the better the woman was
pleased and the greater was the
number Of her admirers, the high
and broad forehead being supposed
to betoken intellect.
"The pictures we made at that
period were pretty severe. Every
line and wrinkle would show. We
had not learned the art Of retouch-
ing. and the likeness was sure TO be
there-horribly correct it some
times seemed.
"As for the retouching process,
it is right to soften strong lines and
remove frowns, but it is not right
to remove a line when by so doing
one destroys the contour of the face.
| have had persons seventy years
old ask if could take their pic
lures so the wrinkles would not
show. NJ answer Invariably was,
Yes, but whore will the likeness
be- A photograph that is not
likeness seems to me not only
misleading but a -cnseless thing.

ITO boil water would seem 10 be .
very simple thing" writes some one In
the Boston Cooking School Magazine.
.and yet the late Chsres Delmonico
used TO say that very few people know
how TO do It, The secret is be said.
IN putting good fresh water into ket
tie already quite warm. setting the wa

many people sick. and IT Is worse than
no water at all For water boiled like
this and favored with a few drops OF

charge as much as for his best liquors.

Vampire superststions.

The prevailing belief in European
countries was that vampires were the
ghosts OF suicides or others who had
died violent deaths and were forced by
the devil to leave their graves at night
and feed on the blood of men and wo-
men. and any who died at the hands of
these dreadful creatures also became
vampires. In this way beautiful WON

HO[ DAY PRESEN NTS|
THE QUEEN OF THE YEAR.


When are low ard nights are long
And winds bring wild alarms,
Through the darkness comes the Queen Of the Year
In all her peerless charms
December fair and olly-crowned,
With the Christ child in her arms
The maiden months are a stately tain.
Yelled in the spoiless SNOW
Or decked in the bloom tf Paradise
What tine tie roses blow
Or wreathed with the vine and the yellow wheat
When the moons of haryes, glow.
But oh, the Joy Of the rolling year,
The queen with peerless charms,
Is she who comes through the waning light.
To keep the world from harms
December fair and holly-crowned,
With the Christ child in her arms.
