The dark appearance on the screen corresponding to the thinnest part of the film is probably due to refraction of the ray of light reflected from the second surface, consequent in its passing from a rare into a denser medium, and again from the denser medium into the rare, which refraction Lord Rayleigh considers to effect a retardation equivalent to half a wave length.

It was so smooth and unruffled that it seemed stationary, like a film of glass, but, after striking the stones below, it broke into foam, whirlpools and eddies, which helped to form as lovely and picturesque a scene as the most devoted lover of nature could long to see. The picture was so pretty indeed that the boys stood for several minutes lost in admiration.

Christ is the Life, and, therefore, Christ is the Resurrection, and the thing that we call death is but a film which spreads on the surface, but has no power to penetrate into the depths of the relationship between us and Him.

"If so, where is he?" Renine pricked up his ears. Repeated blows of the axe were sounding from some distance, no doubt coming from a part of the forest that was being cleared. "He?" said Renine, "I wonder whether he may not have continued to behave under the influence of the film and whether the man of the woods in The Happy Princess has not quite naturally resumed his calling.

If you purchase from one of these trusts, you cannot get films from the others, for that is their edict. Therefore you will have only about one-third of the films made to select from." "I thought money would buy anything in the way of merchandise," said Louise, half laughing and half indignant. "Not from these film dictators," was the reply.

As she poured in the next dipper-load, the film of water touched the rim of the sieve at one point. Commodus heard a sharp intake of Brinnaria's breath. The next half-ladleful she poured near the spot where the water touched the sieve-rim. Round near the hoop she dribbled in half-ladleful after half-ladleful until the web of the sieve was entirely covered.

Talk had begun to reach him, and he said to himself to-night as he saw her that Isaac Costrell's wife was going to ruin. The thought oppressed him, pricked his pastoral conscience. Isaac was his right-hand man: dull to all the rest of the world, but not dull to the minister. With Mr. Drew sometimes he would break into talk of religion, and the man's dark eyes would lose their film.

Capitola set the stand in its corner and then removed her own armchair to its place before the dressing bureau. Nothing now remained upon the rug except Black Donald seated in the armchair! Capitola paused; her blood seemed freezing in her veins; her heart beat thickly; her throat was choked; her head full nearly to bursting, and her eyes were veiled by a blinding film.

To Ruth's surprise the manager of the house showed "Curiosity" first, and when she saw her name emblazoned under the title of the one-reel film, Ruth Fielding had a distinct shock. It was a joyful feeling that shook her, however. As never before she realized that she had really accomplished something in the world. She had earned money with her brains!

And even those who select this volume as their first venture in becoming acquainted with our heroines must well know how the film pictures look from the front of the screen. To the uninitiated I might say that in making picture plays a company, somewhat like a regular theatrical organization, is gotten together.
