The (.ar Nicholas was, in fact, the
last real autocrat in Europe. 1 count
it among my most instructive experi
ences and rncohlections to have ob
tained a living picture of the most re
markable man of my time, which I
was able to supplement and complete
from time to tnle by meansof inuner
ouscoun.tctions with relatives cmmon
to us both. In the person of the Em
peror Nicholas all vague abstraltions
of state, church and nationahty van
ished. On hlooked at himi amnd per

tlhese ternls was concentrated in his
person. Apart from him niothing ex

lie was the mist perfect wearer of
uniform ;amom.,g all the princes of Eu
rope, a tailor's bhlck (Modellh for every
kind of full dnmrs. The principles of
his life amn government were uniform
and red tlap. He looked both the
statesnman and the general in so
marked a degree that his complete
capacity to till either role seemed to
every one a foregone conclusion.
Thait and everything else he effected
by means of the grand spirit born
within him, which was expressed in
the phrase. "Nimbus of the Autocrat."
He was better capable of maintaining
this in the most brilliant style than
any of the empelrors and kings of his
time. But with equal ability lie man
aged to give to the social expression of
his feelings a certain air of bonhomie,
which c(irrV'sl1)ted to his chainge of
uniform. Above all, he understood
the art of putting one out of counte
nance, while his gallain and chival
rous demeanor fascinated both men
and women. His influence was every

There are various ways for provid
ing surprising results in photography,
things that in one age would have
been called magic, but in ours recog
nized as scientific tricks. The ghost
picture, for instance, in which a
shadowy ghost-through which ma
terial objects are visible-is seen be
tween twtural attitudes and occupy
tions. This is produced by an almost
instantaneous exposure of the figure
that is to do duty as the ghost, fol
lowed by a full exposure of the figures
and properties that are to appear natu
ral. Another novel trick was shown
recently in a photograph reproduced
by a prominent trade journal, which
presented the photographer seated at
a table, playing chess with himself
seated on the opposite side of the ta
ble. while lie himself stood up in the
background,lookiug at his two selves
playing. .
The ilgures were all on the negative,
which wasL produced by three succes
sive exls suresof the plate, parts there
of lx.iing mnasked each time by a black
velvet .liutter. Still another trick is
that by which aº person who liked that
sort of thing may appear to be photo
graphed riding upon a flying goose or
a fish. or any other desired style of
ridiculous locomotion. This is done
by the subject holding upon his lap a
huge piece of white or sky tinted card,
with the fanciful ligure drawn upon it.
His face alpears above the upper edge
of the card, and seems, in the picture,
joined to the funny little body mounted
on the goose or fish. The statue pic
ture is made by about the samine device.

Even so commonplace a thing as a
fence gives character to the landscape.
This is a matter of importance to all
who are interested in making country
places and country life as attractive as
possible. The fences of Norway, as
described, must be an ugly blemish
upon the face of the country.
Two thick stakes of pine, from seven
to eight feet long, are driven firmly
ilnto the ground within an inch of each
o.tlhr, and repeated at intervals of four
feet. "
S;maller sticks are then placed in a
slaniting, position between the uprights,
w hIIuli x.rve as grooves to keep tlhemn
in thecir place, and they are still fur
ther ccured by their being bound to
get her with twigs of osier.
When completed, it makes so com
pact a fence that a weasel could
scarcely put his nose through. They
cannot. however, boast of combining
the ornamental with the useful, hav
ing a gaunt, monotonous look, which
made us long to see them replaced by
the pretty edgerows of England.
