Lures Insects to Their Doom 
Some say the liquid within these pitchers is 
intoxicating. Some say it is anaesthetic. At 
any rate it accomplishes the full purpose in 
hiring venturesome insects, drenching them 
with its fascinating sweetness and leaving 
them helpless for the Pitcher Plant to devour. 
What a Lot of Stories Nature Has to Tell You! 
This year you can shake off all vague uncertainty about the messages 
which Nature is constantly striving to give you. ^Yith the awakening of the 
myriad life about you, you can be part of it. For the 
NEW NATURE LIBRARY 
opens your eyes to all the mysteries, all the charm of the little worlds within worlds 
about you until, as John Burroughs puts it, every walk in the fields or wood is “an 
excursion into a land of unexhausted treasure.” 
NEW LIMP LEATHER EDITION 
AMERICAN 
ANIMALS 
This is the game.st fish that Dr. David Starr 
Jordan ever caught. In his Fish Book, he 
tells countless experiences of angling lore. No 
real sportsman can afford to be without this 
marvelously accurate, yet strictly scientific, 
set of books. They make each jaunt in the fields, 
each vacation, mean more than ever before. 
DONT DELAY 
This new edition has been five months in prep- 
aration. It is so far superior to anything 
before offered that it will be sold out long before 
a new edition can be prepared. Owing to condi- 
tions in the ink and paper industries we cannot 
print a new edition in less than six months. 
To give these books added richness and still to make them comfortable to handle and easy 
to thrust into a tramping suit pocket, we have bound this edition in black flexible leather. 
A handier volume for camp, field or motor it would be hard to design. You carry it to 
Nature instead of carrying an image of Nature in your mind, until you get home. 
THE ILLUSTRATIONS: There are 272 
beautiful full-page illustrations in color, 416 
full pages of half-tones and 5120 pages of 
fascinating text. 
NINE HANDSOME INCH-THICK VOL- 
UMES printed on a specially made thin 
coated paper, with gilt tops, silk headbands 
and decorative gold designs on the covers. 
Classified and cross-indexed so that you 
can instantly and unquestionably identify 
any subject in the whole realm of Nature.
