Bloreri Valuable Hint for
Camera Fnthaslaat a.
Since that memorable day when Daguerre
succeeded In fixing upon a sensitized plate
the image projected by the lens, color
photography has been the Ultima Thule of
camera workers, but, like those elusive
visions of the chemists of old, the transmu
tations of the baser metals into gold and
the elixir of perpetual youth, the pho
tography of objects In their natural color
was until recently regarded by physicists
as "the baseless fabric of a vision."
During the last few years, however, the
rapid advance that oldest students of color
photography made brought them far nearer
to the goal and removed their chosen pur
suit from the physicists' list of hopeless
chimeras, until today the toy of the
scientist in his laboratory has grown to
be an important factor In our commercial
dally life.
Photography in colors is based upon the
axiom of optics that all the myriad colors
on nature's palette may be split up or
analyzed into three primary color sensa
tions, namely, red, yellow and blue, and
its corollary that each and very one of
these radiant hues may in turn be built up
by synthesis from two or more of the pri
mary colors.
Divisions of the Problem.
All attempts toward solving this Interest
ing problem naturally divide themselves
Into two classes. In the one class we find
those experimenters whs prepared light,
sensitive surfaces which retained the color
of the light under which they were ex
posed. This is termed the direct method.
In the other, or Indirect, method the pho
togrsphic pictures on tho films are colored
and superimposed to obtain the desired re
sult. The earliest experimenters In direct color
photography were Becquertl, Beebcek and
Poltovln, who used silver proto-chlorlde.
linker. In 1868. by his theory of stationary
light waves, explained the production of
these colors, which hypothesis was con
clusively demonstrated by Llppmann In his
brilliant experiments in 18!I. Later inves
tigators, among whom are Worel, Neu
hauss, Lumlere, Valenta, Krone and
Szczepanlk, greatly Improved this direct
method, but the difficulty of producing per
fect results has thus far prevented It from
being a commercial success.
The second, or Indirect, method may
again be divided into two groups: First,
the making of colored pictures upon some
transparent media and combining the same,
and, second, the printing of three pictures,
red, blue and yellow, one over the other,
to produce a colored print. The modern
lantern slides, of which Lumiere'a splendid
examples aro well known, are the result ot
the first process. The three-color print of
today exemplifies the second method, which,
dating back to I860, was perfected by the
labors of Vogel, Albert and Koenig and
by them Introduced to the commercial
world.
lee of Filters.
For the analysis of the Image by tha
photographic lens Into the three primary
colors color screens (or light filters) aro
used, consisting of thin glass -plate's coated
with colored gelatine or collodion, or tanks
of glass filled with colored liquid. If. for
Instance, a blue light filter Is Introduced
Into the path of the rays of light which
produce the Image on the sensitive plates
all the rays, with the exception of the yel
low, are allowed to pass, and therefore all
the rays of light, with the exception of
the yellow, will produce an Image on the
plate. In the negative, therefore, the yel
low parts of the object, and those which
contain yellow mixed with the other pri
mary colors, will appeal' more or less clear.
If this negative Is n'.w printed, using a
yellow pigment, the yellow partial Image
is obtained which reproduces only the yel
low parts of the original. In order to ob
tain the red and the blue partial Images
a similar method is adopted. A green filter
Is Interposed which absorbs the red rays
nd the negative obtained is copied In red
color. Finally an orange red filter is In
terposed during the exposure, which ab
sorbs the blue, and the negative copied with
blue color. By combining the partial
Images a picture Is obtained which ex
actly reproduces all the colors of the
original.
This, In brief. Is the ordinary commercial
process known as "three color work." A
further Improvement Is the addition of a
fourth plate, made by the half tone proc
ess, printing black. In addition to the val
low, red and blue, and thus enriching the
shadows and accentuating the high lights.
