Gre Berti VOLUME 582... ..c0eeeee BEAUTY AND THE CAMERA. T was rather a foolish thing to say, so they put it off| on a German photographer, supposed to be faring weat- ward to attend the annual | convention of the American Photographers’ Association | at St. Paul. “American | women are the most beau-| tiful of all women,” it is} asserted, “but the world is) not aware of the fact, be- | cause they don’t know how | to pose for their photo-| graphs.” Whether there) be truth or not in this statement, the question raised is of pertinent interest. b The present is the photographic age. The camera is in universal tee, and in the art of portraiture has won deservedly high recognition. Its effectiveness, however, is a matter of artificiality rather than of art. Its greatest triumphs are necessarily in creating @ semblance of beauty where the real thing does not noticeably exist, not in dem- opstrating to the world the full-blown beauty which Nature has made obvious and inimitable, As for posing, it‘is the photographer’s business to study that. 1¢ is up to him to find out where the true picture is, in the study of fn beautiful woman. She doesn’t know—and the more she poses, if she is allowed to follow her own fancy, the furtlHfer she gets away from it. The head and the costume are all she thinks about, whereas her chiefest charm may be in her figure, her lines of move- ment, her arms and hands, and as likely as not these are concealed or falsified by the gown she wears, Tere is where the art of the cam- era has a struggle for life against that of the modiste. The art of posing—not that of being posed—is vastly responsible, in one sense, toward beauty. If the artist-photographer by skilful manipulation, can demonstrate pictorially that nothing but grace and beauty comes within his focus when he is portraying the gentler | sex, then the general store of feminine loveliness is augmented and enriched. What the world gets in the habit of looking for it usually seen, “Nature is always imitating art, you know,” Whistler was wont to remark. The paradox is an inverted truth, after all, for to the average worldly eye it is only after art has disclosed the true beau- ties of nature that these begin to be apparent to the average unso- phisticated observer. For aesthetic purposes, what looks so, it, IS so, as we have learned to see + CABLE CODES. ABLE CODES for tourist consumption are in full sei son, and this year’s crop bountiful, though rather tart and dry. The fruit ia familiar to all transatlantic travellers, their families and friends. It is a little book filled with nothing but words alphabetically a ranged, but no relation at | all to the dictionary. Every little cipher has a meaning of its own, and will save you | many dollare in cabling | home for more, provided you have arranged with your correspondent | io use the same code. ‘Thus, the brief symbol G-I-N-K, costing only a quarter to flash over from Paris or London, may convey home a mes- sage to tho effect that you left your letter of credit locked in the upper left-hand drawer of the writing desk, the key to which may be duplicate’ by Smith the locksmith, whose former address is to be found in last r's telephone directory. See what a saving is here!—unloss they should decipher you by some other code, in which perchance your little word “gink” means “Option will expire next weeks at 2 o'clock.” Iways a question whether the code-compiler is joking, or It is al in dead practical earnest. Evidently there is sad irony in his making | “sadiron” stand for “Where wil! a letter soonest reach you?” and a prophetic spirit in “sausage” for “Dog not allowed to land.” One | dollar is appropriately symbolized by “sunbird,” $10 by “sunrise,” and $10,0°O by “tanager,” a gorgeovs scarlet bird rarely glimpsed. | “Sea Robber” to designate a certain steamship line ie all right, too. | Rut when it comes to “stretibus” for “Many happy returns of the day,” such cabalistic terms as “tigerwolf,” “toxiguemos” and “tosso- | ‘oeo,” all involving complicated transactions in commerce and finance, ve are impressed with the wonders of language, and warned to weigh our words, leanne. iN .

NJAMIN GOLDFINCH looked on life “through . rose-colored glasses.” He was well off, and he might have been very rich fa deed had he not given money right and left to every one whe told him a hard-luck story. His pretty wife and Percy, his son. 4id what they could to check his impulse to help unworthy people. But it: was of no use. And they loved him the better for his generosity and Ms simple, childlike trust in his fellow-men. Gregory, his brother, was Benjamin's exact opposite. Gregory was & wealthy Sheffield merchant who never spent a penny when he could avoid it, and who interrupted all tales of misfortune by saying roughly: “Be off! I've heard that story before!” Whenever he heard of some unfortunate, person he would sneer: know him. He comes from Sheffield.” Gregory had turned his only son, Dick, out of doore when the boy was twenty-one, and had bidden him make his own way in life. Dick had gone to London, where he ran deep into debt and almost starved. Gregory had no pa-- tlence with his brother's kindliness. He warned Benjamin again and again that: all objects of charity were unworthy. Benjamin received « begging letter one day from @ man who wrote that he was out of work, that he had a blind father, a paralyzed mother, a dying wife and @ starving child. This pathetic plea almost moved Benjamin to tear ‘about to send the suppliant a large sum of money when Gregory said: that fathor and mother and dying wife They all come from SheMeld. I'll bet you what you like the whole thing is a pack of trumped-up les, We'll go there and investigate,” ~ They went to the address given in the letter. There they found the blind father and paralyzed mother and all the other {nvalids were imaginary. The man wno had written the appeal was having a carouse with a party of friends In the shock of thia discovery Benjamin started back so suddenly that his spectacles fell off and were broken. Gregory, chuckling over the winning of his bet, lent Benjamin his own spectacles. And Benjamin henceforth began to se life through his brother's @: Returning home he began to look for the evil In human nature ar eagerly am he had looked for the good. He announced that he had become a cynic and a mercilessly keen reader of character. He decided that every one nad been sponr- ing on him and that there was not an ounce of disinterested goodness in the wor In vain did Lucy Lorimer, who was engaged to Perey, urge Benja to keen on doing good for the sake of good, in spite of other people's bad motives ond ingratitude, Evety morning after breakfast,” said she, “I throw crumbs to the sparrows, ‘They never thank me. When they have had enough they fly a except som” Breedy one which sometimes pecks at me, But I don’t want r thanks. They They are God's creatures, and God gives the crumbs I have mine. Whatever happens let us go on feeding An Odd Test of Humar. Nature. You have your sparrows them.” But Benjamin quickly forgot this ittle sermon. With all his gentle strenct’s he was trying to model his character upon Gregory's. He decided that Lucy's father, Mr. Lorimer, was urging the match between his daughter and Percy fo mercenary reasons, He decided that his nephew, Dick, whom he had so often befriended, was an unprincipled scoundrel. He declared that C aon, hist banker, was a crook. He was certain his servants were cheating him. And he became sure that his wife was keeping another man's love-letters in her desk Altogether the poor old gentleman worked himself into @ delightful state of sus~ picton and misery. When a report spread that Crewdson had decamped with all the bank’ thus tmpoverishing him, Peopled with blackguards. He set out to expose them all. First, h his wife and sternly demanded that she give up the packet of tove-! that whe treasured in her desk. Wondering, she obeyed. Benjamin furlously tore open the packet. It contained his own old love-letters to her, written during théim engagement. Before he could recover from this surprise Lorimer burst into the room, Having heara that Benjamin was ruined, he had come to place his wnote fortune at his old friend's disposal. Next, the news of financtal disaster spreading through the house, the servants came to offer Ben- Dick hurried in, and Inststed on giving his uncle the only valuable possession he could boast—a diamond pin. Then Gregory appeared. Ie, too, had heard of Benjamin's ruin, and at once offered him a half interest in his own great business. Every one clamored for the privilege of helping the lovable philanthropist in his hour of poverty. To cap the ollmax, as Benjamin was still gasping at this revelation of his fel- “And I'll get laughed at by everybody, for I introduced them!
