Excerpt from The Naturalist's Guide in Collecting and Preserving Objects of Natural History I trust the reader will not by any means keep the teach ings of this book secret, as some taxidermists are wont to counsel, but spread it broadcast among those who would profit by the information I have herein attempted to con vey. It is intended for the naturalist, whoever and wherever he may be and as it comes from a colaborer in the common field, it will, perhaps, be well received. All of Part First is original. In preparing objects of natural history I have in a great degree invented methods of my own, and have not given in this work a single one that I have not tested and proved equal to all oth ers, if not superior. To avoid confusion, I have given only the method which experience has taught me to be the best. In this connection my thanks are due to Mr. E. L. Weeks, whose excellent illustrations will be found to add greatly to the value of the work. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
