This book is destined to be one of the most important that the author has written. Absorbingly interesting in itself, yet its greatest value will lie in the fact that it will lead the reader to realize how blind he has been to the many wonderful things that are happening on every hand. The brook, the pond, the field, the woods, the swamps and even the back yards yield quantities of very interesting subjects for study. This book treats entertainingly of many of these interesting creatures, but its chief aim is to be an "awakener"--to arouse within the reader the desire to go out and verify some of the facts given, or to do some original investigation himself. Such studies develop the senses of perception and observation immensely, and the one who is "alive" to what is going on about him surely is better able to cope with all situations in life than one who sees nothing until it is forcibly brought to his attention. 112 pages; size--5½ × 7½ in. 40 illustrations in color, and black and white. 60c. net; postage 10c.
Page 479 Camera Studies of Wild Birds in Their Homes By CHESTER A. REED, B. S. "CAMERA STUDIES" affords everyone an opportunity for a very intimate study of bird life. A good photograph of an event together with an interesting description of it is the next best thing to witnessing the event itself. "CAMERA STUDIES" has 250 photographs of events right in birds' home. These pictures are selected from the author's collection of over 2000 bird photographs, this being one of the best collections of pictures of free, living wild birds in existence. Many rare and interesting poses are faithfully shown by the camera. For instance, a pair of adult Chipping Sparrows, standing on a branch by the sides of their four young, are engaged in pulling apart a large worm that was too large to be given whole. The stories accompanying these pictures are as interesting as the photographs and above all they are all actual facts. 300 pages, 5½ × 7½ in.; 250 photographs of living, wild birds. Handsomely bound in Cloth, $2.00 net; postage 20c. Western Bird Guide This new book, a companion and uniform in size to the Bird and Flower Guides East of the Rockies, is much more complete and shows every species of bird, BOTH LAND AND WATER to be found IN THE ROCKY MOUNTAINS and westward to the PACIFIC COAST, and from Mexico north to the Arctic regions. EVERY BIRD IN NATURAL COLORS. 320 of them are faithfully pictured, and the text gives the more prominent identifying features, as well as the habits, haunts and all about their nests and eggs. 256 pages, bound and neatly boxed.

Page 480 or equally good for the mountains, seashore or theatre, or whenever a large, clear image of an object is desired. We carefully examined more than a hundred makes of field glasses, to select the ones best adapted for bird study. We found one make that was superior to any other of the same price and equal optically, and nearly as well made as those costing three times as much. They magnify about three diameters, and have an unusually large field of vision or angle of view, making it easy to find a bird or keep him in sight. Price only $5.00 postpaid. CHAS. K.
