THE BUTTERFLY BOOK.

BUTTERFLIES are far more easily

there are as many different species IN
America as there are OF birds, and the
co1ors of the butterflies are more varle-
gated and beautiful.
We have Just published the first site
cessful attempt to make unsclentlhc ma
ture-lovers acquainted with these fasci-
mating creatures. The Butterfly Book
has. besides hundreds OF black and-Whlte
illustrations, 4S colored plates which
exactly reproduce the hues Of over
thousand North American butterflies.
This color photography is really more
remarkable than any color printing that
has been done hitherto. The pictures
have been photographed direct from the
specimens in the authors unrivalled col
lection. which contains almost all the
types" from which the species were
originally named.
DR.. w. ]. Holland, the author, Drec-
tor Of the Carnegie Museum IN PITTS
burg, has. an international reputation
among entomologlsts. and his book IS at
once scientific and popular. It's "digres-
sions" furnish a mass OF entertaining facts
and fancies about butterflies gathered
from the literature OF all ages.
People who buy it by mail have al
ready developed habit OF writing at
once for two or three more ooples-for
friends. Christmas is close at hand, and
its present like nothing else.