The most Interesting of recent develop
ments In color photography is the work of
Dr. E. Koenig of the Farbewerke, vormals
Meister, Lucius & Bruning of Hoechst-on
Main, Germany, whose process is called
plnatype. This eminent chemist was the
discoverer also of the process known as
plnachromle. In plnachromle three collo
dion films are successively superimposed
and colored by the action of light on ur
tain sensitive chemical preparations with
which the films are coated, thus making a
true colored photograph. In plnatype, on
the contrary, a single gelatine film la so
treated that a succession of paper prints
may be obtained from the colored plate
as often as desired. This makes plnatype
specially adapted to three color work.
How Plnatypea Are Made.
If a bichromate plate be exposed to light
under a photographic cliche the gelatine Is
hardened at those parts exposed to the
action of the light and loses its solubility
In water to a greater or less extent. If
the undecomposed bichromate still con
t&lned In the gelatine layer Is then re
moved by washing a picture Is obtained
only visible to a very slight extent, con
slstlng of hardened snd unhardened gela
tine.
Plnatype dyes have, however, the prop'
erty of dyeing the unhardened gelatine
very strongly, whereas the hardened por
tions are either not at all or very slightly
colored. If moist paper coated with spe
cially prepared gelatine is now brough
Into intimate contact with the gelatine
layer colored by means of a plnatype dye
In a short time a colored paper picture
with all the half tones, is obtained, which
appesrs most strongly colored on those
parts not affected by light, while the most
exposed parts remain white. From this it
is evident thst In order to obtain a posi
tive picture the bichromate gelatine layer
roust be exposed under a dlaposltive.
Th. facility with which enlarged copies
can be made is especially important for
three-color photography, as the direct pro
duction of large-sized plates In three col
ors offers many technical difficulties.
By this process the negatives can be en
larged direct, and thereby all the details
are much better preserved than when an
enlarged negative has to be prepared from
the original negative.
Proeese at Preparation.
The print plates for plnatype, which arj
not sensitive to light, are steeped with the
film wid uppermost for three or four min
utes In tha following sensitizing solution
in shaded daylight or lamplight:
Two grams of chroma salt is either dis
solved In a litt'e hot water and than dt-
lluUd VU PSaa saMsg 4 Saa aji a an-
tire quantity of cold water Is poured over
th. chroma salt and frequently stirred un
til all has been dissolved. The solution
must not be warmer than 30 deg. C. Any
bubbles of air should be removed with the
finger or a brush. A great number of
plates may be sensitized one after another
In the same bath. After the plates have
been sensitized they are well drained and
dried In a dark and not too warm place,
free from dust.
The sensitized plates keep much longer
than sensitized pigment paper, and pre
serve their qualities completely for two or
three weeks.
The dlapositlvns to be copied are laid In
a frame with the film side In contact with
the film side of a sensitised print plate.
The frame is then closed with a good spring
and exposed, the exposure time for a print
plate being about the same as that for
collodln paper.
Electric arc light is Just as good as di
rect sunlight for copying. ,
After copying the pictures should be dis
tinctly seen In brown color on a yellow
background. The print plate Is now washed
In running water until all decomposed
chrome has been removed. Usually wash
ing is complete In ten minutes. The plates
may now be dried or placed directly In the
dye solution.
The well-washed print plate, either dry
or moist, which corresponds to the red fil
ter negative, Is steeped in the blue dye so
lution composed five grammes of plnatype
blue dissolved In 250 cc. of water and th.
dish oscillated from time to time. The
first dyeing occupies about fifteen min
utes. The plate Is then washed and rinsed
until, the water running off from It Is .10
longer colored. It should have the appear
ance of a dlaposltive full of detail, with al
most transparent whites and Intense
shades.
Clearing the Babbles.
If the printed shade Is successful a piece
of "transfer" paper of the size of tha
printed plate Is now softened in cold
water, all the air bubbles being removed,
until the paper has become completely
pliable and fully distended. The paper is
now attached to the plate, preferably under
water, with film sldei against the film side
of the printed plntc and both removed
from the bath, at the same time draining
off tho excess of water by a gentle mo
tion of the hand.
The plate is then laid upon a table, paper
uppermost, and protected with a piece of
oiled silk or the like, and the paper firmly
smoothed over with a ruhher squeegee
from the middle outward, using moderate
pressure. The operation is similar to that
n the pigment process.
