Printing Without Light.

years none, perhaps, Is so remark.
able, or will have such far reaching
effects as the Donisthorpe process OF
printing without light.
The tedious waiting for hours
which photographer often expert
ences before he can get really good
print from a negative, because of bad
light is altogether abolished By this
new process, says the Boston Herald,
which enables one to take print
from negative in few minutes, no
matter what the light may be. In
fact, no light whatever Is required,
and prints can be made at night just
as well as during the day.
The inventor of the process is
Frank W. Donisthorpe, photo
graphic expert, who has several other
discoveries to his credit. The new
printing process is the result OF much
careful study and many experiments
on the part of Mr.. Donisthorpe, and
the tests to which 1t has been sub
mitted, not only by himself but also
by other Independent experts, proves
ii, in the worls OF one OF the latter,
TO be the 'most wonderful departure
in Photographic methods which has
yet been introduced"
The simplicity OF the process, to-
gether with its economy, makes 1t a
great boon to any photographer,
whether a beginner or an expert.
Briefly. and without going into too
many technical details, the process Is
as follows:
First, the negative to be printed
Is immersed in what is known as q
hardening bath" for five minutes. II
is then rinsed for two minutes, and
placed In strong dye solution for
another five minutes.
After being taken out Of the dye
solution and rinsed, the negative is
laid face upward on a piece of gela-
tinized paper, which has been soaked
In water for two minutes, is laid face
downward on the negative, the two
being squeezed together.
After few minutes the paper can

FIGHTING RATS.

Rats convey leprosy. This is the
latest charge against the rodents,
whose activities in connection with
bubonic plague have made them
more than ever objects of mans
hatred
All over the world the fight against
them is being pushed with yigor. The
thousands of dollars spent by San
Francisco were not wasted. But
there must be unceasing warfare un-
til the pest is exterminated.
A great campaign is announced in
England during the coming months.

These are TO be stimulated to a COM
petition in rat killing
The five clubs which kill the great
est number of rats will receive prizes
of $50 each. There will be more than
fifty other prizes for less notable
achievements.
No prize will be given for less
than 300 rats. The interest is so keen
already that 1t is believed that the
winner of the first prize will show
10000 rats as the result of the exter-
mination contest.

A REPUBLICAN PANIC

Every since the financial panic
which occurred during President
Cleveland's second administration,
the Republicans have made a great
deal of capital out of 'Shard times"
and have proclaimed from the house
tops, and Easements as WELL that a
panic under Republican admin
istration was an utter impossibtli-
ty. This cry has had its effect too,
in presidential elections. Those who
did not stop to figure out the propo-
sition appeared to believe that
there was some sort of an alliance
between the Republican party and
Providence, which gave the Repubn-
cans the first claim on prosperity.
In tire eyes of many the Republicans
were the sole dispensers of good
things and so long as they were
kept in power any old panic which
saw fit to swish its tail in this di-
rection would be successfully warded
off, II only Republican was seat
ed in the presidents chair and the
same party controlled the house and
senate at Washington.
To make their c1aim more sub
stantial, they have been pointing to
the business failures which occurred
during President Cleveland's admin
istration, proclaiming that like
number positively could not occur
under a Republican administration.
Duns review contains a few figures
which will be OF especial interest
as bearing upon this claim Dunn
states that from October lst 1906
to October 1st 1907, business fail
ures in the United States amounted
to $l46, SIT 500. From October 1st.
1907. to August LIST. 1908 the failures
total $219,945,s36. Estimating the
failures for the entire year from
October 1st. 1907 TO October 1st 1908
in round numbers the amount is
6O,OOO,OOO. Taking the same au-
thority for the last two years of
President Cleveland's administration
we find that in 1895 the failures
we're sl73,195,060 and for 1906,
I.S226. .O96,134. A little addition and
subtraction will disclose that for the
last two years of President Cleve-
lands administration, the failures
were a little better than six million
dollars less than for the last two
years OF President Roosevelts ad-
administration.
The old theory that panic can
cot occur during a Republican ad-
mInistration has been thoroughly
disproven by the Developments Of
the past few months and the figures
OF Dunn's reports show that a Re-
publican panic is just as disastrous
as Democratic ponic.

Busy Missouri Acre.

