KING MANTELS 
are distinguished for their elegance of design, beautiful finish and 
thorough workmanship. They are made not only to look well but 
to wear well. ‘They hold their good looks. Sold direct from fac- 
tory, at prices that are surprising, when quality is considered. You 
will get greatly added value by buying from 
us instead of through middlemen. 
Our little book, ‘“‘ Evidence,” is convincing, 
and will be SENT FREE if you state num- 
ber of mantel wanted. 
Our elegant 72-page catalogue (11x14 in.) 
of mantels, grates, tiles, etc., is the most com- 
plete book of its kind ever issued. This and 
our copyrighted supplement entitled ‘‘Colo- 
nial Beauties” both sent on receipt of 12 cents 
to pay actual postage.

material nowhere else so accessible in such 
convenient form. ‘That they would be value- 
less without the text is partly true, but both 
text and illustrations constitute a whole of 
remarkable value and interest. It is a book 
that can be warmly commended and which 
in adding to the tree knowledge of many 
people, which it is bound to do, must add 
greatly to the pleasure of its readers. It is 
easy to see that it is a book which is certain 
to become indispensable to every lover of 
Nature. 
PUBLISHERS’ DEPARTMENT 
Emergency Case 
IRST aid to the injured stands a chance to 
be of even permanent advantage. Speedy 
treatment of a bite, scratch, sting, wrench, 
burn, laceration, contusion or break, if the 
directions and materials are at hand, makes it 
easier for the doctor if his care is needed. 
Means to this humane end are furnished by 
the U. S. Emergency Case Company, Utica, 
New York, in its metal air tight case, con- 
taining everything necessary in a cheap, ready 
and compact form. Immediacy is its chief 
importance. It is less inconvenient than many 
comparatively non-essential articles carried by 
sportsmen, tourists, and excursionists. It 
enables an amateur to do his unsurgical or un- 
medical best by quickly following instruc- 
tions for handling remedies. We believe that 
the case is intensely applicable to the needs of

ACCIDENT EMERGENCY CASE. 
a people of a country like ours that is strangely 
prone to accidents. It may be shown that in 
the various classes of accidents there obtains 
here a more glaring percentage of casualties 
than abroad, and the recognition of this fact 
should bespeak an early consideration and 
large adoption of this perfect little receptacle. 
The twenty-nine articles are arranged or 
packed in such a manner that they can be in- 
stantly found. In pure, sterilized and anti- 
septic condition, are bandages, absorbent cot- 
ton, lint, dressing, capsules, adhesive plaster, 
ointments, arnica, aromatic spirits, tablets, 
pills, safety pins, scissors, forceps, etc. In- 
crease the case shown in the illustration of 
this notice, say eight times, and it will show 
about the correct dimensions. It represents 
the smaller of the two capacities manufactured 
and put into service by the above firm, and 
it is the standard size. “The other is the large 
case, mainly furnished for use in manufac- 
tories, mills and large industries where great 
numbers of workers are employed. It should 
be apparent that the least experienced hand 
may by the means gathered be able to admin- 
ister permanent treatment of simple hurts or 
the transitory relief to serious ones. It is 
very portable for the hand, valise, or trunk 
when traveling; it may hang on a small hook 
or nail, and occupies no very appreciable space 
in a camp, automobile, carriage, hotel, boat, 
car, home, or office. The firm’s address is