When the paper adheres satisfactorily It
s covered with a damp sheet and a glass
I'lnte in order to prevent evaporation, and
the whole allowed to stand for ten to fif
teen minutes, if desired, under a light
weight. After the lapse of the abovo
period the picture will be found transferred
to the paper with sufficient strength. The
paper Is now removed and hung up to dry.
The print plate Is now again, placed for
about five minutes In the dye bath, rinsed,
and the picture again transferred to paper
as above directed. These operations may
bo repeated as often as desired.
By repeated Immersion In Ihe dye bath
the print plate becomes darker. Neverthe
less the prints from the plnte are quite
uniform, as only the exterior surface of
the dyed plate has action on the paper.
The dye plates may be kept for anv
length of time after use, and con at any
time be again employed after a fresh Im
mersion in the dye bath.
The dyeing of the print plate correspond
ing with the green filter negative is don.
n the same manner.
For the dye bath five grains of plnatype
red are stirred with a little water to a
paste and then three to five cc. concen
trated ammonia solution added. Suffi
cient ammonia must be used to completely
dissolve the dye to a clear deep red liquid.
After about five minutes the solution la
diluted with cold water to 250 cc.
After the .red plate has been washed free
from the excess of dye stuff the blue pic
ture is softened In water and laid under
water upon the red print plate. The op
eration Is carried out in the same way as
before described, the blue picture being
easily shifted under water so as to com
pletely correspond to the red print plate.
When the adjustment Is complete the
paper is held firmly against the plate with
suitable clamps, leaving the film free; the
film is then withdrawn, water again run
over the plate and then the paper pressed
firmlv down with the sqeegee. It Is al
lowed to stand for ten to fifteen minutes
and the paper then removed from th.
plate.
Some Important Details.
About thirty minutes should be allowed
for the first Immersion of the print piste
corresponding to the blue filter negative
In a dye bath composed of five grams of
plnatype yellow dissolved In 200 co. of hot
water; for subsequent immersions five to
ten minutes. The yellow transfer upon
the blue and red picture occupies about
thirty minutes. It Is advisable to well
moisten the superimposed damp sheet in
order to prevent the films adhering to each
other.
To Increase the picture's fastness to light
and to harden tho gelatine layer the paper
Is now immersed from one to two mln
utes in a fixing bath of two grama flxa
tlve nd 100 cc. water After fixing the
picture Is washed for about five minutes
in clean water and hung up to dry.
The principal advantages of plnatype are
the print plates, which are prepared In
simple fashion with the aid of light; allow
the preparation of a large number of paper
copies therefrom by a purely mechanical
process, without further recource to light
The print plates can be kept and at any
time used without the aid of light for the
preparation of paper copies. In conse
quence of the Intensity of the plnatype
dyestuffs and the Immunity from spoiled
pictures pinatypes are very cheap. Plna
types are extremely fast to light. A three

a safe.
Several drummers and others Interested
In tho Jewelry business while chatting in
the smoker of a railway train began swap
ping stories about thefts of Jewelry.
StorlcB were told ot the boldness of Jew
elry thieves and some of the methods em
ployed by them to obtain valuable stock.
The llrst story was told of an Individual
who was seen lounging about the plate
front window of a Jewelry store. No par
ticular attention was paid to the man at
the time, but the cleiks recalled the Inci
dent after the robbery. In this Instance
the man -appeared a number of times in
front of the store. One evening, soon after
dark, there was a sudden crash and a rob
ber was actively engaged in scooping In
jewels with a hooked stick. In thirty sec
onds he was done and away. Bystanders
stood as if petrified until the man struck
out at a run. Then the store people and
the bystanders realized what had occurred
and shouting "Thief." started after the
lan.
The man droppea his bag. The pursuers
stopped and seized the bag. They returned
to the store with the bag In high glee, re
marking Incidentally that there was no
need In chasing the thief, because here
were the goods. . The proprietor of the
store and all the clerks had followed, but,
having further to go than the crowd, were
behind and were met by the peoph! with
the bag. Proudly the bag was opened.
