Hem.) "I bollovo photography to lo 11 ihio Bold for women. Tho trouble is tlio nverngo young girl In not willing to work. It reqttiri'fl pernisitcnt, earnest labor to becomo 11 good photographer," Biiiri Miss Catlmrinu Weed llarnes, editor of'PhoAinerienn Amateur Photographer ami 0110 of tho foremost nintituurn in thla country. Minn IJnrneH. who la a granddaughter of Thurlow Weed, has taken repeat el prizes for her work, anil last Hnnnner was in vited to address tho nniiunl convention of tho photographer of tho United King doin, which met in I'dlnburgh. This is tho llrst timo a woman has been po lion ored. Tho year before hIio wiih accorded a Bimilar distinction in being asked to sjieak boforo tho national professional photog rapher in convention at HuH'alo. CATIIAHINK Wr.r.I) HAU.ST.S. "I took up photography at first for the pleasure it afforded me. At the Bimio timo I determined to gain so pro ficient and practical a knowledgo that I could get my living by it if I were uver obliged to do so," said Miss Humes. "I remember the first camera I had. When it was sent home, I didn't know how to set it up, nnd I had to follow tho directions and experiment for about nn hour beforo I got it into shniio. Then I didn't know which end to look into. But I worked at it till I did. Now I havo 12 cameras ranging from a lens of -1 by 5 up to M by 17." , "But how could a young woman who , wished to inako n living find sale for , groups mich as you tuko'r" asked her vis- f iter. "Now, for instance, this charming peries of three pictures, tho well known 1 'Enoch Arden' groups, which called forth 80 much upi'lauso nt the Washington , convention I .it summer and would alon havo placed on in the front rank of ar tistic photographers. How could one who did even as lino work as that find a mar-, ket for it? When is it in demand?" "Firms who get up photogravure illus-, tratious for publishers and the publish-, crs themselves will buy such pictures. 1 "Hut thero are other ways by which a woman can earn her living at photog raphy. Before I speak of them, let mo first pay a word to the beginner. 1 "Photography is not easy work. The , ono who tells you m does not know nny-, tiling about it. Most easy work is bad 1 work. Of courso any ono can press u button and make n sua) shot. That p does very well for amusement, but wo ' nro speaking now of doing work for a . living. hen I began, I looked at every plato very carefully and tried to pick , out its faults. I got good judges to criti- ciso it and attempted to do better next 1 timo. Don't lie discouraged at repeated failures and don't excuho your poor work by laying it to tho lens. I have seen better work from a $10 lens thun I havo from a $100 ono. Of courso tho better tho materials tho better tho result. But ouo-half the success lies in tho handling of tho tools. "If yon intend to not about tho work seriously, go to a professional nnd get a position to do anything ho wishes to put you nt. Bo content to begin at tho bot tom of tho ladder, keep your eyes open, nbsorb nil you cnn. Don't try to push ahead until you nro cnpablo. Thorough ly twister tho rudimentary steps of de veloping and printing. If you aro an earnest worker, you will continually bo making new discoveries, which you can utilize to your own profit nnd tho benefit of others. "I beliovo women nro especially adapt ed to this field of work. A well known A W photographer onco told 1110 ho preferred ' to let into his darkroom women niwi teurs rather than men, as the women were more apt to cork tho bottles, turn off tho gas and water and leave things in good order when they had finished. They havo tho delicate touch, the artistio feel ing and tho capacity for taking pains. I "Hero are some suggestions for wom en who want to earn a living at photog raphy: I "Some women hnvo tho artistic in stinct for M)siug people so as to bring out their good points. Such a woman might get a good salary in a gallery for doing nothing else, or sho might unito .with a practical photographer and go Into tho business herself. Again, sho may havo a peculiar talent for arranging ' groups bo as to inako effectivo pictures. 1 Let her turn that talent into monoy by ! making a specialty of groups. Sho may 1 havo tho patience and tact to bo able to ' get exceptionally good pictures of chil I drcn. That pays well. I "In order to be the most successful at these things, sho should first bo a practi 1 cal plmtogruphi r, so that when anything is wrong with a plato she niav know win r I' 1 I." '1 1 s i 1 Miip s I'n pi I I I ''I I lit III. ' 1 r I . 