Scientific Taxidermy. 



EVERY SCHOOL should have a collection of Natural 

 History specimens. Why not 



START A COLLECTION 

 of the Birds or Mammals of your county or state, or enrich a 

 present collection by the addition of some well mounted specimens? 

 \ Costs so much ? Perhaps 



so, but WRITE TO ME FOR 



PRICES and you will be 

 surprised how little such 

 a collection will cost after 

 all. Think of the interest 

 that will be awakened in 

 your school in the 



STUDY OF NATURE 



to reward you for trouble 

 and outlay. 



I mount to order 



BIRDS. MAMMALS. 



FISH and REPTILES ii 



and solicit your patronage. If you are inter- 

 ested, you should not lose an opportunity to 

 examine the novel collection of Ohio birds, 

 prepared by myself, in the museum of Zoology, 

 Ohio State University. 



TAUGHT BY MAIL.— I give instruc- 

 tions in the Art of Taxidermy, personally, or 

 BY MAIL. You can learn to collect and prepare 

 your own birds, thus reducing the cost of a 

 collection to a minimum.
