OUR NEW STUDIO,

we would inform them that we have now increased facilities for the production of tlrst-class work, and are prepared to make Prorograpns of a Style and Quaiily thal has never been before allempled in this Vity.

We have on exhibition, at our Rooms, a large number of Photograps cf every variety, including the

BEAUTIFUL PHOTO - ENAMEL

the most beautiful style of Photograph known, possessing a softness and delicacy of coloring that has never been equalled. This elegant picture has become deservedly popa’ar elsewhere, and cannot fail to be- come so here.

Though the finish of our Photographs cannot be excelled, we would direct alten- tion to the beautitul

Glace Pictures

which we make. They possess a highly enamelled surface, and are practically indes- tructible, and will retain their freshness and beauty for any length of time. If they become sojled they can easily be cleaned, us they will mot lose any of their beauty by

being wet. This valuable quality, com- bined with their remarkable élegance, imake them very suitable for presents; While the difficulty of their production will

have one or all of their Photos finished in this style—an advantage which cannot be obtained elsewhere. . We give special attention to making Groups of Families, Societies, schools, &c.

Our pictures of children are sufficient evidence of our success in this diffleult branch of our art.

Our #NLARGEMENTS, finished in India Ink, Pastel, Crayon, Oil and Water Colors, have made a favorable reputation for them- selves throughout the Lower Provinces.

Parties intending to have Photographs | nade will find it to thelr advantage to sit 'eariy, as the number of our customers makes some delay in the delivery of the Vhotos unavoidable. We prefer t0 have our sitters come by appointment,
