"Exchange Extraordinary." 



Duringthe past few years my cabinets have been practically empty. I now desire to 

 fill them up— not only with a private collection, but with a series of duplicates to use for 

 exchange and other purposes— in fact I've got the Oological "fever" once more and that too 

 in its most virulent type. Hence f want at once oological specimens of species both rare 

 and common, md I will during August or until Sept. 1st accept in exchange any species in 

 any quantity from any reliable collector on the following terms, viz: For the first *et with 

 data of each species any collector may send I will allow full rates. Single eggs accepted at 

 one-fourth rates only. Our new "Standard Catalogue" must be the one used in pricing all 

 specimens sent. All specimens must be blown through one smoothly drilled hole. in the 

 side, and the contents must be thoroughly cleaned out. No end blown or second class 

 specimens accepted at any price. No exchange les* than $2.00 can he bothered with. All pack- 

 ages must be sent prepaid at senders risk by mail or express. I shall neither repeat nor ex- 

 tend this "extraordinary" offer and I cannot spare the time to correspond in relation to the 

 same. Simply send on your specimens and state your wants and unless otherwise men- 

 tioned I will ship the same to you prepaid at my earliest possible opportunity and guarantee 

 satisfaction. In return for your specimens you make your own selection from the following, 

 at prices quoted:
