may be the final verdict, It is unquestionably
true. however. that the mechanical photog.

Photographic his unrivaled successor. Inc

The Twofold Functions of Photography.
That photography can ever take the place
of art. that the camera can ever displaee
the brush, the pencil or the pen, is no more
to be supposed than that the mechanical
pianola player will do away with pianists.
One can never have the spontaneity of the
other But that is not to say that photog-
raphy is without mission or beyond the
pale of art The functions of photography
are, in fact. twofold-to bear witness and
to make known the beautiful-and it is in
the recognition and fulfllment of these
privileges that it finds it's opportunity.
1t is these particular truths which the
first American salon chiefly illustrates.
From every section of the northwestern
hemisphere have come prints which bear
the stamp of veracity, which in simple Ian
qua ge-the great UNIVERSAL language of man.
kind-tell q story, and which in almost ev-
cry instance set forth something which is
pleasing in itself. Good composition-choce
of SUBJECTS demonstrated, and clever
lighting-choice of time-made evident.
A year ago a collection of prints by the
PhCto-Secessionists, an astute organization
of enthusiastic artist photographers, was
exhibited in the hemicycIe at this same
time, and by reason of its merit attracted
wide attention. 1t contained some brilliant
work, and showed to a surprising degree the
possibilities within the scope of the cam

more choice. That it was, taken all in all,
better or even universally interesting
would, however, be hard to say 1t rep
resented the camera plus not only mans
intelligent manipulation. but his skillful and
often trained brush work; whereas the pres
ent show sets forth merely what is techni-
cally known as straight photography. In
the matter of criticism, which has to deal
with results only this should make no diff
ference, but in determining the value and
the possibilities of the camera as a me-
dunn of expression it must have some
weight

Join Central Maine Fair Association.

III. ID. r. Aver of North Vassalboro
was in Waterville, Thursday. soliciting
for life members of the Central Maine
Fair Association. A strenuous effort
is being made, at this time, to secure
the names of Would-be life members
to the association before the second
annual meeting and banquet which is
to be held at the Coliseum at the
grounds. Dec I. Mr.. Aver after a
short canvass. has been able to secure
the names Of upwards of so men for
this purpose who are willing to link
their support to the up5uilding of what
is certainly to be the great Maine fair
Of the future. He expects to obtain
100 signatures of desirable individuals
before he ceases his work in this di-
rCction.
Mr.. Aver has, thus far, received the
cordial support Of many of our most
representative men and he desires to
express his appreciation of the well
come and encouragement which he has
received at their hands. In addition to
the public-spiritcd enthusiasm which
he has found in evidence, it would be
well to state from outside sources of
information, that this same work has
been progressing in neighboring towns
and cities with remarkably good re-
suits.

A FRIGHTENED HORSE
Smashes Carriage and Seriously In
lures Mrs. George Perry.

---------
AS Mrs. George Perry. accompanied
by her friend, Mrs. Harry Vigue. was
driving on Western avenue, about 2.45
O'Clock, Thursday afternoon, the horse
suddenly became frightened at All APP
preaching electric and SHE'D to one
side of the road. A forward wheel of
the carriage came in contact with an
electric pole, freeing the horse from
the thills and ovcrturning the vehicle.
Mrs. Vigue happily succeeded i'm leap
ing from her seat before the carriage
was overturned and escaped without
injuries, although she was considerably
bruised.
Mrs. Perry, however, was less for
tunate. She remained in her seat,
hoping to prevent the horse from run
ming away and was found. few mo-
ments later. under the body of the car
rage and suffering intense pain. She
was taken to the residence of f. J.
GOodridge, across the way and Drs.
j. G. Towne and c. w. Abbott immedi-
ately summoned.
The young woman was in such agony
that ether was administered before the
physicians could make any cXamina-
ton of her wounds. They found that
no bones had been broken, but that the
spine was severely wrenched at the
lower part. She was removed to her
home on Percival court, and the latest
opinion of the physicians states that
no internal complications are likely to
develop and that she stands a good
show of complete recovery within a
few weeks time.
The carriage, which was a valuable
one. was entirely destroyed. The
horse was soon afterward caught and
was not in the least injured.

COD LIVER OIL.

1t almost makes you
sick to think of it, but it
isn't nearly as bad as it
used to be. The improved
method of refining it
makes it much easier to
take, and when made into
SCOTS Emulsion almost
every one can take it.
Most children like it and
all children that are not
robust are benefited by it.
When the doctor says
"Take cod liver OIL" he
generally means SCOTS
Emulsion; ask him if he
doesn't. They know it is
more easily digested and
better than the plain oil.
