•Best" round section rods. Our prices for these round rods average only about 40 per cent, more than the prices 

 asked by any other makers, while the rods are widely known to be incomparably superior. While da hexagonal or 

 any angular) rod can be perfect, we long believed that with proper workmanship and material a really good augula 

 rod could be made. Being much easier and cheaper to make than round rods, we hoped to be able to offer bo Mhos 

 anglers who can not afford to pay the price of our "Best" round rods, a hexagonal rod that would be gooS and 

 serviceable at a moderate price. We are more than satisfied with the success which has attended our efforts, for we 

 are now able to furnish n hexagonal rod that is really worth having, and at a price which is only a trifle in advance 

 by other makers.
