Easter "Snaps." 



Daring the month of April (no later) I offer the following Specimens, Publi- 

 cation«, etc. at about one-half their value and at prices which vixe profitless to my- 

 self. I make this offer iu order to induce the patronage of collectors not already 

 dealing with me and in order to impress upon them that both my material and 

 prices are right for 1 handle a full line of specimens and supplies in all of the 

 various departments of the Natural Sciences and if there is anything you need 

 Avrite me and get my prices before purchasing elsewhere. Remit in most conven- 

 ient manner and address plainly,
