OUR NEW STUDIO,

we would injorm them that we have now increased facilities for the production of first-class work, and are prepared to make Puorocraprus ofa Slyle and Quality that has never been before attempled in this City. We have on exhibition, at our Rooms, a large number of Photograps «f 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. Chis elegant picture has become deservedly popu'ar elsewhere, and cannot fail to be- come so here.

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

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 soiled they can easily be cleaned, as they will not lose any of their beauty by being wet. This valuable quality, com- bined with their remarkable elegance, make them very suitable for presents; while the difficulty of their production will prevent them ever becoming so common as to lessen their value. Our patrons can have one or all of their Photos finished in
