Milam or Frankfort Fishing Eeel — Continued. 



the alarm or click is used. These improvements can be used sepa- 

 rate or together as desired. We wish to call special attention to 

 these important adjuncts, and have their use fully understood, for 

 with their aid you can make a multiplying or click reel at pleas- 

 ure, thus rendering the "Frankfort" doubly valuable. They are 

 operated by sliding disks on side of reel, and do not in the least 

 complicate its working. Made in brass and German silver in sis 

 sizes, costing from $13 to $26 each."— (Milam.)
