where by means of thj most perfect apparatus hitherto con-
structed together with the latest improvements in operating

beauty and accuracy of delineation cannot be surpassed.
Mr Allen has recently added to his establishment a new and
powerful Achromatic Camera which enables him to take Por-
traits and Miniatures from the smallest size to the largest.
The unavailing regrets often expressed by those who have
lost relatives or friends that they do not possess their likeness
should induce every person to have ihe portraits of those near
and dear to them taken by this cheap and perfectly accurate
process. Miniatures taken in all kinds of weather with or
without colors.
