A NEW FIND OF KARE^CIMABAR 



CRYSTALS. 



We have just received one of the most remarkable consignments of 

 Cinnabar Crystals ever sent to this or any other country. They were so 

 remarkable in crystallization and color that we immediately contracted for 

 the entire output. They are from Wanshanchang (Hamlet of Ten Thousand 

 Hills), Tungyen Prefecture, Province of Kweichow, China. They occur in 

 ordinary and interpenetrating twins of bright ruby-red color. In size the 

 crystals are from i to f inches. The matrix is a pure white quartz, the crystals 

 always occurring in cavities, with quartz crystals ; prices $5, $10, $15, $25, 

 $50 and $100, and the supply is limited. 



OUR NEW BULLETIN. 



We have issued a new 10 -page bulletin, covering in brief all our depart- 

 ments. The announcement of this in the last number of the Scientific 

 Journals, together with the announcement of an introductory reduction, met 

 with so great a success and pleased so many old and new customers that at 

 their earnest solicitation we have decided to extend it for another month. 

 We will therefore during September only, allow a reduction of Twenty Per 

 Cent on Common Minerals and Ten Per Cent on Fine and Eare Minerals, 

 polished Minerals, and Cut Gems. The departments treated are as follows :— 



Showy Minerals, Rare Minerals, New Finds of 

 Minerals, Gems, rough and cut, Mosaic Collec- 

 tions, Geological Specimens, Ore Collections, 

 Indian Relics, etc. 



Write us to-day for this Bulletin.

Among the most remarkable and rare of our immense stock of Cut Gems

 Andalusite, and other precious and semi-precious stones. 



We shall receive in a few days a very fine lot of rare minerals from Europe ;
