The machine may be used again

The Ko-

 chine saves 

 all these inconveniences and cuts off 

 expense. The cost of operating the Ma- 

 chine, as compared with sending out one's 

 negatives for development, is a mere 

 trifle. Five cents for a Kodak Developer 

 Powder, and five cents for a Kodak Fixing 

 Powder covers it all. 



Having developed the negatives by 

 means of the machine, one finds delight 

 in the various printing processes, now
