The photograph has superseded the il-paintinp

the people want Ill u portrait is frUth they do
not wish the artists conception of n man. but
the face aud features of the man as he is-and
ny no means can this grand result be better at

this new process bnsed thereon. But while these
great advantages arc secured, il admits of the
embellishments of art, and portrait is pro-
duced possessing ali the truthfulncss of a

tremely fortunate in their selection Of the mode
