OUR NEW STUDIO,

we would inform them that we have now increased facilities for the production of first-class work, and are prepared to make PHotograpus of @ Slyle and Quality that has never been before allempled in thas 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 Rpotogrene known, possessing a softness and delicacy of coloring that has never been equalled. This 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 beautital

Gliaee Pictures

which we make. They possess a highly enamelled surface, and are practically ind*” 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-

-hbincd with their remarkable elegance,

make them very suitable for presents; while the difficulty of their production will prevent them ever becoming 80 common as to lessen their value. Our patrons cap have one or all of their Photos finished ip this style—an advantage which cannot be »btained elsewhere.

We give special attention to muking Groups of Fam:lies, Societies, Schools, &c.

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

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

Parties intending to have Photographs made will find it to their advantage to sit early, as the number of our cu:tomers makes some delay in the delivery of the Photos unavoidable. We prefer to have our sitters come by appointment,

Photographs can be Obtained for less money elsewhere ; but in this case we ask that quality be given the preference; as- suring the public that they will flad our charges very moderate.
