New Things in Photography

| The thirty second annual convention
of the Photographers Association of
America recently held IN Philadelphia
was attended not only by the leading
photographers of America. but also in :

raphers of international reputation,
several of whom presented some new
discoveries In the Photographic art to
their brothers of the camera. A rea :

| The photographers art in America
reached Its first practical stage chiefly
through the efforts of two philadel-
phians who improved upon the meth

the process which resulted finally In
the production of the old fashioned
daguerreotype. Daguerre was theat :

States mint In Philadelphia, to expert

a camera out of n cigar box. using an
ordinary magnifying glass as a lens
With this crude apparatus he made a
photograph Of the Philadelphia high
school. which is still preserved by the
Pennsylvania Historical society. In
November 1899. according to the an
nails of the American Philosophical So
city Of Philadelphia Robert Cornelius
obtained the first Photographic por-
trait Of human face known I'm the
world. Encouraged by his success
Cornelius devoted himself to perfectng
his art. He concentrated the light
upon his sitter by n series OF rcflectors
set up at different angles and used
blue glass to screen the light falling
directly upon the subject. He opened
n place for taking pictures by the
Daguerre method. his exposures aver

rainy or cloudy day. Many of the
Cornelius pictures are still IN existence
and present some fine characteristics

PHOTOGRAPHER.
At the beginning, photographs were
only for the rich. but now owing to
the development of Photographic sci

They have become 80 cheap that they
are used extensively for advertising

who make their own photographs,

Chinese BARRIERS In Hard Luck.

Barber shops were the exception,
rather than the rule, In China in the
lid days, itinerant BARRIERS attending
to their customers wants In the
streets or in the customers home.
There appears to be no tendency to-
ward the institution Of barber shops
since the change Of hairdressing; in
fact, the tendency locally is to do
away with the barber altogether. Thus
many families are purchasing hairclip-
pers, which seem to be regarded as the
only essential to haircutting.

saw what he took to be another dog

ping greedily to get this as well, he
let go the meat that he had and lost
It in the stream. AS a result his indi-
gestion felt much better all the rest
