THE NIDIOLOGIST 



THE NEW 



ORNITHOLOGISTS and 



OOLOCISTS MANUAL. 



At Considerable Expense, I have published the 

 iiove manual lor the use of all Ornitholo^Msts and 

 Oiilogists. For a long lime collectors have wanted 

 a neat, handy list, giving prices of all eggs and skins, 

 also prices of Mammal skins, how to make a first-class 

 bird and Mammal skin, and the proper way to collect 

 and prepare eggs and skins, and various other infor- 

 mation, all of which and many other valuable features 

 are incorporated in the new manual. 



[-•lease note that the prices are all standard, and 

 such as are in use by the majority of collectors in the 

 U. S. The nomenclature is the A. O. U., which is the 

 recognized standard, and all the information through- 

 out will be found to be reliable and up to date. 



Also please note, that this is no dodge to get your 

 money, and then publish the manual or not as seen 

 fit, but the work is now nearly finished, and completed 

 copies will be ready to send out by March 5, doubtless 

 before this ad. is read by any subscriber to the NiDi- 

 OLOr.lST. The price is 25 cents, within the reach of all. 

 Fine leather bound copies will be ready for delivery a 

 little later. Price. 50 cents. Order at once, and get 

 whui von order.

No business is conducte<l witliout .advertising of some kind, but 

 I liavc taken my own way of telling you who 1 am, wliat I am 

 doing, and where I am located. 



I haw lpi-en followiiis,' my peculiar method of adverli^insr for 

 over live years, and jjfobably thousands of |ieople read my adver- 

 tisements wlio may never irive me an order, but the chances are 

 that if they do want something in my line they will favor mu 

 with a -s'lare of tlieir patronage instead of hunting around the 

 corner for some one they never heard of.
