WHAT THE PAPERS HAVE TO SAY CONCERNING STODDARD’S PORT FOLIO OF PHOTOGRAPHS. THE Boston “ Herald ” : —Mr Stoddard has had unparalleled opportunities lor gathering - these treasures. He has chosen what is of universal and social interest rather than that which entertains any particular class of people. It is a feast to the soul as i j well as the eye, and it should have a place in | every home where there is money enough to i purchase it. We cannot speak in too strong terms m its praise and of the admirable artistic qualities which are displayed in its editorship and execution. The Philadelpha “ Telegraph ” : —A more charming and instructive volume would be difficult to name. Mr Stoddard furnishes an agreeable introduction, and each plate has a valuable descriptive note from the same capital pen.

Stoddard will welcome the announcement that the best and most interesting views have been preserved in a Portfolio of Photographs. It should find a place in every intelligent household and to those who have visited the scenes Mr Stoddard describes and illustrates it will have a peculiar interest. New York t- Press ” :—This is undoubtedly one of the most valuable and complete collections of the kind ever published. In artistic and typog-aphical execution the work is nearly faultless.] Chicago “ Evening Post” In his Portfolio of Photographs Mr .Stoddard reduces his lectures to the form of a delightful volume. It is a book which does credit alike to the talented compiler and to the publishers who have dressed it in a style at once sumptuous and tasteful.
