With this Backing, which is most easily applied and removed ordinary glass 

 plates are made perfect. It prevents that white fog around light objects, 

 renders perspective truthfully, lends atmosphere and removes all lestrictions 

 as to source or intensity of light. With Backed Plates you can take Natuie 

 as you find her, truthfully and artisticall y. 



The latest and best article for filling in holes in the negative, as no spot will 

 show on the punt. Also for touching up all black and white prints. Two 

 shades of medium to match any tint. Anyone can use it, and improve negatives 

 and prints amazingly. Spot jour negatives before printing, or before sending 

 them to be printed, for best results.

A Good Formula Free 



To save plates use a Wager Ex- 

 posure Scale. It tells you the cor- 

 rect exposure in every case, and 



saves its cost in a month. No sensitized paper, no multiplying in the head — that's a 



nuisance, and besides you may make a mistake. Endorsed by the Editor of Recreation. 



Post free, 50 cents. Aluminum $1.00. Your money returned if you don't like it. Send 



a postal for our Booklet No. 5, lots of hints and formulae.

A SUGGESTION FOR CHRISTMAS. 



Have you commenced- to think of Christ- 

 mas presents ? If so, here is a suggestion : 



A yearly subscription to Recreation 

 furnishes one of the most delightful, in- 

 structive, entertaining Christmas presents 

 you can possibly give a man or boy who 

 is interested in nature, in fishing, shooting, 

 amateur photography; or, who is fond of 

 the woods, the fields, the mountains, the 

 lakes or the rivers. 



Many of the presents which people give 

 their friends afford pleasure only for a few 

 days, or weeks. A subscription to Recrea- 

 tion means solid comfort a whole year. 

 It reminds your friend 12 times during the 

 year of your kindness and generosity. 

 There are many men and women who for 5 

 years past have annually sent in long lists 

 of names of friends, accompanied with a 

 check in order that these friends might be 

 made happy a whole year. Would it not 

 be well for you to adopt this plan? 



Try it and see how grateful the recipient 

 will be.
