Every photographer has suffered from 

 the evil of halation. E. W. Newcomb, of 

 New York city, has discovered a remedy 

 and has put it on the market under the 

 name of the E. W. N. Improved Non- 

 Halation Backing. This backing renders 

 halation impossible. The backing is eas- 

 ily applied and removed, sets at once, is 

 not sticky and does not stain the hands. 

 It improves the printing quality of every 

 photo and its cost for each plate is trivial, 

 the price being only 50 cents a package. 



Mr. Newcomb is also the sole manufact- 

 urer of E. W. N. Ideal Spotting Medium.

"I think we ought to give this wedding 

 a display head on the first page," said the 

 city editor. 



"Out of the ordinary, is it?" asked the 

 managing editor. 



"Well, I should say it is. There was 

 no 'bower of roses,' no 'floral bell,' no 

 'wide-spreading canopy,' no 'blushing 

 bride,' nothing 'beautiful in its simplicity,' 

 no solemn strains' to the wedding march, 

 no " 



"Enough!" cried the managing editor; 

 "double-lead it and give it a scare-head; 

 it's the only one of the kind." — Chicago