It contained a brick. The thief had dropped
It to check the pursuit. Realizing the trick
had succeeded, the crowd, headed by the
salesmen and proprietor, went back to the
store, only to discover that the window
had been cleaned of stock and the counters
were bare of a number of costly articles.
A policeman on duty said that after the
proprietor and clerks of the store ran for
the departing thief a neatly dressed gen
tleman, with all the airs of a member of
the firm, gave directions to two other men
to get the stuff out of the windows, and
told him (the officer that this was being
done as a precaution against theft whilo
the window was broken. In Borne first-
class stores there Is a regular danger signal
arranged and the men are drilled each
week. When the danger gong sounds one
man takes his place at the door, another at
the telephone to send word to the police,
another, with running qualities, makes for
the door, in readiness to pursue, and so on.
Among other stories told were some re
lating to the tricks and devices of the
Jewelry thieves. The robber often works
at night or some times during a crowd, by
cutting out a disk of glass near where
some costly goods are shown. He may
reach in and secure something and be off
before detected. Sometimes he has a tong
Instrument hidden under his coat, so that
he can reach In smd pick up a watch. Often
again he uses a simple stick with a slightly
turned end, hoeklng Into a ring.
The process of crushing In a plate front
during the intervals of the patrol of the
police, at the same time making no noise,
Is done by pasting cloth or heavy paper on
the glass. ' A wood mallet Is used, the
hammer ends being securely bound up in
a heavy woollen fabric stuffed with ex
celsior or kindred material. With tills soft
headed mallet it U possible to bang away
noiselessly at the glass until the pane be
gins to crumble. Unless the plate is un
usually thick an opening can be made with
out much trouble.
In recent years Jewelry thieves, like bank
robbers, have rented quarters near the
place they Intended to rob, and livi d there
iong enough to study the situation. In one
case a room was hired over a jewelry store
and entrance effected to the store by means
of a rope ladder dropped from Ihe window
of the room to a window leading to a hall
In the store portion. In another case the
bar spreader was used to open the bars of
a window. This device consists of a spirally
threaded shaft fitted into two blocks, with j
a central piece with a bar for turning.
The blocks are adjusted between two bars, i
the central piece turned, whereupon the I
spiral shaft chums the blocks to expand I
j sldewlse, forcing the burs open. Then the
Intruder can ;ass in.
A stury was told of a removal of a safe
in which the proprietor of a Jewelry store
was accustomed to put Ills costly stock '
each night. It as not a large safe, but
exceedingly strong, and because of its light I
weight a number of bolts were put through
the floor and connected with the safe bot

could not take this safe unless thay look

Yes. It is true' that I'm out of a jyl). It is
funny that a salesman who can sell goods
as I can Should get "canned," but that Isn't
half as funny as the way I got It.
When I was with SmithBon, Lytle & Co.
I was considered their star man and got
the biggest salary they paid. I was worth
it, too, for I got results. For a year or
more Harris & Kauffmann tried to get me
and they finally made me an offer that I
simply couldn't turn down. It was away
and beyond what I was getting, and I took
the bait. I was foxy enough to Insist upn
a contract for five years, but 1 wasn't foxy
enough, for we all know that old Kauff
mann has a reputation as a cold proposi
tion. I was up against tough luck from the
start. Everything seemed to go against
me my first trip. I never before had made
such a miserable showing. I was almost
afraid to show up at the house. You may
Imagine my surprise and gratification when
I got a greeting that was rapturously ef
fusive. I expressed my chagrin at my poor
success, but old Kauffmann didn't seem to
be worried a bit about It.
"Oh, 1 know how that Is," he said.
"Things will go that way sometimes In
spite of everything. We're perfectly satis
fied with your efforts, so don't be wor
ried." Then they sent me on a long trip into
new territory. It hardly seemed possible,
but that trip was worse than the first one.
I didn't make expenses, to say nothing of
salary. When I got back I expected a good
catling down. I felt that only that con
tract stood between me and getting fired,
and I was truly ashamed to face the "old
man." When I went Into the office I was
more surprised than, ever to be told that
the firm had no kick coming.
