times the woman’s face is reproduced
in a smaller form, and in the shape of a
heart, and is so arranged as to take the
place of the organ in which the god of
love is popularly supposed to dwell.
Photographs taken by the mirror
process show people in every conceiv-
able position. For instance, two broth-
ers are photographed to appear as one
balanced upside down on the other’s
head. As both are in evening dress,
from patent leather pumps to crush
hats, it is difficult to decide when one
has the picture right side up. Pictures
of animals in all conceivable positions
are a fad of this photographer, whose
art often takes a humorous turn. A
very small snake in the act of swallow-
ing an unusually large elephant is a fa-
vorite with those who have a sense of
the ridiculous.’ Other pictures, how-
ever, lean to tragic rather than the
comic.
A Shower of Ants.

the last aix months the bell hue lain*
neglected in a bam at Evanston, in*
charge of tie custodian, Capt.1 George
Knapp, who was in trusted with ite
care by the Liberty Bell association.-
The Baltimore Arm for some time has •
been threatening to attach the bell for'
$1,200, the cost of the casting, Hnd so-
the final steps In the matterwere taken*
by its attorney, Janies H. Barnard.
A year ago, just before the relic took
its final jaunt to the Atlanta expo-
sition, attachment proceedings wcto is-
sued against It by E. C. Streeter, of the
North Chicago iron work*. The amount
was only $125. and Dr. Oliver, of Twen-
ty-Sixth street and Indiana avenue,
rather thau have the trip Interfered
with, gave his note for the amount and
the attachment was lifted.
The bell, since the close of the world’s
fair, has lost its Interest to such an ex-
tent that the association made nop ef-
fort to save their property. ,
