occasion by her presence and, OF

they ask her to play little, some

"As you may imagine, 1t takes

Adabelle's mother keeps time for

launched on her repertoire, with
sigh Of relief begins her monologue.
"Of course we've spent good deal
on Adabelle's music-but we feel
more than repaid already.
Her father and myself just wanted
her able to play for her own and our

REMARKABLE Photography.


Photography has caught the fast
est express train in motion by means
of the cinematograph, and 1t also
shows the growth Of flower. A bud
which bursts into bloom in, say, 10
days, is exposed to a camera every
IS minutes during the is days, ana
when the pictures developed from the
films are assembled in order in the
moving picture machine, the observer
may see, to his delight, all In min
ute or two, the gradual breaking OF
the bud-the blossoms open, close py
night and reopen in the morning, the
leaves grow under the eye, the sta
mems peep from cover, and, finally,
the fullblown flower.
