"All Our Folks Arc In It!" 



LITTLE BANDAR has been looking at Vol. I of the STANDARD LIBRARY OF 

 NATURAL HISTORY. His folks are there, sure enough, with the other "kindred cf 

 the wild," whose photo portraits — after patient toil and with frequent danger — were gotten 

 everywhere, from neighboring marsh and woodlot, or the far-ofFrim o' the world. To illustrate 

 the enterprise with which this work was made, we may say that it contained an article (with pho- 

 tographs) on the Okapi (the newly discovered animal) by Sir Harry Johnston, the discoverer, long 

 before the American Museum received a specimen. Pictures are there, too, of domestic creatures, 

 from the most typical individuals obtainable. 



STANDARD LIBRARY OF NATURAL HISTORY 



By Associated Naturalists 



THE finest results of the new nature study — over 

 2,oco half-tone illustrations from photographs. 

 The accompanying text is by a group of eminent 

 experts of two continents, and is delightfully clear and ab- 

 sorbingly entertaining. This set has well been called 

 " Nature bound in the covers of a book./ It is absolutely 

 the most attractive presentment ever made of the animal 

 world, and in its field has no rival. 



"American Conservation," the official organ of the 



National Conservation Association, says of these books : 

 "Their accuracy, thoroughness, and attractiveness do 

 credit to their editors and publishers." "The LIBRARY 

 is a.tonishing," says "Forest and Stream,* "for the 

 wealth of illustrations it displays. It ij well called * a por- 

 trait gallery of actual life.* The reading matter is intrr- 

 esting — in part because it diffejs so widely from most natural 

 histories." "I keep it constantly at my elbow," declares 

 Dan Beard.
