MIL CLAUDET'S Photographic or Daguerreotype
PORTRAIT ESTABLISHMENT, in London, is OPEN
DAILY, No. 18, King William-street, Strand, near Charing-
-cross. The Portraits are invariably taken non-inverted, and
when coloured by Mr. CLAU n ET'S improved process, they form
the most pleasing and exquisite Miniature.
OPINIONS OF THE FINE ARTS JOURNALS, &C.
"A Daguerreotype portrait that could truly be pronounced a
flattering likeness we certainly never expected to see, that phe-
nomenon, however, was presented to us on recently visiting
Mr. Claudet's Establishment."—Athemeum.
"In Mr. Claudet's portraits we no longer see the flat, un-
meaning face, with outline correct, but features confused and
distorted. Scientific adjustment and artistical treatment have
obviated this, and the productions are now in higher relief, and
with the lights and shadows of nature."—Literary Gazette.
"Mr. Claudet is enabled to modify various effects of light
'and shade on the face : by this means displaying the features
in their natural relief. The figure is also taken in its proper
Position, instead of being inverted. We confess we had no idea
of the possibility of producing anything so artistic on a metal
Plate."—Art Union.

"A very useful invention has recently been introduced be-
fore the public, more particularly concerning the ladies who
wish to be economical in matters of dress. Every lady knows
that hair oil and perspiration soils and destroys bonnets of silk,
trftw, and' other delicate materials. Mr. It. W. Metharn has
rented a neat little article to wear under the bonnet, to avoid
-`8 being soiled. It is very applicable to bonnets worth dying
,or cleaning. It may be worn in winter and summer ; is exces-
sively light, and not heating, on account of its ventilating pro-
perties. It will be the means of preserving a bonnet from de-
-I:;truction, and seems in every respect a useful and novel_. inven_
`'°n—we recommend ladies to try it. Oil silk, India-rubber
Leloth, and otheratents, in use for this purpose, inflict not only
trneft4ache
.and loss of hair, but also subjects the eyes to dis-
t'a ing pain."—Times. •
