PRESIDENTS AND WHISPERS.
Martin Van Buren, First Chief Ex-

speaking Of whisllers,' said the man
in the chair when the barber gave him
chance to slip a few words in

Martin Van Buren, was the first Pres,
idcnt of the United States to wear
whiskers?

we call 'presbyterians in these days,
you know.
Martin had no precedent" the man
in the chair went on. For Washing,

predecessors, irrespective of party, had
smooth faces. After Van Buren, there
wasn't another President with hair on
his face until Abraham Lincoln He

drew Johnson, was smooth-faced, but
Grant, who came after him, wore a full

Hayes, Garfield and Harrison.
Grants was the first presidential
muStache, although the mustache alone
did not appear until some time later.
Arthur wore mustaChc and sdeboards,'

He couldn't have worn any other kind.
Cleveland was the first President to
introduce the mustache without the ac-
"ompanying beard, and Roosevelt is the
only other President to adopt the same
style. Mckinleys face was rs smooth
as his manners. If Vice President Fair

Fairy Pictures.

One way of producing the blend is
doubling the film, and this is the meth
cd most often adopted when sunernat-
ural appearances or disappearance
are depicted. For example, fairy ap-
pears to a child, talks a moment, and
then disappears. First, a film of the
scene. with the child in the foreground,
is taken, the object being gradually
thrown out of focus as the registration
proceeds. Next, film Of the scene
and the child with the fairy Is taken,
out of focus at first and gradually
brought into focus. Then the two films
are placed one upon the other so that
they register exactly, and the result is
the apparent gradual naturalization
of the fairy out of nothing. The fairy
Is, of course, much smaller than the
child in the picture. In reality they
are about the same size. the apparent
difference being due to their respective
distances from the camera.
In the cases of apparent defiance of
natural laws, such as stones running
up hill and jumping into open win.
dows, or people walking upon the cell
ings, the effect is produced in diff
ferent manner. The exposures are
taken in the usual way. The stones
fall out of the window and roll down
the hill, and the people walk on the
floor like civilized creatures while they
are being photographed. But when the
reproductions are made the films are
carefully reversed. run backward, as
1t were, and the result is the reversal
Of the action part of the picture. This
is a simple trick enough but Is hard
to understand unless you have seen it
done. and is one of the most pllzzling
Of all the many Illusions of motion pic
lures.

4 Girls Vision.

The Errand Girls Dream shows
another way of working a little trick
on the audience. In the first scene the
girl is shown leaving her home to go
to the shop where she is employed. In
the second scene she Is shown at work
in the shop and afterward starting out
with a biz box to deliver some goods
to customers. These two scenes are
shown with their natural back grounds
having been taken without preparation
in typical sections Of Paris. But after
tie girl starts on her errands the oper-
ator of the kaleidoscope leaves her and
returns to the theatcr, where he finds
an actress made up to look like her
and a scene painted to represent the
street through which the girl is likely
to pass.
In this scene the actress Is saunter-
ing along the street. Seeing a bench.
she SITS down, places her box beside
ber and Is soon lost In day dreams
suddenly The box opens and out Of 1t
comes a party of fairy creatures who
bow nrettily 10 the girl. and then jump
ing down, 90 through a merry dance.
