"Preservative Taxidermy, with chapters on making skins 

 and skeletons, 11 20pp. and cover. This is the title of a new 

 work written b} r E. P. Webster, Editor H. 0. & 0. We 

 can not speak too highly of this work. Mr. Webster has 

 presented the preservative method in a clear concise form 

 that may be readily understood by the inexperienced at 

 one reading. He teaches us a new and easy method of 

 preserving birds for our cabinets and museums. A copy 

 of this work should be in the hands of every naturalist 

 in America. The price is 50c. Our thanks are due for 

 a copy. 



We consider the Ornithologist and Oo/ogist our best ex- 

 change. In its 14th. year the 0. & 0. is the second best 

 Ornithological magazine in the U. S., yielding first place 

 to The Auk.
