and French Suits, combined with the necessary re¬ 
quirements for American service. Particular atten- 
tention has been paid to color. 
Each suit Is thoroughly water-proofed by a new pat¬ 
ent process. The seams and pocket corners being 
securely fastened, the arm holes ventilated, und 
nothing neglected to render the snit perfect in every 
reBpect.

“We were shown, the other day, a new water-proof 
snit. specially ndapted lor spotk-meu, designed ami 
made up by Simmons & Son, of Boston, und to which 
we cult the attention of all brethren of the out-door 
and shore-shooting fraternity, hi cause it meets lhe 
demand of personal comfort and convenience beyond 
anything of home manufacture scan by u« before. 
As a sportsman, we give it our unqualified endorse¬ 
ment, as combin’Tig rile bo 4. points of the English 
suits, and in addition skilfully adopted to the neces¬ 
sities of the American service. It is a most admirable 
aud satisfactory contrivance in color, style, water¬ 
proof quality and capacity. The coat is a marvel 
in thiB latter respect.'*
