Taking of Pictures Entailed Terrible

The coming of Dante Alichierrs
"Inferno" in film form to the Arcade
theatre next Saturday and Sunday
will show1 a marvelous piece of
ptcturedom.
When the Idea of reproducing the
story Dante's "Inferno" was first
suggested It met with a storm of ob
jections and criticisms. It was point
ed out that such a task would cost
enormous sums of money, that thera
ware only half a dozen artists living
to whom th.9 principal parts in tho
production could be safely entrusted,
that many of the scenes in Dante'i
'Unferno" required animals, such as a
panther, a. lion ,a wolf, serpents, etc
that It would be Impossible to show
in pictures the difficulties of the de
scending from one . pit Into another
and, that such things as frozen lakes,
ponds of boiling pluh, or such imag
es as that of Cerberus, or the demons.
or the giants, or Lucifer, were utter
ly, beyond the possibilities of human
art. Nevertheless, the small band of
artists who were inspired by a wish
to bring the charms and beauties of
1 Dante home to the great masses, un-
dertook the work and kept at it with
a patience and perservance which
.could not be discouraged. After many
, failures and after months had bean
spent In this endeavor two or three

j John Gardner was down on bis Jack.
De bad been well bora and well edu
cated. Then vue misfortune after AD
'other came opon him and Ibe family
;to which be belonged just as be wus
ready to make a start in life, and
threw bim, so to speak, on bis beam
ends. Ete went about applying for a
position, but since be bad bad no ex
perience in any department of busi
ness be received no better offer than
to solicit orders for a patent gas
burner. -Gardner,
who bad not yet worn out
. bis good clothes and was afraid of
(meeting some of bis old friends who
I would know what be wus doing, kept
bis samples down lo the bottom f
his pocket Be bad sufficient pluck,
however, to drag himself, from cue
bouse to another. . and . whenever be
was received by any one wbom be was
sure be bad never seen before would
produce a gas burner and proceed to
expatiate. on what a wonderful light
it would make and bow tittle gas
would be burned.
One morning be rang the bell of a
residence, and tbe door was opened by
a young girl. De didn't mind solicit
ing of old women, oil men or serv
ants, but girls troubled blm. Be was
about to ask if some one be was try
ing to find lived there, but cbanged bis
'mind, concluding that as short a way
as any to make an excuse to go ou
would be to produre a sample. The
girl would say she bad no use for it
and that would eud tbe matter.
"1 am canvassing' for a putent gas
burner." be began, when tbe girl,
much to his surprise, said. "Step in'
side." Lie did so, and she led the way
to a drawing room. ' Then, asking bim
to be seated, she waited for bim to
proceed- with bis harangue. There
was nothing left for. bim but to do so.
"This gas burner," be said, "la ar
ranged to sepurate tbe gas into mi
nute streams, so that It will mingle
freely with the oxygen of tbe air. pro
ducing a brilliant light and consum
ing a minimum of gas. Instead of the
enormous gas bills run up by using tbe
ordinary form of burner, tbe consumer
finds himself or herself Indebted to the
company for a bagatelle."
"Are you quite sure," interrupted the
girl, 'that tbe company will not at tbe
end of the month be Indebted to the
consumer?" v i
Gardner looked at ber with a con
strained smile, but. seeing no sign of
pleasantry and scarcely knowing what
be was saying, staggered on,
"We scarcely claim that for it, but
we are willing to guarantee that the
monthly gas bills will be reduced by
50 per cent of what they are when the
ordinary burner Is u.ned."
"At , what price do you sell yoar
burners'"
"At 10 cents each."
"1 will1 take a hundred of themv 1
suppose you will put tbem on for me."
