CALCITE. In splendid scalenohedrons 

 from one to eighteen inches in diameter, 

 containing "phantoms" of Marcasite, some 

 of the larger crystals showing tints of am- 

 ethystine and honey -yellow color divided 

 by iines of bright Marcasite crystals. 25c 

 to $10.00. 



ICELAND SPAR Where particularly 

 clear or finely colored material was found, 

 we sacrificed crystallization and obtained 

 from parts of large crystals, what are be- 

 lieved to be the most beautiful rhombs of 

 Iceland Spar ever seen. They show per- 

 fect transparency save for the exquisite 

 coloring of yellow and various amethyst 

 shades, and the bands of brilliant spear- 

 shaped Marcasite crystals. 



The small cleavages at 10c. to 2Ec. are of 

 quite as fine quality as the cabinet speci- 

 mens of higher price and make a novel ad- 

 dition to the collection 'of microscopist or 

 amateur. 



DIASPORE CRYSTALS. — All of the resent find made at Chester, Mass.. 

 was secured by us. Clear violet-colored crystals of high lustre and per- 

 fect crystallization are implanted on the emery, making specimens of a 

 type new to collectors. None have been found but the few taken out some 

 months ago and our collector informs us that there is little chance of then- 

 being found again: $9.00 to $15.00. 



Small groups and microscopic specimens, 50c to $1.50. 



ZEOLITES FROM OREGON. A new locality rivaling Nova Scotia m the 

 excellence of its Chabazites, Stilbites, Nalrolites, Thompsomtes. A large lot 

 received, containing many beautiful specimens, the groups of Chabazite 

 being especially noteworthy. Also Lorandite. Kylmdrite. Caswellite, Em- 

 eralds. Onyx, Sphalerite, etc., etc. Boxes of minerals sent for examination.
