The length of the captive line may photographs may be taken at anelevation of 150 feet and good ones at 500feet. We would recommend the use of along line, as there is a pleasure in experi-menting with altitudes and comparing effectsand results. The captive line should be POPULAR MECHANICS. 61. Fig. 3.

In Fig. 5 is shown a reel for winding andunwinding this three-strand cable. Thereel runs on ball bearings and the innerends of the two wires are connected with aplug terminal on the reel, so that a terminalbattery may be connected at the momentthe electric current is desired.
