AUDUBON'S 



Birds of America 



We have obtained and now offer for sale singly a number of the plates of this magnificent work. 

 1 bese plates arc the originals of the edition of 1850, and represent the birds as life size. The sheets 

 are elephant folio, and the paper heavy. The drawings were made from nature, and for accuracy 

 of delineation, fidelity to detail and accessories, 



Aududon's Birds have never been equalled. 



Any of thpso plates if framed would make a 



Superb Ornament 



For a sportsman's dining room, and no more beautiful and appropriate gift could he found for the 

 lover ot nature than one of these. The constantly increasing scarcity of this work makes these 

 large plates each .year more valuable. Some of the plates are double and can if desired be cut in 

 two and put m small frames. 



There are represented many species of Ducks, Gulls, Grouse, Snipe, Heron and small birds 

 almost without number. 



These plates are so large that they cannot be sent by mail without danger of being crushed, and 

 the best method ot sending them will be on rollers by express.

WOODCRAFT. 



By "NESSMUK." 



A book written for the instruction and guidance of those who go for pleasure to the 

 woods. Its author, having had a great deal of experience in camp life, has succeeded admir- 

 ably in putting the wisdom so acquired into plain and intelligible English. The chapters are 

 written to teach the amateur to journey through the wilderness with ease; to sleep on a 

 fragrant elastic bed and pillow at night, instead of abrading his vertebrae against roots and 

 stubs; to go light; to keep warm and dry; to cook plain, wholesome meals; to come out of 

 the woods refreshed and comforted; to get a dollar's worth of recreation for every dollar 

 spent. It is the thing that thousands of novices are looking for, because it gives them just 

 the advice and practical information they want. Then there are hints as well for old camp- 

 ers, who will be surprised to see how much "Nessmuk" can tell them; and stories anecdotes, 

 and a never-failing supply of mother-wit for the entertainment of all who can appreciate a 

 good thing told in camp or in print. Cloth, 160 pages, illustrated. Price $1.00.
