FOSSILS 
All petrified objects found in the water or in the earth 
as Rocks, Shells, Bones, Plants, Animals, etc., are fossils. 
They have value when they are beautiful specimens and 
very complete. 
Pack them with paper or soft substance in small boxes. 
BRIGHT INSECTS AND SHELLS 
Jewellers, Plumassiers, Florists, Modists and others tra- 
desmen make a great use of them. 
They must be collected by hundreds and thousands. 
Women and children can be very useful for that collect. 
Put them to dry by the sun and pack them by species in 
boxes in which you pour benzine and paste band of papers 
all over. 
The more you collect, the better; because it is more easy 
to sell them when you have a great quantity of each 
species.
