“A Single Ray Of Sunshine” will do for poetry, but a full supply is necessary to produce a faithful and vivid daguerreotype.  Take advantage, therefore, of the present season, and call upon Messrs. Folger & Co., No. 142 Washington street, over the well known Propeller Printing office.

A Good Likeness for the small sum of twenty-five cents.  This is an excellent season to have the likeness of yourself and relatives daguerreotyped, which will become grateful souvenirs in the future.  Call on Folger & Co., over the Propeller Printing Office, 142 Washington street.  They are the most successful artist in this department of scientific art.
