Bow It Affects Tbelr Plate and What
They Do to Escape It.
Among the many evils which are at
tributed to the all-pervading', never-to-be
escaped city dust, there is one which,
constitutes a grievance peculiar to pho
tographers alone. It is . the .injury
which the flying particles, sifting into
the room through every aperture, cause
to the delicate films and sensitive plates,
All films are made of preparations of
gelatin, and a large proportion of the
glass plates now used are also coated
with this substance, which, because of
its soft, sticky nature, is particu'larly
likely to attract every atom of dust in
the surrounding air,. The particles,
however small, leave their impress in
the form of opaque spots upon the sen
sitive surface and seriouslymar its per
fection. To remove the damage a great
amount of retouching is necessary,
which is not only laborious and tire
some, but which cannot always be sat
isfactorily accomplished if the dust is
very thick.. What is known as the "car
bon process" in photography is prob
ably more easily injured by dust than
any other, because an. extremely deli
cate film of gelatin is used. Chiefly on
account of this drawback the carbon
process is seldom employed in this coun
try, although photographs are made
which resemble the real carbon pic
tures so closely in color that they are
"carbon types." In England, where the
carbon process is more common, it has
become customary for London pho
tographers to send their developing
work out of town to be done, in order
to escape the dust and smoke of the city,
but this practice has not gained much
ground here.
The photographers in this city, as a
rule, perform their operations in the
same building in which their studios
are situated, and for the sake of thus
keeping the developing process at home,
they are obliged to be at great trouble
in protecting it. Some of the methods
employed for this purpose were men
tioned to a Tribune reporter the other
day by a well-known Broadway artist.
. "In the first place," he 6aid, "we not
only keep onr dark room itself, but the
whole top floor in which it is situated,
spotlessly clean. The floors are all
oiled until there is not a crack in their
surface to harbor dust-, and they are
thoroughly washed every morning be
fore we begin our day's work. All the
tables, trays, and everything we use are
kept equally clean. The windows, in
stead of being in the side walls, where
the wind would strike them and bear
the dust in with it, are in the roof, and
very little dust can come in that way.
All the cracks in the doors or around the
window frames are stopped up, and we
keej) the dark room tightly closed as
much of the time as possible. With
these precautions we manage to get
along pretty well, but a certain quanti
ty of dust seems bound to creep in, and
it causes us a good many hours of extra
work in retouching."
Practically the same struggle against
dust is the experience of every photog
rapher in the city. One remedy which
I has been tried occasionally with success
consists in filling the room in which the
plates are kept with steam for a few mo
ments each morning. This usually suf
fices to lay the dust Tor the entire day.

JS Farmer's Treasnred Geeae Take a
. .-' Notion to. Fly. ;
A Pawtuxe valley farmer, whose
farm is near the village of Crompton,
had a literal exemplirication a lew
lays ago of the old adage which says
that, "lHebes take lfiito themselves
wings and fly away," says the Provi
dence Journal. Something over a year
ago he and his son tired ut a flock of
wild geese that flew over his farm and
managed "to bring dov.'n nearly . two
score of them. About 13 of the. birds
were only wounded, and, surviving the
shooting, were so carefully kept that in
a year their captors had succeeded by
judicious breeding jn increasing the
stock. to over 70 geese and goslings.
They were kept in a pen that was cov
ered with wire netting, and seemed to
have become thoroughly domesticated
and satisfied with their surroundings.
One day lately the farmer, wishing
to let them feast awhile on the tender
blades of grass that were sprouting in
an adjoining field, opened the coop and
let the. strange flock into the pasture.
green and new. And this is where he
made a mistake. The half-wild ganders,,
geese and goslings reveled for awhile
amid the verdant grass and new-found
freedom, but never made an effort to
rise above mundane things, and the
experiment wars voted, a success by the
owners of the f.oek. They congratulat
ed themselves too soon however, for
later in the day there came winding
over the Coventry hills, high in air, a
snaky black line from which there
floated down into that Crompton farm
er's pasture the "henk, honk" of the
wild goose, a sound familiar to sports
men, which it seems the half-wild-geese
in the verdant meadtow also understood.
Without waiting to bid' their owner
goodby, with one accord the ganders,
geese and goslings arose on new-found
wings to join their free feJlows near the
cloutls,' and before the farmer . knew
what had happened' they, were out of
gunshot, following the black trail to
ward the southeastern horizon.

JOBS OF CHEMISTS.
The Queer Claaa of Patrons liat They
Have to Serve. .
Chemists sometimes have queer ex
periences. The following facts, says-
the Chicago Journal, were told by
a professor : in one of the western
universities: "For about ten years
I have made a specialty of examining
and reporting upon cases of real or sus
pected poisoning. As a number of my
cases have been connected with murder
trials, I have had considerable notice
in the daily papers. This reputation
for making analyses for poisons has
brought me a queer class of patrons,
"Every year I have one or more old
men come to me with samples of food
to be examined for poison. These men,
without exception, have married young
wives, and when the husband is taken
sick and does not recover as quickly as
he thinks he should, he begins to sus
pect that his young wife wants to get
rid of him, and is poisoning him grad
ually through the medium of his food,
Of course he does not want his wife to
know of his suspicions, and he quietly
gets a sample of the food he suspects,
and at some unusual hour for work,
generally either early in the morning
or very late in the evening, he comes to
rue and tells me verv secretly that he
wishes to have an examination for poi
son made.
".Now, the odd part is that, though I
have made a number of such analyses,
I have never found poison present in
any case. Then the husband is very
much afraid that his wife will find out
that he suspects her, and he gets out
of my laboratory in the quickest and
quietest manner- possible. So every
year I expect to see some elderiy man
coming apprehensively up my office
Ft airs with a well-concealed sample of
food about him to (be examined for poi
son. Every year he comes, every year
I make my analysis and find no poison,
and every year the old gentleman gets
information that he considers pheap at
the price.'" '

A recnt number of the Australian
Medical Gazette contains a brief but
instructive report of the cure of a ease
of hallucinatory disorder. The patient,
a man aged CO years, had suifered for
two years from subjective visual sensa
tions not a day passed that he did not
6ee a large number of spectral human
figures, and believing himself to be
haunted by ghosts he had become very
despondent and melancholy. On seek
ing medical advice it was found that
he had senile cataract. When ihis was
removed by operation the g-hosts fled
and the man recovered his usual health.
In this oonneetion we may cite the ease
of a tradesman in Berlin whose shop
was haunted by apparitions resembling,
in appearance some of his deceased cus
tomers. He was an intelligent man,
aware that he suffered from sensory
hallucination, and made notes of ' his
subjective impressions. In due time he
submitted his eyes to examination and
operation, With the result of a restora
tion of normal vision and the immedi
ate. and final disappearance of his in
tangible visitors. The obvious teach
ing of the foregoing and similar cases is
that in these modern days the person to
be resorted to for the exorcism of spir
its and demons is the opthalmic Bur
geon, ' ' . . - . , .
