Mr. Frank H. Lattin, 



Albion, N. Y. , 

 My Dear Sir : 



The initial number of ' 'Nat- 

 ural Science News'' reached me today. 



An order from Massachusetts for a 

 collection of the Famous Herkimer County 

 Crystals, in answer to my ad. in that 

 issue, reached me eight hours. before a 

 copy of the paper did. Good enough! 



Predicting that it will be a firs- 

 class advertising medium, I am 



Respectfully Yours, 



A. B. CRIM. 



EMBALMING! 



ARTISTIC! RELIABLE! 



The process of embal ning and mounting birds 

 and other object's ot Natural History, though 

 over a quarter of a century in use has fallen into 

 disrepute through the advertisements of persons 

 who used inert chemicals in the embalming pre- 

 parations. 



The science is reliable and still in favor with 

 hundreds of Naturalists. A trial will convince 

 you. As a promoter and follower of the highest 

 art in Taxidermy, I am fully aware that there are 

 thousands who cannot afford to purchase a high 

 priced work on the subject. 



Instructions and Material, 75 cts.

 All questions answered.