One acre in Missouri, we'll fertiliE-
ed, has produced 600 to 800 bushels
of onions in a season. Onions al
ways are in demand and at good
prices. Tomatoes are a favorite spe-
cially with men engaged In truck
gardening near Kansas City, because
Of the high price they bring in the
early spring. The Brus farm, on
Blue Ridge boulevard, ten miles
east of the city, sends tomatoes tc
the hotels at $3.50 and 81 a bushel,
These are grown from hot bed plants.
AS soon as one crop is picked an
other is ready. At the lower rate OF
$3.50 bushel one acre of tomatoes
would give an income OF $l,050 a
year. Take off enough ground TO
grow the varied vegetables needed
for the family and enough will re-
main to give the intensive grower of
tomatoes 5000 or $1,000 in year. II
he made only half that much 1t
would be more than he could save In
the city.
Your acre need not be idle in the
winter. Get the ground in good
shape and sow spinach, covering It
lightly with manure or straw as a
protection. It is hardy plant and
will grow all winter so that early in
April, sometimes in March, you may
market 1t at rs to 30 cents bushel.
1t doesn't take long to pick bushel
of spinach and II soon counts up.
The possibilities OF an acre of land
near a large market planted In vari-
GUS vegetables are to be given later.

rotation, like the twists of storms
and the whirls seen in water. Van
den Brock, the Belgian geologist,
points out that If conditions of
growth were the cause the torsion
should follow the suns apparent
path. In at least 900 out of 1000
trees the reverse is true. and it may
be that the twist is usually to the
left in the northern hemisphere and
to the right--or with the clock-in
the southern hemisphere, like the
turn of the cyclonic storms and wa
ter vortices. The difference is due to
the earth's rotation. Jean Brunhes
notes that II was shown some years
ago that the winds due to the earth's
motion blow steadily at season
when vegetation is active and sensi-
tive. and slight continuous bending
and turning then would be likely to
affect the tree permanently.

AS for that grit of women-mean-
ing Indian women-there is a story
in Fur News which is good evidence
of their physical courage.
A dealer in skins tells of squaw
who was walking along on her snow
shoes one day when her small boy
saw bear curled up under the snow
in his winter sleep. She could not
kill him where she was, so she LASH
ed pair of scissors to q sapling,
prodded him out and smashed his
head in with her tomahawR as he
emerged
Il gave her $40 for the skim"
writes the dealer so II was not a
had mornings work. Another In
genlous piece OF hunting that re-
member was accomplished by an
Indian who found two moose in a
yard-that is, the snow clearing
which the animals make when the
frosts are breaking up and the snow
is too sharp and brittle for their
comfort
"He crept up and got the female
with his tonahawk The male was
driven to fury and II was unsafe to
approach him. The stroke of a hoof
would have put the Indian out of
business In close order.
Having no gun, he lmprovised a
bow and arrow from the trees, STUCK
sharp file into the point of the ar
row, made a bowstring with the
laces OF his moccasins and shot the
beast through the heart"

II remember an incident which
actually occurred that have never
seen in print, and which | vouch for
as the absolute truth, having seen IL
myself" remarked Johnnie who
served in the Confederate army from
first to last. I'VE were under Gen.
Early and were confronting Gen.
Sheridan in the valley of the Shen-
andoah. The report reached Early
that Sheridan was gradually drawing
in his men and falling back, and
Early, to reach the truth of the ru-
NOR, sent out a brigade OF cavalry,
regiment of infantry and a battery
of artillery to feel the enemy.
"We proceeded some distance and
came up against a regiment of Yam
kee cavalry, and the fellows showed
fight, and right lively at that. OF
course, before the force we had they
had TO give back, but they fought us
all the way toward Martinsburg
Every now and then the Yankee force
would stop and then there would be
n nasty little fight to dislodge them.
Finally we reached Martinsburg.
Now that town made a most ad-
mirable place in which to fight, and
our friends the enemy knew it. and
we had II pretty strong right in the
streets. The houses were built clear

Ing steps up from the sidewalk. The

a hundred yards away, and the way
the bullets were kissing around us
was nerye-distracting.

lad turned his head toward her and
he scornfully replied "oh, d. 1t,

'TIot7 Well. yes. II has been sizz-
ling for several days." remarked the
old veteran as he famed himself with
the old palm leaf, and tried to ap-
pear cool. Il remember march one
time down in Mississippi. 1t was
awfully hot. We dragged along the
road with our tongues hanging out,
and finally reached some woods. We
thought that when we got in there
we should have some relief. But we
found the road narrow and cut
through dense bushes, and with high
trees whose foliage overhung the
roadway. 1t was like going through
furnace.
That condition extended for some
, four or five miles and then we came
to an opening, so to speak. There
were no bushes. and the trees were
scattered, and across IL ran river.
The regiment was halted and the
men allowed to go down and drink
and fill their canteens. The sun was
in such a position that It was re-
flected in a perfect glare right into
our eyes. Men fell by scores, yes,
hundreds, into the water, overcome
by the heat. We who were stronger
pulled them out to keep them from
drowning, Finally guard was
placed along the waters edge and
only the able men were allowed to
go down to the water and carry it to
others. The shores for many yards
were covered by men prostrated. Our
colonel at once ordered the hospital
tents to be spread, and many mans
life was thereby saved, but quite a
number of the weakest died. do not
think that in all my soldier expert
