We could never have made this paper anywhere near as good did we not manu¬ facture ^tratljmore Japan, than which there is none other equal or similar in a machine made paper.

From this little nest, warm and satiny, where the pretty, but chilly little hands bury themselves in the silk lining, carrying with them a handkerchief of lace, a bottle of per¬ fumed candies, a bouquet of double violets, or a tender love letter; a thousand things rise up and unfold themselves before us, the recollec¬ tions of our youth at home and the caressing sensations of our first truant loves.

Of course in addition to photogravure this includes steel engraving, process engraving, etchings and mezzotints all of which have been tried out. Whether the subject is one of contrast in light and shade where the deep, velvety black and the clear, distinct, sharp impression bringing out detail is required, or a subject of a soft character giving delicate, luminous and transparent tones, the paper will be found in every way to meet all requirements. The general run of papers do not produce these results; the fine tones are frequently lost; the blacks appear muddy and the subject flat. We will gladly, and so will our Agents, send sample sheets of any or all items of ALEXANDRA JAPAN for testing.

Far below in fathomless hollows lay villages, slum¬ bering on hill-tops, with here and there a light gleaming from a tardy window. Villas along the Ombla filed by in ghostly procession and we stopped at Gravosa. It is almost midnight. It has rained, but the night air is soft and fresh. Other carriages starting with ours run a mad race along the road. The horses,their heads toward home, take the hills at a trot and de¬ scend at a gallop. Vague forms, half seen in the misty moonlight, speed by: pointed cypress tops and many-fingered pines; the tall shafts of aloes; over¬ hanging fir boughs; a belfry framing in a big, black bell, narrow stairs climbing into the night; on the one hand conscious of the mountains, on the other, of precipices and the sea, the sound of whose tossing surf comes faintly to our ears.

It shows half-tones and coated papers are no longer a necessity for a wide range of illustrative matter. The mere fact that an Antique stock, with so much in its favor, can be used in preference to a coated stock, is an advantage sufficient to commend the process. When considered in connection with the results, both artistic and prac¬ tical, the effect is certainly everything to be desired.
