The GUIDE TO NATURE 



An Illustrated Monthly Magazine for Adults 

 'Devoted to commonplace nature with uncommon interest 



STAMFORD, CONNECTICUT. 



EDWARD F. BIGELOW, Managing Editor 



FOUR GREAT SPECIAL NUMBERS 



September, October, November and December, 1908 



A SECOND GREAT ENLARGEMENT AND IMPROVEMENT. 

 With the June issue, The Guide to Nature commenced its second era 

 of three months with so many improvements as to delightfully sur- 

 prise every patron. Beginning with the September number, there is another 

 decided advance, and the numbers for September, October, November and 

 December will eclipse all previous efforts in value and interest to readers. 



There is to be a new and beautiful cover, and many other mechanical 

 improvements. We have in hand and there are promised a large number of 

 interesting articles and expressive photographs. Several new features which 

 we are not free yet to announce are in preparation. The September number 

 will surprise and delight. 



It has taken a few months to "find ourselves." But we can tolerate the 

 delay in the satisfaction that we are doing the "finding." It takes a little time 

 to get under full headway. By the September issue we will have had that time. 



The magazine just as it is in June, July and August is of higher grade 

 than any other nature magazine ever published. It fits the present increasing 

 interest. We have full confidence that those who know the magazine agree 

 with that statement. 



Neither the Prospectus nor any form of announcement can fully portray 

 the merits of the magazine. We ask a fair trial and your hearty cooperation. 

 Let the magazine speak for itself and let us have the benefit of your suggestion 

 and criticisms. 



Single copy, 15c. One year, $1.50 



Less than one year at single copy rates, with the exception that to new 

 subscribers only is offered a four months' trial for 50c.
