tained to either the president or secretary. 
After examination it will be returned.

The pubtishers of the Naturalist are en- 
deavoring to enlarge it without increasing 
the subscription price. But to do so must 
have more subscribers, all readers in 
favor of it can materially aid them by 
influencing at least one friend to subscribe, 
and in return will receive an increased 
number of pages of reading. 
In July all premiums will positively be 
withdrawn. Take advantage of the offer 
now and subscribe. If you receive a copy 
and are not interested, or do not care to 
subscribe, please give it to some one who 
has an interest in Natural History. —
