IDENTIFICATION ! 



During the past few years we have cheerfully at- 

 tempted to 



IDENTIFY ALL SPECiMENS 



our friends have sent us, and this without remunera- 

 tion ; liut owing to the fact that we are now jeceiving 

 packages by the dozen for this purpose, and that our 

 time is more than occupied with our regular business, 

 in the future we shall be obliged TO charge our 

 friends In addition to return postage the following 



E, -A. O? E S = 



Single or first Specimen, - lo «as. 



Second to tenth Specimen, - 3 dts. each. 

 Eleventh Specimen and over, - 2 (Jts. " 



The above rates for identifying we think very rea- 

 sonable. We have spent several years in handling 

 and studying specimens of various kinds, and haveoE 

 hand a very large stock with which compHrisons can 

 be made. We also hava the leading v orks to use as 

 reference. The advantage of having specimen-^ 

 protjerly identified is invaluable to collectors.
