When the Team Comes Home.
The grandmothers are dying fast,
The aunts and uncles, too;
The epidemic's going to last
The entire summer through.
The bookkeeper gets powerful sick
Most every afternoon,
The office boy is mighty quick
To pipe up the same tune.
The ribbon clerk abruptly jumps
The job at p. m.
He says his kids have got the mumps
And he must go to them.
The easy and kindhearted boss
At first is left in doubt;
And finds that he is at loss
To figure the thing out.
He can't see why they all must go
In illness and in pain.
You see, as yet he doesn't know
The team is home again.
To the Cannery With These.
Spring garden seeds from Washing

Peg top trousers.
The gentlemen who claim that
their wives rife their trousers poe

Chatting dish suppers in your

Spaghetti that has garlic in It.
Barbershop tenor singers.
Blue derby hats.
Sure cures for falling hair.

Moving Pictures.

Gianni Betinni. an Italian inven-
tor, has recently perfected a new
device which makes it possible for
almost any amateur photographer
to make his own moving pictures.
Not only does the new mechanism
bring the cost within the means of
the average amateur, but the result
ing pictures are actually clearer and
sharper than those produced in the
ordinary way by the use of moving
film of celluloid.
In accomplishing these astonishing
results Bettini has exactly reversed
the principle of the usual moving
picture machine, in which the film
travels back of the lens from spool
to spool. His photographs are made
in series on glass plate, which is
held rigid, while the tense, itself,
moves.
The glass plates used in the Bet
TIM machine measure eight and one
half inches in length by five and one :
half inches in width. The photo
graphs taken in series on this plate
are only fve.sixteenths Of an inch
in width by one quarter inch in
depth. In this way sixteen consecu-
tive pictures appear in line and on
each plate there are thirty.six lines ,
making total of SIC images. The
photographs are taken at the rate
of twelve or morea second as the
tense travels to and fro.
The cost of plate of this kind is
four cents, while acelluloid film long
enough to carry the same number
of pictures costs $3.50. The Bettini
camera is sold for less than one
third as much as the reg ular moving
picture camera and it is also used.
| in connection with an ordinary stere-
opticon, for reproducing the pic
lures, thus saving further expense
for apparatus.
In the use of the Bettini reproduc-
ing apparatus one glass plate may
be instantly followed by another. SO
that series taking nine minutes
may be displayed without any inter-
ruption.
What the photograph has done to
bring music and song into the home.

do for the historic and interesting
scenes of the world.-From Moving
