NOTICES 



Tis not in mortals to COMMAND success, but we'll do more, Sempronius, we'll DESERVE IT.

The Slingerland Insect Slides. 



It is with special pleasure that we 

 call attention to the advertisement in 

 this number of the Slingerland lantern 

 slides of insects. They are used at 

 ArcAdiA to the delight oi the visitors 

 that have seen them on the screen. 

 They are colored true to nature and are 

 sharply and clearly defined on the can- 

 vas. They are in every respect first- 

 class. 



High Awards for Dog Foods. 



Gold Medal and Highest Award for 

 dog foods at the Panama-Pacific Expo- 

 sition has been given to Spratt's Patent. 

 Newark, New Jersey. 



Is this surprising when you are told 

 that at three (3) shows recently, over 

 3000 prizes were won by dogs fed regu- 

 larly and exclusively on Spratt's Dog 

 Foods? 



The products manufactured by this 

 company have been on the market for 

 over fifty years. During this period 

 they have received the highest honors 

 at all the principal national and inter- 

 national expositions, a convincing proof 

 that merit wins in the long run. 



There are more prize-winners reared 

 and fed on Spratt's Dog Foods than on 

 all others combined. 



Spratt's will bench and feed the 

 Panama-Pacific Dog, Poultrv, Cat and 



Pet Stock Shows. These exhibitions 

 are among the largest and most impor- 

 tant held in this country and the fact 

 that the contracts for all the above men- 

 tioned shows have been awarded to this 

 well known firm speaks volumes for 

 their up-to-date methods, efficiency, etc. 



Get the Right Camera and Lens. 



The Goerz hand cameras equipped 

 with the Goerz lenses, the result of 

 twenty-five years painstaking research 

 work, are offered in a variety of styles 

 and lenses. The editor believes that 

 every form of hand camera, if the ex- 

 pense can be met, should be equipped 

 with an anastigmat. The difference 

 between the price of an ordinary lens 

 and that of an anastigmat is large, but 

 the result is well worth the increase. 

 Good work is occasionally done with 

 the simpler form of lens, but the anas- 

 tigmat is the most satisfactory, and as- 

 sures the largest percentage of success. 

 The Goerz people have devised a cam- 

 era that for convenience is ideal, and 

 have equipped it with anastigmat lens- 

 es, because they are not satisfied with 

 a moderate percentage of success but 

 want every exposure to be the best pos- 

 sible. Send for their new booklet, 

 "Goerz Lenses." Address C. P. Goerz

 Thirtv-fourth Street. New 'York Citv.
