Another Set of Books I Recommend 
The pocket nature library is a beautiful little set of books that tells about the 
birds, the wild flowers, the butterflies and the trees, and in order that my friends 
can have them I purchased a quantity. The volumes are issued in pocket size 
with over seven hundred colored plates and more than a thousand text pages. 
I can sell four volumes bound in full leather for $4.50. 
Nature Study Glasses 
I have had so many calls for a Nature Study 
Glass that I have made a special effort to get 
one best suited for this work. This glass has 
been selected from more than one hundred dif¬ 
ferent makes. It is equally good for the moun¬ 
tains, the seashore, the theatre, for identifying 
birds—or wherever a powerful glass is required. 
This grade sells in many of the stores for 
$15.00, but the purchase of a very large num¬ 
ber enabled me to get a reduction in price, 
which I am turning over to you. 
They have wide angle of view, give a very 
clear image, and show colors and markings very 
distinctly. These glasses magnify 3 diameters 
(9 times); black finish; weight 15 ounces; size 
2 x 3 x 4 ]/ 2 inches. 
Price only $ 9 , prepaid , includes Leather Case and strap.
