we wish to puotogrupl) u man inside a
bottle which will hold no'niore than n
pint of liquid. ' To accomplish this ap
parently impassible- feat proceed' as
follows: First photograph the .bottle
standing upon a. dull ,bln'k, support and
with similar background. .. .While fo
cuslug take care to mark oiit what will
bo the bottle's boundaries on the" plnte
by fixing Jittle pieces of gummed paper
to the ground glass screen of the. cam
era. Theu 'get your man to stand or
sit In a chair upon a black cloth with
a. smooth black curtain behind htm
Focus upon him so that he falls within
the boundaries of the bottle, this be
Ingl easily matinged by means of tUe
gummed, paper guides Finally expose
the plate which has already been usied
to photograph the libttle.J and wljen
this Is -developed your friend will dnlj
appear Inside. V , k
This methiid. will lie. found In prne
tlce to explain many pictures which nt
tlrst sVem very astonishing. To make
a "vision fake" arrange a little scene,
such ns a bare, room with an empty
hearth', witli your model sitting list
lessly in the foreground. Make your
first exposure on this scene, being care
ful to mark out on the ground glass
screen the space Into which the vision
must fall. . A dafk curtain or dark
woodwork should occupy this space
In the .first picture. Now procure a
sheet of dead black paper, mount it
evenly upon stiff card and with a little
Chinese white sketch out an approprl
ate ylslon. .
If you cannot dc this yourself get
an artist friend to help you, but see
that tlie sketch Is placed lu the correct
spot I. e., the spot which you have
urranged fot It to occupy In the finish
ed picture. When the sketch is finish
ed set It up before the camera, focus
and see that it falls within the renuh
ed boundary upon the screen. - Then
expose again the plate which has al
ready done duty aud if no miscalcula
tions have been made an interesting
"vision" picture will result .
The gbost "fake" may be made in
exactly the same way, only In tills
case on appropriate scene would be a
deserted churchyard, with your model
posing In an awestruck attitude be
side a tomb- In all photographs of
this kind the reader should bear in
mind that a dead black background
does not appreciably affect the sensl
tized plate, but a sbow plate should be
used "whenever this is possible, as by
this means any slight tendency to
"fog" will be obviated. Scientific

Tips For Tennis Players.
One of the faults of the Inexperi
enced doubles player which Is most
persistent is standing still. This In
one of those necessities In doubles that
are often overlooked. But no partner
can . do justice , to bis team unless
he moves after every shot to the cen
ter of the tingle of the return. In other
words, both men must constantly
change their positions, moving back
and forth toward oue side or tbe other,
according to where they have sent the
ball. If the net man has volleyed deep
into the right hand corner both play
ers move, across to the ' right. The
right hand player thereby protects the
shot down his own side line, and tbe
left hand player prhtects tbe cross
court shot down the central diagonal of
the court Outing. ,
: Lubricant For Aluminium.
Many machinists, especially those
employed in the motor engineering In
dustry, nre frequently called upon to
work In nlumiuium. To Satisfactorily
do this work various lubricants have
been tried, which, however, owing
toil
their volatility, are of little use. A
suitable lubricant is tallow or cob
bler's wax. This latter does not dis
solve quickly and consequently does
not flow as freely us the volatile oils.
