 Determine to take more care with your lens stops, your shutter speeds and your focusing. Decide that be- fore you take picture you will give thought to the light conditions; whether the day is hazy, dull or very dull; whether midday sun is shining from clear sky or the less intense early morning or late after noon sun; whether the light is in- creased by reflections from expanses of water or sand; whether your sub ject is in average shade or deep shade; whether under any of these conditions you are photographing nearby objects or a distant scene. Say you will consider these things each time and carefully adjust your camera to fit them.
 Make up your mind that you will think also about the composition of each picture. that it shall have merit because of its pictorial qualities and that in each scene showing human or other beings there shall be story. telling interest.

Waterbury Merchants
 Visit Furniture Mart
s. L. Oser, Walter Levin of Metropolitan Company
 Studying Trends in Style at Chicago Exposition

The home furnishings industry's fall models of 1887 will go on dis play at the American Furniture Mart, Chicago, on July sand among the thousands of buyers on hand for the event will be repre- sentatives of the Metropolitan Fur niture Company.
 "The Chicago market this sum- mer is too important for us to miss, !" S. L. Oser, manager, declared, style trends change fairly rapid ly, and trip to market is necessary to keep up-to-date with the latest developments, Then, too, the price trend is still upward and by getting our orders in early we expect to effect substantial savings that we can pass along to our customers"
 Those who will make the trip to Chicago are: s, Leon Oser and Wal ter Levin,
 10000 Expected
 According to word from the Fur niture Mart received here, more than 10000 buyers, from furniture and department stores in all 4S states and several foreign countries, are expected to attend the market between July and July IT. It is considered possible that last Jan- uary's record-breaking attendance of l0,413 buyers may be exceeded.
 At the Mart, which is the larg- est building in the world devoted to single industry, with almost D. 100000 square feet of space availa- ble for home furnishings displays, more than 800 manufacturers will have their fall lines ready for the inspection of the visiting buyers, The show is a wholesale market only, strictly closed to the public
 Check Displays
 The Waterbury men will spend ten days at the market, thoroughly checking the displays to find the lines best suited to the needs of families here, and offering the greatest values. The merchandise purchased at Chicago will be shown here throughout the coming season
 Special meetings of the National Retail Furniture Association and other furniture organizations will also be held at the Furniture Mart while the market Is in progress.

Mrs. Anderson closed her eyes and
shuddered ever so slightly as she saw
the scene in her imagination. Then
she Strengthened up, slipped her high
ball and lit a cigarette.
Suddenly babel Of voices was heard
in the street below Mrs. Anderson
jumped nervously to her feet and
glanced through the lattice work Of
the porch. 1t was over already. A
handful of Chinese were bearing a
lifeless FORM covered by long cloak,
toward the entrance of the Anderson
home. A moment later Tai Ling
ushered the excited group into the liv-
ing room. The body was stretched on
the couch.
Mrs. Anderson sank into a chair op-
posite the covered figure and stared at
it with morbid fascination. At last
she became conscious that Tai Ling
was thrlsting an envelope into her
hands.
For you. missy" he said. From
masters Office place. Boy leave just
now"
CHE reused from her trance and tore
open the envelope with shaking
fingers. Her husbands handwriting
met her incredulous eyes:
My dearest This is my last COM
munication to you. I have known
about you and Harry for long time.
I do not blame you; I haven't been
worthy of you, nor given you all you
deserve, and since you two love each

The color slowly drained from Mrs.
Anderson's face. With low cry she
rushed to the couch and threw back
the cloak; it was Harry, eyes staring
unseeingly, his revolver still clutched
in his right hand. Blood from the
fatal wound made a dark stain on his
linen coat
Mrs. Anderson stared with dull hor-
ror at her dead lover for several min
utes, then slowly wrested the revolver
from his stiffened fingers

ish sentiment and the fear to obey

laughed at her ready acceptance Of
Oriental fatalism; he himself was fond
OF quoting the proverbs and discussing
Confucius, but nevertheless continued
to hold strongly to sturdy, matter-of-
fact Western ideas.
Buck up. old girl" he said to her
recently. You're in another of those
black moods. China's done something
to you; we'll have to send you to the
States for a vacation soon"
Mrs Anderson smiled ironically at
the recollection. The poor fool A
vacation in the States was not what
the gods had Willed for her. The
tangled web of life had been spun for
tonight, the eve of changed world
She thought of Harry Durrance and
her love for him that had grown in
spite of her efforts to remain faithful
to her husband. She stirred restlessly
in her chair and sighed Harry! They
had been born to love each other;
neither Bentley nor the whole world
must stand between them. Durrance,
like her husband, had the mans atti-
tude of the Western world toward
such things. He cursed himself and
sometimes even her, for their love; he
shouldn't want another mans wife.
MRS. ANDERSON wondered if
sometime she should tell him of
how she had played this lone and
dangerous hand to bring them to-
gether. She decided not. Her mind
reviewed the arrangements she had
made with Tai Ling and his mysteri-
GUS friends from the Chinese under
world of Shanghai.
Bentley would be coming home in
his riksha in a few minutes now, she
thought as she glanced at her wrist
watch. There would be a small crowd
in the street. An English voice would
cry Help! Help! They're robbing mel"
Bentley, bold and impatient as al
ways, would jump from the riksha and
dash to the scene on foot He would
draw his revolver which he, like Harry
Durrance, always carried with him
through habit formed by many trips
in the dangerous interior country
If there was one place in the world
where white men hung together
firmly, unfailingly, it was in the Far
East. The sound of an English voice
In circumstances that indicated trou-
bic was a never-failing signal to any
fellow countryman within earshot to
rush to the scene. Certainly this
psychology didn't apply at home; just
as certainly it did apply in China.
