Those of our readers who wish to experlence
a genuinely delightful slrprise should take the
dret opporetunty of visiting the new photographic
art gallery which Washburn has ust fitted up at
No. )l 00 anal street.

the habit among redere to make a1lowan0e for
exaggeration sad verbal extravagane, and, re
all ng this, we are at a lose to nd fitting word
to use ia speaking of this really superb studio,
which oocupies the two upper stores of that
asads.oeaestruoture which has taken the place of
the old Daak of America.

ar air of elegance and refinement which Is ex,
