W. H. HOLABIRD 



Would most respectfully announce to his patrons and 

 friends that he is prepared to make 



Shooting and Fishing Suits 



at the above prices. The ten dollar suit is better 

 made than any competitor can offer for the same 

 money. My original design having been appropriated 

 by other manufacturers, I have been compelled to 

 make many changes in the arrangement of pockets, 

 &c, for which 1 have to thank the fraternity at large 

 for suggestions. I believe that I have the 

 BEST SHOOTING AND FISHING COATS IN 



THE WORLD, 

 and respectful -y solicit your orders. I send my new 

 Illustrated Catalogue, 16 pages, free on application. 



Dealers will find it to their advantage to handle my 

 eoods. They are better known and more highly es- 

 teemed than any other make.

THE NEW 



BOSTON 



SHOOTING SUIT, 



Manufactured only by 



G. W. SIMMONS & SON, 



Boston, Mass. 



We offer this season an entirely new design of 

 WATER-PROOF SHOOTING SUIT (made from ex- 

 tra quality duck), in the preparation of which we have 

 been assisted by the advice and suggestions of our 

 best resident sportsmen. 



The design embraces the best points of the English 

 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, and 

 nothing neglected to render the suit perfect in every 

 respect. 



The price has been fixed at $13, to include Hat or 

 Double Visored Cap, Detachable Haverlock, Coat, 

 Vest, and Pantaloons. 



One hundred suits will be kept ready in stock, so 

 that we can furnish to order any size required, at a 

 moment's notice. 



In the Golden Rule (Rev. W. H. H. Murray's paper) 

 the enthusiastic editor writes:— 



"We were shown, the other day, a new water-proof 

 suit, specially adapted for sportsmen, designed and 

 made up by Simmons & Son, of Boston, and to which 

 we call the attention of all brethren of the out-door 

 and shore-shooting fraternity, because it meets the 

 demand of personal comfort and convenience beyond 

 anything of home manufacture seen by us before. 

 As a sportsman, we give it our unqualified endorse- 

 ment, as combining he best points of the English 

 suits, and in addition skilfully adapted to the neces- 

 sities of the American service. It is a most admirable 

 and satisfactory contrivance in color, style, water- 

 proof quality and capacity. The coat is a marvel 

 in this latter respect." 



Persons ordering from a distance need send only 

 the following to be sure of a perfect fit:— Waist Mea- 

 sure, Height, Breast Measure, Length of Sleeve, Size 

 of Head.
