on others, and we have no doubt many 

 others will also be contributed as the 

 scheme gets better known. 



Of course this suggested Exchange 

 Club does not alter the arrangement 

 by which our readers can have the use 

 of our columns for their own announce- 

 ments, and we should be glad to see 

 this made more use of. Some, no 

 doubt, are too anxious to bargain in 

 exchanging, wanting to have as good 

 as they give, and better. Neither 

 through a club, nor by private ex- 

 change can both parties have the ad- 

 vantage, except that it is always an 

 advantage to get what you require and 

 to help others. Never mind the money 

 value of your insects ; no gentleman 

 ever thinks of such a thing. Give 

 liberally, and you will always be well 

 treated in return.

SPECIAL NOTICE. 



Our friends have had great trouble hitherto 

 in procuring the Youxg Naturalist through 

 a Bookseller : the firm who supplied the 

 trade at first being too far from the centre for 

 collectors to go to Walworth for odd copies of 

 penny paper. We now have pleasure to 

 announce that we have arranged with 

 Messrs. John Kempster & Co., 

 St. Bride's Avenue, 



Fleet Street, 



London, E. C. 

 who will in future supply the trade ; a nd we 

 trust our readers will have no further di fficulty 

 in procuring copies through a local Bookseller.

NOTES, CAPTURES, &C, 



Cucullia Umbratica and Chamomile. 

 I always understood that the distinguishing 

 character between images of these species 

 (Young Nat. Vol. II., p. y.,) was the transverse 

 black collar-like streak in front of the thorax 

 of Chamomilli?, which is wanting in its near 

 relative. — G. T. Porritt.
