Our Slock of Minerals To-day is not only the Largest but 

 tlie most Varied and Valuable in the World— a fact that has 

 been proved by the repeated comparisons of competent judges. The policy of 

 " getting the best and lots of it " pays in the end, and is nowhere better illustrated 

 than in our show rooms and by the orders we are daily receiving. 



Systematic Collections and every kind and quality of educational 

 material furnished to colleges, schools, teachers, and students. The most careful 

 attention is given to this department, and every effort is made to illustrate the 

 science by characteristic and typical specimens. 



The following are a few among thousands of beautiful 

 and showy varieties displayed in our cases. Such things as 

 the Lawsonite, Northupite and Opalized Wood are almost unknown on account 

 of their newness and rarity.
