In all, there ere full sete of more than § species. “Perhaps the most valuable of all,” sald Mr. Childs at his home to-day, “came from the remote mountain dts- trict of Utah. The nest {s that of Clark’s nutcracker, the only one ever taken as far as the record goes. Miss Bell organized a special expedition to et that nest with the four eggs it con- tained, and to make the exhibit com- plete she got the bird Itself." ‘The nutcracker !s almost the sise and build of a blue Jay, but has light slate-colored plumage, with black wings and a white tall.

Sitth Annual Pure Food Show L) Je] ‘Ze ac wath Paine pew! TeES=— = ™: ————_ =e" Seurs THE BIG STORE ep : Slam avs NE Th OUTTA ~ Our Fifth Annual Pure Food Show, now in its second suc- “cessful week, is a practical demonstration of what'scientific study and research, aided * by skilful manufacture and careful production, has done for the betterment ‘of the diet of the human race. The flood of orders that we are receiving daily in our Grocery Department is ample proof of the purity, freshness and quality of our foods and liquids. The Great Pure Food Mart is constantly, continually and devotedly attached to the production of Pure Foods, and to show to what an extent we carry out our idea of standard quality, we have arranged with Messrs. Queen & Co. to give a bacteriological, microscopical and analytical exhib‘tion of pure and adulterated food products. The Pure Food Lectures delivered by Miss Emma H. Crane, a graduate of the Philadelphia Cooking School, and Chef Ursprung’s New York School of Chefs are leading features of our exhibit, while the manu- facturing demonstration of ‘‘Prince’’ Champagne. America’s leading sparkling wine, is well worth seeing. © The entertainment features were highly appreciated by last week’s visitors, and have been continued. Frank R. Hoy entertains the ladies and children with his clever, laughable Marionette Minstrel Show. Chas, ~ Isaac Newton’s ‘‘Pan-American Exposition” is certainly a stereopticon marvel, and the sweet, classical music given by the New York Ladies’ Symphony Orchestra at the morning and afternoon concerts is a treat not to” be had in the round of everyday business life. To add to the attractions that make this great Pure Food Show worthy of a visit, we have prepared ane other bountiful supply of bargains, of which we print a partial list below: * @ineeny OPPOSITE EHR'CH'S. ) Tomatoes: ‘Quinton Beauty | Cats: Cetes Rolled Oats, very whole- Glives2=.
