Who make the best lens for all around 

 work? 



E. T. H., Fort Wayne, Ind. 



Get lenses from the following concerns, 

 on approval, and select the one which suits 

 you. They all make first-class lenses: 



C. P. Goerz, 52 Union Square E., New 

 York City; Bausch & Lomb Optical Co., 

 Rochester, N. Y.; Gundlach Optical Co., 

 Rochester, N. Y. 



Each make has its own peculiar qualities 

 and merits, and each is best for certain 

 classes of work. I own one of each kind 

 and use each in the kind of work it is 

 best adapted to. E. W. N. 



To color photographs fasten the print 

 face downward to glass by means of gela- 

 tine, removing any surplus while hot, and 

 rubbing down with sandpaper when dry. 

 Then immerse in a cold mixture prepared 

 by heating at 130-140 F., one pint of 

 castor oil, a dessertspoonful of white vase- 

 line, a teaspoonful of spermaceti, 20 drops 

 of oil of rosemary, 20 drops of citronelli 

 oil, and a small quantity of alkanet root. 

 Heat the liquid and the photograph togeth- 

 er to 130-140 F., and keep at this tempera- 

 ture about 2 hours. Then allow them to 

 cool. Place the print for about 2 hours in 

 cold castor oil, after which rub dry with 

 linen, and apply the requisite colors to the 

 back. — The Professional Photographer.
