New Style Of H4skcBBcs&cS {!

DAGUERREOTYPES SUPERCEDED!
4 MBROTYPEs are far suderior to the
- ordinary Daguerreotype for many rea'
sons, viz: They are finer and more beautiful
they do not reverse the position, as the Da.
guerreotype does; they can be seen in any
light they are taken in much shorter time,
therefore the expression is more lifelike.
They can be be made double, SO as to show
two pictures instead of one.
They are sealed between two Glasses and
uiU nerer fade'
There is softness and brilliancy in this
new style of Picture which has never been
obtained in the old Daguerreotype process.
70 Persons wishing to see this new style
Of Picture are invited to call at the rooms of
the undersigned, at the Opelousas Varieties,
where they will remain until the first of Oc-
tober. CLARK 4 HEDRlCk.
