THE CAMERA.
Some of the Wonderful Things Of
Which Il Is Capable.

Some of the Wonderful Things Of
Which It Is Capable.
The camera, which divides time into
thousandths of a second and records
the impressions of each. makes perma-
nent pictures of events which pass too
quickly for the dull human ret1na TO
recognize. 1t is only through tie cam
era that the motions Of the " .ngs OF
fying birds and of the legs of swift
running animals have been analysed.
To the camera the fuzzy drivers or the
swiftly speeding locomotives stand
out clear cut and stationary, while
each flying drop of rain in the driven
storm is distinct and seems frozen In
its place. The tarpon fisherman, IA
miliar with the first wild leap OF the
frenzied fish as it casts hook and bait
fifty feet in the air, sees first In the
finished picture the outstretched gllls,
the conyulsive opening and closing or
which had escaped his eye. however
closely he may have looked for 1t.
Often the eye of the camera will de-
cipher documents of which the writing
had been substantially obliterated by
age, anu
with the camera the utterly faded pho
tograph of a classmate of forty years
previous and thereby been enabled to
present to grizzled veteran a like
ness of his curly haired youth.
Changes in the pigment of the skin
undiscoverable by the eye appear with
distinctness on the sensitive plate, and
it is said that ample warning OF ap-
preaching disease has been thereby
given.
BY means of the invisible rays lying
beyond the violet of the spectrum OBJ
jects may be photographed in the dark
ness and, with the aid of the so called
y RAYS. through substances otherwise
opauue. When from the darkness or
night and storm the forked lightning
flashes, the camera makes vivid and
permanent picture of each fiery trail.
Creatures that travel by night can be
"caught" in the brief blaze of a mag
nesium charged pistol, the fash or
which is of too short duration for the
creature to move or the dull human
eve to recognize the subject.-A. w.
