As she passed[ toward' the flight of-

Inside; she asked the first question
everybody had been asking.
"What is the weather report?"
"It's bad," the answer came. "They-

Natalie strolled. back toward the

would it be better to keep away from

BEAUTIFUL FURNITURE'

Recently an organ that received a
bid of one dollar at an auction, sale'
was helcb by the family for sentimen-
tal reasons. It was given to Mr.
Grabb with: the request Clint some
pieces of . furniture be made from: it.
The organo cases were generally made
from choice woods and make beauti-
ful furniture..
When Mr:: Grabb's labors weue fin-
ished he had three beautiful pieces.

and a combined magazine and book

with the exception; of the legs for the

But if one deliberately declines to
enter the road which can take one to

one let himself be soured because he
never can hope for a million dollars'!
And if those of envious natures
want to see the rich share their mil-
lions, then they should find a kind of
joy when they- see the sons and daugh-
ters of the rich squandering the wealth
inherited by them, for squandering is
a kind of wealth -diffusion? What
makes these envious persons so peev-
ed is that no part of the squandered
wealth gets into their own pockets.
They find no happiness+in the reflec-
tion that the scattered wealth finds
its way into the pockets of a multi-
tude of others.

SNAPSJ-IOT CtJLI
Pictures, in the Looking -Grass
"Two•tn-one" pictures can be snapped with the aid of a mirror. Note that
the light comes from theleft onto faces of the children. In mirror pictures:
the light must be in front of the camera, but it must also be shaded so
as not to shine on the ions.
NAPPING back and front views
of a subject in one picture is a
novel idea, but 11 is one of the sim-
plest tricks
im-plest:tricks in photography. All ohs
needs is a mirror.
The subject sits or stands either
in front of the mirror or barely to
one side,. looking into the glass. The
person taking the picture stands
back at a point where the camera
finder shows both the back of the
subject and the reflection in the
mirror -and snaps the picture,
It is necessary, of course, to have
sufficient light, either daylight or
artificial. The light should come,
from one side, and fall upon the sub-
ject instead of on the mirror. Strong
light such as from an electric bulb
should not be allowed to strike the
camera lens, as 1t will, spoil the_pic-
ture.
The artificial light to use for snap-
shots is that from amateur floodlight
bulbs, but ordinary electric bulbs
will serve for time exposures. With
an ordinary 100 -watt bulb and a box
camera, loaded with supersensitive
film and opened to its largest lens
opening, an exposure of five seconds
will usually serve when the bulb is
three Peet from the subject. Snap•
shots _call 'for two of the large-sized
amateur flood bulbs in reflectors
three to four feet from the subject.
Most, amateurs prefer the snapshot
method because it does not require
the subject to remain still so long.
When a time exposure is made the
camera must be rested on a table or
other firm stand.
The subject in a mirror picture
should not stand too far from the
mirror, because that will make the
reflection too far away and tea
small.' Also, it may bring the subject
so close to the camera thathe is out
of focus. With a fixed -focus camera
which is not meant for use closer
than six feet, the subject's back
shouldbe nix feet from the lens
when the picture 15 made.
When using a focusing camera,
remember that the reflection lies
beyond the surface of the mirror.
For instance, if the subject is three
feet in front of the mirror, the re -
neaten is three feet on the other
side of the. mirror. Hence, with the
camera six feet from the mirror, the
worker would focus at nine feet. Or,
to get everything sharp,` he could
focus for six feet and use a very
