DAVIE'S KEY 



TO THK 



NESTS AND EGGS 



OF NORTH AHERICAM BIRDS 



KOUKTH AN1> LAST EDITION. 



Owing to the fact that I have retailed 

 more copies of this invalualjle work 

 thaa ALL other dealers combined, Mr. 

 Davie appointed me "Sole Whole- 

 sale Agent," au honor, both unex- 

 pected and unsolicited. Now as I am 

 wliolly l)laraeless in regards to this 

 matter and that tlie degree of "S. W. 

 A." was conferred upon me by the 

 highest possible authority, and that Mr. 

 D. has always had my name printed as 

 such on circulars and other matter that 

 he furnishes me. Owing to these facts 

 1, see no reason why I should drop n)^' 

 "S. W. A." and cast aside the very 

 satisfactory "perquisites" attached to 

 the same in order to please envious 

 competi'ors that have not sold o)ie- 

 qua.rter the number of copies of Davie's 

 ^'aluable work. 



Owing to the above facts and being 

 Heabquarteks, I will not be under- 

 sold Ijy (inyon,:. Should any reliable 

 dealer make you better rates than I 

 quote, I will till your order for 10 cods 

 tess than their ]3rices.

EATd 



July and August, 1890. 



-^1®!^- 



We liave two stores at Chautau- 

 qua, N. Y., one in the Dock Build- 

 ing and the other — which, by the 

 way, is a veritable Museum — in the 

 old' C. L. S. C. Room next to the 

 Postoffice. 



Should any of my patrons 

 happen in the vicinity of Chautau- 

 qua during their summer vacation, 

 I trust they will make it a point 

 to "step in." We have large and 

 valuable collections of Eggs, Moths, 

 Ban'EEFLiEs, Rocks, Minerals, 

 Indian Relics and Marine Curios- 

 ities on exhibition, besides our 

 regular stock of Thousands of 

 Specimens, Curiosities, Novelties 

 and Souvenirs. 



"Lattin" expects to personall}^ 

 be in charge of his Chautauqua 

 stores, during August, and antici- 

 pates many pleasant chats with his 

 friends and patrons. 



Faithfully, 



Frank H. Lattin.
