PHOTOGRAPHY NOT NEW ART
For Centuries Idea Has Been Under.
stood But Only Recently Has
II Been Perfected.

The first sunlight photograph Of d
human face was obtained in 1889 by
Prof. John William Draper of New
York university by the daguerreotype
process. The centenary of Draper's
birth has just been celebrated.
AS long ago as the year 800 Gre
clan princess, Eudoxia Makrembossa,
observed and recorded what is sup
posed to have been the first photo
chemical reaction. Fabricius in 1856
discovered the darkening of silver
chloride when exposed to light, and
in 1927 ]. H. Schulze, German philo-
logist. utilized the discovery for copy
ing. The method was, of course,
crude. Some years thereafter ]. A.
c. Charles prepared in France single
shadow photographs. and Thomas
Wedgewood made camera and
sought to take photographs on silver
nitrate paper. They were not sue
cesses.
In 1916 Niepce invented a hello
graphic process. Daguerre became his
partner in 1889 and together they
perfected the process. Professor
Draper carried the work forward and
astonished the world with his photo
graphic reproductions of the human
face. Since that time photography
! has developed year by year, passing
through the snapshot stage and on to
motion pictures.

He Gained Her Fussiness.

A somewhat fussy elderly lady had
asked the conductor for transfer.
You'll be sure to tell me when We
come to my transfer station, won't
you, conductor" she asked sweetly.
"Yes'm," said the conductor wearily.
The next time he passed through
the car the elderly lady, remember
ing the ways of conductors, said to
him again:
You won't let me go past my trans
fer station, will you. conductor? You'll
be sure to tell me when | get there,
won't you?"
The conductor sighed and looked at
her gently and sadly. II won't have
to tell you, lady" he said. Il won't
have to tell you, cause you'll ask me

MONEY WEARS OUT QUICKLY
Enormous Wastage Through clrcuIa.
tIon on British Gold and Sill
yer Coins.

1t is the duty Of each loyal subject
of the British crown not merely to re-
fuse gold coin that is under a certain
weight but to break it.
Every person." the act reads.
shall, by himself or others, cut, break
or deface such coin rendered to him In
payment and the person rendering the
same shall bear the loss"
But in spite Of this act 1t is risky
business interfering with coins which
you may suspect to be under weight
or spurious. Some months ago a
Grimsby woman offered half SOW
ereign in payment Of goods to a local
shopkeeper. The latter put the coin
in testing machine, and as it broke
in two, refused to take it.
The coin, however, was pronounced
by experts to be perfectly genuine,
and when the case was taken into a
court of law the shopkeeper was or.
dered to refund ten shillings to the
customer.
Money, both gold and silver. wears
out at startling rate. 1t is reckoned
that there is usually a hundred mil
lion pounds in gold coin in England, q
very large proportion of which is
locked in the strong rooms Of banks
Yet of that which is in active circula
tion the wastage is so great that dur
ing every twelve months seventy thou
sand pounds worth of gold and silver
are rubbed off into fine dust.

women Police for German cities.

Berlin and Dusseldorf have decided
to employ women police officers. and
the capital city has already engaged
staff of 80 But their duties are
strictly circumscribed. They are to
concern themselves only with offensos
against children, especially of the
baby-farming variety, and in order
that they may be properly equipped
for the task they are empowered to
break into any house where they be-
lieve that children are being i'll treat
ed. This drastic action is the result
Of several unpleasant scandals which
the authorities are determined to
check, but 1t would be interesting to
know how these women police will
proceed to break their way into a
house that is barred and bolted
against them. To invoke the brute
strength of the male creature would
be humiliating.

COLORADO MAN EXCEEDS
NATIONS AVERAGE WITH
-FOUR INCHES OF RAIN
Wheat runs fifty seven bushel
to acre on farm near e.
bert Colorado

j. M. Bradshaw has just threshed an
average OF twenty bushel Of winter
wheat from his 30-acre tract. This is
4.5 per cent higher than tho average
wheat crop OF the nation, according TO
the government report, and it was rails
ed on four inches CT moisture since it
was drilled in. However it has had
more moisture than that, because Brad
shaw had summer titled in 1910, and
conserved all the rain that fell that sum-
mer. His field was kept clear aud stir
red with a harrow. In July he plowed
seven inches or more deep. Then he
narrowed it repeatedly and drilled it to
wheat on September 2, using 40 pounds
to the acre. In the spring he narrowed
twice.
Spots in the field where the SHOWS lay
threshed 81 bushel to the acre. Only
one little rain in the growing season
would have made this 60 bushel wheat
for the whole field. 1t was cut July 10
and threshed August 3. Bradshaw has
been developing his wheat for several
years. 1t is combination OF Fultzo
and Mediterranean. Mr. Bradshaw has
fifty acres OF Red Cross wheat and
seventy acres Of oats raised in the same
way that are turning out big. He has
