IN MEMORY OF 

 GEORGE 



BORN DIED 



ANY NAME cut on a Leopard Cowrie shell as above, giving 

 full name, date of birth and death. This is an everlasting 

 remembrance of the departed and can never be erased. I claim 

 to be the only one in the United States who does this work. 

 It always gives great satisfaction. Price 50 cts. each, by mail 

 60 cts. 



SICKLE MOTHER OF PEARL PAPER KNIFE.— As 

 its name indicates it is cut from Mother of Pearl and re- 

 sembles a sickle with wooden handle ; an elegant present. 

 Price 50 cts. each, free by mail. I manufacture this article. 



HANGING FERN BASKETS, made from four of the / 

 large English scollop shells, 50 cts. each ; double ones, 

 standing, $1.50 each ; both by express or freight only. 



A WHITE WHALEBONE GENT'S WALKING STICK 

 mounted with ivory handle ; a great curiosity, made by 

 sailors on whaling ships. I have only a few and they are get- 

 ting scarce. $3.00 each, by express. 



SEA-SHELL JEWELRY, of which I have a large variety, 

 manufactured by myself, among which I will mention the 

 Tasmania Spiral Shell ; the iridescent colors in these shells are 

 acknowledged to be the most beautiful of anything known in 

 the way of shells ; mounted in ear-rings in solid gold, $1.50 a 

 pair, free by mail. A very pretty pair of Shell Ear-rings, 50 

 cts., free by mail. Shells mounted in Gent's Scarf-Pins, very 

 pretty and rare, from 25 cts. to $1.00 each, free by mail. 



I CLAIM to be Headquarters in the U. S. for Sea Shells, for 

 cabinets, ornamental uses and for manufacturing purposes, 

 and collectors will find numerous rare shells among those ad- 

 vertised under head of " Small Shells" which other parties 

 sell per specimen.
