MINERALS. 



NEW ARRIVALS. 



Among' all the Alkaline Minerals none are as beautiful or exhibit so great a 

 variety of forms as Hanksite. 



Dr. Foote's visit to the locality 7 years ago, together with recent arrivals, 

 enables us to offer the finest crystals that have ever been seen. A long course of 

 experimentation has lead to the discovery of a composition which preserves the 

 crystals in all their original brilliancy of lustre and sharpness of angle. To those 

 who are familiar with decomposing alkaline minerals these perfectly protected 

 Hanksites will be a revelation. The surfaces are perfectly hard, clean, bright and 

 dry, although most of the crystals have been out 7 years. With fair usage we 

 will guarantee them 7 times 7 years. Good crystals; 25 cents to $10.00. Groups, 

 $1.00 to $15.00. 



One or two extraordinarily rare forms at higher prices. 



Ohalcopyrite from French Creek, in remarkably neat specimens, very finely 

 crystallized. 50 cents to $2.00. Larger museum specimens $1.00 to $5.00, 

 smaller 10 cents to 50 cents. 



Warren M. Foote has visited the famous Ripidoliie locality and with the addi- 

 tion of those purchased from old collections some of the best specimens ever seen 

 can be offered. Fine crystals 50 cents to $5.00, smaller cleavages showing crystal 

 form, 15 cents to 50 cents. Many other species such as Gadolinite, Phenacite, Lead- 

 hillite. etc., received in smaller quantities 32 page supplement to the Mineral 

 Catalogue to be published soon. Price List of Minerals free.
