A REMARKABLE NEW CRYSTALLIZED NATIVE COPPER. 



We secured the entire out- put of these rare and beautiful specimens, (see 

 illustration on another page). We can add but little to the description 

 given there, except to say that they have to be seen to be appreciated. As 

 there are but ten of these specimens and no more can be secured, there -will 

 no doubt be great competition to secure one or more of them. One of these 

 has already been sold to the American Museum of Natural History, New 

 York City. This purchase shows the appreciation of these specimen's when 

 it is considered that this museum has one of the finest collections of min- 

 erals in this country. They run in price from S10 to $70.

RECONSTRUCTED RUBIES- 



These rubies are as good as the natural ones, if not better ; are made 

 from the same chemical substance, and have the same hardness and lus- 

 trous color, as a genuine ruby. They have also the true pigeon-blood color. 

 The only difference between a natural one and a reconstructed ruby is, 

 that the natural ruby comes out of the pocket of a rock, and the recon- 

 structed ruby comes out of a crucible. We have them on hand, from $ to 

 3 carat, and cost $5 per carat. 



We can furnish you some, in a rough pear-shape form, /j x T ^ in. Their 

 weight is from 10 to 1H carat, priced $5 to $8 according to quality.

We have all kinds of gem matrix specimens. Write for further particulars.
