It was, however, based on the only feasible principle which, as it seems to the writer, will not result in doubt and confusion. Now that photography has come to the assistance of the observer, Mr. Birt's proposal, if confined within narrower limits, would be far less arduous an undertaking than before, and might be easily carried out.
The application of photography has been so extended that, in some important branches of astronomical work, the observer simply photographs the phenomenon which he is to study, and then makes his observation on the developed negative.
And it is devoutly to be hoped that science will perfect a method of colour photography finally to dispel this illusion. What, then, will serve as a working definition? There must be something about feeling, the expression of that individuality the secret of which everyone carries in himself; the expression of that ego that perceives and is moved by the phenomena of life around us.
An attempt to throw additional light upon Charles Darwin's theory of Natural Selection. Was entertained at dinner by the Municipio of Varallo-Sesia on the Sacro Monte. Took up photography. Ex Voto: an account of the Sacro Monte or New Jerusalem at Varallo-Sesia, with some notice of Tabachetti's remaining work at Crea and illustrations from photographs by the author: MS. at Varallo-Sesia.
"Why don't you go to bed now, too?" asked Tom, when they had finished talking about animal photography. "You need the rest, I know, Ralph." "I'm going, in a few minutes, just as soon as I finish this letter. Trot along, boys!" "Well, good night," grunted Arthur, as he disappeared into his room. "Good night." "Don't be too long at it, Ralph." "No, I won't. Good night, old top."
I thought of the assistant's fondness for photography, and his trick of vanishing into the cellar. The cellar! There was the end of this tangled clue. Then I made inquiries as to this mysterious assistant and found that I had to deal with one of the coolest and most daring criminals in London. He was doing something in the cellar something which took many hours a day for months on end.
On Friday, they had written to inquire about Claudine's past life; it was now Monday, and no reply had arrived. And yet photography was in existence, and the electric telegraph. They had at their service a thousand means, formerly unknown; and they made no use of them. "Every one," said the magistrate, "believed her a widow. She herself pretended to be one."
It is true also that outside the Circus and the Fat Sisters and Battling Edwardes there were flaming pictures with reds and yellows thrown about like temperance tracts, but the modern figures in these pictures spoilt the colour, the photography spoilt it too much reality where there should have been mystery, too much mystery where realism was needed.
There is, for example, the power of steam, and photography and the phonograph, and wireless telegraphy, and advances in mathematics: each and every one of these was once a mystery, a closely guarded secret, yet the human spirit unravelled these secrets and brought them out of the invisible into the light of day.
"By all means," was the cry. "We will build her a bower somewhere near the photography." "I am only afraid," added Jane, "of her offering to do palmistry. Do you know, I dabbled a little in that once, and I came to the conclusion that it was not a safe study for oneself or any one else." "Quite right," said Geraldine. "Do you believe in it then?"
