If stereoscopic viewsare to be shown, aslit may be cut at E,through which theymay be inserted with-out opening the box. Fig. 66.—Wonder Camera. The door E should be cut off a little at the bottom so as toadmit air. The light is placed at H, asnearly opposite the picture as should be a very strong light, lime-lightbeing the best for this purpose. At theback of the light is a piece of tin, bentinto the form of a reflector. The lightcoming from H strikes C, and is reflectedthrough the lens upon the screen. Theplan of the box is represented with thetop STEREOSCOPIC PHOTOGRAPHS. 173 We give no dimensions, as they willdepend upon the focal length of the lensand height of light. Care must be usedto have the distance from the lens to C,when closed, equal to the focal length. (43) HOW TO MAKE STEREOSCOPIC PHOTOGRAPHSWITH THE ORDINARY CAMERA. For some of the experiments describedpreviously stereoscopic pictures are re-quired ; it will, therefore, be useful tomany readers to learn a method by whichit is possible to produce such pictureswithout the aid of specially constructedstereoscopic cameras. Mr. Valentine Blanchard described thefollowing simple piece of additionalapparatus necessary for the purpose,which can be made by any size will be determined by the base-board of the camera. All that has to beremembered in its construction is the fact 174 PHOTOGRAPHIC PASTIMES. that a movement
