The relative sensitiveness Of the
Photographic plate and the human eye
has been the subject of recent inter
esting experiments by Professor P. G.
Nutting, OF Rochester. An extra rapid
plate was used for the tests. A source
Of light that could be "dimmed" at
will and to any degree was placed
twenty feet away from the plate and
from the eye. The professor found
that light SO dim that 1t required
three hours to produce Just percep-
tible image on the extremely sensitive
plate was easily visible to the human
eye after resting the latter for three
minutes in total darkness. IN other
words" adds Professor Nutting, "an
image on the retina just visible after
partial adaptation to darkness would
just produce an image on a photo.
grapic plate after an exposure Of one
hour. The retina fully adapted to
darkness Ii still 4 thousand times
more sensitive thAA this."

"Stop!" cried Hugo, forcing his way
in front of Pilzer.
He was like no one of the Hugos OF

about details. They saw Hugo in q

Marta, who had observed the latter

the hall, knew that she should never
forget Hugo's face as he turned on Pill

a singing chord in her jangling nerves.
It was the voice of civilization, of one
who could think out of the orbit of a