1 ,t . I 1' 1 I t i I f X.' I I Ml It can inako a IiikuIhoiiio woman positively ugly, or, if nlnllftilly arranged, an ugly one almost beautiful. "Anolhersuggesllon, which I, believe, is u valuable one, is this: Let a woman who is 11 gold practical photographer go to 0110 of tho raisido or mountain resorts and put up u .shanty, oru tent lfnho can not do better. Hho can take lii'eresting bits of tho scenery for visitors to carry nwny with them. Sho can tako tho pco- do theinsulves posed artistically, us no tiucrnut tintypo man has yet done. Sho can poso her subjects on their fa vorito rocks, in their mountain paths or in their boats; perpetuate their pet bathing suits or natty mountain cos tumes. Hho can catch tho children dig ging in tho sand, and tho mothers would bo suro to buy tho pictures. "If she bus tho artistio talent to know when she has a good group or poso and the practical knowledge of de veloping her plato properly, I believo there is money for the enterprising young woman at summer resorts. "When she lives within easy distance of a park or promenade where nurses come with children, she can get many a pretty group to bo made Into n salable picttire. "I know two young women up in Maine who are making themselves rich just by their success in photographing children. "There is room in any of the largo cities for more such women who can make a specialty of taking babies. Let them set up their cameras in a neat, cozy little gallery and advertise that they will tako photograph of children for one week free of charge. If their work is very good, they won't need to adver tise any more their photographs will do tho rest. "In Chicago thero is a young woman who is an adept at posing people, and who also takes tho delicate, soft photo graphs which aro so like engravings. It didn't take actresses or society wom en very long to llnd this out, and she now has all she can do, at good prices too, "The artistio quality in a photograph will bring its price, and in this direction there is an unlimited Held for women." Amci: K. I via. WOMAN'S WORLD IN PARAGRAPHS. I'ont lradiinte M'olneli Nliidents at .Iiibni Hopkins Ciilxernlly. An institution of learning no linger honors women when it opens its doors to students of tho feminine sex. It honors itself. Tho noble Johns Hopkins univer sity at Baltimore has nt length thus done itself credit. Ten years ago a young lndy friend of my own, a college graduate and ono of tho most conscientious stu dents I over know, tried every known means to induce the Johns Hopkins fac ulty to admit her to ono of the post graduato courses. They refused with alacrity. Furthermore, they went out of their way to assure her tho day would never conio when women would sot foot within tho sacred gates of Johns Hopkins. My friend did tho next best thing. Sho swallowed her disappoint ment, went to Englnnd for tho instruc tion lier own country denied her and was obliged to put up with teaching from Profcstior Huxley, who had no prej udice at all against women students. Behold! In tho department of organio geology Miss Florence Bascom will next June receive from Johns Hopkins tho l degree of Ph. D, doctor of philosophy the highest a university can bestow. In December tho faculty of tho univer bity decided that the graduato depart- ttiitfitu ulirmtil l, ,,wttii,il vitfrivlnt'l t in women. Tho trustees guvo permission bo long ngo as lb77. Tho learned and conservative faculty hnvo ever since then been making up their minds to it. But they have yielded most gracefully at Inst nnd done honor to themselves and won tho gratitude of women whoso gratitude is of a kind that wafts him who earns it onward to nobler heights. American women need no longer leave their own country and go to tho universities of Pans and London and Jjitrich to complete their special studies. They can go to Johns Hopkins and to Yalo. Dr. G. II. Williams, head of tho department of geology nt Johns non kins, nnd Professor Griffin nro tho ones women must thank for bravo champion ship of their causo, for it was through tho efforts of theso two thnt tho happy chango was brought about. Tho under graduate courso will not nt present bo open to women, becauso thero nro al ready plenty of colleges whero they cnn obtain tho degreo of bachelor of arts. Miss Bascom obtained her preliminary I degreo nt tho University of Wisconsin ' in 1882. Later sho was inndo twister of nrts by the same institution, of which her father, Dr. John Bascom, was presi dent. A proud man that father must be! Mrs. Martin Footo Crowe is full pro fessor of English literature in tho mng nificent Chicago university. Professor Crowe is ono of tho most learned special ists of her timo in this department. From present indications tho scholars, preachers and col lego professors of tho 20th century will bo women. Early in the contest tho election of a Democratic senator in Kansas might have been predicted by one who watched tho signs. A dispatch from Topeka Raid, "A noticeable incident in tho strife was the conduct of tho Populist wouieu, 1 who crowded into tho statehouso ami ' urged tnemliers to stand firm and defeat tho Republican party at all hazard." Remember this mako your own tho ' power of tho purse. Then nnd not till then can yon stand on an equality with men. I Fraulein Heleno Lnngo has succeeded in waking up even Germany to tho ne cessity of a higher education for women. Sho was educated by a widower father ! with a family of brothers, and conso ( quwitly never knew tho soul killing con , ventionality which binds German wom en down with its iron bands.
