 class manner. Deer's heads. Game pieces and 

 Fur rugs a specialty. Also, Bird skins and Eggs 

 collected to order. Specimens sent me will be 

 mounted and returned C. O. D. Satisfaction

There is no manual on collecting objects of 

 natural history that has met with the success 

 which has been accorded to this work, and there 

 are probably few Naturalists in the country 

 who have had the wide field of experience In 

 collecting in all departments of natural history 

 that the author of this book has had, thus few 

 are better fitted for the work which he has ac- 

 complished. 



TJi^ hool contains 125 pages, is printed on 

 heavy pap _, amply illustrated with ten plates 

 which contain 23 figures, and is finely bound In 

 cloth. Price, post-paid, $1.25.
