THE OOLOGIST 



of dumb animals, and helpinj? them to 

 realize the responsibility which the 

 human race incurred when they received 

 the Divine commission to rule over the 

 animal world by mercy, and not by ag- 

 gression. The interest of the story is 

 enhanced by illustrations depicting the 

 various scenes of trial and prosperity 

 which Tabby describes.

Lovers of dogs (and their name is leg- 

 ion) have a treat in this book. The il- 

 lustrations which accompany it speak 

 as often and as loudly as the dog him- 

 self. The pictures alone are worth 

 more than the price. As the biography 

 of a bow-wow, the book is of great value, 

 while its different teachings with regard 

 to the treatment of animals will find a 

 place in every library and every school. 

 The author is to be congratulated upon 

 the production of a work which is so 

 unique, entertaining and instructive. 



Cat Tales in Vekse. By Elliot 

 Walker, Abbey Press, New York, 8vo, 

 48p, daintily bound in cloth, 50c. 



The multitudious friends (young and 

 old) of cats will welcome in this book 

 an absokitely new thing under the sun. 

 Here they will find the mioaus of their 

 favorites set in rhyme. Owners of cats 

 and these feline animals themselves owe 

 the author, Mr. Elliot Walker, a unani- 

 mous vote of thanks. The verses are 

 unique and admirably done. The cover 

 is designed by Mr. C. H. Rowe and is 

 very characteristic. Many of these 

 rhymes are of a high order of merit. 

 None of them are mere jingles. There 

 are both wit and wisdom in the lines. 



EXPOSITION COMPLETE 



Great Throngs Enjoy the Fan-AmericaQ . 



Ample Accommodations in Buffalo for 

 All Who Visit the New World's Fair. 



The Pan-American Exposition is 

 complete. Its transcendent beauties 

 and comprehensive exhibits are 



viewed, enjoyed and prnised by great 

 throngs daily. 



There are accommodations in Buffalo 

 and its suburbs for all who may visit 

 the Exposition. The rates at the ho- 

 tels, boarding hoases, restaurants and 

 private houses for lodging and meals 

 are reasonable. 



These statements are made on the 

 authority of the Exposition officials 

 with a view of counteracting as far as 

 possible false and misleading reports 

 which have gained currency in certain 



localities. 



Hundreds of thousands of fair-mind- 

 ed appreciative people have visited the 

 Exposition and returned to their homes 

 delighted with the show and their ac- 

 commodations. Their words of com- 

 mendation will go far toward correct- 

 ing the evil. No other exposition has 

 offered so many fine attractions Never 

 before has human interest been so 

 graciously catered to. The illumina- 

 tion is the grandest and most inspiring 

 spectacle ever produced by the genius 

 of man. Bathed in incandescent radi- 

 ance the Rainbow City posesses a 

 beauty exceeding that of fairyland, a 

 loveliness beyond expression. 



By day the scene is one never to be 

 forgotten. Unequal is the most fanci- 

 ful pen to an adequate description of 

 the magnificent architecture and beau- 

 tiful coloring of the palaces, grand 

 sculpture, cooling fountains, smiling 

 lakes, wealth of flora, waving foliage 

 and grass covered glades, delightful 

 vistas, and rising high above all else — 

 its pinnacle piercing the low-lying 

 clouds — a tower of graceful proportions 

 and amazing splendor, upon and about 

 which the newest and grandest ideas of 

 genius are fittingly exploited. 



Mr. Arthur C. Pearson, the well- 

 known publisher of newspapers and 

 periodicals of London, Eng., who re- 

 cently visited the Exposition, said: "I 

 much enjoyed my day at the Exposi- 

 tion, which struck me as being very 

 fine. The lighting effects at night are 

 simply marvelous. I never saw any- 

 thing like them, which is hardly to be 

 wondered at as there has never been 

 anything like them to be seen." 



Here are the expressions of a number 

 of distinguished Americans: 



United States Senator Thomas C. 

 Piatt of New York: "It is wonderful, 

 very wonderful."
