No Collection Complete 



without one of my 



Trap-door Spider Nests! 



(Usually sold as Tarantula Nests.) 

 Neatly put up in Redwood Pails. 



The Spider's Nest of itself is one of the most 

 wonderful specimens of insect architecture in 

 existence, and when neatly set in these beauti- 

 ful little Pails and nicely decorated with moss 

 they make an ornament to any collection. 

 Sent by mail for only 50c. Nicely stuffed 

 and mounted Trap-door Spiders mailed for 40c.

SEE THAT 



ARROW? 



That is the size of the beautiful Ore- 

 gon, New Mexico and Arizona points 

 of Chalcedony, Obsidian and Jasper 

 found in those states. 



Give reference and you can get a few 

 on selection postpaid one way. 



Have 10,000 flint arrows and spears 

 from a dozen states. 



I have recently found some white 

 Chalcedony Geodes in the Bad 

 Lands, South Dakota that are different 

 and more elegant than any I ever saw 

 from any part of the world. They are 

 rarities, in size from a hen's egg to a 

 goose egg and lined with brilliant spark- 

 ling, frost-like white crystals; a few 

 amethvstine tinted and a few with tran- 

 sparent selenite, and others like snow. 

 I will send them postpaid for 25, 35 and 

 50 cents. Small ones unopened 10 and 

 15 cents. 



You never had any Oeodes in your 

 collection as handsome.

Recent Additions to Stock. 



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 25c. 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 their 

 being found again: $2.00 to $15.00. 



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



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

 excellence of its Chabazit.es, Stilbites, Natrolites. Thompsonites. A large lot 

 received, containing many beautiful specimens, the groups of Chabazite 

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

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