A Chassaigne photograph was sent to the State Department, which persons
who have seen it claim is a very crude affair, and cannot be pronounced
a success, as it only resembles a very poorly tinted photograph.
These persons declare that the Chassaigne photographs are not nearly as
fine as those of Kurz, of New York. These latter are obtained by making
three negatives of a subject--one which photographs only the yellows,
one the reds, and the third the blues in a picture.
By carefully printing the three negatives, one on the top of the other,
excellent colored pictures can be produced.
KITCHEN CABINET.--A new cabinet for the kitchen has been designed which
is a very handy thing for use.
It is arranged to contain all the sugars and spices and various nice
things that are required in cooking.
On one side is a large receptacle for coffee, with a mill fixed half-way
down, so the coffee is not only stored, but is always ready for
grinding.
On the other side is another bin for flour, which is provided with a
sifter.
By turning a handle the flour falls to the drawer at the bottom, sifted
and ready for use.
There are handy drawers for sugars and tea, and at the bottom a large
place for bread.
A clock is fixed into the top of the cabinet, and completes the very
useful little case.

=Author's Preface.=
The stories published in this little volume have been issued
from time to time in the Philadelphia _Times_, and it is at the
request of many readers that they now greet the world in more
enduring form. They have been written as occasion suggested,
during several years; and they commemorate to me many of the
friends I have known and loved in the animal world. "Shep" and
"Dr. Jim," "Abdallah" and "Brownie," "Little Dryad" and
"Peek-a-Boo." I have been fast friends with every one, and have
watched them with such loving interest that I knew all their
ways and could almost read their thoughts. I send them on to
other lovers of dumb animals, hoping that the stories of these
friends of mine will carry pleasure to young and old.
