 Perhaps there Is no sentence which could be quoted that illustrates more forcibly the advance made ih photography from the days when this process was described than the fol- lowing remark of Daguerre's." Miss Tyus said. "rhe time required to produce photographic copy of landscape is from seven to eight hours, but single monuments, when strongly lighted by the sun. or which re themselves very bright. can be taken in about three hours. The ratio of three hours to 1-25o of second is fair estimate of the progress made since Niepce. The Daguerrotypes were originally made on silver plated copper; then in 1889 we have the Fox Talbot process, described as "photogenic drawing" Paper was used in this method and so we come bumen, collodion, carbon tissue. etc. It reads like a fairy tale. these pie ture words from the little card photograph in the old-fashioned all bum of father in his first trousers to the wonderful lifelike 11x14 luminous sepia of the little son of today in a hand carved frame, designed to com plete the artistic effect.
