This process was first discovered by Mr Hem, a popular photographer in Boston, iVla?s.. U.S.A., and has b*c*n practised br him since 1861. Ail though this method of beautifying photographs is attended with much careful manipulation, thp result is Tory satisfactory and pleasing as well as beneficial, inasmuch as it. preserves the picture from fadinu and spotting by exposure to air. He guarantees thesa photographs, when enamelled, to remain perfectly brilliant for fifty years, as timo and climato has no dameglng effect on them. Pleasa call and inspect our work. El E N C I N G.
