, Light, as is well known, is composed of seven primary col
ors: Violet, indigo, bine, green, yellow, orange and red tne
spectrum. Some .have greater chemical action than others.
These, the. bine, indigo and violet, called the actinic rays, are
the most irritating to the human eye. The photography, where
these rays are eliminated by means of a light screen or filter,
much better; definition is obtained, and consequently a more
perfect picture;". The eye is a camera in miniature. Its retina
is the sensitiisd plate of the camera and is a network of tiny
nerves called rods and cones. There are one hundred and thir
ty million of these rods aid seven million of the cones, all
wired to the brain through a cable (the optic nerve) no thicker
than a slate pencil. The eye opens, light rushes in and bathes
these rods and cones, they, in turn, telegraph the impressions
to the brain, and sight is the result. 1
