vi. The Optical Magic Lantern Journal and Photographic Enlarger. TH E BO E RS = Their Country, their Ways, their | By Rey, J. H. RIDDETTE. « Neighbours, and their War. Three Years an Outlander. This set of slides, prepared not from drawings or illustrated papers, but from photographic negatives is of the greatest interest and value, and that interest is permanent and not ephemeral. The lecture has been arranged by the Rev. J. H. Riddette, who has himself been an “ Outlander,” and who writes, therefore, from personal knowledge of the country and people. The lecture is of wbsorbing interest, and full of solid information. Many of the slides are prepared trom Mr. Riddette’s own negatives. In this set we see the country of Paul Kruger, its cities, gold mines, and mountiins. We learn who the Boers are, and get a glimpse into their customs. We gain acquaintance with their neighbours porth, south, east, and west; and are clearly informed of the causes which led up to the present war. 7 We have mada arrangements whereby the production of this set will be continued NIGHT and DAY, our men working jn shif.s.
