This process was first discovered by Mr Hem, a popular photographer in Boston, Mass., U.S.A., and has buen practised by him since 1861. Ail though this method of beautifying photographs is attended with much careful manipulation, tho result is very satisfactory and pleasing as well as beneficial, inasmuch as it preserves the picture from fading and spotting by exposure to air. He guarantees these photographs, when enamelled, to remain perfectly brilliant for fifty years, as time and climate has no damaging eflect on them. Please call and inspect our work.
