'The dollar is, as our readers know, equal to four shillings and sixpence ; we do not enter into the question of the rate of exchange or the relative value of gold and greenbacks. A cor respondent of the same Journal remarks :—-“ I believe there are many who grumble at low prices, who have no right to work a camera at all, and who would do better to first take your Journal and study it and the examples in it, and make their work worthy of a good price before they complain. It is my experience that the better work I do the more I can ask for it. If my fellow artists will strive to improve their work, good prices will surely follow, and only those who do badly will have cause to complain.” THE MAGIC LANTERN AND PHOTOGRAPHY. BY JAMES MARTIN. No. 3. Holders may contain- a series of circles, the number being according to their length. Take a piece of wood, planed up, of the length, breadth, and thickness required; make a pen cil line right along its centre; on this line mark off a space of half an inch from one end, then the width required for the diameter of the picture, then another space of half an inch, and repeat until the proposed number of circles and spaces are registered, taking care to have an half-inch space at each end. Having set your circular guage to the semi-diameter of the circle required, thrust the bradawl point into the long line at the proper place, mark out the circles, cut out the spaces with the keyhole saw, then, having marked off two pieces of veneer on the same plan, proceed to finish the back and front, making the same allowance for the rebate as for a single circle. Oval openings would look well for portraits, and be a novelty. The picture need not be cut to that shape, as the receptacle behind may be square. There is one more holder that is easily made ; it is merely an oblong frame, having a groove round its inside face to receive the picture. The groove may be formed by a wide saw cut, or by cutting its sides with a cutting guage and then taking out the centre strip by a small chisel; this is best done in one long piece before attempting to put the frame together; one side of the groove must be thin, that the pic ture may be placed as near as possible to the condenser. The proportions of the frame are governed by the size of the lantern and the picture to be fixed in it; its principle is like thot of a boy’s slate frame, and the corners may be put together after that plan. There are also the double action rotating holder for chromatropes, the single-action ditto for showing smoke, moving clouds, mill sails, &c., with brass rack-and-pinion action, but can be made of wood on the principle of cord and pulley. To make these would require a skilled mechanic, well versed in the use of the lathe, and hard and well-seasoned wood. Lastly, there is the lever slide holder, with rim and handle of brass. Now supposing that the transparencies have been made of proper size, clear, bright, and without blemish, and the holders ready to receive them, we will proceed to prepare to colour them. For this purpose I will describe the proper instruments and colours, and how to use them. The glass easel, as being the sine qua non, I will speak of first. To I make it, hinge together two frames about fourteen inches I square, one inch and a half wide, and half an inch thick ; now consider its hinged side the bottom side. Hinge also two supports same width and thickness as the frame, six inches long, one to each of the two sides of one frame on its face, so that when it is raised at the end opposite the hinges the supports will rest upon the lower one ; cut a rack in that, to prevent the supports slipping, place a piece of glass of sufficient size to cover the frame before it, and the easel is made. It is, however, as well to add a movable bar in its front, for the purpose of raising or lowering the glass as required; therefore bore a row of holes along the centre of the two side fronts of the frame to be raised by the supports, opposite each other, make a slight bar of wood of sufficient length to reach across the frame, having a hole at each end so bored as to come opposite to the poles on each side the frame ; now, having two brass pins, place the bar across the frame at such a height as may be convenient, thrust them through the holes of the bar and into corresponding holes in the sides of the frame, and fix the bar tightly on; rest your plate of glass in it, and against the frame, having first raised it to a convenient angle for painting upon. The next requisites are a glass slab and muller (its face to be unground); a sheet of white paper ; a clean rag ; a few small, clean, dry glass bottles with corks; some camel-hair or sable pencils of various sizes, fixed on sticks; a small T square (which will be more useful provided it has a bevel, working on the crosspiece by a screw in a collar) ; apen-knife havinga lancet-shaped point; a small palette-knife ; a few pieces of glass one-sixth size ; a small straightedge, to rule lines by; amahl stick (which is only a light stickor cane of sufficient strength to rest the arm upon, to steady the hand whilst painting) ; also a dabber or two, made thus,—cut out a piece of an old kid glove where there are no stitches, put sufficient cotton-wool into to make it look (when tied up) like a ball, about as big as a boy’s marble, having a little handle, or perhaps more like an artist’s bladder of oil colour; a paper stump, a few common sewing needles of various sizes, fixed in small handles—broken ones will do—using the pointed ends to work with on your painting. If circles are to be painted, an oblong holder should he made of mahogany about one-eighth of an inch thick by an inch and a quarter wide; its extreme length may be seven inches and a half and five inches and a quarter in width; its outer angles must be truly square; the inside measure will be five inches by two inches and three-quarters. Now cut away the sides of the inside space equally, so that they may form a diagonal one of four inches by two inches and three-quarters, the bottom and top remaining uncut. Supposing it finished, place it flat on the table, place a circle in the larger end, push it smartly towards the lesser end ; now raise up the whole together, and you will find that it can be handled in any way without danger of the circle falling out. With the T square placed on its outer edge, as required, upright or horizonal lines can be drawn with the greatest truth at any part of the circle; and with a bevel, diagonal lines also. The size of the holder as now given is intended for circles about three inches and a half diameter ; for larger or smaller ones, the inside dimensions must be altered accordingly. 114, High Street, Ilfracombe, North Devon.
