unforeseen occurrences to which every

A New FEAruRr. -.wamartj,,, !, =

A NEW FEATURE.-We mention it, not
as an advertisement, but as a fact not
generally known and, perhaps, of inter
est to many of our readers, that pro-
cess exists of copying likenesses from old
pictures and giving to the copy all the
freshness and tone of vigorous and
healthful life. 1t is especially interest
ing to those who may have old pictures
of friends now dead, or far removed, to
know that copies may be made from the
old picture which will preserve the exact
likeness of the original and in which the
dress, position, and surroundings shown
in the old pictures may be entirely
changed. We were shown, a few days
ago, faded daguerreotype Of lady
wearing bonnet and nursing child
upon her knee we were also shown the
copy which had been made from it, and
the transformation was truly Won
derful The new picture was clear and
ifehke, the bonnet and child had been
removed, and no better likeness of the
lady could have been taken had she sat
for the portrait herself Another old
ambrotype exhibited portrait of a
child resting its head against the cheek
of its nurse; in the copy the figure of
the nurse had been removed and the
features and dress of the child, even to
the curls of its sunny hair and the color
of its wide-open eyes, were presented
with living fidelity. Such picture
must be of priceless value to the mother
of that dead child; and we believe that
we will contribute to the happiness of
at least some of our readers by the in
formation that it i possible to make such
pictures, fact that many do not know.
