The Story of the Birds 



"I believe this is the best book on bird study ever 

 written. I have been all throug-h it and found 

 it the most original aud instructive book I know." 



These words were spoken by Judge Marble, editor of Birds and Ali, 

 Nature;, as he sat in his sanctum one day conversing with friends. 



We thought it too good to let pass. We have some of these books con- 

 stantly on our shelves, although we regret to say we do not publish them. 

 We shall be glad to fill orders for them at 65 cents. We have to keep a stock 

 of them because there is a steady demand for them at our office. Children 

 and adults read this little work with equal delight and improvement. 



For prompt attention address your order as follows:

Tti6 Best Gladstone Portrait Ever Made^ -^^ 



Has been perfected by the Nature Study Publishing Company by the 

 same process as the illustrations in Birds and Ai,i, Nature. 



Present the school you are interested in with one of these. 



Nothing inspires the young as does the noble example of greatness. 

 Qive your young friends this moral and mental uplift. 

 Do it at once before you neglect the matter. 



Have it well framed for a permanent memorial in the schoolroom. 



Including margin, it is 16 by 25 — large enough to appeal to every pupil in any 

 schoolroom. 



There has never been anything in the line of color printing at all to be compared 

 with our process, and no portrait of the great statesman has been published which 

 approaches this in truthfulness and general effect. It is very like a fine oil painting. 



We have but few of them and they can never become common. Orders will be filled 

 promptly till the prints are out of stock. To insure prompt attention address all letters 

 regarding this picture to
