This process was first discovered by Mr Hem, a popular photographer in Boston, Mass.. U.S.A., and has b^n practised by him since 1861. Ail though this method of beautifying photographs is attended with much oareful manipulation, the result is rery satisfactory and pleasing as well as beneficial, inasmuch as it preserves the picture from fading and spotting by exposure to air.
