For Amateur Photographers.

Amateur photographers have been
aided by the Introduction Of sensi-
tized paper in both roll-spool and cut
sheet form Of all the important sizes,
which will fit any camera without
using special attachments. This pa
per Is used in the same manner as
are the celluloid film or dry plates,
and the picture Is printed directly
on the paper when the shutter Is op-
Grated, says Popular Mechanics Maga-
zine. After the exposures are made,
the rolls or sheets can be developed
in approximately ten minutes and
dried in a very short time also, as
the solutions and water used do not
penetrate deeply into the paper.

Cost of Shaves.

To the Editor. The Washington Herald:
The most vital question concerning
the working people of the country
today Is the "high cost OF everything.
The cost of everything began to as
cend several years ago and everybody
knows that there has been no reverse
action at any point. All reports of
government committees and newspa-
per editorials to the contrary notwith-
standing, every move made to come
back to normal finds expense and costs
just little bit more elevated.
To me this seems to be the apex
of folly and bad business. You can
not place your finger on any partic-
ular spot and say Here Is the pri-
mary cause" or Here is the place
to apply the remedy"-for when you
locate one source OF needless expense
you come in view of many more just
as bad or worse.
As a people of a great country We
have completely lost our heads and
are running away in an orgie of high
prices that are shameful, disgraceful
and criminal. 1 accuse the business
man as the leader in this mad, sense
less stampede.
Just for an illustration, take the
BARRIERS and the prices they charge
for their labor. A few weeks ago l
stepped into a barbershop on Pennsyl-
vania avenue and got a haircut and
shave. / was in the chair exactly
fourteen minutes and thirty-six sec
onds by a stop-watch. The bill was
so cents. That is equal to $40

Beauty and Utility.

THE New York, New Haven & Hartford Rail-
i road Co., has mixed sentiment with busi-
ness in delightful fashion. We refer to the prac-
tice of planting roses beside their tracks. From
the Grand Central Station in New York, through
the Connecticut mill towns to the Massachusetts
line, the rocky abutments this month covered
with of pink and red blossoms.
The purpose of these floral mats is not senti-
mental at all. Roses, the railroad executives have
learned, form the best antidote for erosion. They
prevent the earth and rocks slipping down over
the rails during heavy summer showers. What
ever the original intent. the flowers transform the
track sides into veritable fairyland.
Business men of New England seldom are
poets at heart. We suspect that most of them
despise roses secrety-that if briars would have
answered the purpose as we'll the railroad execu-
tives would have ordered their track crews to
plant them.
But Nature after all, is the greatest of artists.
Her artistic designs working out everywhere
despite the intentions of Where she is let
alone she produces solitudes of wild. sublime
beauty. Where she is nterfered with she calls
some of her natural laws to assist her. Here she
has foiled the unimaginative intent of hnancers
by showing the utility and profit of lovely things.
In the past, perhaps, the ugliest natural seen
cry in the world has been that Immediately ada
cent to railroad tracks. Bare rocks, scrub bushes
anu WITCH grass, with haroly blossom TO Dreak
the grayness, have been the order in all parts
of the country. Now, however, other railroad
lines likely to follow the practice of the New
Haven. In few years. it may be tracks all over
the United States will wind through continual
succession of gardens during the summer
months. Whenever the voyageur looks out the
window OF a speeding train objects of beauty will
meet his eye. The United States will become
known to travellers the land of everlasting
Some of the lines running out of Washington
would do we'll to follow the example of the New

II the BARRIERS would reduce the
price of haircut to IS cents and the
price of shave to 10 cents they
would make more money than they

more money out of my pocket, but
