I&tiralf sf i's Guide 



There is no manual on collecting objects of 

 natural history that has met with tne success 

 which has been accorded to this work, and there 

 are probably few Naturalists in the country 

 wlio 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. 



The b06k contains 125 pages, is printed on 

 heavy paper, amply illustrated with ten plates 

 which contain 23 figures, and is finely bound in 

 cloth. Price, post-paid, $1.25.
