MINERALS. 



I have purchased the collection of the late 

 Rev. E. B. Eddy, containing some very fine 

 specimens. It has sold rapidly, but very many 

 good things are still left.

TRAYS. 



No Cabinet should be without them. Two of one 

 size just equal one of the next. They are the best pos- 

 sible partitions. Easily changed about, easily cleaned.
